Rejecting The Future Queen

Chapter 27

Yasmyn's POV

And here comes the biggest joke of the century. I want to laugh but I cannot. I couldn't. Because Silas sounded dead serious when he said what he said.

I looked at Brendan and he simply stared at me.

How long did he know? And who all knows about it? Why don't I?

I turned around to face Silas and he looked at me with his eyes full of tears.

"I don't want to believe you," I shook my head at him and he simply shrugged his shoulders at me.

"It is a tough pill to swallow but I am always here to help you in any way. I am your father after all. Even if I couldn't -"

"Stop" I shook my head, with my voice turning stern.

He cannot be doing this now. This is insane. This doesn't even make sense. What the f**k is happening here?

"My father is in the palace, sleeping because he is ill. Just because he cannot thrash your false statements, you cannot walk around claiming something so bizzare it is only making me laugh," I said with a smile.

He opened his mouth to say something else but I raised my hand at him, asking him to stop talking.

"One more word and I'll order my guards to have you in the prison. I do see you as someone who was close to me so I am forgiving you for now. Kindly run away and do not cross paths with me again," I said and turned around.

Brendan blocked my way and one glare from me got him giving way to me again.

I turned around after a few steps, just to see if Brendan chose to stay back and talk to Silas or if he was following me.

And he earned a brownie point when I noticed he was following me. Good. Because I want someone who follows me no matter what.

After everything that happened today, I am convinced that Moon Goddess created me as her source of entertainment.

There is no way in hell someone would deal with something like I do every single day.

"Do not bring this up with me again," I told Brendan the moment we reached the palace.

He nodded at me, with no expression on his face.

I am beginning to wonder what he might have thought and what made him believe that Silas was my father. It sounds ridiculous to even think about it.

"Is there anything else you want to tell me?" I asked him and he shook his head at me.

"Aren't you going to talk? Is this how it is going to be now?" I asked Brendan to which he just shrugged his shoulders.

"I realised my words have very less value so it's better I don't waste them on someone who wouldn't listen to them," he said that made my lower jaw drop to the floor.

He just outright spoke about me.

"What part of-"

I stopped talking when I realised the other hidden meaning in what he said. The main reason he left the palace and the pack was because he saw me kissing The Rogue King.

Brendan was the one who constantly told me that having Rogues around wasn't ideal and it would do more damage than good.

But how do I tell Brendan that Colton and I were having a fling even before I knew he was a Rogue. Or the fact that I found Brendan to be my mate.?

I chose silence this time. Not because I don't have anything to argue, but simply because I am tired. Tired of people and tired of conversations.

"Whatever it is, let's talk tomorrow. I am in no mood or energy," I whispered and walked to my room.

I could not help but think of my parents. How could Silas use this time for his own benefit.? Did he use this with someone else or was it just me because I was a fool and he knows it?

If it was something else Silas told me, then I wouldn't have laughed it off. But he just had to choose this one that sounds the most ridiculously stupid.

If I told this to Selena or Adi, they would laugh even more than I did.

I didn't even bother having a shower or anything. I simply fell on my bed and let the darkness swallow me.

At times like these, the most precious thing you could wish for is sleep to reach you.

I woke up when someone was pounding at the door.

I groaned but felt self aware as I opened it to see it was Selena.

"Please don't start about how you want me to get out. I cannot do that when things are a mess and no one is coming forward to help me," I shook my head and walked back into my room.

Selena followed me and closed the door behind her. I fell on the bed again, trying my best to sleep. It's already day and I guess past morning. The sun rays are harsh now that I feel them on my face. It's definitely noon now and wow no one woke me up!

"I am not here for that. I am here to help you," Selena said and I opened my left eye to look at her.

"Why?" I asked her and she shrugged her shoulders at me.

"I believe I am a partial reason for things to turn out this way. If I rejected my mate then and there, I would have still been the heir apparent. But because I didn't, and people assumed I would leave my sick parents to have my own happy life with my mate .. they went for the next best which eventually made you the Royal heir and the future Queen," Selena said.

I couldn't even nod. Because this is purely my karma. There is nothing someone could have done.

"It's time you wake up sweetie. You have a guest," Selena said and now that's interesting.

I don't have any guests.

"Who is that?" I asked her and she just grunted as a response.

She does that when she doesn't like something. So whoever this guest is, Selena doesn't like him or her. Whoever the heck that is.

"I didn't even want to ask the name. Get down, deal with her and get rid of her," Selena said before she walked out of my room.

Oh wow. So it's a her.

Wonder who that could be.
