Chapter 30
COMPLICES VALERIA After making the boldest agreement of my life , Aldric left and asked the innkeeper to prepare a hot bath .
I appreciated the gesture and sank into the soothing water up to my neck , alone in the room , sighing in relief .
I didnt want to think about anything , but as I raised the hand where I had been burned by that strange stone , I realized it was almost fully healed .
I touched my neck too no pain .
All my wounds and bruises were healing fast , faster than ever before , except for the most serious and old scars .
It was the power of the Lycan , I knew it well .
I also remembered all the strange things I had experienced .
My memories of the specter attack were hazy , but one thing was certain I faced it, and I even think it feared me .
What am I , really ? No one can ever know about this .
Absolutely no one .
Everyone connected with those creatures and vampires is executed without question .
That order had been given by none other than the King himself .
And I am right by his side .
Aldric can never discover my oddities .
www I rose from the bathtub and grabbed the towel from the screen along with my clothes , ready to change .
The moment I stepped out , drying my hair , there was a sudden knock at the door .
I answered confidently , thinking it was the innkeeper coming to empty the tub .
I froze when I saw Guardian Quinn standing there .
Y Your Excellency ? What are you doing here ? I asked , surprised , then realized my rudeness .
Why ? Am I interrupting something between you and the King ? he asked bluntly , stepping inside without waiting for an apology , his sharp gaze immediately scanning the bed and my clothes .
I felt judged .
His tone was cold , nothing like the sunny Lycan he usually was .
Of course not , Your Majesty has gone out , I replied respectfully , lowering my gaze but matching his coldness .
After a few tense seconds , he sighed .
I apologize , Valeria .
Im frustrated by other matters and took it out on you .
Im here because the King called me , he explained , and I nodded without holding a grudge His Majesty is likely handling pack business .
You can find him at the Alphas house , I informed him .
No , Im more interested in the Goddesss Altar he mentioned in his message .
I want to inspect it .
Would you take me there ? I saw no reason to refuse .
Honestly , I wanted to see it again too .
