Chapter 12 THEON
Bessie glanced at me warily as we walked through the hallway. "Your Highness, I really don't understand what is going on." She said.
1 arched a brow at her. "You don't?"
"Of course I don't, your Highness. Her eyes travelled to Sadie and hardened. "And if this s*****k told you anything, don't believe her! You really shouldn't be rolling with a lowlife s****m like her."
Miro frowned and just when he was about to say something, our eyes met. I shook my head, urging him to remain calm. He glared at me in response but obeyed.
"Is that so?" I asked Bessie.
"Yes, your Highness." She smirked, as she glared at Sadie. "Oh, and on that note," She stopped and smiled at me, "... your female Elite, Ryn, has been expelled from this school for bad misconduct. I'll advise that you kick her out, my Prince. Such people shouldn't be on your prestigious team." "I see" I replied, as we began to climb some stairs. "What did she do?"
She stopped and pouted. "She tried to hurt me.
"What-" Sadie cut in, looking horrified.
"Let her speak." I reprimanded, much to Bessie's delight.
"Yeah!
Yeah! Let
t me talk, sk*****k!" Bessie said, before moving alông. "Ryn is an animal! She almost cut me with a knife! If others were not there to save me..." She sighed, "I'm afraid I might have even died that day!" "Un-"Sadie started to protest, but I cut her a look and winked. Sadie finally relaxed and nodded.
Bessie kept on talking and

"Your Highness! I'm afraid dying all sorts of things until we arrived at the last floor where the principal's office was. Miro was the first to enter the lobby and when the secretary saw us, she scrambled to her feet and bowed.
I the Principal is is not-"
"Sit the f*****k back down, liar!" Miro snapped and the woman immediately obeyed, mumbling an apology.
saw the way Bessie's e's eyes rounded fear as she stared at Mira
I smiled to myself. Miro had been a total sweetheart when they met. Now she was seeing a whole new side of him and has no idea how much worse he can get.
Bessie knocked before opening the door and when we all walked in, we found Principal Crow scrambling to hide something from his table including the cigar he'd been smoking.
"Oh wow! Your Highnesses! You're here!" He smiled nervously as he rose to his feet and fanned the air to clear the smoke around him. "To what do I owe this pleasure?"
Bessie's ears became red with embarrassment. Miro crossed his arms behind him and walked around the office table to where the Principal stood. The two men stared at each other before Miro ordered, "Move." The man
man instantly moved out of his way and came around the table to stand near his daughter.
Miro sat in his chair, then smirked as he bent down, bringing out the bottle of whiskey and a packet of Cuban cigar. Placing
it on the principal's desk, his eyes shone with the sa****ic excitement I'm all too familiar with, "Father would LOVE this!" Principal Crow trembled as his eyes filled with fear, "Please. Don't tell him. I'll do better."
"Really?
"Yes, your Highness. Principal Crow pleaded, "I can do better. Just don't tell the Alpha King
"Fine. We won't." I said, shoving my hands in my pockets. "But you have to tell us what happened to Ryn Ashmore."
The hesitation in his eyes told me everything I needed to know
"I-I had her expelled." He answered.

"Your Highness, I already-, Bessie cut in,
"Shut your mouth!" I said, earning a frightened look from her.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

faced her father. "You had Ryn expelled. Why?"
"Because-
"Speak up" Miro ordered and the elderly man flinched.
"Because she hurt my daughter!"
Miro glanced at Bessie. "She doesn't look hurt to me."
Sadie snorted behind us, making Bessie's face twist in anger. "What are you still doing here, B****h?!" She yelled. "This doesn't concern you. GET OUT!"
"Or what?" Miro asked, already on his feet with his arms across his chest. "Is this how you bully my cousin?"
"What?" Bessie and I her father shared a glance as they went pale. She's your c-cousin?"
"Surprised I'm not a lowlife s***m?" Sadie smiled bitterly.
Her lips quivered. "I-I didn't know."
"Still not an excuse to pick a fight with someone." I said.
"I didn't pick a fight with her! I swear!"
"Lies!"
Sadie yelled. You
intentionally hurt me to get back at Ryn! You wanted a fight and when-kyn wouldn't give in, you humiliated her!"
"That's a lie!" Bessie retorted.
"Oh yeah! How about a video to prove it then? Sadie said, whipping out her phone from her back pocket. Bessie's eyes widened in fear as she watched Sadie give her phone to me. Miro walked around the desk to join me and together we watched how the whole thing unfolded. The more we watched, the angrier I became and I didn't miss Miro's scalding heat down the bond. Ryn had humiliated herself in order to protect Sadie and Bessie had been cruel through it all. And when Ryn decided to fight back, I couldn't help but swell will pride.

The video ended and I glared at Principal Crow
"Did you
see this
this?" I asked.

He glared at his daughter who was now staring at her feet. "No. Your Highness. I wasn't aware."
I raised a brow. "Were you also not aware that your daughter is a bully and that she's responsible for making Miss Ashmore sleep in a storage room for three years?"
The Principal licked his lips and smiled nervously. "You know, kids will be kids. I'm sure there was a misunderstanding somewhere. Bessie's a good girl. She wouldn't do that."
"So that means you're calling my brother a liar? Miro asked and the man's eyes widened more in fear.
"No! I didn't mean that!"
"So which is it?" I asked, barely able to restrain my anger. "Were you aware or not? And don't even think about lying cause I'll let my brother have his way with you. For good measure, Miro smiled and waved a hand that had grown sharp claws.
The Principal swallowed. "I'll confess." he said. "She did come to me to complain but I chased her out of

office."
I stared at him in disappointment. "Why?"
The man was close to tears no
now.
"Because I wanted to make my daughter happy."
Miro and I shared a glance and Sadie shook her head in disgust.
"Was it your daughter who also told you to make Royalty pick the trash?" Miro asked.
"I didn't know!" Bessie
said.
"SHUT UP!" Miro yelled, making her flinch. "One more word from you and I'll have your tongue!"
Bessie whimpered where she stood and began to cry. I rolled my eyes
"Please, your Highness. . I didn't know Sadie was Royalty." Principal Crow beseeched.
I grounded my jaw in anger. "Ger Sadie's file. Now."
He scrambled to the shelves behind his desk, digging through piles of files and finally, he returned with one.
"Open it." I ordered and he did.
His eyes widened when he read the special note attached to Sadie's file then he dropped to his knees instantly. "Lam SD sorry. I have offended the Crown! Please, forgive me! 1 was foolish and ignorant!"
You still are," I remarked dryly. "And I can't have someone as incompetent as you managing my mother's legacy, so you're
fired."
fired.
His eyes widened, "Your Highness-" but I was already facing his weeping daughter. "You. Make sure you scrub the internet clean of that video. If I find it online after three days, I will find you and I will give you a real reason to cry. Understood?" Bessie nodded eagerly. "Yes sir."
"Good. Now, get on your knees and apologize to Sadie."
Bessie immediately became distraught but she reluctantly went on her knees and apologized. "I'm sorry. Sadie."

Sadie sighed. "The person who deserves this apology is Ryn."
Ahh yes. "Speaking of which... I faced the Principal. "Wh
