Rejected, And Became A Heiress

Chapter 37

Chapter 37

"There's been an accident, sir! I need to discuss with you, maybe in private-"

I interrupt the butler with a single word, "Who?" My body is deadly still.

My butler glances at Lilia quickly before leaning into me closely "Cara Wilson."

All breath escapes from my lungs.

...CARA?!

An accident.

Is she hurt?

Is she alive?!

Grey paces in my mind, howling and growling.

"How serious?" I ask my butler.

"I'm not sure, sir, but I hear it's not looking up." He glances back towards the crowd, clearly uncomfortable with being the center of attention at a moment like this.

"Get a doctor on the phone. NOW!" I order roughly.

"Alaric!" Lilia's voice sounds like something halfway between a plea and a demand.

I run a hand through my hair and turn to face the crowd. Hundreds of wolves have gathered here today to witness this wedding.

But they won't get to.

"Wedding's cancelled!" I yell into the crowd simply.

"WHAT?!"

"What did he say?"

"Cancelled?!"

"This has never happened before!"

The outrage from the crowd is palpable. People are leaving their seats en masse; some heading towards the exit, some towards the altar. The pack elders are rushing towards me, no doubt trying to change my decision. 15:30 Wed, Jan 1 G Gu

Chapter 24

All the color has drained from Lilia's face, and, for just a moment, it looks like she's seen a ghost.

Then a flash of realization crosses her face, and a strange smile its her lips. "Cara's been in an accident." She whispers to herself. She sounds... She sounds happy "What have you done?!" I yell to her.

Grey is swearing and cursing her in my mind. His words are obscene enough to make a sailor blush. His snarl rips through my body, like he wants to take over.

I mentally tell my wolf to get a hold of himself. Shifting now would take everything from bad to worse. No, we need to talk to the doctor.
