Once Leah had left Jasmine went back into the room.
She looked at her miserly dress and decided that she needed to wear sothing else.
She went through the wardrobe searching for a dress.
They were all filled with extravagant and outlandish dresses.
Dresses fit for won of the elite.
Won who were not like her.
She finally found a simple pale blue dress.
She tried it on and despite the fact that it showed off her cleavage, it was better than all the other dresses that she could swear would have closed her breast’s with the slightest inconvenience.
She brushed and braided fire hair into a single braid.
Then she looked at herself in the mirror.
Never in her wildest thoughts did she ever believe that she would have looked this pleasant in her father’s pack.
She sighed heavily and built the confidence within herself and then walked out of the room.
She walked away towards the hallways.
She could still rember the way through the pack house.
As she walked down she looked at the familiar doors, at the room she had cleaned and servants hurried past.
There were a lot of sounds of people working on the pack to rebuild it.
The servants who saw and recognized her, bowed their heads in sha as they walked on ahead to their work .
She finally reached the dinner hall and there were guards standing at attention.
"I am Jasmine. Alpha Xaden had sent for ." She said.
They sniffed her, opened the doors and stood out of her way.
"Thank you." She nodded.
They ignored her and once she stepped into the dinner hall she saw Xaden seated with Erik having a al.
"Lord Xaden." She curtseyed.
He gave her a faint smile. "Jasmine how are you?"
"Fine my lord."
She wanted to ask how his cut was and then Erik bead at her.
"Jas Jas." Erik said winking at her. "Good to see you looking swell."
"Thank you." She blushed. Then she turned to Xaden. "You sent for ."
"Yes I did." Xaden said and then motioned for a seat beside him. "Take a seat."
Jasmine was wary and uncertain but she did as he asked and sat down.
He snapped his fingers and then servants ca bringing in als before her.
Once they set them down he said. "Eat."
Jasmine was very surprised and confused.
Erik and Xaden resud eating and discussing matters while Jasmine just sat there.
And then Xaden turned to see she was seated frozen and her face Pale.
"Would you not eat?" He asked her.
She shook her head.
And then it occurred to him that she perhaps thought that he had poisoned her food .
He took her spoon and had a bite of her food and then handed it back to her.
"Your food is not poisoned. Only a coward would succumb to poison." He said . "Now eat."
She had no choice but to do as he had asked.
She ate the food and it was delicious.
Maybe he wanted to fatten her before he finally be headed her like everyone else.
Then Kire ca into the room.
He jumped on Jasmine Excitedly.
"Bad boy co down." An annoyed Erik reprimanded him.
Kire whimpered and did as he was instructed.
"Please don’t be so hard on him." Jasmine said. "I am sure he did not an to upset you."
"He has refused to return back to ." Erik said slightly annoyed. "Of course he has upset ."
Kire shood behind Jasmine whom he knew would Provide him protection.
"But why doesn’t he want to return to you?" Caden asked confused.
Erik shrugged. "I have zero idea. Hopefully it is a phase and he will co back to ."
At that mont the door was opened and Jessica ca in.
Jasmine stiffened.
"Good morning Alpha Xaden." She greeted.
"Anna." He said. "You look well. How did you sleep last night?"
She gave a weak smile. "Not the best I have had but it will do. And I an considering the events of yesterday."
"Call Xaden:" he said. "There is no need to refer to with my title if we are siblings."
She turned to Erik and her face flushed red.
Jasmine took note.
"And you are?" Jessica asked him with a tone of curiosity.
"No proper introductions were made yesterday." He said. "Anna this is Erik. He is my gamma and second in command."
She curtseyed. "It is an honor to et you."
"I feel the sa way." Erik said.
And then Anna turned and saw Jasmine.
Anna’s face which had been blooming and seemingly happy fell once she set eyes on Jasmine seated on their table .
"What are you doing here?" Anna demanded harshly.
"Good morning." Jasmine greeted.
"I asked what you were doing here." Anna said completely ignoring her greeting.
"Jasmine is here because of ." Xaden said. "I understand that you might not be fine of her because of what her family and blood line did to us."
"Not just that." Anna said glaring at Jasmine. "She was awful to in the pack. She hated from the start and did such awful things to I can not even begin to speak on them."
Erik rose a suspicious brow up at her. "Were you not raised as their daughter and they kept their own illegitimate daughter as a servant?"
Anna began to stutter. "Y..yes. That is true. But you see I did not really care for all the things that were offered to . But Jasmine hated so bad because of what her parents did and she turned on . She hated for taking her place and when she was ant to serve , she would hurt and punish . I was unable to defend myself."
Xaden looked at Jasmine.
"Is this true?"
"No." Jasmine said slightly annoyed. "it isn’t."
"Are you calling a liar?" Anna demanded.
"No. I simply denied what you said about treating you badly." Jasmine said.
"You are calling a LIAR!" She scread.
"ENOUGH!" Xaden slamd hard down on the table.
