I wished for nothing more than having strength. The strength to beat them till they recognized who I was and were able to defend my position, instead of relying on the Alpha.
Maybe, if I was strong enough, then I wouldn’t be facing the humiliation I currently faced.
With a swift wave of her hand, Lila’s energy surged like a gust of wind, knocking me into the air and slamming me hard onto the ground. I didn’t have any strength to resist, so I could only clutch my belly, curling up in pain.
I looked up at Lila with cold eyes. I regretted not having the power to defend myself and my unborn child.
“You’re reckless,” I said in a rasped breath. “Aren’t you afraid the Alpha will find out?”
Lila laughed, unimpressed. A mocking sneer appeared on her face. “The Alpha fell in-love with me at first sight. Everyone knows he ended the war for me. Do you really think he’d care about you, some insignificant mortal?”
Lila’s attendants chimed in with mocking smirks. “Right! Everyone in the realm knows the Alpha only has eyes for Consort Lila. Who do you think you are?”
