Chapter 166 Audrey
Claudia-my mother-insisted on special ordering a dress for me to wear.
The deep blue fabric of my liquid-silk-gown shimmered in the sun, silver threads catching the light as I moved-a nod to my true nature as the Silver Star. My hair was pulled up into an elaborate updo, braids wound around my head like a halo. My silver streak was on prominent display, the entire strand braided and wound with silver threads so that it shimmered like my dress. "You look beautiful."
I glanced up to see Edwin standing in the bedroom doorway. Tonight, he wore an all black suit with a dark blue tie and pocket square that were made of the exact same fabric of my gown.
If I was the moon with my silver and blue, then he was the night sky. With his hair neatly gelled to the side, one curl coming loose across his forehead no matter how hard he tried to keep it swept back, he looked even more handsome.
"I feel like a doll," I said, looking back at myself.
I pursed my lips, shaking my head. It was a beautiful gown, and the stylist that Claudia had also insisted on hiring had done an amazing job on my hair and makeup. But tonight wasn't a typical party-tonight, I would be formally accepted into Claudia's family
Into the Alpha family of Silverbite pack, of which I was now the sole heir.
Edwin shook his head and strode up to me, wrapping his arms around me from behind. His warmth spread through me, fingers pressing solidly through the thin silk of my gown.
"Well, you look like a pretty doll," Edwin said, h**ing his chin over my shoulder.
I stuck my tongue out, unable to stop myself from chuckling. "It's not too much, is it?"
Edwin shook his head again. "Tonight is a big night. You should look like a princess. Isn't this what you wanted, anyway?
I took a deep breath and shut my eyes for a moment. It had been a week since Fiona's birthday party-the fateful night I'd discovered her past, revealed my identity as the Silver Star, and found out that my biological mother was Claudia
"Yes," I said. "But I can't help but feel a bit conflicted about all of it."
"Why?" Edwin c**ed his head. "You're set to become Silverbites sole heir. It's a dream for thousands of young people." My shoulders tensed just at the thought. Even though Claudia still recognized Fiona as her daughter, she no longer recognized her as the heir to Silverbite-one part of her punishment for everything she had done.
That meant that I truly was the sole heir. And I couldn't help but feel a bit... guilty, although I didn't know why.
I said. "It is a dream. A dream that would have been Fiona's reality if it weren't for all of this. Sometimes, I can't help
but at the end of the day, she dug her own grave. You're the one who had your life stolen from you. It's your right to take it back.
