The Alpha King's Witch Bride Chapter 111: I Know Your Secret

The person walking into the dining room turned out to be Celine who had a smug expression on her face as she went up to her mother and wrapped her arms around her neck in a hug.

"Good morning, mother. So sorry I didn’t check on you earlier today. I’ve been busy with so errands." Celine muttered with a cheery smile before she made herself comfortable by sitting beside her mother.

I watched the scene with a raised eyebrow, wondering why Celine seed so... Relaxed.

anwhile, her mother patted her daughter’s chin before speaking with a proud smile. "Oh, my dear daughter. I’m so glad I’m seeing your face now. It’s a boost to my mood after getting it ruined by so... Low lives."

She glanced at with disdain before she made a gagging expression.

I was tempted to drug her food with a potion that would make her gag out everything in her stomach, as well as her intestines, for good asure, but I held myself back and placed my attention on my food instead.

However, as I used my fork to play around with the mini shawarmas in front of , Celine said sothing that took off guard.

"I hope you’re enjoying your al, Odessa."

I froze, a cold shiver running down my spine as I raised my head and stared directly at her.

Celine had a seemingly innocent smile on her face, taking a sip from a glass of wine first before she continued. "What? I’m genuinely curious since I helped the maids with the cooking today."

Each word she said seed to add more to the fear that gripped as I plastered a smile on my face, my face dripping with cold sweat.

’Goddess, don’t tell this bitch poisoned .’ I thought to myself as I tried hiding my shaky hands.

anwhile, Mada Greyheart turned her gaze to Celine, her face filled with disapproval as she spoke. "What do you an you joined the maids to cook? What’s gotten into you, dear? When did I ever teach you to do such things by yourself?"

I had no ti to listen to their mother-daughter drama and stood up, the chair scraping on the marble tiles.

I placed my right hand in front of my mouth, glancing at a closed room close to the dining room and walking hastily there, while simultaneously watching my system, searching for any slight change that would signify the presence of a poison.

"Is the food not to your liking? You’ve barely eaten anything!" Celine called back from behind just then, and this ti, she didn’t even bother hiding the mockery in her voice.

I ignored her, opening the door and stepping into the room.

Fortunately, the room turned out to be a restroom, complete with a toilet and a sink with a mirror in front of it.

I closed the door behind , sighing to myself before I walked up to the sink and stared at my reflection in the mirror.

"How sure am I that she even poisoned ?" I asked myself with a low voice, shaking my head. "She could be intentionally toying with for all I know."

Curious, I decided to turn to a voice that I’d grown oddly fond of hearing even though I only started hearing her last night.

’Hey, can you check if there’s anything poisonous in our system currently?’ I asked my wolf while staring at my reflection again, my right hand going to the mate mark on my neck that I’ve been hiding with my lush blonde hair.

I traced a line on the mate mark, clenching my jaw as I waited anxiously for my wolf’s response.

’You’re just scaring yourself for nothing, girl. Celine didn’t do anything to your food.’ My wolf said reassuringly, causing to let out a relieved sigh.

That bitch...

As I cleared my throat and arranged my hair with my hands again, a smirk playing on my face, I suddenly heard a notification from my phone causing my eyebrows to furrow.

Curious, I drew out my phone and opened it only to see a ssage from an anonymous number.

"I know your secret. And soon, the whole pack will know as well."

I squinted my eyes at first when I saw the ssage until my heart fell and a cold shiver went up my spine. My heartbeat increased as my fingers shook, causing to scan my gaze around subconsciously.

What the heck?

My secret?

I only had two secrets which no one knew about... My mate bond with Kaelos and my newly discovered identity as a hybrid.

If this person knew about these secrets and was threatening to let the whole pack know about it...

"No, no, no..." I muttered repeatedly as I brushed my left hand through my hair with frustration.

This couldn’t be happening!

Disoriented, I glanced at the bathroom door before running toward it, opening the door, and stepping out.

Imdiately I did, my gaze fell on Celine and her mother, the forr scrolling through her phone with a smirk on her face while the latter seed to be lecturing her on gods knows what.

"You don’t work for things that you can get people around you to do, honey. Especially not as the highest female werewolf in the continent." Mada Greyheart said firmly, pointing a finger at her daughter.

Celine rolled her eyes at first until she raised her head and spotted , after which a smirk curled up her lips.

"Oh, you’re back. Did you go for a little piss break?" She asked with that annoying innocent voice of her’s.

But I ignored her, rely flashing her a sarcastic smile before I walked past the dining table, not bothering to spare them a glance.

"Her emotions are just all over the place. She’s acting like a werewolf in heat." Mada Greyheart remarked, referring to , causing both she and Celine to chuckle.

Was that really why my mind felt so... Chaotic?

"Or maybe it’s because of this weird ass ssage," I muttered to myself, staring at my phone screen again, the ssage lingering there ominously.

Just when I stepped out of the mansion, I accidentally bumped into soone, causing to raise my head and finally co back to my senses.

It turned out to be Elder Davina...

"I– I’m so sorry, elder. I–"

"Odessa! Just the person I was looking for." Elder Davina interrupted my attempt at an apology with a smile, causing to raise a confused eyebrow.

What...?
