A Mate For The Last Lycan-Chapter 188: LET HIM FIXED IT
Chapter 188: LET HIM FIXED IT
The news about the lycan spread far and wide, sending turmoil among the people. Though, it was still a form of rumor, but people stopped coming to River Creek pack and the pack member started to avoid Khaos. They were afraid of him.
The younger generation only knew that the lycan was barbaric, the old dynasty was being trampled because of their cruelty.
The story that spread among the people portrayed the lycan as a dynasty of a tyran and the previous king from the three kingdoms were the hero, who had trampled the regime.
"Not you too," Khaos said in impassive tone, he controlled his voice, but it only meant one thing; the alpha was livid. He was enraged and if it was not for the fact that Bryden was his beta for a long time, he would have killed him right there and then.
Bryden was sprawling on the floor, but he immediately scrambled to his feet, as he begged for Khaos’s forgiveness. He didn’t dare to raise his head to meet with the alpha’s eyes.
"You are being comfortable and you thought we are friend," Khaos enunciated every word calmly, which only told the beta the amount of anger that the alpha was holding back right now, he was trembling. Since he knew his mistake, he messed up a big time. "You are a disappointment."
"I am sorry, alpha. I thought I was doing the right thing..." Bryden said hastily. It was so rare to see the beta was so flustered, but who was not in the face of the lycan’s wrath, everyone wouldn’t remain unfazed.
Bryden had delayed the order to kill Killian and now that man spoke about their secret. About everything that he knew, which meant a lot. Killian had been with Khaos since the beginning and he knew a lot of things.
That was why, once Khaos learned that he was a lost cause, he ordered to get rid of him, but Bryden came up with his brilliant idea and delayed the murder, which left them with this chaos.
He was remorseful, but then there was no point for that, the damage had been done. People was aware of his existence. They learned about the lycan, but not in Khaos’s term. It threw him off his game and he was understandably enraged by his beta incompetence.
"You thought..." Khaos repeated the words and it only made Bryden shuddered with the animosity that laced in his voice. "You think you are better than me? Or do you think you are a better decision maker and an alpha than me?"
Bryden shook his head vigorously, denying Khaos’s words. It was a small mishap, a misjudgment in Bryden’s part, but it was critical and caused serious damage.
"I wouldn’t dare..."
They were in the study room, where Rhett, Dezgar and Gayle stood on the side, watching everything unfolded. They didn’t dare to make a peep, knowing their alpha would have none of it. The tension was very thick and it suffocated them.
"You crossed the line," Khaos said through his gritted teeth. He stared at Bryden, thinking of a punishment, he was tempted to skin him alive to let them knew that he didn’t appreciate their attempt to think that they knew better what to do than him.
Ezra had done it and now it was Bryden. The cult was not completely in his grasp yet, though Dezgar leaned more to him, but he still couldn’t figure out, who was the true leader of the cult, because a seal had been put to all of them.
"I know, I know. Let me fix this, give me a second chance," Bryden begged, pleaded for Khaos’s mercy. He didn’t want to be kicked out of the room and even more to be demoted like what Khaos had done to Caiden.
He had dedicated his whole life for this mission, he didn’t know what to do if he was liberated from this responsibility, little did he know, Khaos wanted to kill him instead of liberating him.
However, before Khaos could say something, someone opened the door and strode inside with leisure step, as if she was not affected by the tension in the room.
She looked fresh with her hair tied up into a messy bun on top of her head, she looked healthier compared to the last few months. Her black eyes shone brighter.
"Let him fix this," Zuri said, she came to Khaos’s side and kissed his cheek. She must be very ignorant to be very affectionate with Khaos when he displayed a strong murderous intention.
Yet, to their surprised, the alpha looked a little bit relax with her by his side. The tension dissipated gradually.
Khaos said nothing, indicating that Zuri could say whatever idea she had in her mind.
"Send him to Wolfdale kingdom." Zuri walked toward Bryden and this time the beta lifted his head, he dared to look at her in the eyes, because she was not Khaos. "Send them as our delegation to talk term with king Amidas."
"That’s a suicide mission, seeing the situation right now, they will kill me even before I stepped into their territory," Bryden said with a frown. That was an odd request from Zuri, as if she wanted to get rid of him.
Probably that was Zuri’s intention.
But then, Zuri continued speaking as if Bryden had not yet interrupted her. "If he succeeded, we can get Wolfdale kingdom, but if he did not, they might kill him before he could even step his foot in their territory."
"You are giving me a death sentence."
"Don’t look at me like that, Bryden," Zuri said languidly, she looked dangerous when she smiled wickedly at him.
Zuri lowered her body slightly, so they were on the same eye level, since Bryden had been kneeling down.
"I am not the one, who has betrayed Khaos."
"I didn’t betray the alpha!" Bryden growled, he didn’t like the term. freeweɓnøvel.com
"Tone it down, beta, both of us knew that’s a betrayal."
