Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Fools!

Gale jumped from one balcony to another until he reached their bedroom window.

Swan was trembling the whole time, even when he carefully laid her on the bed. Gale gritted his teeth as he didn’t know what to do right now to calm her down, because the more he touched her, the more she would tremble.

Thus, he decided to just check on her condition. He didn’t see anything wrong with her, except with the dress that was a little too revealing for his taste. There was no scratch, not even the dress was ripped whatsoever.

So, she was completely unharmed from the outside.

"Did you get hurt somewhere?" Gale asked, and Swan shook her head.

...

"Then what happened in the lake just now? Did Rock hurt you?" Gale asked. Swan shook her head again, but Gale didn’t believe her this time. He knew that Rock’s threatening howl was a sign that he had found his supposed mate, and threatened everyone who dared to touch her. "Be honest with me, Swan. I will kill him if you want him to die."

"N-n-no. H-he didn’t hurt me—" Swan finally opened her lips. Because she didn’t want to hurt someone who truly didn’t hurt her. However, looking at Gale’s judgmental eyes, she realized that she needed to be honest, "He... he suddenly shifted into a wolf, w-with his sharp teeth baring at me, and his t-t-that part fully hard. Then he attacked me. I just closed my eyes because I was afraid, so I didn’t know what happened until you hugged me."

Gale kept on staring at Swan’s expression. He wore a blindfold, but his eyesight was crystal clear, and with his bond with Swan, he should be able to tell if she was lying or not.

He realized that Swan wasn’t lying, but that only raised more questions as to what truly happened at the lake just now.

’I guess I could only get the answer from Rock,’ Gale thought. He carefully caressed her cheek and then kissed her lips to calm her down. Swan slowly stopped trembling, but her heart was still beating uncontrollably.

"Calm down, Swan. You are safe here," Gale assured. "I will tell the cat maids to prepare a warm bath for you, and then you can rest. I will be out for a moment to interrogate my beta, but I’ll be back as soon as possible."

Swan nodded, but before he got up from the bed, she grabbed his wrist and asked, "C-c-can I... get a new dress? I... I don’t like this one..."

"You don’t like it?" Gale frowned. "I thought it was you who picked it."

Swan shook her head, "I-I was given this one. I don’t like it, because m-my breasts...."

Gale’s gaze cooled off seeing the exposed cleavage. He was patient because he didn’t want to get angry at Swan’s choice of dressing because he didn’t know the culture of the people in Holy Achate.

Now that Swan said she didn’t pick the dress herself, he began to wonder if someone was trying to expose her sweet body to the public.

"I will get it done. You should rest for now."

"T-thank you... Gale..." Swan murmured before she let him go.

He got up and stared at Swan for a few more seconds.
