The Alpha's Unwanted Bride-Chapter 323: JASMINE’S DEFIANCE
Chapter 323: JASMINE’S DEFIANCE
After Jasmine had left Xaden and returned the empty plates to the pile that was already available, she turned and saw that Xaden was already gone.
She gave a light shrug and then bent down to start washing the plates.
She knew that Anna was still salty and she decided to give her time and a more hungry stomach before she gave her food.
So cleaning the dishes would give her some more time.
As she washed, one of the laughing men dropped their dirty plates and began to walk away.
Jasmine groaned in annoyance that she had cooked and was still washing the plates.
By the time she was done, she was already filthy and exhausted.
She desired a bath and some nice sleep .
She looked up and saw Anna’s carriage still there.
She had still refused to step out.
Jasmine sighed heavily, dusted herself and fetched some food for Anna and walked to the carriage.
She knocked at the door.
Anna did not respond.
She knocked harder again.
"Who is it?" Anna hissed in rage.
"It’s me Jasmine." She replied.
"Go away!" Anna hissed in disgust. "You are by far the last person I even want to see."
Jasmine knocked again and said. "I will not leave until you open this door. I will keep on knocking until you finally decide to open it."
Jasmine kept on knocking and knocking.
Anna was so furious.
"Stop. Stop and just leave me alone. Why will you not leave me alone?" Anna demanded from inside the carriage .
But Jasmine ignored her cries and kept on banging.
Eventually a very frustrated Anna had no choice but to open the door of her carriage when she under the knob and flung it open.
"What the bloody hell do you want from me?" Anna hissed at her. "I told you to leave me but you insist! Why? Is it because you are no longer a slave to your own people?"
Jasmine swallowed Anna’s awful words without even the barest of flinches and sighed in heavily.
"Xaden said-
Anna rose her brow and said. "He is lord Xaden. Or do you now believe that because he fucks you, you can now refer to him like he is your equal?"
Jasmine looked down and sighed. "Of course not."
"Better." Anna hissed in arrogance and distaste.
"Lord Xaden insisted that I serve you your meal. He does not want you to go hungry tonight".
Anna looked down at the hand that Jasmine had extended with a plate of food.
Anna looked as if she would gulp down the entire food immediately.
Her entire face said hunger.
But her pride made her withdraw and quickly conceal her expression.
"Get out." Anna hissed. "And do not disturb me."
She started to go back into her carriage.
But Jasmine used her hand to hold the door, prevent Anna from shutting it.
"I am sorry I can not do that." Jasmine stated.
"How dare you?" Anna snapped. "If you think that the events of what happened back at the moonlight pack has changed anything then you are fucking wrong. I am still the same Jessica that you knew."
And then Anna gave a tight smile and said. "Just that I am a new invention. Just that I am Anna now and I promise you, that I will be worse than you ever imagine."
Jasmine nodded and said. "Then until that time comes. I promised your brother that you will not go to bed hungry and that is what I will do."
Anna looked at her and realized that she had truly no intention of leaving.
"Will you not go?" Anna barked.
"No." Jasmine said.
Anna struggled with jamsine to try and shut the door, but Jasmine stood firm and held the door of the carriage tight.
Anna glared her nostrils in rage and sat down in her carriage and folded her arms.
"Fine!" Anna hissed. "Then I will just lie down here while you waste your time."
"Alright." Jasmine said as she adjusted her stance. "And I will stand here all night and not let you close that door. I am a servant. I have stood for hours and I can do the same. The question is, can you sit in a carriage whilst the very terrible cold deals will you?"
Anna glared at Jasmine and turned to the side.
Jasmine remained standing without saying a word while Anna simply tossed and tossed side by side, trying her best to deal with the cold.
She was so annoyed.
Eventually she sighed heavily, flung the blanket she had been using and turned to Jasmine.
"Fine! Give me the bloody meal!" Anna swore and snatched the plate of food from Jasmine’s arm.
Jasmine smiled at her. "Good night."
Anna pulled the carriage door and slammed it shut with a loud bang.
Jasmine and turned away from the carriage knowing that she had won.
She looked at the men and saw that most of them were asleep snoring and done with eating.
She sighed to herself once again and made sure that she had cleared everything and put it in place.
She was not confident with herself as she believed that she smelled very very badly.
So she gathered her things and went out to look for a lake to take a bath .
She slowly went past Xaden’s tent and heard him speaking to Erik .
She overheard them speaking about traveling to the mages city.
She crossed her brows and then turned away, and walked on down the bushy path .
She heard some noises and then she turned to her side alert.
None other than Kire hoped out of the bushes.
She laughed to herself and placed her hand on her chest a sigh of relief .
"Oh it’s you Kire." She said with a smile and ruffled his ears. "I’m looking for a lake do you know any nearby?"
Kire wagged his tail and raced off.
She went after him and then she finally came to a halt when she saw a dry beach and beautiful water.
Kire was already playing around and splashing in the water.
She stripped and then with a smile on her face walked down until she had her entire body inside.
