Chapter 11
Across the manor, Hallia folded sheets inside the laundry room. Her mind drifted back to memories she tried hard to forget.
Adrian's smile.
The promises he made.
" You're my mate, Halia. I feel it."
Three years she believed him.
Until the day he stood before the council and said coldly---
"She seduced me." The words had shattered her.
Not even her adoptive father, Gamma Delan, had been able to defend her against the council's decision.
Not even his adoptive mother's tears lessened their verdict.
Banished.
Just like that.
Discarded like a trash.
Her friends – nowhere to be found to be her witness. To at least testify that Adrian himself claimed her as his fated in front of her college dorm. The video they made was deleted in all of their social accounts. She was lucky she had hidden her savings account from everyone or else she had been a destitute person this past months.
No means to housed herself.
No way to bring food to her table
No way to finished her degree.
They took everything from her, even her personal things, her books she bought using her personal money and yet they said it was from pack funds.
Hallia forced herself back to the present.
Those days were over.
She was just a maid now.
And maybe that was better.
Because believing in wolves had only brought her pain.
