Chapter 118

There was a big announcement just two days after the ruined ceremony in the palace.

Guards started beating the huge gongs early in the morning, even before the sun could hit the horizon, and the sound echoed for exactly seven times throughout the entire capital city. It indicated there would be an execution in seven days‘ time.

Punishing a person in such a high profile manner would only happen when the crime they committed was far too incomprehensible, so the people couldn’t help but wonder what actually had that person done to deserve it.

However, they didn’t need to beat themselves up about the details of the culprit or his crime for too long, because the royal warriors and guards did a good job updating every single person in the city.

Even before the sun could reach high above their heads, no matter if it was a high ranking shifter or the common man, the only news on their lips was how someone from the royal council committed treason.

There wouldn’t even be any investigation for such a crime and usually the culprit would be executed publicly at the gallows in a week after they were found to be a traitor, tied to an execution pole on a high platform, where they could be seen by everyone clearly.

Naturally, there was an uproar among the people both because it had been quite some time since they saw someone getting punished in the gallows and also, it was soon revealed that the attack by the rogues on the palace during the coronation of their new queen was actually instigated by this person.

“They say he did such a thing because King Micah didn’t reject his own mate and take his daughter, Ruby, as hi chosen mate.”

“Someone said he sneaked in a few rogues to abduct the new queen because he failed the first time…”
