Chapter 146 Missed gossip

Beth’s question shouldn’t have surprised Doris as much as it did, but it left her speechless. Half of her

wanted to lie about William and the other half wanted to spill out every detail that her mind had held in

since the moment they first kissed. It was rotten to think bad of her friend-she knew she would keep all of

her secrets. But she couldn’t help but hesitate.

“We… got along fine on the trip. He was admittedly grumpy at times, but that was to be expected.” Doris

nervously laughed and picked at her nails. Beth narrowed her gaze suspiciously and caught on to every

small movement she made. Doris wanted to melt back into the couch and pretend she hadn’t said

anything.(This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com)

“I didn’t ask that, I asked if he made a move on you.” Beth leaned closer as if she was trying to peer into

Doris’s brain for the answer. Doris was only glad she couldn’t see all of the things Doris had been up to

with the handsome prince. “He’s notorious for seducing every pretty maid he comes in close contact with

… don’t tell me he didn’t try anything with you on the trip. You were the only girl!”

Doris felt her cheeks heat instantly. “I-I don’t even-“

“Ah ha! I knew it.” Beth clapped and made Doris flinch. “I knew he would try to get in your pants! I

wouldn’t blame you if you let him, he’s incredibly handsome. I wouldn’t have been able to control myself

either”

“Beth!” Doris gasped. A small sense of jealously built up in her chest at the thought of William seducing

just any maid he wanted. It was true, he could take any maid or servant to bed while she wasn’t around

and he would never feel the need to tell her about it. Another reason it wasn’t wise to give her heart away

to the beast. “We shouldn’t talk like this, it isn’t proper.”

Beth stared at Doris for a moment before she started laughing. “Doris! No one will hear us! | haven’t seen

you in forever, tell me something about the trip! No one here likes to gossip anymore, it’s become so

boring without you here with me.”(This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com)

Doris sighed and pushed her hair behind her ears. “Well, Melody lied about being William’s mate.” She

whispered.

Beth’s eyes grew wide. “No way! How did you find out?”

“I think I always knew she was lying because…” Doris glanced back at the door to make sure it was still

closed before she lowered her neckline to show Beth her mate mark. Beth’s eyes looked as if they were

going to pop out of her head and Doris instantly regretted it.

“What?!” She shouted. Doris clamped her hand down over her mouth to silence her.

“You can’t tell anyone! I don’t want anyone to know-“

Beth wiggled out of her grip. “You have to tell people! You could be his lady!” “I don’t even know if I want

that yet, Beth! I haven’t decided if I want to even be with him… | want to be free, not tied to this place

even more.”

“Doris, you could be pampered and treated with the most respect if you came forward as his mate. No

one would dare mess with you-look how they treat Melody!” Beth gripped Doris’s hands and made her

look at her. “They wouldn’t hurt you anymore, you would be the one to tell them what to do. Isn’t that

better than trying to find a new job out in the world? It’s full of uncertainty out there, but here you would

be treated like a royal.”

Doris shook her head sadly. “I don’t want to tell people what to do or have them clean up after me. I want

to be free-I want to live on my own terms. If I were to accept being his lady, I don’t know what my future

would become. I don’t want to tie myself to a man who might get bored of me and cast me aside when

he finds someone knew to play with, I don’t want that life.”

Beth frowned. “If you were his true mate, he wouldn’t stray. I heard that once wolves find their true mate,

they don’t desire anyone else the same way again. Look at the king, he still hasn’t found (This will

be daily updtaed at www.jar.com) a woman he wants. He can’t find one to be happy with for more

than a week after his mate passed-“ Beth paused and her eyes widened yet again. “Wait… does that

mean you have a wolf inside you?”

“Yes… I do…” Doris hesitated again. “… it was quite a shock. I didn’t realize it until we were on the trip.

William was about to be killed and… something inside me snapped. My wolf came out and saved him.”

“How romantic!” Beth jumped up and squealed. Doris had to force her to sit back down. 1

“Will you keep it down? I’m not ready for everyone to know about it yet!” Doris hissed. She glanced at the

door yet again to make sure no one had cracked it open to listen.

“Oh, yes of course! Sorry, love.” Beth grinned and seated herself again. “It’s just… nothing exciting has

happened like this since we came. I can’t believe you’re mated to the most handsome prince and you

saved his life! He must be crazy about you.” Beth sighed dreamily.

“I don’t know about that.” Doris mumbled. “Enough about men tell me what’s been happening since I was

gone?”

A bit of excitement deflated from Beth as she took in the new subject. “Oh, well… a lot has happened.

The king has suddenly fallen sick and the Luna Queen didn’t want his own sons to know about it until

recently. She’s been trying to act as if she’s the one in control and… honestly it’s been like a military

base here with how she treats everyone. I’m afraid to even show my face, I try to blend into the walls but

she still finds a way to somehow come after everyone.” 1

“Oh my… that sounds awful, Beth!” Doris had always been the type to try and hide into the walls, but

Beth wasn’t. If Beth was wanting to hide, it must have been much worse than Doris first thought. “And

what does Prince Martin have to say about it? He’s the crown prince!”

“He doesn’t stand up to her at all, he lets her act like she’s the ruler of this palace. He hasn’t even truly

acted like he cares that his father is sick. Many of us think it’s because he’s ready to be the king if his

father passes.”

Doris widened her eyes. “What? Surely that can’t be true, he must be keeping his emotions private. I

don’t think he would want his own father to pass just so he can have the crown.”

Beth sighed and shrugged. “I’m not sure his reasoning, but everything has been darker since you guys

left. I feel this strange energy, like something is about to happen but I don’t know when. I can feel

everyone else on edge, but I don’t think they know what for either. It’s like… it’s like there’s a war coming

and we don’t know what to do about it. I’ve never been so frightened just to be alive.”

“Oh my…” Doris swallowed her emotions and clenched her friend’s hands harder. “I can’t believe you’ve

been going through this alone… I’m so sorry Beth.” Beth offered a small, weak smile back as if it was all

she could offer at the moment. “And the king is too sick to sign the amnesty for our freedom now. They

don’t expect him to be better for quite a while.” Beth deflated even more. Doris couldn’t recall a time

when her friend looked so sad, it broke her heart and left her with a thick guilt.

“It will all work out, Beth. It has to. I know times have been uncertain, but now that William is back,

perhaps he can put some order back in this palace.”

“Are you sure about that? He brought rogues here and now I know it’s only going –“(This will be

A loud knock startled them apart. “Beth, you’re due in the kitchens for a night shift. Hurry up!” The voice

demanded. She couldn’t tell who it was, but it made Beth stand instantly.

“I have to go, we can catch up more later.” She said quickly and gathered her uniform. In the candle light,

it appeared as if Beth hadn’t slept in days. Doris stood.

“Is there anything I can do to help, Beth?”

“No, no love. We will just have to talk later.” She squeezed Doris’s hands once more before she left

through the door in a hurry.
