Chapter 130.

Daran kept his hands in his pocket, looking indifferent.

“Danton was dead?” he asked.

“Yes, Alpha Daran. It happened last night.”

“And that is the reason that you came banging at my door this early in the morning?” Daran said coldly, “I am not interested. Go tell your King to leave us out of it.”

He moved to shut the door.

“A-Alpha Daran! Wait!” the soldier gasped, putting a hand on the doorframe to stop the door from closing up. “The King demanded your presence at the Counseling

Hall. He said that it was urgent…”

“Demanded?”

Daran chuckled darkly, “Who gives him the right to demand me to do anything?”

The soldier gulped nervously, too scared to look at Daran in the eyes.

When the King ordered to bring Daran to the Counseling Hall, none of the soldiers was willing to take up this difficult job.

If Daran refused to go with them, or if he was mad and decided to give them a hard time, there was absolutely nothing they could do about it.

Yet they couldn’t obey the King’s order.

The soldier froze on his spot and hesitated.

The clicks of high heels on the hardwood floor came from their backs, breaking this awkward silence. Everyone looked around and found Morgana making her way down. the hallway towards them.

“Lady Morgana!” the soldier gasped in joy.

He finally saw a savior who could rescue them from this predicament.

Morgana walked over and said to them with a polite smile, “The King is inviting the both of you to the Counseling Hall.”

Daran crossed arms in front of his chest, “We are not going. Because it is none of our fucking business.”

“Oh come on. Aren’t you interested in who killed that cocky prick Danton?” Morgana gave him a searching look, “Or…do you know the murderer already?”

Daran’s face showed no sign of panic or nervousness, “How would I know? I am just not interested.”

“Well, just stop by and enjoy the drama then. It would be fun watching people point fingers at each other.” Morgana shrugged, “Do you want me to beg you? Does saying ‘please’ help in this scenario?”

Daran frowned, looking impatient.

Janet stuck her head out and replied with a smile, “Fine, we will go. But give us a moment to get changed.”

She dragged Daran back into the room and closed the door.
