"Soon you're expecting a child. Congratulations!"
Rebecca just looked at Teresa in a disguise and said, "Your visions are not even clear. Why are you so full of yourself?"
Teresa just laughed hard, and Rebecca was so annoyed with her that she could not stop turning her delicate hands into fists to restrain herself from doing something that she would never like.
"Are my visions not that clear? Or you're just pissed that I already figured you out, before you could ever figure yourself out."
Rebecca was lost for words as a result of the memory replaying in her mind.
"My visions were right. She did turn against you."
Rebecca felt betrayed, but she also felt vengeance as her heart mourned her broken heart.
Teresa disappeared from thin air and Rebecca was left as she fell on her knees and cried silently.
"A beautiful girl like you doesn't deserve something like this."
A sooting voice can be heard out of nowhere, making Rebecca stand up on her feet and look around.
She was catching her breath as she started to feel fear.
"Who's there?"
A woman appeared with glowing skin.
Her dress was transparent at the hem, making an illusion that she was floating.
A woman walked towards Rebecca, making her step backwards.
"What are you doing here?"
Rebecca began to tremble because she had just seen this woman, "You're not allowed to be here."
The balcony that was located above the ballroom hall was gloomy after the big blinds were closed and the glow that was coming from the woman filled the hall, but Rebecca didn't pay attention to it as she was focused on the maiden in front of her.
The maiden chuckled. "Are you even aware that no one obeys you inside this castle?"
Rebecca was taken aback because there was nothing wrong with what this woman said.
She was correct; she was still the queen for a few months before the new Luna took over, but she was being treated as an outcast, which she had never expected in her entire life.
As Rebecca's eyes trembled and tears started to fall, the beautiful woman looked at her and said, "You'll need more help than I thought."

Inside the forest, there is another palace. This palace was named "The Home of the Elders."
The people who come here have a lot of concerns and would like clarification on all the policies that Axel is implementing within their community.
It was to learn if the said declared proclamation was legitimate.
The Elders are known for being the guides of the next generation in the first of the coming century.
The highest elder was Ernesto, the second one was Rodolfo, and the last one was Rogelio.
They were the ones who shaped what and how the Lycan King now tells him about anything and everything he needs to know.
They are the power of the civilization that has held for the past 280 years.
So pretty much all of those people who oppose Axel's proclamation will only listen to the Elders, even if they were just there to guide and teach Axel.
After you enter the big door, you will see three chairs where the elderly are having a discussion.
Rodolfo said while tossing some pictures of Sophie that were captured from different angles and said, "This is outrageous!"
"Who would have thought that this girl would be an Omega with skin like a fresh Luna!"
The picture was taken where Sophie had a lot of mud on her body and face, a picture where she looked like a rug.
Rogelio was not talking and, as of the moment, was looking and waiting for whatever statement his fellow leaders could give to their growing community.
Ernesto said with disbelief, "And your point is?"
Rodolfo was stunned, not knowing where the pointless question his brother threw came from, and said, "My point is we need a new queen who can handle every obstacle!"
"We don't need someone who's just a trophy to be displayed!"
Rodolfo stood up and started to pace with his hand placed on his back, looking at the maiden that was inside their room, and said, "Are you certain that this girl has the rank that was lowest?"
"Rebecca?"
Rebecca was uncertain but she didn't know, but she took the risk since Sophie didn't show them her fur, so they didn't know how to believe it.
Rebecca's mouth was ready to utter a word.
"How can we be certain that she's not capable of doing something because we decided that this is the only thing she can and could do?" Ernesto said, without moving an inch.
Rebecca was stunned.
Ernesto used to be the most picky of the three when it came to having a queen, but now he was smitten by the new queen.
Rebecca scoffed. "Wow, the table has turned. I didn't know you were so easily captured by beauty."
"I hope you didn't do the same for me."
Ernesto didn't flinch as he was being lectured by the previous Luna.
He couldn't even explain everything he felt while meeting Sophie for a short time, but it was worth it.
Ernesto was taken aback when the new one called him My Lord, and it was really surprising.
Low ranks don't have respect for them because of their remorse that they were the ones who proclaimed a prophecy that an Omega should be killed, with or without a sin or broken rules, when in fact they weren't.
Rogelio said in a calm tone, "I think Brother Ernesto is right; we shouldn't cut someone's capabilities and we can't let someone prove something that we can prove ourselves."
Ernesto calmly faced Rebecca, who was standing in the middle of the tiles that were patterned like a circle.
Rogelio was quite convinced that even the most trusted Luna could fabricate something that was from a previous queen.
"You can come back when you have certain proof of your claim," Rogelio said.
And Ernesto looked at her and said, "And we are no longer available for you. You are dismissed."
Rebecca couldn't help but feel belittled. She didn't know how many times she felt embarrassed.
She stepped out, and Rodolfo stood up.
He said, "You better be right, because otherwise I have nothing else to do but blame you two."

"So are you going to help me like the old times?" Rebecca mumbled as she poked her fingers into a man's chest.
The old man couldn't help but gulp. As he looked at Rebecca's figure, he couldn't help but lust after the woman in front of him.
Rebecca approached his ear and said, "Answer me, Rodolfo."
"Yes, my dear."
"I will." Rodolfo said in almost a whisper and started to kiss Rebecca's neck.
She then moved the old man away from her and placed her pointy finger in his mouth to apply saliva and scratch the old man's lips.
Rebecca left her with a bitter smile on her face, knowing that the vicious seed she planted in her mind would sprout when the time came.
