Chapter Forty: Another Confrontation!

She was aware of Vallus' many affairs but she had never caught him in the act. Her anger knew no bounds as she stood there frozen in place watching Vallus who seemed to be enjoying himself too much. She took a deep breath in. She did not trust Vallus not to demand rites to severe their mateship and she was not going to let the prophecy of her being mated to the ordinary come true so she willed herself to walk away without causing a scene.

As Adelaide returned to the party she made up her mind not to have her revenge. If Vallus could cheat on her so could she. She was a beautiful woman, in fact one of the most beautiful in Aysun and beyond. Any other man would have been grateful to have her as her mate so she was not going to allow Vallus' selfishness ruin the ball for her.
