The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 115

Chapter 115: I WAS ONLY FUCKING YOU

My lips dropped in utter shock

"Y-your maiden?" I asked, confused as to what they were referring to.

The high priestess looked at me, her face still solemn.

I realized I had blurted in the middle of a ritual and looked down at the floor.

"His maiden." The high priestess said to me.

"W-who me?" I asked in surprise.

"But of course." She said. "I see no one else around."

"No, he just brought me because I couldn’t walk well," I said.

The man coughed, and then I realized what I had said.

"N-no, I don’t mean I couldn’t walk because of anything we did. I just." I realized I was talking too much, so I stopped and took a deep breath. "He was just assisting me. I’m not the maiden."

"But you are." She smiled as she gave away her left palm and one of the priestesses handed her a bowl of blood. Your entire presence is radiating. Can’t you feel it yourself? You’ve been bestowed with the spirit of the goddess, and because of your sacrifice and mating, we’ve been given great power." _{frёewebηovel.cѳm}

The high priestess dipped her hand inside the bowl and drew the blood on my forehead.

"If you hadn’t, we would have plunged into great winter and had our powers taken from us, " she said, and then she dipped her finger again into the blood, this time putting it on Xaden.

I looked up at Xaden, hoping he would explain that I was not the maiden.

But he said nothing, and for a split second, it occurred to me that I probably was her.

Then, one of the high priestesses came around with a robe for Xaden.

"I believe I can walk now, my lord," I said.

But he ignored me, and then the Robe was placed for him regardless of him holding me to him.

Then, the high priestess made some incantations, speaking words and using a language I did not understand.

Then, when he was done, he held unto her firmly.

I saw the king and Queen looking at me, and then memories of how I had seen the King kissing the Queen’s mother flashed through my mind, and I turned my face away to hide in the nook of Xaden’s arm.

The high priestess continued with the incantations, and then I heard hoofs.

I saw none other than Aurora approaching us with a few of the men from the pack.

About six of them all in all.

They rode down towards us, and Aurora got off her horse and walked towards the crowd.

She was about to say something when the high priestess used their spears to block her way.

She turned and saw the high priestesses making her incantations.

Then, when she saw us, her mouth dropped in shock.

I blushed as I saw her gazing at Xaden at me and how I was held firmly in his arms.

She was unable to say a word.

"You have given us the beauty of nature again. Renewed our world till the next halo festival. We are forever grateful for your sacrifice." The high priestess concluded.
