Shifted Fate (Amy) novel Chapter 437

Chapter 437

“Hello Nina.” I grinned as I faced her fully. “So rude to charge in here and demand why I am here.” I tilted my head. “Why are you

here?”

She snarled. “I go here.”

I felt my grin turn a little predatory. “That’s right, you didn’t graduate yet.” She growled again, but I shrugged. “I get it, hard course and all.” I tilted my head. “But why are you here?” She snapped her teeth at me and I felt my eyes flash. “I might not come here anymore, but I will give you a bit of grace and tell you to remember who you’re snapping at.

She seemed to talk a minute to hear my words before she snapped her mouth shut again. I watched her anger simmer behind her eyes, but she just nodded, more to herself than me. “I don’t need to answer you.”

“That is true.” I walked closer to her. “You don’t need to speak with me.”

“But you have to explain yourself to me.” Sterling’s voice was glacial. “Now, since you won’t answer Alpha Amy’s question, I’m going to demand you answer mine. Why are you here Alpha Nina?”

She spun around, and I watched as she tried to puff up. “Who do you think you are speaking to me like this?” She took a step up to him. “I’m…” She looked at me and I watched her mouth tighten. But she didn’t say anything else.

I walked up behind her. “You’re what, Nina?” I sidled up next to her. “You can’t say you are the next queen now, can you?” I smirked. “Not since the King announced his engagement.” I tilted my head. “Now, what is your rise to power? Is it your uncle’s position on the council? No, can’t be that. He’s dead. Your sisters‘ power was next in line? Has she actually taken over the chair?” I smirked as she paled. “What could you possibly wield over all of us this time?”

She stuttered. “I’m an alpha in my own right.” She sneered before she turned back to Sterling. “You’re just a guard.”

I snorted. “He is a royal gamma.” I cut a look at her out the side of my eyes. “You do realize that, right?”

“He’s a gamma.” She sneered.

“A royal one.” I turned to face her. “I have the distinct feeling you don’t understand the difference.”

Sterling crossed his arms. “Not many do.” He looked her up and down. “I am as polite as I am because of my position. But you

have run my patience dry, Alpha Nina.”

She snarled. “You don’t get to talk to me like that.” She pointed to his face. “Royal pack or not, you are a lowly gamma, barely a

step up from being unranked. You are pathetic.” I threw my head back and laughed as Sterling’s face settled in cold, calculating lines. She whirled on me. “Why are you laughing?”

“Because you are stupider than I had originally thought.” I strode to Sterling’s side. “You were so obsessed with Rowan, only to

get tossed away. And now you are here, insulting his guard and friend.”

She looked between us. “You’re bluffing. He’s just a gamma!” She shrieked at me.

“I honestly think you never pay attention in school.” She growled, but stayed silent. “Let me spell it out for you.” She crossed her

arms and waited. But I could tell on her face that she didn’t expect me to say anything of importance.

“Go on then.” She smirked. “Tell me how important this gamma is.”

I smirked. “What do you know of the royal pack?”
