A Mate For The Last Lycan novel Chapter 82

Chapter 82: THE HISTORY ABOUT THE OLD DYNASTY

It didn't make sense for Khaos when no one knew what kind of medicine that Zuri was taking. Red Feather. It didn't sound like a medicine. He wondered if the drug actually was the one responsible for her hallucinations and why she was given the medicine in the first place.

Khaos had asked her when the first time she heard the voices in her head and she said she had been hearing that ever since she was a child, around when she was eight to nine years, but only a year after that she was given the medicine.

So, in that case, the medicine was not the cause of her delusion, but Khaos didn't want to rule out the possibility. It looked like an unnecessary problem that he shouldn't have mingled with, but somehow, his instinct told him to dig deeper.

"So, how can you be part of Celeste Kingdom's royal family?" Zuri asked again, curiosity was written all over her face.

Khaos looked at her gently.

It couldn't be said that he liked her in romantic way, but he had soft spot for her, probably it started when he saw her hugging herself in the cold night when she was being punished. The sight of her lonely back, engraved in his mind.

But, probably, it was therapeutic to talk to someone, who didn't constantly remind him about revenge.

"Queen Ann was not my biological mother. My biological mother died when she gave birth to me when she tried to escape the annihilation."

"But they said, the last queen of the lycan died in the Great Palace during the annihilation."

Khaos shook his head. "No. They killed someone else, one of my mother's personal maid, who apparently was being pregnant at the same time as her."

During that time too, the mistress of previous king of Celeste kingdom was giving birth, but she gave birth to a baby girl.

But, as it well known that you couldn't secure your position with a baby girl in the palace, especially when you were a mere mistress and the queen had given birth to baby boy. Your chance was close to none.

"They swapped the babies?" Zuri was shocked when she said that. The secret that Khaos let her knew made her scared. This was too much, but she wanted to know more about him.

"Smart," Khaos chuckled, didn't seem to be bothered by the shock on her face.

And that was how he ended up to be written as the previous king's son, the defect one, since he couldn't really shift in front of anyone, since they would learn that he was the last lycan.

The story sounded very simple and anticlimactic, but what happened during that period of time was trully chaotic to say the least. Swapping the baby was not an easy feat, it was a mix of luck, chance and craziness of the situation.

It was a miracle that they could reach to this point without being discovered, because everything had been running smoothly, Ezra and the other elders from the first generation that managed to escape the annihilation had been warning Khaos to not get reckless and get comfortable.

But, if they thought Khaos was slacking off, it was obviously they didn't see what he had done to keep everything in line.

It was not only luck on their side, since luck alone wouldn't be able to bring them to this

moment.

Khaos had been taking an active role to make a decision ever since he was only twelve. He learned about his origin when he shifted for the first time when he was only ten, by that time, Mabel was his nanny. It took a great effort for their people to put Mabel by his side, that was why Mabel saw him as her son, since she was literally the one, who raised Khaos.
