The Rejected Werewolf Princess by Didiadeyemi

Chapter 21

Chapter 21 

I hid myself in my room for the entire duration of the day. Eve brought me lunch but I couldn’t bring myself to eat a bite. I felt undeniably guilty for what I had done to Lauren and I cannot imagine how she feels about my presence in the house. 

Evening came around and I had rehearsed the speech I was going to give to Ryker over a thousand times already. I would wait until we are eating dinner and then I would thank him for everything he has done so far and tell him that I would like 

to leave. 

I don’t know how he would react to it but the last thing anyone needs right now is my presence and I am willing to give him and Lauren the space they need to get back together no matter how much it hurts me. 

Evening fell and Ryker still hadn’t returned. I finally emerged from my hideout when I saw how dark the sky had become and made my way down the stairs hoping that he had returned but no one had told me. I checked his study first but it was empty and I made my way to the dining room to meet Eve. 

“I was just about to bring you dinner,” she said as soon as she saw me, “Just give me a second and I will bring it to the table.” 

“That’s fine but that’s not why I’m here. Have you heard from Ryker?” I asked and she shook her head. “That is very unlike him, he should be back by now.” 

“He could just be running late, it happened quite a lot actually,” she offered, “I am sure that everything is fine.” 

“Have you seen Lauren?” 

“The guards told me that she left a while ago in a hurry. I don’t know where she went or if she will be back.” 

Just as those words left her l*ps, Lauren rushed into the house in a sort of panic. Her eyes fell on me and I could see how annoyed she was just to be setting her sights on me. 

“Come, we have to leave.” She didn’t offer up any more explanation but I was frozen in place, “Are you deaf? We have to leave.” 

“What is going on?” 

She made her way over to me and dropped her voice to a deadly whisper, “Believe me, I want nothing to do with you just as much as you want nothing to do with me but Ryker is hurt and for some godforsaken reason, he asked for you. So are you going to ask any more stupid questions or can we leave?” 

I wasted no time in following her out of the house and into the waiting carriage. It was after the doors had shut that I looked down and realized that I was still in my night dress but I couldn’t worry about that not when Ryker was hurt. How did I not
