Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87: Chapter 87: A Neglected Princess

Swan’s body stiffened.

"Y-you don’t need to promise me that. It’s not good to make a promise you can’t fulfill," Swan said.

Gale’s lips thinned, but he said nothing as he simply grabbed Swan’s wrist and forced her to keep her palm on his bloody cheek.

Gale closed his eyes as he wanted to feel her touch, and just as he expected, Swan truly had the magic touch that made him feel at ease.

Just one touch from her was enough to assure him that his feelings weren’t fake.

He truly wanted her to be his destined one.

"You should rest. I know you haven’t slept since yesterday," Gale said. "I’ll go to my private lake to wash up. We can rest together after that."

"Mm... okay..."

Gale let go of her wrist and jumped off the window, heading to the private lake to wash up the filth on his body.

Meanwhile, Swan returned to her bed, and it didn’t take long for Gale to return with a slightly damp body, gently resting next to her and embracing her from behind.

Gale sniffed her hair, and then her nape just to make sure that he wasn’t mistaken.

’No, this feeling is real. Her scent and everything about her makes me feel at ease. She is everything I want as a mate, but she is not the Goddess’ daughter...’

Gale was angry at the circumstances that forbade them from being mated for life. ’Doesn’t matter. We will be together in the end. All I need is to find my true mate first.’

Gale began to recall all of the human kingdoms that he visited before, and there were only two kingdoms that fit the requirement from that white rabbit; Holy Achate and Sacred Rianel.

They were neighboring kingdoms from the north, and both had a strict religion built inside their system. He knew that the church was the second highest order after their King or Queen.

Despite that, Gale had never heard of them having a Saintess. The church was nothing but a place of worship, even the church between the common folks and the aristocrats was separated, something that a Goddess’ daughter wouldn’t allow.

’Swan must have a better understanding about this,’ Gale thought. Thus he checked if his beloved was already sleeping, only to find Swan’s body stiffened when he leaned in and kissed his cheek. "You haven’t slept, huh?"

"S-sorry, I’m not sleepy anymore," Swan muttered. "Y-you should be the one to sleep. You just went on a long journey just now."

"I don’t need rest. I just rested with you because you make me feel at ease," Gale chuckled. "Though, I do have something in mind right now, about your kingdom."
