Chapter 9
Xavier was searching for me since morning when he saw his mother’s social media post attached with the video. He saw it with a heavy heart, looking at his wife who was so sick and pale, she looked like she had no life left in her, the video replaying over and over in his mind.
Despite the accusation and slanders by the
netizens online and the words of his
friends, something in him refused to believe Mia had betrayed him.
“How can she do this to me? No, she will never choose anyone else than me…no she is so dependent, she can’t..she loves me.” Xavier whispered to himself as entered the pack house only to witness a storm brewing inside with his grandmother so raged, that her hands had partially shifted to claws.
“You are a monster, you do not deserve to call yourself a mother Jane!”

“Do you even comprehend what you‘ ve done? Do you have any idea how much
effort did I put to bring Mia in this household!”
Xavier stepped into the room to see his mother cowering under grandma
Eleanor’s fiery gaze. Vanessa stood aside with the mark of fingerprints on one of her cheeks.
“Do you think I am a fool?! Are you even aware about the identity of the person you all have treated like dirt all this time?!”
“Grandma?” Xavier said hesitantly.
“Mia..she is just a woman Xavier rescued-” Colin said trembling.
“You idiot! Mia is the only daughter of the Lycan king and Luna queen, she is our wereworld’s most prized possession!
The elders of the neighboring packs are so angry that they have cut all ties with our pack! How dare you treat Mia like that, do you think you can have a good life after you

Xavier’s mother stumbled back, her face pale. “Our princess? This can‘ t be-”
“Who do you think came to bring Mia out of the burning car after the accident? It was the king himself! And the man you have. recorded her with, is the next heir to the throne Prince Felix.
To think you can suggest a dirty
relationship between the royal siblings?! Do you want the entire pack to perish along with you?”
“No, no mother..I didn’t know..”
Xavier froze, the words crashing into him. like a tidal wave. Brother? Mia had never mentioned a brother. Never once saying anything about her family.
Xavier whose ears were ringing with his body trembling asked in a low voice…

“What do you mean that she was rescued from a burning car?”
“My good grandson, while you were hanging out with your mistress shopping all night, Mia met an accident on the road, do you think it is the first time? A week ago a similar thing happened and what did you do, you did not even call her even once while she was in surgery.”
“No… That is not possible. Mia did not tell me…”
“What will that poor child say when you are so engrossed with your disgusting mistress? You have already left her to die!”
“Mistress?No! Grandma what are you talking about-” Xavier started asking before he abruptly stopped when his eyes fell on Vanessa.
“I have never thought about Vanessa like that! She is just like a sister to me-”
“Oh really? But Vanessa thinks of you just like that, in fact, it was her with your

mother who announced your new engagement today.”
“Do you know Xavier, that the royal family was completely against your relationship? It was Mia who rebelled against all of them for your sake, thinking that in front of her love the status between you and her would not matter. Just to be with you she pretended to be an orphan so that you would not feel insecure.
Even then her father refused because your status was too low, I had to beg the Lycan king by going on my knees to give me one chance to prove that you can keep Mia, my granddaughter–in–law, happy!”
“No..no”
But you failed terribly Xavier. ”
“Jane, you are a scheming, opportunistic snake, who ruined her son’s entire life! The mess you have created is too much for me to handle so now do whatever you
feel
like!”

“Xavier from this moment onwards I could care less if you marry Vanessa or not. You all acted out of spite, and now you all face the consequences.” Xavier fell on his knees. before holding Grandma Elenor desperately.
“Where..where is my wife?”
“Nobody knows other than your mother and Vanessa who sneaked on her, recorded the video and released it online to slander her.” With that Grandma Elenor went
away.
“You knew where she was,” Xavier asked his mother, his voice trembling as he looked at her with bloodshot eyes.
Xavier’s mother hesitated trying to come up with an excuse “W–What are you talking about, dear?”
“Don’t play dumb with me now Mom, just tell me the truth for god’s sake damnit!” Xavier stepped closer, his fists. trembling. “I called her office, her friends,

everyone–and no one had seen her. I was losing my mind. And all this time, you knew where she was?”
“Xavier, listen to me… It was a mistake.”
“A fucking mistake? You hid her from me! I’ve been out of my mind, worried sick about Mia’s disappearance and you say it was just a mistake?”
“You‘ re my son, Xavier. I only wanted what was best for you and chose Vanessa. I had no idea that Mia was a princess and that was why in anger I recorded the video and released it on social media!”
“What did you just say?” Xavier asked his mother before looking at her in betrayal as tears streamed down his face.
“I will never forgive you! If you really care. about me, you would have stayed out of my marriage!”
