Found by the Lycan King

Chapter 27

Cynthia and the girls guffawed as the alcohol splashed on my face and ruined my makeup and hair.

I fought back tears as the girls began pulling at my hair and tugging at my dress again.

“Just let me go!!” I cried and attempted to run away, but the girls closed in on me. The music was changed to loud as a few people decided to dance, drowning my voice.

“Remember what you are, you breeder. That day, when I saw you in the mansion, I should have known you were eyeing Callahan. Know this–he is mine. MINE!!”

Cynthia jabbed a finger at my dress and then wiped her hand on a nearby shrub.

“Ew don’t touch her”

The girls began bullying me and I was about to yell back at them when suddenly everybody turned around.

“Hey, what is happening?” A voice asked, and I saw Elijah coming over.

The girls quickly pulled out their kerchiefs and scarves and began wiping my dress while a few threw the contents of their drinks at each other.

Cynthia immediately gave me a sweet smile. “Oh, I am so sorry, my foot got caught in something and I stumbled”

I rolled my eyes at her while she reached for my hand and grabbed it, squeezing it hard.

“Please, I am so sorry. I did not mean to. Please don’t complain to the King about me

She began crying, and her friends surrounded her, trying to calm her down.

Elijah had already approached us after placing the drinks on a nearby table.

“Is everything alright?” He asked as he looked at me..

But before I could answer, Cynthia threw him a helpless look. “I was goofing around with my friends and we did not see her. Somebody started throwing water around and we joined in too. She got caught in the mayhem.”

Elijah looked at the girls, some of whom were also wet and were wiping off the alcohol. Cynthia walked near him and batted her eyelashes. “I hope you understand it was a mistake.”

Elijah nodded, “It is alright. Just go and get yourselves cleaned, girls.”

Cynthia and her friends dragged me to the washroom. Once we were all alone, Cynthia kicked me in the stomach and
