Chapter 33

*****Dani's POV*****

"Dani you looked like a real life princess yesterday!" Viv states as she stares up at me with adoration causing me to giggle.

"Thank you Viv that's so sweet!" I smile at her as she skips off with Tori heading towards the white sand beach ahead.

"She didn't stop talking about you yesterday and how pretty you are!" Anna laughs, as she smiles at me now.

"Tori was the same! They already love you!" Sophie smiles next, as we step foot onto the beach seeing that it wasn't too busy.

I was welcome in Axels family already and it made me feel warm inside. I wish I had this back home... but I'm grateful that I can at least experience it here!

We stop to place our towels down on some free sun loungers, watching as the two girls start to dig and build sand castles with their dolls beside them.

"No, no, no!" I hear Belle mumble beside me almost inaudibly, as I turn to see her face planted in her hands.

"What's bothering you?" I question curiously, glancing around for a clue.

"Isabella, Zayna and Wren are over there at the beach hut!" She complains, as Anna and Sophie go off to apply sun screen to the girls whilst they continue to play.

I turn to spot the three of them, laughing and sitting with some guys in the skimpiest of swim suits. The five men seem to be overly amused by their company too.

"They won't come over don't worry! Especially with Anna here!" I encourage, as she nods steadily realising that I was probably right.

I believe Anna and Sophie would totally kick their asses if they did try anything today. I felt more than safe being here with them!

"Girls will you go over and grab us some drinks! Tell the staff to put it on Kyron's tab!" Anna chirps over to us as she wrestles with Viv to put the cream on her face.

I turn to see Belle pale instantly at her request. Spoke too soon…

"Yeah sure! What will I order?" I question, before the silence became awkward.

"A water for me and Viv please." She asks, nodding to Sophie to place her order next.

"I'll have an Ice Latte and just a water for Tori please." She smiles over.

"Then get whatever you both want girls!" She chimes, beginning to apply the cream to her own arms.

"I'll be fine with a water too!" I smile, as Belle nods slightly in agreement.

"We've got this!" I state to Belle as I take her hand to stand her up. I then gently pull her to begin walking as she complies nervously.

"M-Maybe I should... cover up first..." She mumbles awkwardly, placing her free hand across her flat stomach in shame.

"Don't you dare! You look amazing!" I retaliate as we get closer. I wasn't lying either she had the perfect figure and her bikini was extremely flattering.

The only thing I dreaded as we neared the hut was having to pass by their table. They hadn't noticed us yet as Zayna sat on one of the guys knees making out with him whilst Isabella and Wren flirted with the rest.

"We will be quick don't worry!" I encourage as we step onto the wooden platform and head for the bar - successfully passing their table with ease.

"We made it alive!" I tried to joke, as Belle fidgeted with one of the rings on her hand. We were too close for comfort now...

"Ladies?" The man questions, gaining my attention as I turn to see him smiling.

"Oh um... one Ice Latte and four waters please... oh and we've to put it on Kyrons tab!" I almost forget to add that on since I didn't have any money myself to pay.

"I see you girls came with Luna Anna! That's no problem." He nods with a smile, going off to start the Latte.

"Oh fuck I just had to witness it up close for myself... there is a beached whale in the snack hut after all!" We hear a sharp snort come from behind us followed by numerous chuckles...

I turn slowly to be faced with Isabella - the evident Queen bitch herself as she chews on her gum eyeing me cautiously.

"Luna." She states with disgust lacing the word.

I notice that Belle remains facing the bar, too nervous to face the witch and her goons. The way they managed to make Belle feel seriously infuriated me.

"What whale are you referring to?" I question, knowing already what she had implied with the comment.

Her eyes narrow slightly at my response, as I try my best to remain brave for Belle despite being the least intimidating human to ever exist.

"Oh... well I turned around and the sun sort of got in my eye, you know? And at first I nearly fainted thinking there was a dead whale over here! But once I came over I realised it was just Belle... my bad! The figures from afar are quite similar!" She smirks, chewing the gum to one side as the other two girls snigger.

