Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Like A Normal Couple

Swan felt an inexplicable warm feeling in her heart. She was glad to hear Rock was doing well, and she was even happier knowing that Rock was far from Gale for now, so he wouldn’t get hunted by her husband.

Long Xiurong observed Princess Swan’s expression, silently hoping that the Princess wouldn’t show any sign of love for Rock. She knew very well that she was no match against her if she wanted to have Rock as her man.

Fortunately, Swan didn’t show any sign of romantic interest, at least from what Long Xiurong could perceive from her actions. Princess Swan wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, and said, "You might find it funny, Lady Long, but I see Rock as a good friend, a dear knight, and my husband’s trusted right-hand man. Never once did I ever see him romantically, so you don’t need to think of me as a rival in love."

Long Xiurong was caught off guard when Princess Swan put her in the spotlight. Her cheeks reddened in less than a second, and she stuttered as she tried to deny it, "I-I don’t l-l-l-love him or anything. I just think that you already have the B-Beast King and—"

"And you’d want Rock as your man, right?" Swan teased. "It’s alright. As far as I know from the cat maids, Rock has never been close to any woman. He dedicated his life to getting stronger, so he could be a worthy beta for Gale. Other than that, he didn’t do much before he had to leave the castle."

Long Xiurong was still feeling bashful, but since Princess Swan didn’t mind her fascination for the handsome young wolf, she muttered, "W-well, I can see that. He was very awkward around me that night, and talked very fast, like a nervous young man..."

Swan giggled, "He doesn’t seem to be awkward or nervous around me. He treats me like a friend from the first time we met, and I think that already gives you an answer, right?"

"Y-you’re making me nervous, Princess. I don’t want to get my hopes up, only to be shot down in the end," Long Xiurong said weakly as she had to suffer a bitter rejection from the Beast King. "I’d rather take it slow and hope a miracle would happen between him and me."

"Fate is a funny thing, especially for wolves," Swan said with a smile. "They can be so in love, yet they are not fated to be each other. Based on what my husband told me, a fated pair can hate each other’s guts, but would only be sexually attracted to each other. I hope that you are none of those. I hope that you’re Rock’s fated mate and that the love between you two is mutual."

When Swan said those words, she genuinely prayed deeply in her heart for Long Xiurong and Rock to be unified as a fated pair. Because up until now, she was still unsure if she was truly Gale’s fated mate or not.

"Thank you for your support, Princess. I will also do my best to be the messenger between you two. He seems to think of you highly," Long Xiurong said.

Swan’s smile stiffened, "W-well, he is my dearest knight, after all. Of course, he’d have a good opinion of me. Anyway, I think I need to write a letter for him as well. Would you mind giving me the pen and paper inside the drawer?"
