Chapter 5 ACCUSATIONS

STELLA'S POV

"Nothing much , just that your eyes seem to say something different to your words. Deep down , isn't that what you want to see? That I don't marry Tristan? Because then you can marry him and take my place in order to form an alliance with the BloodyClaw Pack."

Charlotte looked at me in shock , "What are you talking about?!"

I looked into her eyes and smiled , "Nothing. But there is something that I'm dying to know. Perhaps you can tell me , Charlotte?"

"What?"

"A few simple questions , Charlotte. Why are you so sure that I would mistake someone else for Tristan? Why are you so sure that I would leave the party and have sex with werewolves? And why did I feel weak all over after drinking the champagne you gave me yesterday?"

I raised my chin at Charlotte and laughed , "What did you give me to drink? Or did you add something to it?"

"What the fuck Stella?! What the hell are you talking about?!" Charlotte yelled. I knew Charlotte was getting panicked now. Every time she got nervous , she would shout like an ugly lunatic.

"I never even said that I was sure of anything! I said I was just joking! Damn it ," she continued shrilly , "And to claim that I drugged you?! How could I! Did you sleep outside and become stupid , Stella? How could I have drugged you?The glass of champagne was handed to me by an Omega servant. I just wanted to share it with you. I had no idea that it was a problem!"

"A joke , you claim? Well , all the disgusting jokes before were made by you ," I laughed, "So can you explain the problem with the champagne at the back? Why were there so many glasses of champagne in the venue , but only the one you gave me was problematic , Charlotte?"

"Oh my God , this is really the most ridiculous joke I've ever heard ," she rolled her eyes and laughed loudly , "It's pathetic really , isn't it? Just because I touched that glass of wine , you suspect I drugged it?"

As Charlotte spoke , she looked at me contemptuously. "What evidence do you have , Stella? Why do you accuse me like this , so viciously?"

"Charlotte is right , Stella. You should watch your words ," my father frowned. "Don't accuse people casually without sufficient evidence. Charlotte is your sister. She cares for you and takes care of you. She kindly gave you champagne to drink , but you are so ungrateful for her kindness that you have accused her of framing you!"

I looked at my father , and my heart couldn't help but ache. He actually told me to watch my words , not that bitch Charlotte , even though what she said was so hurtful.

I sadly withdrew my gaze and refused to look at my father. He had never once stood by my side before so I don't know why I expected for him to behave differently now. He had always favored Charlotte and Maddison , those two bitches.

Suddenly , Charlotte raised her voice again and shouted , "Why do you have to accuse me of such things! Stella , you actually did have sex with other werewolves at an important banquet just to ruin the engagement."

She stared at the love bite on my neck that I had accidentally revealed and tipped her head back laughing.

"So because of your mistake , you now want to push all the blame on me , right? You're really vicious."

I looked down at the love bite and smiled. It was just the right time for it to be revealed , wasn't it? I provocatively looked at Charlotte and asked , "So how do you know that it wasn't Tristan who had sex with me last night?"

She stood there , just as I expected , and soon screamed loudly , "Impossible! What are you talking about! That's impossible!!"

"Don't talk nonsense anymore , Stella ," my father said sternly.

I looked at them and said with a smile , "Since that's the case , why don't we wait and see if Tristan will come to us?"

My stepmother , who had been watching me from the side , sneered arrogantly at this time. "Oh , my Stella , your mother knows well that you have always been proud and confident, ever since you were a child. But , sometimes , you shouldn't boast of things that are out of your own reach."

I looked at her coldly and as much as I didn't want to argue with her , I couldn't stop myself from correcting her , "I only have one mother , stepmother Maddison."

My father was angry again and roared at me furiously. "Enough! Stella , what's wrong with you today? Is this how you talk to your mother and sister?"

"Don't be angry , dear, don't be angry ," Maddison quickly patted my father's back. "Stella has never accepted us. It's normal. Charlotte and I are used to it.

"She looked at me and gave me a mocking look , saying with a fake smile , "I know you don't like me , Stella. It's okay. I don't blame you."

She looked at me contemptuously as she shook her head and spoke smugly. "But you have to understand one thing , Stella , Tristan only promised the engagement to you. It doesn't mean that he will love you. You have to know that such a powerful werewolf will never fall in love with you!"

At this moment , an Omega servant suddenly ran in anxiously , "Alpha , Luna! Tristan , the heir of the BloodyClaw Pack's Alpha , is visiting!"
