He kept a dry face when she rushed towards him with an angry face."How could you be easily so deceived?" Lilith questioned, but instead, he pulled her into his right embrace, inhaling her scents and resting his chin on her shoulders.She sighed, hugging him back and rubbing his back slowly and gently at the same time."I don't need you to scold me right now, just hug me alone." He said, more like with a devastated voice."What happened?" Came Lilith's question without pulling out from the hug she knew that he needed."I hate refraining myself, but I'm beginning to do things because of you.""What do you mean? Did someone get you angry?" She asked, and finally pulled out from the hug to stare at his face."No, I won't lose you to anyone, nor will I let anyone hurt you."She smiled and leaned to give him a little peck on his cheek. "My king, the slave trainer is innocent, I think you were fooled by Ryder." Lilith said.Lucien furrowed his forehead when she said such, "What do you mean?
Earlier…The moment Lucien walked away from Lilith, he retired back to his throne room and sat on it to think for a bit.Sooner than he'd expected, Dargak marched in when Red had opened up the door for him.The moment Red opened the door and Dargak walked in, he smiled to himself before shutting the door."Alpha." Dargak greeted, lowering his head and his sword in respect for the king. Lucien then waved his hands in return even though his face wasn't looking at Dargak directly, but elsewhere."Alpha, I believe you heard from the slave princess, an innocent man has been killed to nothing." Dargak really refrained himself from saying more than that, because he was really angry. So angry that Lucien had trusted another person instead of him."If you had assigned that duty to me, maybe I would have gotten the real culprit instead." He bursted out.Lucien shifted his gaze to stare at Dargak, and once Dargak received his cold gaze, he immediately kept his mouth shut and stood upright, lowe
Earlier continues….."How's Dargak Bella?" Lilith asked the moment Bella walked back into her room. Only a loud sigh escaped Bella's lips when she took a seat beside Lilith."He still worries about the Alpha even after what he's going through right now.""Is he badly hurt?" Lilith asked again."Nope, just a few bruises, but he'll be fine soon. And,.we need to find a way to get him out soon, I don't want him staying there for too long." "The Alpha doesn't want to see anyone, he wants to be all alone and no matter how much I knock, he's refusing to let me in." "Bella, haven't you noticed anything weird about Red, he seems so off lately especially his eyes."Bella froze at Lilith's words."Red?" She called."No, I don't think I know what you're talking about, but I'll be sure to look out for anything suspicious."Lilith nodded her head at Bella's response, without suspecting if anything was wrong with Bella."Alright, should I try my luck once again, with the Alpha?"Bella nodded, "Yes
"Princess, princess." Bella called from afar as she ran heading towards Lilith's room while carrying a small bowl of water and a towel along with her It was still very early in the morning. Lilith stood up from the bed and stretched her body properly hearing her name loud and clear from Bella.She didn't give Bella a response, but remained silent on the bed giving a countdown when Bella would slam the door open."3" She counted last, and the door immediately opened with Bella walking in next."Princess." Bella called again.Lilith had to shook her head because Bella never seizes to really amaze her."What is it again Bella?" Lilith asked, still half asleep."Someone, someone was found dead this morning close to the palace gate."Just hearing this, Lilith forced her eyes fully open and rushed out of her bed. Her mind was still really processing what Bella had said, but she didn't bother thinking further, as she only ran behind Bella."Stand back." They both heard the angry voice of so
Chapter 66Baski soon walked into the Alpha's quarter and dropped the tray of food on the table.When Lilith saw her, she rushed towards her and hugged her. "Oh child, I heard you haven't been eating so well."Lilith didn't nod or shook her head to respond, but she only kept Baski in her embrace.""I haven't seen you in a while now." Baski patted her back so softly. "I know, child, I've been busy preparing medicines for future use." Baski replied.When Lilith pulled out of the embrace, she rushed towards where Baski had dropped the food and picked it from the tray. She took a fork, and dug into her meal hungrily."I heard about Dargak." Lilith's mood changed a little when Baski said that, but she still didn't stop eating."I'll talk to the Alpha today. He's down, and I really don't know how to bring up such right now.""You know child, Dargak's the only one capable of finding out the truth behind the guards death.""I know, he'll be out soon, believe me." Baski nodded her head, and
"Find out what happened to Loren, his body was found this morning in his position."Dargak was never told about Loren, and what had happened to him, but he shut his eyes to give a minute of silence to the dead. His hands were curled up into fist already, and his anger was evident in his forehead as he had furrowed it already.Lucien understood him, so he didn't say a word for a minute to Dargak. When it was now more than a minute, he opened up to speak."A spy might be in here as we speak, keep an eye on Lilith just in case." When Lucien turned to face the window, Dargak rose up on his feet."What about Ryder?" He asked."It's sure he's working for someone and not alone, leave him to me, I'll handle him."Dargak smiled, but he thought of not mentioning princess Elsa's name at least for now.He lowered his head again, and finally turned to walk out of the room.Once he was outside the room, and standing at the entrance, he ignored the presence of Red like before and walked away.Red c
"I found this inside the hole a sharp claw made in his stomach."The long nail was wrapped in a small piece of clothing, and he handed it over to Lucien. Examining it, Lucien raised one of his hands and brought out his sharp long claws. The size was just a little bit longer than the one Dargak had brought. He hid back his claws and dropped his hand back.Sitting back on his throne, the door opened and the elders all walked in.He immediately dismissed Dargak, and folded his hands together, to relax back comfortably. Once Dargak was out, an elder cleared his throat, and shook his head left, right, and back to stare at his fellow men."We all heard what happened with the slave trainer. Alpha, rumors are spreading like wildfire that you killed an innocent man who had done nothing.""Everyone seems to be suspecting something is wrong." Another said.Lucien paid rapt attention to them, giving an expressionless face in return."You have just one job to do." He replied, pointing at the first
Morning…Elsa was the first to lift herself from her bed once it was morning. When she turned to look beside her, Ryder was already gone. He was no longer on the bed with her.She mumbled some strange words, pained by the fact that she had made a big mistake with him. He was no strong man like she had expected, but rather, he was a weakling that didn't deserve to even come closer to her, or be aware of her next plans.She isn't a member of the silver moon pack, and still being the Alpha's mistress would never give her the power to take control over the silver moon pack once the Alpha is gone.At least, she needed someone, someone from in there to become her puppet. Not just anyone, but someone who has made a name for himself in the silver moon pack.Her day only brightened up because today,so many drama's would unfold, and she would watch Lucien shatter bit by bit untill he does something stupid right before everyone.She was really getting there, to where she wanted faster than usual
