The Rejected Werewolf Princess by Didiadeyemi

Chapter 238

CAMILLA'S POV

“Let's go over this one more time, please,” I announced and if Ryker wasn't as stressed as I was, he would have rollec his eyes. “I need to be sure that we are all on the same page.”

“Camilla,” Ryker somehow managed to sound exhausted and patient at the same time. “You know the plan, everyone knows the plan. We are fine, I can assure you of that.”

“What if we mess up.”

“We won't,” he assured me before looking up at Juan. It was only the three of us leaving. It was a stupid idea but it was also the safest way to ensure that no one else got hurt.

The plan was simple, we were going to pretend to hide the dagger somewhere in the hopes that she would follow us. Ryker had demanded to hold the dagger because he believed she would go after whomever was holding it first. I didn't have the heart to tell him that I didn’t believe she would. I had a gut feeling about the way things were going to go but I couldnt be sure and I didn’t want to jinx it

“We will be fine,” Ryker assured me and although I didn’t quite believe him, I nodded. “The horses are poised and ready. Are you sure you want to do this?’

“I have to be there if we want to make this more believable,” I shrugged but that wasn't the answer he wanted. He grabbed my shoulders and forced me to turn to him.

“Do you want to do this?” he punctuated each word slowly and I sighed before nodding. It was better me than anyone else and somehow, I just knew that I had to be there. “Good, let us go and kill a witch.”

We walked out hand in hand and he helped me onto my horse. Things seemed to be going smoothly and we were prepared to leave when I saw Damien rushing out of the palace. He was heading straight for us and I glanced over at Ryker uneasily. He stayed next to me because neither of us knew what Damien wanted. We also weren't sure whethel Reina still had her claws in him or not.

“Thank the goddess I managed to catch you,” he managed out as he tried to even his breathing. “I just wanted to apologize for what happened before. I-"

“Damien,” I cut him off. “We are on a very time sensitive quest. If you want to apologize then you don’t need to, you are forgiven. If that will be all then-"

“No, I wanted to tell you that I felt her in my head,” he dropped his voice to a whisper before adding. “The witch. I don’t know how to explain it, it was like someone else was digging into my mind and controlling my movements. I was almost watching myself move.”

“What did she make you do?” I asked slowly and he looked around to ensure that no one was listening before stepping closer to us.
