The Rejected Werewolf Princess by Didiadeyemi

Chapter 104

CAMILLA’S PO.V

I had never felt panic like that in my entire life as I rushed towards the gardens. My heart was pounding rapidly in my chest. My vision blurred and my ears rang. It felt like I was in an alternate reality, I couldn’t get a grip on myself and for a second, I didn’t even remember where I was. As soon as I got out of the palace, the sdent of blood flooded my nose and I feared my heart would beat its way right out of my chest.

My feet came to a halt in front of the tree that Christine had said they were playing at. I vaguely noticed the guard who was holding a wailing Aurora in his arms. I couldn’t focus on anyone else except Audrey who was on the ground. Her body was shielded by the physician who was looking over her but there was so much blood. I heard screaming and it took me a second to realize that the sound was coming from me. Ryker was holding me but I could barely feel his hands on my skin. I pushed him off and rushed over to my daughter.

I didn’t care that my dress was sitting on her blood, all I could see was her. Her head was so blo ody. I reached out to touch her and my vision blurred. I felt something hot slide down my cheeks as I stroked back her sweaty hair. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Christine clearing everyone out.

“Your majesty,” there was a sad tone in the physician’s voice and I already knew that I wouldn’t like what he had to say so I shot him a hard look.

“If you aren’t going to tell me that my daughter will wake up in the next five minutes then I suggest you shut up unless you want to lose your head,” I spat and he

immediately went silent. I turned back to my child and cradled her gently in my arms. “Audrey, sweetheart, I’m here now.”

She was so stiff and immobile. This wasn’t the girl I knew, my child was hyper, she was always jumping from one place to another. She was always talking non-stop. She didn’t just lie down like that. It wasn’t in her nature.

I stroked her hair and I could barely see from the tears clouding my vision and dripping all over her skin. “Mummy is here, please get up. I’m not even mad at you for climbing things. I love you my sweet girl.”

I leaned down to place a kiss on her forehead. While trying to do that, I had placed my hand on he ground and accidentally cut it on a sharp rock. I felt the sting but I ignored it because I knew it would heal and cradled her face with my hands. Ryker was next to me and he was holding onto her hand. There were tears in his eyes but he was holding himself together.

I couldn’t explain what happened next if I wanted to, one second, we were just sitting

there and the next, I felt a rush of energy leave me. it left in a rush of wind and I looked down in confusion only to see my blo ody hand glowing. I almost dropped Audrey in surprise. I glanced up at Ryker who was looking at me in surprise. No one dared to speak until the hand stopped glowing. I held my breath wondering what was happening when Audrey sneezed. It was light and barely audible. Her eyes fluttered open and she looked up at me in surprise.
