Shifted Fate Novel

Chapter 242 I ran to the caff to grab a breakfast sandwich and a coffee , then made my already gathered .

Hey .

I took the last bite of my sandwich and slid in way to the table where the girls were when Hanna and Micca both yelled .

a seat , only to nearly choke to death.

Amy ! The food hit the back of my throat when I inhaled and I started to cough .

The two of them came over , bouncing while I tried to swallow the food that was currently trying to kill me .

I finally swallowed the lump in my throat .

Yeah ? I coughed more and they at least looked apologetic .

Sorry .

Hanna patted my back , but Micca just pushed her way .

Look at your hair ! Micca pulled on my newly shortened strands .

Does it look bad ? I grabbed a curl , tucking it behind my hair .

No ! She fluffed up my hair some .

I think it looks amazing on you .

Your curls seem to have more life , more bounce .

It looks fantastic .

Who did it ? Micca looked around .

Ive needed a haircut for a long time .

I pointed to Toya .

She did .

Oh my goddess Toya , why didnt you tell us you can cut hair ? I honestly cant , but that one got her hair caught in something and had to hack it off .

I did my best to save it , but the curls are doing most of the work .

Toya laughed .

You shoulda seen it last night .

It was horrible .

Micca pouted for a minute .

Damn , and here I was , hoping to get a new look .

Toya laughed .

Are you open yet ? The women in the front of the growing crowd bounced impatiently .

I gave her a soft smile .

Let me check on the tablets and make sure the program is fully functional and then we will be good to go .

Thank you .

She was so polite , but I could tell she was excited .

No worries .

But she shook her head .

I dont think you understand .

I tried to apply at home .

Because I didnt make it here last night .

But once you enter your name and try to submit it , the council redirects you .

Hanna came over .

To where ? Another form to fill out , and then it checks something .

I dont even know what it was checking .

What I do know is that after about ten minutes , it rejected my application .

She looked frustrated .

So this is the only way for me to even get a chance .

There were a few others nodding .

I tried too .

Me too .

I was denied in under one minute .

What are they even checking .

? Obviously they are checking if youre even remotely worth of being the queen .

Ninas nasally voice came from somewhere and I swear I wanted to roll my eyes .

1 I watched as the few women in front of me deflated .

Ladies .

Every one of you deserves the chance to be considered .

Whether or not the king selects you is really his choice , and we have to be ready for that .

But there is nothing in this world that makes you less than someone else .

Nina laughed as she weaved her way through the waiting crowd .

You are giving unranked hope .

And that isnt fair .

I can say with certainty that any of these unranked wolves would make a better queen than you would , Nina .

I smiled at her as her face reddened .

At least they know how to speak to others politely .

And when to see themselves out of a conversation that wasnt theirs to have ? I turned to the women in front of me .

Dont listen to her .

She is a very weak alpha who feels the need to make everyone feel less than so that she can feel better about herself .

A few of the girls snickered .

And as I was saying , I wont discriminate anyone from applying .

Everyone deserves a shot .

I turned to the girls .

Hand me the tablets , please .

The others all handed over their tablets , and I double checked the programming .

Everything looked good , and I handed them back one by one .

The cords are all ready .

Wendy smiled as she poked her head out from under the table .

She waved her hand for the first tablet , and Hanna laughed as she handed it over .

One by one , Wendy plugged in the tablets .

We are all set here .

I turned back to the crowd of women .

Then we are all set to start the second day of applications .

Wait a moment , if you would .

A male voice cut over the crowd and Ninas smile had my stomach clench .

Why are you worried ? Nixs voice was amused .

Even the King cant command us to do anything without trying .

No one here can do it .

Which means you can protect everyone here from any command .

Megan , who was currently watching over the candle , chuffed out a laugh .

But they dont know that yet Nix slunk out of my forest with a menacing glint in her eyes .

But they will find out today .
