Chapter 134 Alone With King Kal
Banished
I couldnt believe my own cousin had said that word to me. Before I could do anything. I heard him order, “Guards, arrest hal
The doors of the throne room opened, and the guards and crowd hooded back in. They didn’t go far. Everyone was waiting for the king’s decision.
People looked at me, some were shocked, some were puzzled, some looked at me with pity, and some were gloating over the situation
However, I noticed that none of my pack members were there. They must have been intentionally kept away from the throne room
I stood staring at James for a few seconds. His gaze was already alert, and before I knew it, royal guards had circled him in the center, protecting him- from me.
My cousin no longer trusted me, and it was the same from me towards him,
I shifted without hesitation and fought off a few guards coming at me.
As I moved my way towards the exit of the room, I heard him announce to the crowd, “Ladies and Gentlemen! I must inform you that Alpha Ethan Gray is the cause of this war. I know it will come as a shock because many of you have always seen him as a hero, but because he cruelly murdered his stepfather many years ago, King Kal, the brother of the man that was slaughtered, has attacked our kingdom.”
The crowd was quiet, and the king continued, “Now, King Kal is offering peace if we hand the true culprit, the one responsible for all of our suffering, over to him. Let Ethan be the one to pay the consequences for his dastardly deeds! Let his life be given instead of the innocents‘. He has fooled us into thinking he was on our side when all along he has been the one to cause all of our pain and senseless deaths!”
It was clear that James’s mind was made up before I even walked into the room.
Cheers went up with the end of the king‘s speech, and others began to chant that I should be captured and sent to Kal to die, and I was banished from the kingdom because I wouldn’t turn myself over to certain torment and death.
And all I could do was to run for my life.
I was not afraid of death, but at least I would want to die for something worthy.
I picked up speed, running down the hallway toward the outside of the building. Finally, the emotions started to settle in. Betrayal, rage, and desperate disappointment stirred together in my mind, and I could barely breathe.
