The Alpha's Unwanted Bride

Chapter 521: THE PLAN

So what’s going to happen to her body right now?” coral asked her aunt once they stepped out of the room.

The girls who had heard their mistress die stood wary of Cherry and her group.

”Nothing.” Cherry shrug her shoulders indifferently.

”I mean.” And then Coral shifted uncomfortably. ”They all know that you killed her. They know us.”

Cherry sighed. ”You worry too much Coral. Don’t worry it’s going to be well taken care of.”

Coral hesitated uncertain of her aunt and then followed her along.

They got to where Cherry’s carriage awaited and her driver remained in his seat.

As soon as they approached he came down from his seat and walked up to where the door was.

He opened, and held it for Coral.

Coral mumbled a ”Thank the goddess.” as she stepped inside the carriage.

Cherry went in and then looked at Auburn.

”What are you waiting for?” Cherry asked the girl. ”Get in.”

Auburn hesitated and then got in.

She sat on the opposite side of the carriage, directly facing Coral and Cherry.

The carriage began to take off.

”I’m so glad to be done with *that* place.” A well irritated Coral said to herself as she fanned the heat off her face.

”Now Auburn.” Cherry began as she elegantly crossed her legs. ”I’m going to tell you what to do. Firstly what is your name?”

Auburn frowned. ”Amara.”

Cherry gave her such a dirty slap that Coral herself was stunned.

Amara pressed her hand on her burning cheek, shocked and in disbelief.

”You don’t make such mistakes.” Cherry said. ”We don’t have time to *make* mistakes. The next time you make such a mistake I will draw blood. Do you understand me girl?”

”Yes my lady.” Auburn said her hand still pressed on her now red cheek.

”Good.” Cherry nodded and then repeated her previous question. ”Who are you?”

Auburn was quiet, seemingly trying to make sure she didn’t make the same mistake again.

”Auburn?” She finally said in question.

”Better.” Cherry said. ”You are auburn. And who is Auburn?”

”I am the grand daughter of the Queen.” Auburn said.

”What else?” Cherry rose a brow.

Auburn swallowed and fiddled with her dress. ”I was adopted by a family after my mother died giving birth. My adoptive family raised me until they told me the truth about my heritage. I came to find my roots.”

Cherry nodded in agreement. ”Good. Very good. Remember that your mother had assumed all her life someone had tried to kill her, and that’s why she never returned back home.”

Auburn nodded.

”Aunt I have to tell you the truth. This story isn’t quite believable. Just anyone can come up with tales that they were Scarlet’s daughter.” Coral pointed out.

”Yes, but not anyone with royal red hair.” Cherry said as she played with Auburn’s new hair in between her finger tips. ”There is no magic that can recreate this.”

”And the blood?” Coral asked reasonably.

”I’ll still have that done. I will use magic to mix your blood with hers so that it can be detected as Royal blood.” Cherry explained.

The carriage drove over a bump and Coral complained.

”My blood? Why mine?” Coral asked unhappily.

”Because your blood is still royal and mine isn’t anymore.” An annoyed Cherry snorted in disgusted.

She hated being reminded that she wasn’t just striped of her right to be Queen, more was taken away from her.

Her beautiful red hair, her Royal blood itself had been replaced and become regular pleaseant blood and she couldn’t even shift.

She was left weak and useless to fend for herself.

Then she turned to face Auburn. ”You have to play the part. I can tell you’re a well mannered girl. If we had had the time we would have spent weeks getting you ready. But the earlier you move into the castle the better it is for all of us.”

Auburn nodded numbly.

”And what about the real grand daughter?” Auburn asked.

”That dreadful little girl that has refused to die.” Cherry poured her lips in anger. ”She would come visiting the pack. That’s about it. Nothing more.”

”What if the Queen doesn’t believe it? What if she knows that the girl is her real daughter?” Auburn asked worried. ”What will happen then?”

”Then I will dispose of you!” Cherry hissed and Auburn was filled with dread. ”What use are you to me if it doesn’t work?”

Auburn looked mortified.

Cherry twisted her face and gave a smile. ”You need to understand that this is an advantage to you and me. I need this. You want this. If you ruin this for me then my wrath.... Well.... You saw what happened to Candy.”

There was a chilling silence in the room.

Cherry looked at the window. ”You would be found outside the castle’s walls where the guards would be. I would assign guards who are secretly loyal to me to be the ones to bring you in.”

”I can’t bring you in because my sister’s husband hates me and anything that wreaks of me, he would reject it. So he can never know that you and I have met. No one can know.”

Auburn nodded. ”Yes my lady.”

”You would tell them that you are the Queen’s grand daughter. They will bring you in to the Queen.”

Then Cherry pulled out something from one of her pockets.

Something she had made the night before.

”Wear this.” She handed her a gold necklace with an emerald pendant that was partly broken.

Auburn collected it and wore it round her neck.

Coral’s eyes widened. ”Aunt? Where did you get that from?”

”I made it.” Cherry said to the women. ”The night before we traveled. Auburn, it’s a necklace that Scarlett had before she drowned. It Is a very special and also a very dangerous necklace that only the royal family is allowed to wear. If you remove it from your neck there will be chaos.”
