Chosen By The Moon

Chapter 83

Dylan POV

It was a knock at the door that made me bolt upright in bed. I rubbed my eyes tiredly and looked up to see my handmaiden already staring at me with wide eyes. Why she appeared so startled was completely beyond me. That is until Greta walked in, her eyes immediately squinted in accusation and her words sliced through the silver room.

“What is going on here?” As soon as the woman’s voice began 1 felt the bed jolt from behind me and my eyes followed the movement. A loud shocked gasp left me as the beta shot up in bed, I didn’t think about what I was doing when I scurried out from underneath the covers and crashed to the floor after falling off the edge.

How could we have both fallen asleep like that? It’s a bloody good job the king wasn’t there to see us in bed together, I imagine Lewis would have been killed instantly. Although Greta and my personal handmaiden weren’t pleased at all about my guest.

“There is an explanation for this…” I rushed out as I got back on my feet only to see the beta fidgeting slightly from the opposite side of the bed. He must have gotten out of bed almost as quick as me, maybe even Easter. I wasn’t entirely sure what my explanation was going to be though so I turned to look at Lewis, then I realized I didn’t need an excuse, now technically they we’re my subordinates, but they were also wolves and I would never pull rank to get out of a situation, but beta Lewis definitely could.

The beta was simply trying to help me last night by stopping me from panicking. He was the one person who actually cared what I was feeling. It really was truly laughably how everyone just stood by and watched my treatment unfold

Id even managed to gain weight these past few weeks while being under the betas care, granted I was still only allowed the basic meals, however if I was still hungry, Lewis would see to it that I got more, I felt healthier than I had in a

My face was prodded with about 20 different make up brushes, my head felt like it had been dragged through a hedge as my hair was pulled and brushed, before being adjourned with a thousand Hobby pins, and finally I was shoved into a tightly fitted corset dress
