Chapter 57 The Wedding Night Pt 3

Ashina's heart raced, and though it was a cold night, sweat trickled down her forehead. She was terrified of the shame she could feel soon. If she got forced to morph into her werewolf form right here and she couldn't, before the dignitaries of Scyta and their King, it was going to be a massive disgrace to her, her mother, and her home kingdom. Her eyes, which flickered around, fell on her mother, and the Luna looked back at her with sympathetic eyes. Only her mother knew about her inability to morph, not even the Arthenish council. Queen Leah's hands were tied, as it wasn't going to be a good look if she dared to interrupt the ceremony. Ashina began to pant, and it got worse as she could no longer control the movement of her chest. As if sensing her utter discomfort, Prince Juan grabbed and squeezed her palm. She let out a gasp as she remembered that Juan knew about her defect. Abruptly, she turned to face him. His enraged eyes were fixed on his father, and his jaw was clenched in fury. He let out a low growl. He seemed displeased with his father, but Ashina hoped he was displeased enough to refuse morphing in their presence. "Well, what's the wait for? Go on and morph! I've always wanted to see what Princess Ashina's werewolf is like!" King Roy exclaimed, smiling at Ashina. Ashina lacked the strength to even put up a fake smile. Her worry was evident to all.
