Defy The Alpha(s) novel Chapter 350

Chapter 350: Queen Seraphira

"Can we talk?" Violet said to Lila, and suddenly, the spirited conversation Daisy and Ivy were having died off. Just like that. They were very aware of the tension between their two roommates lately, and Violet suddenly confronting Lila like this? Yeah, it wasn’t going to end well.

"Sure," Lila said without hesitation.

"My room," Violet replied, already walking away and Lila followed her immediately.

Once inside, Violet shut the door and locked it for privacy. Not that it would do much. Ivy and Daisy would probably eavesdrop anyway.

Violet turned to face her. "So what’s your problem?"

"What do you mean?" Lila asked with a blank look, like she had no clue what this was about.

"Don’t play cheeky with me, Lila. You know exactly what I’m talking about. What’s your deal? At the beginning, you were all over the idea of me being with the cardinal alphas. You literally encouraged me. And now, when I actually have something real with them, you’re suddenly acting hostile? Telling me to break up with them? Does this look like a game to you? What do you take me for, a fucking player? What the hell is your problem?"

"My problem is I never thought you’d actually take me seriously!" Lila snapped back.

"What?!"

"Yes, I encouraged you. But it was all an act. I was trying to blend in. To get close to you. And what better way for a Fae like me to blend in at this academy than to act like some average teenage girl who’s crazy about the cardinal alphas like every other human here?"

"You could’ve just been honest from the start. Instead of this back-and-forth whiplash you’re giving me now," Violet argued.

"Oh really?" Lila sneered. "I guess if I had walked up to you on our first day and said: ’Hi, I’m Lila Meadows. I’m secretly a Fae and the guardian your real mother sent to find and protect you because you’re a hybrid Fae princess whose powers were sealed away so your evil werewolf father wouldn’t use them’—you’d believe me, right?"

Oh shit. Violet froze. She did have a point.

Lila kept going. "You were so cold when you first arrived. But that was fine. I didn’t give up. I kept playing the lovely human roommate role just to get close to you. And at first, you hated the cardinal alphas. I thought that was perfect. I didn’t expect you to flip the script. Yes, I literally forgot hate and passion were just a breath apart. And now look at you. You’re not just with one of them. You’re with all four."

She paused, her voice dropping. "And that is a disaster waiting to happen once they find out who you really are, and the fact you’re the biggest threat to their throne."

"And how am I the biggest threat to their throne?" Violet demanded, stepping closer. "Who am I, Lila? Who is my father? Is it Alpha King Elijah?"

That was the first legit thought that came to her mind, considering Elijah was the reigning king and had promised to make one of the cardinal alphas heir. If she were to suddenly appear, it would mess everything up and the packs would certainly not like that. But Elijah was sterile and that ruled him out completely.

"Is it the former Alpha King Angus? Dear God, is Micah my brother?"

But then it hit Violet again, Angus was dead. Long dead. So there was no way he fathered her. Unless, of course, he faked his death for reasons best known to him and secretly had her. What the actual hell? _{freewёbnoνel.com}
