Sitting on a circular lengthy table were Bianca and Queen Rebecca as they both engaged in a deep conversation.
“I am more than happy that the girl was nowhere to be found,” Bianca said with a blithe tone.
“Hmmm…… She learned her lessons that she doesn’t fit in here,” Queen Rebecca boasts, earning a beaming smile from Bianca.
Bianca sips her coffee with a satisfied smile settling on her lips, today was her happiest day if she could say.
She felt like her once long-awaited prayer had been granted by the moon goddess.
Placing her coffee on the table and with folded arms, Queen Rebecca said, gaining her scrutiny.
“But Ryan hasn’t been himself since the incident,”
“Yeah!” Bianca said sadly.
“He doesn’t want to see anybody…….. He always locks himself in his room if he is not out there looking for her,” Bianca said with a sigh.
“What did that girl do to him to make him so attached to her?”
“I have no idea,” Bianca shrugged.
“But the main thing is that she is gone and gone for good,” Bianca winked.
“You are there,” they both laughed.
A comfortable silent fall between them as they sipped their drinks.
Nonetheless, still laughing and discussing, the door was pulled open snapping their gaze toward the door. The door was pushed forward as Juliet walked in.
A sickening stare settled on Bianca’s face upon beholding the sight of the person amidst them.
Queen Rebecca sat till and sipped her drink from her cup without uttering a word.
Juliet’s heel makes a clicking sound against the titles as she strides inside with her head held high.
“Good day Queen mother,” she bowed before sparing Bianca a glance.
They both glared at each other but a mischievous smile slipped into Juliet’s lips before she looked away.
“You welcome, Juliet, come and join us,” Queen Rebecca said with a blissful smile.
“I came for a better reason and I won’t waste time,” she blurted before taking a seat opposite them.
Queen Rebecca and Bianca exchanged a look before they both focused their eyes on her and motioned for her to speak up.
“I am here because of the plan,” she declared.
“The plan has been executed, thanks for your concern but it is no longer needed,” Bianca sneered with a taunting smile.
“It has been executed but do you two have any slightest idea on who might have carried on the mission?”
“I worked hand in hand with you people and all you pay me back with is that my presence is no longer needed again!!” She banged her hand furiously on the table, flinching the both of them.
“Wga…… what are you talking about?” Queen Rebecca asked.
“Behave yourself!” Bianca warned viciously.
They both bared out their canine as they glared at each other with daring eyes.
“Will you two stop this nonsense?”
“Since my presence is no longer needed, I think that Ryan needs to know where his lovely girl is being held captive,” Juliet declares openly with a devilish smile lingering across her lips.
“What are you talking about?” Bianca said in a muffled voice, earning a glare from Juliet.
“You two are here jubilating over something you have no idea about!!” She yelled.
“I should be the one getting all the hail and cheers but here you two were telling me in my face that my concern is not needed again!!”
“Why will you get any hailing?” Bianca snarled.
“Wait!” Queen Rebecca said with a thoughtful look.
“Are you trying to say that you are the one that executed the plan?”
“Yes,” she replied with a satisfied smile.
“That’s not possible!!!” Bianca snapped.
“Then ask yourself how on earth she went missing!” Juliet snapped back in the same energy.
“This is unbelievable……… I can not believe such!!” Bianca maintained.
“That’s true, Bianca, come to think about it,” Queen Rebecca, reaping a shocked gaze from Bianca.
“How did she suddenly disappear?” Queen Rebecca questioned, attaining a smirk from Juliet.
“Juliet here is right and she deserves applause for solving something that we both couldn’t handle,”
“No!…. No!” Wiggling her head, Bianca said with doubt.
“She is not telling the truth!” She pointed at Juliet.
“Then how did she go missing?”
“I don’t know but she is lying,” Bianca countered with a determined voice.
“Just calm down, Bianca, don’t allow your jealousy to ruin things,” Queen Rebecca asserted.
“What!!” Bianca was aghast, earning a propitious smile from Juliet.
“That I am jealous, Queen mother,” she blinked back her tears as her teeth grind furiously in anger.
Juliet adjusts very well with a taunting smile on her lips as she stares at Bianca with a triumphant gaze.
Bianca gulped angrily and looked away.
“I am not here to tell whether you are jealous or not, Bianca, I think that we should commemorate Juliet for a job well done,” she proclaimed.
“Where is the so-called girl, Juliet?” Queen Rebecca asked with a satisfied look.
“My boys are holding her in a place at the deepest part of the wood, far from people’s sight or their reach,” she boasts.
A smile fell on Queen Rebecca’s lips, shimmering her eyes.
“Excuse me,” Bianca said with gritty teeth.
“What is wrong, Bianca?”
She stood up and walked away from the room ignoring the Queen mother.
“Leave her I am sure that she will be alright very soon,” Queen Rebecca waves it off with her hands.
“Fine!” Juliet brushed it off.
“I am very proud of you…….. You did a great thing for me,” she appreciates.
“How can I reward you?”
“Ryan,”
“Ryan, how?” Confusion fell on Queen Rebecca’s face.
“Isn’t it obvious that I want your son……. Wait! You think that I am doing all this for nothing in return?” Juliet asked with a furrowed eyebrow.
“But…. About Ryan, he is for Bianca,”
“Bianca!!” Juliet snapped as she inched forward, “The same girl that couldn’t come up with a solution,”
“But she………
“There is no but…….” Juliet hushed her.
“Take two things, Queen mother,” she spits the last word when sitting back in her chair.
“Either you find a way to make me the queen with Ryan as my husband or risk your son knowing about your evil agenda,” she finished with a vicious smile.
“But you are already a luna at bright moon pack,”
“With a lame man!…. Oh! No, thanks,” Juliet dismissed with an arched eyebrow.
“So?” She drawled.
“But…..
“Your time starts tickling now!” She cuts her off as she keeps tapping her fingers at the table when mumbling out numbers.
“You have four seconds to make up your mind and have me make the girl vanish and you will have a relaxed mind,”
“Your choice determines what my next move will be, and I bet you won’t like to annoy me!!” She threatened.
Despite how calm her voice seemed, the danger in it couldn’t be mistaken.
Queen Rebecca was speechless as she pondered on the issue, she is a fierce woman with Lycan but right now this little manipulative she-wolf had her at her feet.
She loves her son and won’t like anything that could jeopardize their relationship.
“1….. 2……3…..
” Fine! ” Queen Rebecca gulped, amassing an arched eyebrow from Juliet.
“I accept……. I will make you his queen and wife,”
