"How is the King?" Sebastian asked when he watched Lilac emerged from the King's chamber.
The last night fight had been known to everyone in this castle and Maximus's body had been burned, he was named as a traitor and died for challenging the alpha position. His mate had been informed and she wanted to meet the king to know what exactly had happened.
After all, his mate had been away for a year because of the king's order, but the moment he came back, the first news that she got was Maximus had been executed for treason.
She deserved the explanation that she wanted, but that should wait, because right now, there was another important thing to take care of.
"He is still recovering from his injuries, " Lilac replied.
"It is impossible!" Kyle shouted."How could the wound not heal even after one night? We are not like you, " he spoke in derision while looking at Lilac. fre𝑒𝘸𝑒𝑏𝗻ov𝐞l - 🅽🅽novel
Here it goes again.
Lilac really couldn't understand this highborn Lycan for thinking of the guardian angel as low as they could when the truth was telling them otherwise.
Probably, it was what they always said; you could defeat them, but to gain their respect was something else entirely.
"I am very glad to know that we are not the same kind." Lilac used the same tone as Kyle when she replied."I want someone to call the best healer in the city."
Lilac watched Sebastian, Kyle and Warlock didn't even budge from their position, they even acted as if they were not hearing anything.
"You, " Lilac nodded to the guard that positioned not so far from the chamber."Call the best healer in the city."
If the three of them were too arrogant to take orders, then Lilac would give orders to someone else. She didn't have the time and patience to deal with their rude attitude.
"He will not take order from you. He is the king's guard." Sebastian enunciated every word clearly, as though if he didn't do that, Lilac couldn't understand him.
From the corner of Lilac's eyes, she could see Warlock and Kyle sneered, but it made the guardian angel smiled too.
Lilac flashed a warm and gentle smile as she spoke."Then he will take order from no one." Lilac locked her eyes on the guard."Do you know that I am the king's mate and your future queen? Do you know what happened to those people who disobeyed direct order?" She stared at the three generals as well.
"I will find the healer, your grace." The guard was about to excuse himself when Warlock raised his hand to stop him.
"What do you want to say? The king of the lycanthrope needs a healer?" Warlock looked at Lilac questioningly."It is the king that we are talking about. There is no way he needs a healer."
"If the words about the king's sickness circulated among the people, it will cause another commotion and problem, we have already enough of it." Kyle chimed in."The king has never been sick."
Lilac crossed her arms and raised her chin defiantly."He is now."
"You must have done something to him." Sebastian narrowed his eyes as he talked to her accusingly.
They had been waiting in front of Jedrek's chamber since the sun had not yet risen and the only thing that prevented them from barging inside the room was because they Lyrus and Eaton didn't allow them. It was the king chamber after all and the king was with his queen.
However, hearing the king was ill was beyond reason and they felt they had to confirm it.
"I did something to him?" Lilac asked incredulously and chuckled."Can't you hear the irony in your words? I am the weakest creature in you perception." Lilac threw them a nasty look before she continued."Hurt the strongest creature in this realm, until he can't recover, " Lilac snickered and shook her head."At least be consistence with your accusation."
After Lilac said that, there were deep growls from the three generals in front of her and the guard didn??t move to carry out Lilac's order.
"Calm down..." Lilac stepped aside and revealed the closed door behind her."If you want to go inside, go on, " She said casually and waved her hand to the door handle.
However, this sudden change of attitude made the general frowned.
"But, Jedrek doesn't want to see you. He said he will burn the first person who entered the room, " Lilac looked at them sharply.
Sebastian sneered."He doesn't want to see us, his generals, and let you come and go as you wish?"
"Precisely, " Lilac nodded.
"If you want to lie, do it in more convincing way!" Warlock snarled, he was still upset for being trapped by Lilac's power for hours last night."What made you think that we would believe that?"
"I am your queen. Disrespecting me means you disrespect your king." Lilac needed to think another way to make them respected her. She had been saying this a few time and they were still talking to her in the same manner.
"You don't have a coronation yet, " Kyle hissed. He glared at Lilac.
"With or without the coronation, I am still your Luna. Your Alpha's mate." Lilac was squinted her eyes."Go on and let we see, what the consequence that you will get for disobeying the Alpha's direct order.
Actually, Jedrek never mentioned anything about this. Lilac just made up this order because of what Jedrek said last night.
==============
"You leave very early, don't you?"
The voice behind Serefina startled the witch, especially when her mind was somewhere else. She turned around and snapped at Calleb."Can all of you, Lycan, stop bothering me?!"
Calleb shrugged his shoulder."I just woke up and saw you."
Serefina groaned. Torak and Calleb had been bothering her about leaving, but now, when she was about to leave, she had to meet Calleb. Great!
