Chapter 75

Chapter 75 Unplanned Picnic (Aliana POV)

I was caught completely off guard when Nikolas unexpectedly informed me about the impromptu picnic.

I wasn’t feeling well and had hoped to sleep the entire day.

Despite not wanting to object, I knew it was for the benefit of Piotr and Natasha.

I could only hope that I would start feeling better soon.

Having finished our meal, Ania and I decided to check on Natasha and show her around the area. It wouldn’t be nice if she was cooped up in the room all day until evening.

I quickly got dressed and headed out.

Unfortunately, I bumped into Isabelle on my way, and her puffy eyes indicated that she had been crying.

Judging by the direction she was coming from, it was clear she had just left Nikolas’s office.

I dreaded finding out what had transpired between them. Their relationship had been rocky, and I didn’t need any special abilities to know that I was somehow involved.

“Good morning, Luna,” Ania and I greeted her, and she stopped walking, sniffling.

I wished she would just continue on her way, but since we had greeted her, I couldn’t expect anything else.

Walking past her without acknowledging her would have been disrespectful, and she would have something to report to her son.

Either way, it seemed like trouble was inevitable from the moment I encountered her in the hallway.

“I know what you’re doing, Aliana, and you won’t win. You think you’ve won and taken my son from me, but I won’t let you. I brought him into this world, and he will choose me. I promise you,” she said angrily, shedding tears. I had no clue what she was talking about, but I allowed her to ramble on. I really had nothing to say to her, and her tantrums were getting old.

“You think you can seduce your way to freedom. You believe that being good in bed and pretending to love my son will elevate your status. Think again, Aliana. You can never be anything more than a werewolf whore, and last time I checked, your kind were slaves and will remain so forever. All you’re good for is fucking,” she said, but her words had no effect on me. Clearly, she was upset and venting. It was okay.

She stopped crying and looked at me with pleading eyes.
