Chapter 27

RYN

Dressed in a pink girly suit with a pink ribbon in her hair, Chelsea was led to the chair next to me and when she sat and I was hit with her cherry perfume. Crossing her legs, she ignored me and I turned away from her. What in the world was she doing here? Was she summoned too?

I suddenly remembered Maggie's warning concerning Chelsea and the death stare I had gotten when she saw Theon looking at me. Maybe she was here for payback. If so, then I was in real deep shit. A million and one thoughts ran through my mind as I kept looking for Prince Theon and just when I was about to turn to her and ask why she wanted to ruin my life, the doors opened and everyone immediately went silent. Everyone rose to their feet and bowed their heads and I followed suit. Suddenly the room became chillier and when I raised my head, I realized it was the aura of the Alpha King. By the time everyone was seated, I finally saw Prince Theon and Prince Miro taking their seats. I sighed a little in relief.

"Don't look at them." Chelsea said and I turned in time to see the smirk on her face. "They are not going to help you."

"As you all know, we are here to address the issue concerning the disappearance of Alpha Eric but first before we do that, we will be addressing the issue of Miss Ryn Ashmore, the female Elite of the taskforce being accused of stealing from an Alpha! Where is she?" I rose from the seat and as I approached the table, my legs felt like jelly. I finally met Prince Theon's eyes and strangely felt a bit at ease. "Your Majesty." I bowed from my waist.

The stern looking King glowered at me. His eyes and the smug look on his face reminded me of Miro and that once more made me feel uneasy. "So you stole from an Alpha. That is a highly punishable offense, one that could get kicked off the taskforce." "She didn't steal anything."

'I wasn't asking you, Prince Theon." The Alpha King snapped and the temperature in the room drastically dropped further making me feel chilly. I subtly glanced at Theon but couldn't find any trace of emotion on his face.
