Chapter 59: Chapter 59

“Alpha Oceana.’

“Just get out of my sight before I vent my anger on you and do something we’ll both regret.’

“What!’ she snapped. “Alpha Oceana, I demand respect from you. I am five years older than you. I am your brother’s wife, a princess and heir to the throne, so don’t talk to me the way you talk to your maids.”

“I see.” I chuckled and then furrowed my brows. “Mind your damn business and stop interfering in my matters; don’t act all high and mighty just because you are older than me, grandma. I may look like a teenager, a child to you. Whatever you think of me doesn’t mean I’m not smart. And stop interrupting me and face your damn fake marriage. Who is even feeding you all these lies about being an heir or something?!’ I mocked with a chuckle.

“Alpha Oceana.’

“If you know you want to survive right here in this palace, stay out of my way because, with just a snap of my finger, I could ruin your life in seconds. And you will never be a princess of the realms or be of any importance to this clan. Everyone will treat you like an outcast and even Gerard wouldn't do anything about you. So, when I say mind your own business, I respectfully recommend that you do so and get out of my way.

She smiled. “Are you threatening me, Alpha Oceana?’

“Does it look like I’m threatening you?’ I laughed.

“Your words will not move me because you are not who you carry yourself to be. I don’t know what is wrong with you, and I don’t want to argue with you; I just came to ask you a simple question, and that is, where were you last night?’ She strolled closer to me with a solemn look. “I heard something disappointing this morning, and rumours are going around. What I heard from them was very sickening. Very disgusting to hear and speak of, for such accusations and rumours to be about the princess of the realms. You were with Gérard, disguised in a commoner’s clothes, and please tell me it’s not true.”

“You heard such a thing, then you thought in your head that you needed to see me, and you confronted me.” I frowned and burst out laughing.

Does she know about Gerard and I, this is pissing me off.

“Yes.” She nodded.

“And you come to me and ask me this kind of stupid talk. Are you okay in the head? You heard such rumours, and you came to question me, and besides, who do you think you are? Is it because you are married to Gérard that you think you are the fucking queen or what? Just get the fuck outta here.”

“Still talking disrespectfully, as always, I see, and I just asked you a simple question. You snapped at me, and I wonder if you are Gérard’s sister, or do you have some sort of secret that you don’t want anyone to know?”

I smirked. “Get out of my sight; I have nothing to say to you, and I think you are baffling.” I rolled my eyes at her and attempted to walk past her.

“Do not walk out on me.”

I stopped. “Did you just order me to stop for an outcast like you?”

‘Yes, and you would stop and listen to me.’

I sneered. “Make me.” I hissed.

“Are you perhaps his secret lover, Oceana?” I stopped in my tracks and looked closely at her, but I tried my best to hold back my shock.

What the hell is she talking about? Did Gerard tell her about our secret?

I gritted my teeth. “Are you nuts?” I needed to make her feel so stupid.

“I am not baffled,” she yelled at my face. “I am not stupid either. Who exactly are you to him?”

I laughed.

“He whispers your name every night.” She lowered her voice.

I became dumbfounded.

She came closer to me. “I was so wrong about him. I thought he really wanted me in his life, but his actions became so suspicious, I recalled myself being so happy that he finally came to terms with me. I was so wrong, really wrong.”

“What are you talking about? Are you listening to yourself? You sound baffling for a high and mighty princess that you claim you are.’

Why were her words causing tensions to me?

“I got married to the most handsome Alpha in the realms, but he has feelings for someone else.”

“Wow!’ I nodded with a chuckle. “That’s too bad.’

“He thinks and talks about you all the time. There’s no conversation he doesn’t have that he doesn’t involve you.’ her eyes suddenly got teary with a broken voice. “You are always in the picture, even when we make love. He doesn’t do it, unless he mentions your name or imagines your image in his head. I could sense it all. I’m surprised at why I never realised all these years that Gerard was turning me into you. I was so stupid and thought he loved me. I did a lot of things to make him happy, not knowing he was turning me into you. I did all kinds of cosmetic procedures to fit into what he wanted from me. I had a couple of surgeries, and my wolf nearly killed me.” She shouted tearfully and clenched her fist.

What! Gerard did all that, turning her into me? Come to think of it, she did have a slight resemblance to me.

Just a little.

Am I supposed to be happy or furious?

She’s an idiot.

“Whenever I look at myself in the mirror, I tell myself, this isn’t me. This is Princess Oceana in my body.”

“Shut up, Emily.” I snapped. “I think you are baffling. We are totally different.’

“THAT’S THE PROBLEM.’ She yelled furiously.

What!

“What’s the matter with you, bitch? Will you stop yelling at my face?”

“Tell me something I don’t know about, Oceana, who is Gérard to you?’

“You must be really sick. You need a wolf doctor, probably a therapist.” I mocked.

“No, Oceana, you are the one that needs a therapist because you are having an affair with my husband. Are you perhaps his side piece or something?”

“WHAT?!”

“I’m not crazy like you want me to feel. You are trying to confuse me into thinking that I’m mad. Yet, I’m not mad. You heard me right, that is the fucking problem we are having right now because I got married to someone who isn’t mine.’

“I don’t know what you are saying. You are seriously sick in the head.”
