The Alpha's Unwanted Bride-Chapter 419: GREAT POISON

Lisa looked at the clear liquid inside the very tiny vial.

It was crystal clear and looked as harmless as water.

It also had no taste and was going to be hard for anyone to detect any abnormalities but it was in fact dangerous.

A very dangerous poison that would do what needed to be done.

She had no idea where Lily and Anna had gotten it from, but she had been given the task to make sure it got into Jasmine’s morning tea while Lily tried her best to distract her.

One drop, Lily had specifically said was going to be enough. Two and the tea would smell and give away its impurities.

So she had to do it in the most careful way possible.

It had surprised her that she was getting this instruction from Lily and not Anna.

She had always seen Lily to be docile and a good enough Luna material, never to dabble in anything but.

But lo and behold, she had been wrong for the first time in a long time.

And how perfect it would be for Jasmine to drink the tea, at night she would scream and bleed as she lost the baby.

And not just her baby, but her life to and Jasmine would be no more.

She opened the Vial and hesitated for a moment.

She hated Jasmine. Despised her and wanted her gone.

A nobody who had been a torn in her flesh for such a goddamn long time it way overdue and yet Lisa considered it.

If Jasmine died she would have to get rid of Lily too.

Only then and there would she be able to claim her rightful place as future Luna of the pack.

But Jasmine needed to go.

It was the first step to her plan Falling into place.

Lisa took in a deep breath and looked around there was still some noise outside.

She herself had no idea what was going on, but she had taken advantage of the commotion.

Lisa tipped over the vial and gently put in precisely one drop inside the tea.

The moment the drop went into the tea, a flash of darkness erupted from the tea, startling Lisa and then diving back into the tea.

Her hand was on her chest as she breathed and her heart race terrified.

She looked back down at the tea to see that it was perfectly normal. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

There was no sign that it had been tampered with.

She picked up the spoon that was beside the beautiful tea cup and stirred to make sure that there was no stone unturned.

Then she gently set it back aside.

She put the vial back inside her pockets and stepped away from the tray, breathing fast.

She had done much worse things but why was she also tensed for something as simple as just poisoning a tea.

When she was certain that everything she had met was in place, she turned to leave the room and heard footsteps approach along with chatter.

Lisa froze for half a second before darting to the pantry door, easing it open and slipping behind the shelves of flour and dried roots just as the kitchen door creaked open again.

Nanny Nia reentered, huffing and muttering, "They can’t ever keep their mouths shut. Just rumors. That’s all."

Chef came in laughing.

"Welcome to the crescent pack." He said. "You’re still new here so you would get used to it

She walked straight to the tea tray, her hands still slightly damp from wiping them on her apron.

"You know I was hoping that all those screams weren’t just stupid Lycans fighting each other in a dual but news of Apha Xaden or better still, Alpha Xaden himself arriving back to the pack. Jasmine has been so worried."

As she picked up the delicate teacup and sniffed the steam rising from it, her eyes narrowed.

Something felt off.

The aroma was right. The color too. But Nia had prepared Jasmine’s tea every day for a while now.

Something felt faintly wrong.

She set the cup down slowly.

"About Alpha Xaden?" Chef asked as he kneaded dough. "I’m sure he is fine. This is even better. One time we didn’t even see him for almost two months."

Nanny Nia’s eyes scanned the kitchen, no one was there.

But she couldn’t shake the instinct crawling up her spine like cold fingers. She reached for her tasting spoon and dipped it into the tea.

She was about to taste it when Chef interrupted.

"What the devil are you doing?" Chef asked. "Are you all of a sudden pregnant?"

"Goddess no." Nanny Nia argued.

"Well if you aren’t why are you taking Jasmine’s tea?" He rose a brow.

"I was just...." Nanny Nia started to explain and became annoyed at the fact that she was even explaining. "Mind your business chef."

And then she put the spoon aside and picked up her tray.

With that she went out of the kitchen, completely forgetting about her earlier suspicions.

Chef laughed and shook his head.

He went on with his duties for about ten minutes with some maids and other kitchen staff coming in and out.

Lisa, still in the pantry, had to press a hand to her chest to stop the panicked rhythm of her heart. She hadn’t expected Nanny Nia to be so... suspicious. But it was fine.

Thank the stars that she had taken it.

Eventually Lisa heard the final footstep leave the kitchen.

She remained standing for about two more minutes until she was certain that there was no one at all in the room.

Once she was out of the pantry, she hurried to the Island and picked up the spoon Nanny Nia had set aside and threw it away.

She couldn’t have anyone tasting the spoon. It would somehow find its way of pointing back to her.

And then Lisa hurried out of the kitchen and once again she had succeeded in carrying out one of her evil plans.
