Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 181

Chapter 181: Chapter 181: Is she my...

Rock disappeared into the night once more. He looked around the castle and realized Lady Long’s window was the only one open, probably because it was winter night, and the castle was already somewhat cold even in summer.

’I lost my chance to meet with my Princess,’ Rock lamented. ’I also lost the necklace I meant to give her.’

That white mammoth necklace was very difficult to obtain, as killing a white mammoth was strictly forbidden, and one unnecessary death would tip the scale of nature.

Hence, he had to search through the land to find a dead white mammoth. It was almost like a miracle when he found it, and now it wasn’t in Princess Swan’s hand.

Did he regret it?

No.

He just wished he could find two white mammoths before returning to the castle, so he could give one for Princess Swan and Lady Long each.

’She needs it more than Princess Swan,’ Rock told himself. ’I can’t let her die. Not when she is meant to be my messenger. My new ally in the castle.’

Rock frowned when he said the last sentence.

For some reason, his heart was unwilling to consider Long Xiurong as a mere ally.

She was more than that, or at least he hoped she would be more than just an ally.

"Is she truly..." Rock gritted his teeth. Of course, he knew more or less about fated mate. He wasn’t cursed like His Majesty, so the scent emanating from Lady Long’s nape should be enough sign for him to mark her.

But then again, he remembered how enamored he was by Princess Swan’s scent. Honestly, Princess Swan’s scent was so overwhelming for him that he genuinely thought she was meant to be with him.

He knew better than to fall in love with his Princess, as her heart already belonged to the Beast King. However, that didn’t erase the fact that Rock genuinely wanted to mark her as well.

’So, why do I feel the urge to mark two female humans at once? Which one is my actual mate?’ Rock asked himself but was only left with confusion in the end.

The second day of the banquet was just as gleeful as it was yesterday. In fact, it seemed that the Princess and Beast King were in a better mood for some reason, especially the Beast King who had a smirk as if he was plotting something cruel, yet fun for himself.

Swan had been guessing what kind of surprises Gale had prepared for her. No matter how many times she pestered him to tell her, all he said was;

Just wait and see what I have for you by tomorrow morning.
