The Rejected Luna Queen novel Chapter 48

Princess Sophia's POV

I sat on my bed, caressing it with both hands. After spending such a long time in the dungeon, I realised just how much I had missed my room.

I stood and went to the mirror, just beside the bed and had a look at myself to see what had become of me. I looked very pale but at least, I could console myself with the fact that I wasn't dirty any longer. My hair was well packed together and the blue dress I had was sparkling. I had my golden necklace on as my mother; the Luna of the Silver Moon Pack, always told me to never put it off. I looked like the princess that I was.

As soon as I was taken to the room earlier that day, I was given access to my clothes and I quickly ran to the bathroom and had a wonderful cold bath; my first in so many days.

At one point, I felt like not leaving the bathroom as the cold shower made me feel so relaxed. I thought hard about all I'd been through and I began to understand how people felt when they were imprisoned. Before being there, I never knew how bad it was.

Sitting back down on my bed, I heard a knock on my door and I wondered who it was. I hoped it was Alpha Bane trying to come to my room to talk things out with me. Perhaps, it was possible that we could even reconcile and things would get back to normal. I had lofty hopes. I loved him so much.

"Come in," I said, adjusting my position on the bed and putting up a very apologetic face to convince him.

My door was opened and I saw a young lady walk into my room with a silver tray in her hand which contained food. I was highly disappointed and I couldn't even hide it, nor did I want to. All I felt like doing at that moment was to get up and knock the food out of that moron's hands. I was so mad.

"Why did you disturb my sleep?" I asked the maid harshly. I lied because I didn't know what else to pin my anger and annoyance on so it'll still make some sense. "Answer me, you idiot!"

"I'm… I'm so sorry, my Princess," she apologised. "I didn't mean to interrupt your sleep. Please, forgive me."

"Sorry for yourself, you fool!" I barked at her, not caring about whatever she had to say. I couldn't believe I had waited and adjusted myself so well for just a common maid who had nothing to offer. Well, except for the stupid food that she had in her hands which I wanted nothing to do with.

"Drop it on the table and leave this place immediately!" I screamed at her.

The maid walked to my table, which was very close to the window and there, she dropped my food. Then, she turned around and walked away as I had instructed her to do while I just hissed at her as she left.

I stood from my bed and walked to my table, pulling out the blue, plastic chair beside it and sitting down there. I stared at the food that she served me and while it looked appetising. I simply had no desire to eat it.

There were several laps of deep-fried chicken which I loved so much. It was my favourite and it was probably why it was made for me in the first place. But I lacked the appetite to eat it and I even considered calling one of the maids to dispose of the food since they weren't worthy to eat food made for the Princess.

In the end, I thought against it, knowing that I needed to eat something, even if I didn't feel like it, especially after losing a lot of weight due to the lack of food for so many days in the dungeon.
