The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 30

Sylvia's POV:

I was surrounded by all sorts of noise. Although they were dressed in gorgeous clothes, their mouths spouted the most vicious of words. Their eyes were full of hatred, as if they were nailing me to the cross in their minds.

Several she-wolves pulled on my dress. The accessories keeping my hair up had already fallen out. I crossed my arms over my chest, trying not to let my dress fall.

I tried pushing them away and escaping from this siege, but more and more werewolves just kept appearing. They all had ferocious smiles on their faces, like famished predators finally seeing prey again after a long time.

My body had frozen up. With my fists clenched, I was preparing to fight back, but I stumbled on my high heels and fell to the ground.

My dress was an absolute mess and my hair had just fallen loosely down my shoulders. I looked completely miserable and disheveled, like a helpless, broken boat being tossed around by the ocean's violent waves.

Maya had disappeared to somewhere. It was good she was not here. It was better that I suffer this humiliation alone.

"Are you always horny whenever you see a man, bitch? Well, you deserve to get played by men anyway!"

"You think you look so good in that dress? Do you really think it makes you a lady? Take it off! You don't deserve to wear that!"

"I mean, just look at her face. She's practically born to be a tramp!"

The she-wolves took turns insulting me with so much gusto. It was as if I had dug up the graves of their families with how much anger they were venting at me.

The male werewolves stood on the side to watch the show, some even whistling obnoxiously.

Holding back my tears, I tried to get up but Cherry quickly pulled my hair and grabbed my face forcefully.

There was bitterness written all over Cherry's face. Her thick black eyeliner made her expression look all the more upset, and it didn't help that her voice was so unpleasant and high-pitched. "Listen here, you little bitch. Don't even think for a second that you will live a better life here at the imperial palace. You are going to stay a slave. You're nothing but a slut, just like your mother. Look, your mother never even knew who your father was because she slept with random men. Who knows? Maybe you'll be an even greater slut than your mother."

When I heard Cherry's words, my mind went blank. My vision turned red and I found the strength to shove Cherry to the ground.

"Do not talk about my mother that way!" Without thinking twice, I slapped her hard across the face. I thought I could endure this beating tonight, but I was not going to tolerate any slander about my mother. Cherry had crossed the line.

"Bitch, let go of me!" Cherry shrieked. She tried to grab my hair again to push me away, but she couldn't.
