The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168: JASMINE’S JEALOUSY

"We are done, my lady," Jasmine said.

"You want to go off and cause more trouble, do you not?" Lady Belinda asked. "I have gotten an earful from Alpha Xaden today thanks to all the mischief you caused earlier today."

Before either of them could respond, she silenced them.

"It does not matter. You two will stay and serve as extra hands." Lady Belinda said.

"Jasmine, you will serve Alpha Xaden and the two guests by his side. Fiona you shall serve the other three high ranking wolves to his left the other servants will attend to the others."

Fiona wanted to protest, but Lady Belinda cut her off.

"No excuses. You had better do as I have said! If you test me then I would make sure your punishment is times two of what you got."

And with that, she stormed off.

Jasmine and Fiona were forced to do as they were expected.

Soon, the guests started trooping.

Jasmine held a jar of wine, like Fiona, and they stood by the wall, waiting for the right time to replenish the wine.

"Look at them dressed all fancy," Fiona said. "You would think this a wolf ball."

Jasmine giggled.

Then Jasmine saw Xaden step into the dining room, and her heart stopped.

His dark hair was tied into a neat ponytail, and his simple beard over his nose made him even more handsome.

She felt her knees wobble in such anxiety.

And then what she saw on his arm stopped him.

There was a small feminine hand on his arm, and then she saw it belonged to a smallish girl, probably around the age of twenty-two.

She had lovely brown hair and a dress that complimented her dress.

The woman said something, and he laughed.

Jasmine felt her stomach go ablaze with fire.

"Jasmine, are you alright?" Fiona asked.

"What?" Jasmine asked, not hearing what Fiona had said.

"I asked if you are alright," Fiona repeated.

Jasmine looked at her as if she were speaking some foreign language.

Then she nodded. "Oh yes. Of course, I am fine. Why would I not be?"

"Well, because your face is a mass of red," Fiona said.

Jasmine said nothing as her gaze returned to Xaden and the young girl on his arm.

She swallowed hard as her eyes followed them.

The woman was lovely, and Jasmine, who was always so accommodating to other women, felt jealous.

Even with Aurora, she had not felt jealous. Or even if it was Princess Belle.

But this woman.

Something was different.

She felt something off.

She felt different as if she held a certain power over Xaden.

Like Jasmine had good reason to fear.

Jasmine watched as he led her to a chair, and then his eye made contact with her.

She felt her heart flip right out of her chest, but he stared away from her, and his eyes returned to the beautiful maiden before him.

It was like he had barely even noticed her.

Then he said. "Lady Belinda." _{freēwēbnovel.com}
