still mingled with everyone around the ballroom and my friends were hanging around as well.
Lucas was staying pretty close and we were talking for a lot of the night. But I had to excuse myself briefly when my mother came back to the party with my dads. "Is everything alright?" I asked.
"It's nothing for you to worry about." Mom said.
"You promised me that you wouldn't do that. You wouldn't keep secrets from me." I Fighter 106said. So
mom looked back at me and she nodded her head.
"Yeah. I did say that. Alright, my mother was just here with another sad story about how broke
she is. She wanted money. That's all there is to it."
"Why did you use your powers?" I asked.
"Because she wasn't alone. It seems like she's been making a few friends in the last few
years. And none of them were human. I needed to let them know that they couldn't come here and extort money from us." Mom said, sternly.
My dads were standing around my mother really protectively and I let it go for now. So I
walked back to my friends and Lucas was still waiting for me as well.
When it was time for dinner we all took our seats and I had to sit with my mom and dads, but
then they brought out a massive cake to feed everyone in the room.
They sang happy birthday to me and I blew out the candles and I cut the cake.
There was a massive table along the side of the room that was full of presents.
There were a lot of Alpha's at the party that I didn't know. But they were invited for political reasons. Just like all other royal families. They had to keep the peace and include others in these sorts of things.
I was used to it and I didn't hold it against them. It's just the way it worked with royalty. I knew
that.
"Alright. Well, as much as I know our kids would love to continue to be embarrassed by all of us. I have arranged for the second ballroom at the back of the castle to be decorated a little differently. And the teenagers can now go to that ballroom and have a little more fun than hanging around with some stuffy adults." My mother announced.
"Are you serious?" I asked. This was a complete surprise.

"Of course I am. It's done up like a disco and there's food and everything in there for you. Go and have fun." Mom said. So I hugged her and I hugged each of my dads before I left and I led my
friends to the other ballroom.
It was a long walk to get there, but it was definitely worth it.
It looked more like a teenage party. A disco ball, a DJ, streamers and balloons decorating the whole room and a photo station where we could take as many photos as we possibly could.
As soon as we all walked inside the DJ starts playing music and we all started dancing
around the room.
Avery, Violet, Chloe and Ella stayed pretty close to me when they saw that Hazel and her friends were there as well.
Their parents were friends with my parents, so I shouldn't be surprised that she was here. But I wanted her to stay the hell away from me.
Which wasn't too hard. Because it wasn't too long before Lucas asked to dance with me and I
accepted it.
But it was a slow song and he pulled me close to his body.
My heart was thumping so hard that I was sure he could hear it and I was trying to control my breathing, but it was really hard.
If he did notice all of these red flags of how nervous I was, he didn't let me know. He kept
dancing with me, despite how I was feeling.
Hazel kept her distance that night, which I was grateful for and we all had a really great time at the second party.
It didn't wrap up until about 2 in the morning and that's when everyone started heading home and most of them thanked me for a great night. They loved the party and they loved my mother for arranging the parent free party afterwards. Which took me by surprise and
everyone else.
Lucas was the last one to leave and it looked like it was on purpose.
He handed me a piece of paper with his phone number on it and he kissed me on the cheek
before he left.
I blushed again, but I couldn't wipe that smile off of my face.
As I was walking back through the castle I saw Sarah and another servant cleaning up the main ballroom. The other servant was her mother Camila.

CHAPTER 004
She was Wesley's mate and mom didn't want her to die quickly either. She wanted her punishment to be dragged out. So they now both have to serve the royal family.
It also shows everyone else that my mother isn't one to be messed with. Because she means business and she will make you pay if you go against her. If you try to hurt her or her family. They both looked up at me as I was walking past and I couldn't wipe the smile off of my face. They both just glared at me as I walked up the stairs and I got out of my dress and I hung it up and washed off my makeup.
I got ready for bed, but I had such a hard time going to sleep that night. I was just too excited.
But when I did finally go to sleep. There was only one thing I saw. It was Lucas. His face was dancing around in front of me.
I'd never had a better dream than that in my whole life.
Maybe there is hope for me afterall.
Guys had never really paid me much attention before. But Lucas was different. We didn't grow up together.
He's new to the area and doesn't know everything there is to know about me. He hasn't been there for every step of my life, like everyone else around here.
I had a really good feeling about this.
But I knew that he would have to get past my dads first. They will definitely want to know who he is if it goes any further.
I hope that doesn't scare him off. My dads can be pretty scary when they want to be.
Hopefully mom can keep them under control.
