Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 77

Chapter 77: Chapter 77: About Rock (III)

Swan stayed inside her bedroom until dusk, and Gale finally returned after a long day in the throne room. They stared at each other in silence for a while until Swan broke the silence with a simple question.

"Do you know Rock’s current location?"

Gale’s lips thinned.

Again, she could’ve asked about many things.

First, she could apologize for trying so hard to defend a traitor.

Second, she could apologize for dividing her heart in two.

Third, she could at least ask him about his situation since he left in a terrible mood at noon.

But it was about Rock instead. That bastard lingered in Swan’s head for far too long despite only talking to each other for one day.

It gave him a sense of insecurity that he never knew existed before. Now he was worried Swan would fall in love with any man she talked with.

He was already contemplating pardoning Swan for her affection towards another man, something that an Alpha like him shouldn’t do. He was far more concerned about losing Swan rather than pride that would give him nothing in the end.

But seeing Swan’s behavior, Gale was feeling petty.

He wanted to see Swan’s reaction once he dropped the news, making sure Swan knew who she belonged to.

"He is in Andur village in the far south. Living in a cave inside the forest area and making friends with a few humans from that village," Gale scoffed. "Pathetic. He was a war commander who would win wars in my stead. But now he has been reduced to a mere rogue wolf who lives like a true savage."

Swan’s eyes widened. She saw a trace of sadness when Gale mentioned Rock just now.

It was obvious that Gale didn’t want to kill him, but still insisted for some reason.

"T-then, what are you going to do next? He’s not doing anything excessive, so, you will forgive him and let him back, right?" Swan asked hopefully, but it only ignited Gale’s anger even more.

"I don’t tolerate traitors. His fate is either imprisonment or death. Since you seem to like him very much, then I’ll make sure to bring his head as a gift," Gale said. "I have to leave now. You’ll see his head hanging under that chandelier by the next morning."

"Gale!" Swas was horrified by what he said just now. She tried to grab his hand and plead with him not to do it, but Gale quickly pulled his hand because he knew her warmth would soften his heart.

At this point, he had to be decisive so Swan wouldn’t keep defending another man.

"No, Gale! You will regret it!" Swan begged, but Gale walked to the window instead. _{freewebnσvel.cøm}