She was seriously annoying. There wasn't even a pick on Belle either - not that it matters what she looks like - but they were just trying to get under her skin...

“Yes we are lucky it wasn't a real whale then aren’t we... I would hate to have to ruin my poor Axels day by telling him about this incident! Or better yet I would hate to bring Anna over here to check things out herself!" I smile innocently, hoping that they take my slight sarcastic threat and leave us alone.

I watch as she thinks for a moment as the nearby men seem to disperse at the mention of Axel.

Good.

"Have a nice day Luna." She perks up after a moment, having probably figured she was close to overstepping.

I inwardly do a little happy dance feeling accomplished - what a bitch.

"Mom! Mom! Look it was them! Those are the girls who stole my dolly and ripped off her head!" I hear a familiar voice boom out, as we all turn to see Viv stomping over - sunglasses on - with both hands on her hips followed by Anna.

"Are you sure sweetheart?" Anna raises an eyebrow, staring at the three girls opposite us in disbelief.

She looked pissed already.

Were they seriously the ones who did that to her doll? Surely they wouldn't do that to a little girl - especially Axels baby sister!

"I'm really positive it was them! It was totally them Mom!" Viv states with a sharp nod, coming to stand by my side. Belle now too turning to witness the scene.

"Girls?!" Anna steps forward, folding her arms awaiting a response as I look up to see all of their faces bright red and full of fear.

I could seriously laugh at them right now but I wasn't brave enough to draw attention to myself in their stare off!

"Oh no Luna... no we didn't know... uhh... we didn't know who she was!" Isabella begins to ramble, evident terror ripping across her features.

"So what you're basically telling me is... that you wouldn't have done it if you knew she was my daughter... but if it had been a random little girl then that would make it ok!" Anna snaps back, showing me a completely new side to her. She was fierce and ready to kill these girls!

"N-No... it's not what I meant... we were... we were playing a game with her and she ripped the dolls head off herself... she said she would tell on us but we never done anything... so we hid it in the bush!" Zayna speaks up for the first time, as Isabella scrambles to find her voice.

"So now my daughter is lying?!" Anna seethes, as Viv looks up to me in disbelief with her mouth open. I almost laughed at her 'oh no she didn't' face but I bit it back.

"Well I mean, we didn't do anything to the doll it wasn't us." Zayna shrugs, trying to play cool as I watch Anna cautiously for her next move.

Anna walks closer to them slowly, roaming her eyes up and down the girls in sheer disgust as they squirm under her gaze.

"I order you three to stay the FUCK away from my daughter and the rest of our family - including your new Luna, Belle and anyone else that we are close to - especially our children! You have proved yourselves to be horrible, bitchy girls and If this order is not followed... then believe me when I say I will have the three of you banished from this pack instantly - do I make myself absolutely clear?!" Anna speaks in Isabella's face, glancing at the other two from time to time as she speaks - never breaking eye contact.

She didn't have to scream and shout to show her authority. After seeing her like this I knew never to mess with her In the future.

"Yeah! Horrible bitchy girls!" Viv speaks up next, copying the exact words her Mom had used as I fail to hold back my laugh now.

I burst out with loud laughter, Belle now sniggering too as Viv folds her arms and pops a hip sassily. She was honestly just too cute and funny!

"Leave!" Anna grits out, as the girls practically scramble over one another to run off.

"I cannot believe they did that to her! Am I overreacting?!" Anna turns to us next, her voice now softening as she helps us grab the water from the counter along with the Latte.

"No not at all! They haven’t seemed friendly or welcoming since I got here but doing that to Viv is just the icing on the cake! They seem to have a serious problem." I inform her as she nods in thought.

"I will keep an eye on this trust me! If they say anything else to either of you then let me know instantly!" Anna states, as myself and Belle nod.

Maybe I should convince Belle to tell Anna how they treat her... she could really help.
