Chapter 14

GET IT NOW 14 IDONT WANT TO MISS YOU I DONT WANT TO MISS YOU VALERIA I couldnt even catch the scent he mentioned but of course , he was a far superior species .

How clever ….

Valeria tasted the food that wasnt poisoned , but when she covered it with the tray , that blue powder fell onto the food , the housekeeper summarized exactly what we were all thinking .

Maybe it activates with heat and blends with the foods aroma , making it impossible for His Majesty to detect .

Suddenly , loud commotion echoed from the back door , and the cook burst into the room , sobbing uncontrollably .

A massive man nearly dragged her in by the arm , shoving her to her knees on the cold tile .

I was a bit startled by his sheer size the tension in his bulging muscles made his arms look even bigger than Aldrics A dark beard , sharp electric blue eyes , and the fact that he was bald only made this Lycan appear even more savage .

I was certain … he was one of the Guardians .

Your Majesty , Ive been your cook for years ! How can you believe the accusations of this whore who only wants to get into your be- SHUT UP ! Aldric roared , and I could swear the entire castle trembled .

He stormed toward the woman like a furious wolf , grabbing her hair and dragging her outside , The fact that youve gotten away with this for years is what angers me most ! How many maids have you done this to ? Do you think playing with innocent lives is a joke ?! The growls , the womans desperate cries they echoed from outside the castle , growing fainter and fainter .

No one dared to speak .

No one moved .

The two suspected maids sobbed quietly , clinging to each other .

I jumped , startled , when the heavy silence was suddenly shattered by a chilling , high pitched scream womans scream cutting through the stormy night .

I felt eyes on me and turned toward the dark corner where Guardian Quinn still stood .

He was watching me closely .

a I hadnt had the chance to thank him yet for saving me from almost being violated , from the fall down the ravine , and for helping find the evidence .

The firm footsteps of the King echoed again , returning Everyone out .

The servants too ! he ordered , pointing toward the exit .

The scent of fresh blood clung to him .

Look carefully at what happens to traitors ! In your fucking lives , dont you ever dare mess with my maid again or the punishment you face will be far worse ! froze when he mentioned me .

Honestly .

I felt grateful deep down .

I DONT WANT TO MISS YOU King Aldric didnt need to pretend in front of me , nor deceive me like Dorian who had lied right to my face for his own gain .
