The Rejected Werewolf Princess by Didiadeyemi

CAMILLA'S POV

Ryker told me all about his plan to speak to Briggs and while that seemed like the smartest choice, we still had to wait for Briggs to arrive and in the meantime, I thought about how I was going to make sure everyone in the palace was safe if Reina decided to attack. The easiest choice would have been to just ensure that everyone left the palace but that would have meant a lot of explanation which I was unprepared to do.

“What do you think?” I asked Christine who was seated opposite me. She had a book open in her lap as she looked up at me.

“Think about what?”

“How do I get Riley and Damien out of here?” I explained and her mouth formed an o. “Also, how do I get the girls out? I don’t want anyone getting hurt again.”

I don’t know what she heard in my voice, but it had her sighing as she put her book down. “if you want them to leave you could just ask but I dont think it is the smartest choice.”

“What do you mean?”

“As at right now, we don’t know where exactly she is. She could be waiting for you to send one of them out and she will take them,” I opened my mouth to protest but she held up a hand to stop me. “I didnt say she would, I just said that she could. I think they are safer here than anywhere else. At least within these walls, we can keep a close eye or them. What harm could possibly come to them here?”

“You don’t understand,” I whispered. “The last time she got them both, they were within these walls. She had someone in here taken them to her”

A dark look crossed her face as she realized what exactly I was talking about. She reached over the table and held m: hand in hers. I knew she wanted me to look at her but I couldn't, if I did, I knew there would be tears in my eyes. I didn’t want to think about that situation.

It had never left my mind but I had somehow managed to push it into the recesses where I wouldn't have to worry about it.

“Camilla,” she whispered softly but I shook my head. “He willingly betrayed you, I know that, but no one here will betray you. Your children are safe. The girls are safe. If I have to watch them every day of my life then I will but nothing will happen to you.”

“No, you can’t do that. You have more important things to do. I could watch them.”

“You have important things to do as well,” she reminded me. “Look, if you want to keep them safe then I suggest tha you leave them with Riley and Damien. You get to keep everyone you are worried about together.”

“Riley and Damien don’t know what we are facing.”

“Then tell them,” she shrugged as if it were the most important thing in the world. “You don't have to tell them everything but you should tell them. They will understand and they will be willing to help. It is one week, Camilla, and you cannot do it all by yourself. You need to take help.”
