Chapter 10: The Pack's Princess
"Don't worry, Snow, all these will be over soon." He tapped her hand. "I will make sure of it." He rubbed her back with his hand and stared at her for a long time before walking away.
"What is wrong with him? She muttered to herself as she walked away back to the kitchen to go complete the day's chores.
"Snow!! Cynthia called as soon as she arrived at the kitchen.
"Can she feel my presence? Snow wondered as she rushed to her.
"Good Morning"
"Why are you just coming out of the room?
"It's be.....
Before Snow could explain herself, a loud resounding slap met her face sending her to fall back from the heavy impact.
"You were asked to sleep with him not sleep by him! Who gave you the right to sleep?!
"Forgive me, Luna, I'm sorry." Snow pleaded.
"You will have nothing to eat today as punishment for this! Cynthia hissed and turned to leave.
She looked back again as she remembered that she had actually called Snow for something entirely different but anytime she sees her face, she just gets mad for no reason at all and all she thinks about is how to hurt Snow.
"You are to clean the guest room and the other room in the east wing. we'll be having some guests over."
"Yes, Luna." Snow remained in a kowtow state as she took her orders.
"You will also make to prepare the meals alongside the other maids. It's Seraphina's birthday tomorrow and we'll be having some important guests over, is that clear?
"Yes, Luna."
"If you ruin this" Cynthia grabbed Snow's hair and made her raise her head. She held tightly onto the hair and she pulled her violently.
"I will send you to your stinking parents!"
"I won't ruin this, I promise." Snow replied quickly to save her hair from Cynthia's tight hold.
"Better, now get to work! Leave nothing untouched!" She tossed Snow forward with a kick to her back.
Snow winced and hurried to the kitchen as ordered. She made and served breakfast and she rushed to go clean the entire east wing. She arranged and decorated the guest suite as she knew that the place was reserved only for important guests and the place hasn't been used for years so she knew that whoever is occupying that place must be very important.
So she put her utmost best into cleaning and decorating the place.
As soon as it was lunch time she rushed to the kitchen to make lunch and she served it before returning to complete the rest of the chores.
She went back in the evening time to prepare dinner and also to prepare some of the meals required for the occasion. She sighed in relief as soon as she was finally done.
She dragged her tired body to go get some water but paused as she heard someone speak from behind her.
"It's Our birthday tomorrow Snow, why are you still awake? You should go get some rest so you can wake up looking good tomorrow. Fina said as she ran forward to take the bucket of water away from her.
"Let me have it, Fina. This is the last chore I have to complete before I get to rest. Besides, my ears can't bear another slap tonight." Snow took the bucket and she hurried off.
"Okay, let's do this" Fina ran after her. "I'll help you and...
"No way Fina!
Snow took her bucket and walked farther away.
How could she dare to allow Fina to fetch water?
She can only try that if she wants the wrath of the entire pack on her. Fina is the Pack's Princess and everyone in the pack adores her.
She owns the kindest heart anyone could ever have and that is the reason why she is so lovable.
Even snow couldn't love her less.
Fina in her infinite kindness was able to befriend Snow even though the other girls in the pack think of her as dirt.
They all see Snow as someone beneath them because she is a slave.
But Fina was kind enough to always pass down her old clothes to her. She even dines with her sometimes.
She is the only one in the pack that reminds Snow that no matter her status she (Snow) is still human.
"I can't let you hold a bucket of water for me."
"But Why Snow? I only want to help you."
"You've helped me more than enough, please don't add more dept for me."
"But I need your help, Snow. And you can't help me if you're busy with the chores."
"You need my help? Snow furrowed her brow in confusion. The only help she always rendered to Fina was to do her homework and Fina already graduated so what help could she possibly need from her?
This question was on Snow's mind so she dropped the bucket of water and turned to Fina.
"What do you need me to do?
"It is very urgent that is why I have to help you complete your chores so you can help with my work too."
"No... No, I can't let you fetch water."
"Why not? Fina frowned. "If you can fetch water, I can too.
"I know you can, but I'm not letting you and that is final. Just tell me what you want me to do."
"Okay" Fina shrugged. "Since you won't let me fetch water, then I won't let you fetch too."
Fina dragged Snow and made her drop the bucket before pulling her towards the house.
Beta Elvis's house was built right beside Alpha Felix's. Hence, it was a lot easier to have Fina come over at will.
"Fina, you have to hurry up with whatever it is you want me to do. I have to go back quickly otherwise I might get in trouble with Cynthia again."
"You will leave when we're done!" Fina stated.
Snow had no choice but to comply, after all, Fina is her superior.
Snow has never been anywhere in the pack except the river, the forest, and Alpha Felix's house.
So she was stunned as she stepped into the house. She couldn't help her tears as every step she took into the house reminded her of her father.
Beta Elvis's house was the same house she grew up in. The same place she had the best memories with her parents.
Though it has been rebuilt, she could tell without an iota of doubt that it was her parents' house.
"What is it? Fina asked as she noticed that Snow's feet has suddenly come to a halt.
"It's nothing" She shook her head and looked ahead.
"Come on hurry" Fina motioned and dragged her into a room that coincidentally used to be her room.
"This is your room?" Snow asked again.
"Yes," Fina nodded.
She noticed that Snow couldn't stop staring at the room. She was moving around the room like she was seeing heaven in there.
"Do you like it? Fina asked.
"I love it," she mumbled.
It was designed by my Mother, why on earth won't I like it? Snow blurted unknowingly.
"Your Mother? Fina's brow furrowed.
"No, I meant it has to be designed by your mother for it to look so beautiful." Snow lied.
"Indeed, it is." Fina smiled. "Do you want to come to stay here with me?"
"No" Snow immediately waved her hand in dismissal as she realized what she had blurted.
"What do I have to do for you?" Snow asked impatiently.
She couldn't wait to get out of the house as soon as possible.
"Oh, Yes" Fina tapped her forehead.
"I brought you here to ask your opinion about my dress."
"You need my opinion about your dress? Why? Snow asked unbelievably. "I know nothing about fashion and trends so why would you choose to ask me?
Fina ignored her words and she went to the wardrobe and she brought the dresses out.
"So many clothes? Snow muttered. "Why do you need so many clothes for just one day?
"I have to look my best on that day like never before."
"Why?
Fina shook her head and sighed.
"You know nothing, do you?
"What am I missing here?
"Come on, Snow, Don't you know it's my birthday tomorrow?
"Yeah, I know it's your birthday. But you don't need so many dresses just for that, right?
"Wrong" Fina disagreed. "I need as many dresses as I can get because it's my birthday and I must look good."
"Is there ever a time that you don't look good? Snow laughed. She sat on the floor and looked up at Fina. "You always look good every time, Fina. You wear the most expensive clothes in the pack, don't you know this?
"I know it, but...."
"You know? Snow asked again and Fina nodded.
"Yes, I know."
"If you know this, why do you still need to look good when you already look best?
"Snow" Fina looked around to make sure that there was no one else around. She quickly rushed to lock the door.
"Logan is attending the party tomorrow" Fin whispered.
"Who? Snow asked as she couldn't hear him.
"Logan, the Crown Prince."
