The Lycan's Forbidden Mate novel Chapter 3
Kapitel 3: Dinner preparations
“Gods! What in the world was that?!” Ophelia mumbled, raking her fingers through her hair and pacing around the room, trying to process what had just happened to her.
She wasn’t stupid, of course! Her gut was constantly telling her that it was him, despite her best efforts to deny it because it was simply impossible.
Why so suddenly? Why did she meet him in such an unusual spiritual way?
She was actually very motivated to kill him right now. Very, very much.
Ophelia groaned and fell onto her bead, burying her face in it. “Why?! Why?! Why?!” Her screams were muffled.
When she heard a sharp knock on the door, she gasped and raised her head, her golden eyes squinting at the bed board. She was clearly not in the mood to go to the family dinner; she had lost her appetite.
“Who am I going to tell about this? If I tell River, he’ll pretend to believe me…”
Another set of knocks cut off her words. She jumped off the bed, frowning, and stomped towards it, opening it with the intention of launching on the person and beating him or her to a pulp.
At the level of her current situation, she didn’t care if it was one of her siblings or her parents; she just wanted to vent her rage.
“Oh my!” Vera, her beautiful and elegant cousin, let out a dramatic scream. “You’re not even dressed! You look horrifyingly disgusting!”
Ophelia stepped back, her eyes rolling. She didn’t want to scar her snobbish cousin’s beautiful face, who was a real overdramatic being.
“That look you have on your face right now is making you look even worse, darling, so stop it.” Vera spoke with a phony elegant accent while disapprovingly waving her hands at her.
“Aren’t you supposed to be dead or worse?” Ophelia deadpanned.
Vera scoffed in disbelief, walked into the room past Ophelia, and burst into an annoying laughter that irritated Ophelia.
“Your room is still as plain as ever. You, unlike me, have no taste.” Vera, as usual, extolled herself while demeaning others. “I mean, what’s with the big book shelf?” She finished with a scoff.
“Father invited the entire family huh?” Ophelia inquired dully, turning to face Vera with a completely uninterested expression.
“You should cherish this moment because it will be the last time you will see your entire family.” Vera said this with an elegant tone and a mocking smile.
“Has the dinner begun?” Ophelia asked, a tight smile on her face, suppressing the desire to strangle Vera.
“Unfortunately no, you are the only one who is missing, and I was sent here to dress you up.” Vera looked at her with disgust as she spoke.
Ophelia returned the disgusted glare, and as the glares intensified, tension rose between the ladies.
