SWNOVELS Chapter 20
Chapter 0020
The Lycan King turned to look at his daughter with a look of relief on his face.
Starting today, I will slowly include my daughter in the kingdom’s affairs. Alphas, I wish for you to actively cooperate with her as you would me. Inform your Betas of this as well. With her privacy in mind, I hope you understand why I have chosen not to show her face to you for now. May we all strive for the prosperity of the Campbell Kingdom!
After he finished speaking, he nodded to the princess, held her hand, and raised his glass high. The audience toasted the princess as well, and the two walked off stage together.
I stared at her back, unable to take my eyes off of her. I couldn’t have possibly ever met her, but she felt so familiar to me. It was almost as
if-
“Flora, don’t you think that woman looks familiar somehow? It’s something about her figure.”
I suddenly heard Margot’s voice from behind me and was
mmediately reminded of how she stole my invitation. I turned to face her with a scowl, seeing her standing with Flora by a dessert table a few feet away. Their attention was so fixed on the Lycan King’s daughter that they didn’t even notice I was glaring at them.
Flora’s face was full of an envy that I had never seen before, making her cheekbones twist and twitch cruelly. In her eyes was the shining of greed so bright that if she were in her wolf form, her drool would have soaked the carpet beneath her.
Seeing her so unabashedly jealous made me feel sick. The Flora I knew was pure, frail, and kind. She told me how she didn’t care about

anything besides me, that all the money and status in the world paled in comparison. She only lived to love as the Goddess had destined for
her.
I had never seen her with such a revolting expression on her face.
Her mouth slowly went ajar as she looked on, and she quietly murmured, “Don’t you think she looks… a bit like Della?”
Della?
I turned around, wanting to take a closer look to confirm, but she was nearly out of view. She turned the corner behind the stage, one arm each h ooking Prince Jackson and the Lycan King’s arms. The only thing I could see clearly was a small corner of her dress.
“That’s impossible,” Margot scoffed. “The princess has lived in their castle all this time, and Della was our sl ave before she left. And how could the king’s daughter be an omega?”
Margot spat out Della’s name so disdainfully and with such sarcasm, yet just the mention of her name was enough to make my heart throb. Regardless of how she felt about Della, Margot was right. It was impossible for Della to be the princess. We all knew she was nothing more than an Omega who sl aved away in the packhouse, waiting for my return.
uddenly, I noticed Oliver by my side. He must have been running to find me, as he was out of breath and his hand shook slightly as he
laced it on my shoulder.
“What’s going on? I ran all the way here. Did you find her?”
I shook my head and told him no in a low voice, prompting a puzzled
look from him.
“Seriously? You regret rejecting her that much? That means you still love her right? Was all of this some sort of misunderstanding?”

Misunderstanding. I laughed to myself at the word. Did I truly regret it? I couldn’t have denied it, but my emotions stood separately from my duties. I fell silent for a moment and slowly replied, “An Alphar holds no regret over such things and there was-”
“There was no misunderstanding,” I suddenly heard a sarcastic voice behind us.
Oliver and I both turned our heads at the same time. When I finally saw her, I couldn’t look away.
Della wore a delicate white dress, shorter than I was used to seeing her in, which revealed her slender legs. I couldn’t help but notice how long they were, how they tempted me, as she walked forward with graceful steps.
