A Mate For The Last Lycan-Chapter 206: MARCHING FORWARD
Chapter 206: MARCHING FORWARD
Zuri was going to Little Red town with Rhett’s warrior. She didn’t want to be anywhere near Rhett, but this was the safest and the easiest way for her to travel. She couldn’t delay this any longer, she needed to meet with Khaos, or else, her world was going to fall apart.
"Your hand has not healed?" Caiden pointed out her hand that was still in bandage.
After her outburst two days ago, she accidentally harmed Shadow and herself. Right now, the wolf was fine, but he needed to recuperate a little bit longer. She wouldn’t stop blaming herself if something happened to Shadow.
"Yes, I think I lost my healing ability," Zuri said, staring at her bandaged right hand and then continued to pack her thing. They were going to leave at dawn, which meant, it was eight hours from now. "Have you packed your things?"
"That’s bad." Caiden furrowed his brows. "Yeah, I have packed my thing."
Zuri was grateful that Caiden would go with her, though Gayle had to stay in the pack house, to guard the place with Ezra. She was also glad that she could get away from Caiden’s father and mother.
Ezra and Mabel, of course, made a fuss because they didn’t want Caiden to leave with Zuri. They insisted that Zuri was not stable and she could do more harm than good if she went ahead to the front battlefield.
Yet, they didn’t want her to be in this pack either.
’Go back to your pack.’
That was Mabel’s answer when Zuri snapped back at her for giving her a headache. She wanted her to go back to her pack and stay there. freēnovelkiss.com
’You can kill anyone there. You are crazy after all.’
And that was it. Zuri felt like she was going to snap her delicate neck when Caiden came and dragged her away before she could fulfill her dream.
"Khaos will not like this."
"Do you want to say that Khaos will not like to see his mate close to him?" Zuri narrowed her eyes. "I will tell him that you said that."
"That’s not what I meant. I meant he will not like it if you put yourself in danger. The battlefield is not a place for you."
"Oh, please. I am a better fighter than you."
Caiden fumed when he was reminded that he lost every fight against her. Well, that was a little bit humiliating, but in his defense, he was not being serious when he fought her. "I couldn’t afford to hurt you because Khaos will have my head."
Zuri chuckled to hear such lame excuse. "Whatever that could make you sleep better at night."
"I am serious. I am one of the best warriors," Caiden insisted.
"Okay." Zuri nodded.
And as they talked idly, the twin and Rian entered the bedroom, they were carrying white little wolf, a pup. Apparently, Mac had another litter, this was Shadow’s sibling.
"Mac has another litter?" Zuri frowned at the small pup. She remembered Shadow was that size when Gayle sent him to her the first time. It felt like a lifetime ago. "What this one’s name?"
"Mackenzie Gracelyn Mordechai the fifth." Otis reiterated the name with glee.
"Basically, another Mac." Zuri scrunched her nose, she remembered when Khaos mentioned Mac’s name for the first time when they met in the palace. This was also felt like a distance memory.
"Where are you going?" Mave approached Zuri, while Rian was sitting obediently on a chair, he was limping when he walked and the twin had to slow down, so he could catch up with them. It amazed her that they could get along really well. "Are you going to meet with the alpha?"
"Yes," Zuri replied, he put away her bag when Mave tried to open it, curious to see what was inside.
"Can I go with you too?" Otis asked, he sat down on the floor, the little pup on his lap, as he caressed its white fur.
"Obviously, no." Caiden crossed his arms.
As if on cue, Otis and Mave started whining. "Why?!"
And the bickered between the sibling started, while Zuri watched them with a small smile curled on the corner of her lips.
Once upon a time, years ago when she didn’t know anything better, when thing was slightly easier for her, she had this kind of petty bickering with Rhett too.
Despite everything that he had done to her, despite how he had hurt her and used her, manipulated her, he was her brother.
Once upon a time, he was her favorite brother, even though right now, Zuri was clear that she would use Rhett as a sacrifice if it meant she could gain something from his death.
The next day, Zuri left to Little Red town with Caiden and Rhett, along with his five thousand warriors, they came from the cult, they were joining Khaos, but there were more warriors would come from River Creek pack.
This move was a declaration that River Creek pack had defected the kingdom. They supported the new king, the lycan king. Rebuilt the old dynasty.
And when this news reached Dacre, he was so livid. He thrashed everything within his reach and gathered all of his advisors, but neither of them could give him any satisfaction answer.
"There are more elders deflected to alpha Khaos’s campaign. Right now, Little Red town was already pushed back and they marched toward Moon River city. This is our biggest city in Blackthorne pack. If this city fell, it will be easier for them to march into the heart of Blackhtorne pack."
Leonard gave the report after a long meeting with the king’s adviser, which didn’t give any satisfying result.
"Call Rose! I want to know when the warrior from Wolfdale kingdom will be here!" Dacre was furious and Leonard immediately went to get someone to fetch Rose.
Right now, Logan was already in the battlefield, joined the rank with royal gamma Luca.
Soon after, Rose was already in his study room.
