Betrayed by an alpha claimed by a lycan king

Chapter 19 TITUS

I don't know how I managed to endure that awkward breakfast with Jane and the other consorts.

As expected, Isabelle didn't mention anything about my absence last night. I was scheduled to spend the night in her chamber, yet I found myself in the arms of another Woman.

Sleeping with these women has always been a matter of duty. They are all young and beautiful, making it easy enough to fulfill my obligations. Yet, ever since that night with Sage, I've found it increasingly difficult to muster any enthusiasm.

It's surprising there haven't been any rumors about my supposed impotence by now. That one encounter with Sage has lingered in my mind, casting a shadow over all others. The memory of her touch, her scent, and her very presence seems to have ignited a fire within me that refuses to be quenched by anyone else.

Sitting at the table, I forced myself to engage in polite conversation, pretending to enjoy the meal and the company. All the while, my thoughts kept drifting back to Sage. I can't help but be worried upon thinking about her condition. I haven't heard any news about her from Scott. The consorts, each vying for my attention, seemed almost like strangers. Their charm, which once made the duty bearable, now felt hollow and meaningless. The memory of Sage's touch haunted me, making it clear that no one else could compare. Inwardly, I sighed, knowing that my growing disinterest would not go unnoticed forever. Especially by the queen, who never hides her ambition of being my chosen luna.

"I'm glad you could join us for breakfast this morning, Your Majesty," Jane said, breaking the silence that had settled over the grand dining hall. Her voice was warm, but there was an edge to it that I couldn't ignore. "It's too bad that Lady Sage can't join us. I heard from her attendants that she caught some flu." I forced myself to look uninterested, even though my heart ached at the thought of Sage suffering. "Then it's a good thing she isn't here, my queen. At least you're safe from harm," I said nonchalantly.

The queen was infamous for her jealousy, especially when it came to the other consorts. If she suspected I was giving Sage special attention, it would not end well for her.
