From my current place, I could see how Meredith had twisted everything. She had turned Oliver against me with lies and deceit. She spread rumors that I wasn’t chaste, I was evil, and so many more. All of those rumors were to make herself look better and secure her position.
Meanwhile, the pack members gathered in the grand hall looked at Oliver and Meredith with clear disapproval. I saw them closing their eyes and whispering to each other. Their whispers reached me even from my spectral state.
A maid whispered, “Can you believe the Alpha is showing off his mistress like this?”
“This woman caused our Luna’s death,” a gardener said in anger.
Despite their visible disapproval, the pack remained silent. They had to live under Oliver’s rule, no matter how openly disrespectful he was to me. After all, they still wished to keep their heads above their shoulders.
On the other hand, the mistress seemed to enjoy the attention even if it was a negative one like the people at the castle had for her.
