Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29: Chapter 29: The Goddess’ Light

[Music Recommendation: Elfen Lied - Lilium.]

Rock’s claw was only an inch away from Swan’s face when Swan’s hair suddenly turned bright, and a blinding light emanated from her body.

"GRRHHH!" Rock felt there was a barrier around Swan’s body, and when he tried to break into the barrier, an unseeable force suddenly blew him away.

"ARGGH!!" Rock was thrown away until his back hit the tree behind him. He vomited blood as he felt that he had been punched by hundreds of invisible fists.

However, thanks to the pain and the blood he vomited, he began to slowly regain his clarity. His blurry gaze began to clear up as he kept staring at Princess Swan who was still closing her eyes, and the moment her body stopped emanating bright light, all the strange rut he experienced before had magically disappeared.

Rock reverted to his human form, and he kept vomiting blood as he smiled apologetically at the woman he was supposed to protect, "Forgive me... princess..."

And with that, Rock lost his consciousness.

Meanwhile, at the castle, Gale had just finished fighting another rebellion coming from lizard beastmen in the south marsh. He was bloody exhausted, and there was nothing that could make it better for him other than a bath, a nice meal, and his beautiful, yet timid mate.

But when he jumped into the bedroom from the window, he didn’t see any sign of his mate anywhere.

He could still faintly detect her unique scent, so Swan must’ve left the room not long ago.

"Swan?" Gale walked towards the bathroom, thinking she was inside, but there was no answer. So he opened the main door and saw the two cat maids already kneeling in front of him. "Where is she?"

"P-Princess Swan is in your private lake, Your Majesty," Maya replied.

"She is there with Rock Silverfang. She said she wants to give you a surprise once you’ve arrived," Myra added. They were holding their breaths because the blood of lizard beastmen on their King’s body made them nauseous.

"A surprise?" Gale got excited. He thought that their relationship soured last night, because Swan kept on talking about sacrifice, and refused to drop the topic.

But it seemed that she was just bored in her room. So, giving her a bit of freedom was all it needed to make her happier.

Thus, Gale’s lips curled up a bit and he said, "I see. Then I will—"

AWOOOO!!

Gale turned his head when he heard that haunting howl coming from the private lake.

Of course, he could identify that howl immediately, because he was the one who subjugated his young beta, Rock Silverfang.

It was a howl of a young wolf finding his mate.

Gale had a bad feeling about this, so he rushed towards the window and shifted into his bipedal werewolf form mid-air.

He rushed towards his private lake, and his heart dropped when he saw Swan, cowering at the lakeside while covering her head. Her body was shaking, and she was sobbing as if she had just seen something horrible.

A few meters from her, Rock was lying on the ground, unconscious and naked.
