Princess Sophia''s POV
The day arrived when Aurora informed my parents that she was going to return and preparations were in ce. After spending a lot of time with Alpha Bane, she finally decided that it was time toe back to our Pack. I guessed that the Alpha had no use for her anymore and decided to send her back to us. Good riddance. I knew it was only a matter of time before Alpha Bane would see her for who she was... a nobody.
My parents couldn''t let it just be a low-key urrence. Instead, they did all they could to make it look more important than it was.
Not that I thought it was important at all. It was just the arrival of Aurora... Nothing more than that. It wasn''t like she was someone special or important. She was the same miserly maid that ran errands for all of us back in the same Pack. All those arrangements and preparations just served to make me very annoyed and angry and I wished there was something that I could do to stop it but I couldn''t see any.
The whole pce was buzzing and it irked me. There was no decorum anywhere as the maids and guards kept moving from one ce to another carrying out one task or the other as instructed by the Luna or the Alpha King.
What made it even worse was that I had never been treated that way before by my parents. I''d gone to several Packs on official duty as sent by my father but I had never received a wee like this. No one had ever thrown me a party nor prepared avish feast in my honour; not even when I was still regarded as. Their real daughter but just on knowing that Aurora was their child, they already nned something as huge as that.
It served more to fuel the rumours about her being their real child and me, being born by someone else. It served to substantiate the rumours and further made the task of changing things even harder. I couldn''t let things get out of hand. I had to do something about it. First things first, I had to go see my mother who was in the kitchen.
I walked to the kitchen very angrily and saw a lot of maids running helter-skelter trying to fix something up. I saw my mom also. She was organising the maids and showed them the type of meals that she wanted them to prepare.
There were ingredients for the preparation of assorted dishes only fit for royalty and they were doing that for a mere servant. It was so shameful and disgusting that they could all go that low. If I had my way, I would have smacked the faces of all of those maids.
I scoffed and walked straight to my mother and bowed on getting to where she was. "Why are you going through all this stress just because of the arrival of one person?" I asked her, as she turned to listen to me. "I mean, we all just arrived some days ago to this Pack. We were all together. The Alpha, the Luna and the Princess And no one received us this way. The maids and the guards didn''t wee us like this. Why are you doing that for Aurora?" I asked, rolling my eyes to express my dissatisfaction.
As soon as I got done speaking to her, the Luna Queen queen turned to me looking a bit shocked to hear my words. I too was shocked that she was shocked. It was clear that I wasn''t on good terms with Aurora. I also thought the idea to do all that was very ridiculous but I couldn''t say that to her myself.
"This person isn''t just an ordinary person," she exined. "Aurora is my daughter and this is the first time that I''ll be acknowledging her as the Princess so she deserves every bit of whatever we''re doing here. I need you to understand that."
The statement hurt me even more, especially when she referred to her as her daughter and as the princess. It felt so bad as my chest tightened in immense jealousy.
I said nothing after that, choosing to leave the kitchen instead so that they could continue doing the nonsense that they had decided to waste their time on. There was nothing else that I could do as I was pretty convinced that there was no way that she was going to change her mind.
Just as I was just about to leave the kitchen in shame, I saw one of the maids rush into the kitchen with so much speed that I suspected that she bore a piece of news with great importance.
"The Princess is here," she said whilst panting hard. "Princess Aurora has arrived!"
The Luna Queen and the rest of the maids squealed as I covered my ears with my hands not wanting to let their noise pollute my ears. Before I could know what was going on, the Queen rushed past me in a hurry so she could go and wee Aurora. Then the maids followed suit, except the ones who were assigned to different jobs in preparation for the grand entrance of the stupidest Princess wannabe that had ever existed in Aurora.
I rolled my eyes in disgust but decided to follow them. I had to know exactly what was going on, especially with that swine back in the Pack.
I was so angry and disgusted, but I just had topose myself or else I would go nuts.
I walked out of the kitchen and headed outside with several thoughts in my head. One of the major thoughts that kepting over and over in my head was how to get rid of her. I needed to be rid of that girl by any means possible. I just had to find out the means that were going to work well.
