Chapter 444
444 –She Unleashed My Wrath!
Kaylee:
“Apologize p>
Lord Williams was the first to speak.
Lady Abigail turned to him with a quizzical look, while my eyes stayed on Lord Eldon, expecting him to oppose the idea. He cleared his throat and then gestured toward me.
“You heard everyone. Apologize p>
When Lord Eldon also supported the idea, I realized he was saving himself. Otherwise, Madeline would have dragged him down with her.
“No,” I snapped at them.
Lady Abigail began rubbing her hands anxiously. She was an old woman. She could not stand against so many people. But I was not going to bow down to someone like Madeline.
“This woman has been in my husband’s mind forever, and you want me to apologize to her?” I screamed, watching people scoff and roll their eyes. 4
“Then go and assault your husband’s mind,” one of the women yelled.
“No one is above the lives of our children. You heard the people. Just bow down and apologize. The children are suffering,” Lord Eldon hissed at me. He clasped his hands behind his back and turned his face away.
“I am too old to be going through all this,” Lady Abigail whispered, looking hurt that she had been dragged into it.
“But you are not too old to start rumors or attack Madeline’s character, call her names, and hurt her,” a woman shouted from the crowd, causing Lady Abigail’s mouth to fall open as she looked around to find who had spoken.
“Just stop and apologize if what people are saying is true. If Madeline can come here and bow to our requests so many times, then we should be able to do the same. She is not the one responsible for dealing with the gossip. That is our responsibility,” Lord William hissed, slamming his hand on the table and making everyone jolt.
Madeline did not look away from me once. She held direct eye contact. It was humiliating.
“Your Highness, I am pregnant and I am a Luna. I don’t think all this stress is good for me. I should just go back home,” I whispered, coughing a little and placing a hand on my belly. 1
“You can go back to your pack after you apologize, not before that p>
The crowd stirred again, causing me to close my eyes and clench my fists. I had never thought people could
become so heartless.
Lord Eldon could tell I was slowly losing my mind at the thought of bowing down to a slut.
“You can apologize and then leave p>
It was not like Lord Eldon was able to help me either.
I looked at everyone and then at Lady Abigail. She was slowly being consumed by the pressure. She had tears in her
eyes.

people this way?
She could have just said it was fine and accepted our apology, but no, she wanted us at her feet.
“Now, just do it,” Lord Eldon hissed.
Lady Abigail turned toward Madeline, and I still hoped Madeline would change her mind, but she straightened her posture. She had become so heartless that nothing was stopping her.
Lady Abigail slowly lowered herself into a bow, placing her hands on her knees. I felt so bad for her that I turned my face away, but the others did not. Some of them were even recording, and at that point, I was too scared to call them out.
“I apologize to you. Please forgive me. I will never speak about your character again,” Lady Abigail whispered.
I saw a tear roll down her cheek and fall to the ground.
“I forgive you because I am better than you people who have hurt me,” Madeline said, acting graceful when she could have stopped the humiliation.
The crowd cheered as if they did not see what she was doing. This was so manipulative, and I knew it from the way she spoke, but the crowd was accepting her fake behavior.
Then all eyes turned to me. My body began to shake. I raised my hand and wiped away a tear, watching everyone glare at me, waiting for me to refuse again.
I turned to look at Lord Eldon, my father–in–law, but he gestured for me to move forward.
“Just do it and get it over with. People need help,” he said before turning his face away.
I stepped toward Madeline and saw her looking at me. Then I noticed a strange smirk on her lips. It was very subtle, but I saw it. She stretched one foot forward and, with her eyes, gestured for me to lower myself at her feet.
“Stop me right now,” I whispered to her, making sure others could not hear. “Stop me, and you will not suffer my wrath p>
“Apologize, Kaylee. That will be better for you,” Madeline hissed, ignoring my warning.
Then I started to lower myself. Every second of it felt like a slap to my face.
I sat at her feet, and she shook her foot, making me raise my hand and touch it like she was demanding.
“Forgive me,” I whispered in a broken voice.
“Forgive me for my mistakes. Forgive me for ever mistreating you,” I whispered, and my body began to shake.
As my tears fell to the ground and dried quickly, I made a promise in that moment that I would make Madeline cry tears of blood like no one ever had. 1
I promised I would take away what she held dear. I swore on my unborn children’s lives that their mother would answer for the humiliation that had been caused by that insolent rogue. 1
