The Rejected Werewolf Princess by Didiadeyemi

Chapter 178

“What do you mean that Reina was missing?” I asked in confusion. “The bodies were burnt weren’t

they? How would you have been able to identify her?”

“The witches wore different robes to signify their positions. There were three levels in the coven. There

were the ser vants who ran errands for the others, they wore simple robes that were burnt to a crisp in the fire. The next level was the coven priestesses. They were involved in the rituals and the sacrifices.

They were bright red robes with some embellishments on them. You could make out the designs, even

in the fire. It wasn’t hard to seeing as they were etched into the fabric.”

“And Reina?” I asked. Her name felt like ash on my tongue and simply mentioning it had the air in the room growing colder. I remembered Lyla’s words about the souls of the other witches and I couldn’t

help but wonder if they were feeling angry about the fact that we were openly speaking about her.

I tried to put myself in their shoes. I would be furious, beyond a reasonable doubt. She not only led them down the wrong path, but she betrayed and killed them all- for power. It was disappointing but it was the way of life. Cruel people did whatever they could to remain in power- it was their way. I blinked away all thoughts of them realizing I was getting swarmed by it and turned back to Briggs.

“Her robe was pure silver as if it had been spun from moonlight. My father said it was embellished with precious stones and it looked like it was worth a fortune. Around her neck, she wore a talisman shaped in a crescent moon that she used to communicate directly with the goddess. After the fire, people stormed the coven grounds in search of her body so they would steal the stones but she and her robes were gone.”

“She set the fire and escaped,” I deduced and he nodded. “So there is a possibility that she is the one doing this to us.”

He shook his head. “It isn’t a possibility, your majesty, it is a fact. If there is anyone who has the power to do this to a person- it is her. Besides, I saw her.”

My eyes widened in shock and I stared at Briggs with my jaw slack. It was comforting to know that I wasn’t the only one who was stunned by his admission. Ryker and Lyla were staring at him with varying
