The pride in his voice was unmistakable, as if he were announcing a grand achievement rather than addressing the daughter he had treated like an outcast for so long.

"We have always known you were special," he proclaimed, his tone almost reverent. "Just look at you now-standing beside the Alpha King as his mate and queen." My mother, a picture of fervent excitement, clasped her hands together as if witnessing a divine event unfold. "Yes! The entire kingdom will talk about us," she exclaimed, her eyes gleaming with ambition. "Our daughter, the Queen!" Behind them, Rosella stood rigid, her body tense and her eye twitching as though she was battling an unseen foe.

The façade of happiness was nowhere to be found; her anger was as clear as day, drawn across her face like a child's messy artwork. I crossed my arms and tilted my head, my voice dripping with sarcasm. "Are you done?" My mother blinked, momentarily taken aback. "Emilia... we're your family. We raised you." A laugh erupted from my lips, echoing down the hallway like a mocking bell. Raised me? They raised me in the same way a butcher "raises" a cow, preparing it for slaughter. "You wanted me dead," I shot back, shrugging my shoulders nonchalantly.

"You sent me to die." Rosella lifted her chin, her trademark arrogance shining through. "But you didn't die," she retorted, flipping her hair with the dramatic flair of a model in a shampoo commercial. "If we hadn't sent you to the Alpha King, how would you have fulfilled your destiny? You should be thanking us." I locked eyes with her, a silent battle of wills. For a fleeting moment, I contemplated hurling her against the nearest wall, just to see the look of shock on her face. My mother clicked her tongue, irritation evident.

"Now you're standing beside him, and you think you're all mighty-" "Rosella, stop," my mother interjected sharply, grabbing my sister's arm to silence her. Rosella yanked her arm free, rolling her eyes in a way that suggested she was far too sophisticated for this conversation. "I'm just telling her the truth." My mother turned to me, her smile deceptively sweet, reminiscent of a snake adorned in lipstick. "Come on, darling. Let's put old grudges behind us.

Everyone is starting afresh." Ah, there it was-the classic act of feigned kindness, the kind that only emerged when they sensed my newfound power. My father placed a hand over his heart dramatically, as if auditioning for a role in a tragic play. "We must have been manipulated by that witch. That's the only explanation." I burst into laughter, the sound rich with disbelief. "Suddenly, you want to shift the blame for your evil deeds onto a witch?" I smirked, enjoying the moment. "How convenient." Rosella groaned loudly, her frustration palpable.

"Mom, she's so arrogant." My mother grasped her hand again, her voice firm. "Stop that. Show some respect for your sister. She's going to be queen." Rosella choked on her indignation. Maximus, who had remained silent beside me, finally stepped forward, his demeanor radiating barely contained fury. He looked as though he could shift at any moment and unleash his wrath upon them all. "Guards," he growled, his voice reverberating through the hallway. In an instant, three warriors materialized, bowing their heads with utmost respect. Rosella's eyes widened in shock.

My mother paled, and my father swallowed hard, as if suddenly reminded of the gravity of his position. Maximus pointed at them, his voice low and commanding. "Throw them in the dungeon." And just like that, chaos erupted. The air filled with the sounds of disbelief and outrage. Rosella gasped dramatically, her voice rising in protest. "What? You can't do that to us-we're your family!" My mother reached for me, desperation etched across her features. "Emilia, my daughter, please!

That would bring shame to us!" I stepped forward slowly, deliberately, letting the moment linger just long enough to make them squirm. Then I turned to Maximus, my fingers brushing his cheek lightly, adding a sweet lilt to my voice. "Baby... you know what I was thinking?" Time seemed to freeze. The guards halted, my parents froze in disbelief, and Rosella's struggles ceased momentarily, her glare aimed at me like a dagger. Maximus's expression softened, his eyes lighting up with curiosity. "What is it, my love?" I turned back to the three traitors, a casual smile gracing my lips.

"It would be dreadfully boring to throw them into the dungeon," I mused, feigning contemplation. My father exhaled in relief, while my mother sagged against Rosella, the tension momentarily lifting. Then, I smiled-a slow, wicked smile that promised mischief. "How will they endure watching everything, knowing the daughter they rejected is destined to be queen?" Maximus's eyes sparkled with a dark amusement, clearly entertained by the unfolding drama. And honestly? So was I.

"Whatever you want to do to them," he murmured, his voice low and filled with a simmering heat, "it's in your hands." "Thanks, babe." That word-babe-had a profound effect on him. Something dangerous. Something delicious. A flicker crossed his eyes, a mix of amusement and hunger, as if witnessing me assert my power over my family was the most thrilling spectacle he had ever encountered. I lifted my chin defiantly, my voice steady. "I want them to watch. I want them to stand there as I rise to royalty...

and they remain nothing more than mere observers." Rosella's mouth dropped open in disbelief. "You arrogant b***h!" she spat, her fury palpable. I sighed dramatically, feigning exasperation. "Take her first. She's causing me a headache." Two guards seized her immediately. Rosella kicked and screamed, hurling insults that ranged from my appearance to my future children, her outrage a cacophony of desperation. I smiled sweetly and waved as they dragged her away, the image of her struggle filling me with a sense of satisfaction. My mother clutched my arm, panic flooding her eyes.

"Emilia, you can't throw your sister in the dungeon!" "Oh," I replied lightly, "but I can." I slipped my arm from her grip, as easily as one might discard a soiled rag. Then I turned to Maximus, my heart racing with exhilaration. "Let's go, darling." He took my hand without hesitation, raising it to his lips and kissing my knuckles with reverence. His eyes burned with pride. And something darker. Something that made my knees weak. We walked past my father, who stood frozen, shame etched across his features like a permanent scar.

I paused beside him, tilting my head with a smirk that spoke volumes. "See you around, Alpha Gregor." He didn't dare meet my gaze, his eyes glued to the ground as if it held the secrets to his wretched existence. My mother followed behind us, her voice a desperate plea. "Emilia, please-please release Rosella! She didn't mean it-she's still your sister-Emilia, please!" I ignored her, treating her like a pesky fly buzzing incessantly in my ear. Maximus glanced at me, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

"You're even more sexy when you're angry." A rush of heat coursed through me, pooling low in my stomach. I smirked up at him, my confidence soaring. "They deserve it." He leaned closer, his voice dropping to a sultry whisper. "They deserve much worse." We continued walking, our steps steady and our hands intertwined, the cries from behind us fading into nothingness. But what lingered in my mind was not the sound of their despair. What stayed with me was the look in Maximus's eyes. A blend of pride. Darkness. Possession. Desire.

And the unwavering knowledge that anyone who dared to hurt me-even if they were family-would face the consequences. For the first time in my life... I didn't feel small. I didn't feel weak. I felt like a queen. His Queen. Conclusion In the aftermath of the confrontation, Emilia stood tall, her heart swelling with a newfound sense of power and identity.
