"What kind of rubbish is this!?" Lady Cyan gritted her teeth, as she squeezed the letter in her hand and closed her eyes to control her emotions, she looked so livid.
But, before she could get a complete grip of the whole situation, another guard came to report another piece of important information.
"There is a letter from the Holy Kingdom, My Lady."
"What? Holy Kingdom? What do they want?" Lady Cyan frowned. She knew the words would get to the Andelus continent eventually when the King decided to make it public about the lycan and black magic, but it shouldn’t be this fast. At the very least, the fastest they would get any reaction from the Holy Kingdom would be three months from now.
The guard looked hesitant, as if he was about to say something, but he didn’t know where to start.
"Speak!" Lady Cyan hissed through her gritted teeth. She no longer looked as calm as she used to be and seemed rather terrifying at this moment. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
"It was Prince Alan, who sent the letter to the Holy Kingdom, he explained everything that happened here and asked them for help, to retrieve his position and prove his innocence."
And how did the guard know about that when it was only Lou and Alan himself, who knew the gist of the letter?
Of course, it was because the merchant leaked the information... so the guard could explain this to the King.
Without saying a word, Cyan rushed out of the room, barefooted and with only a thin cloak covering her nudity. She couldn’t care less about her appearance right now. She needed to discuss this with her brother and hasten their plan, or else, everything they had worked for would go down the drain.
All of the reports about what happened in the south were sheer bullshit! She knew damn well there was no black magic whatsoever in the south! Especially at such a huge scale, which involved the five packs.
With all the alphas executed, it only left Cane alone as the sole alpha from the south and Lady Cyan was not that stupid to not see what the Alpha from the Howling Wolf pack was aiming for.
Cane was so sleek and cunning, she underestimated him.
Yet, the question was; was everything that happened only a coincidence? Or had it all been planned beforehand? Was it premeditated? And how could anyone involve a lycan? Who had summoned that creature? Was it Cane who had summoned it? He performed black magic? The thought of it was beyond her...
Cyan couldn’t say for sure about that.
===========================
Inside the carriage, the atmosphere was so still, aside from the sound of hooves thumping, neither Cane nor Iris said anything. They were weirdly silent throughout the journey to the fortress, where the Alpha had ordered them to hang the heads of the five alphas.
It took two hours to reach the fortress by carriage from the pack house and when the carriage stopped, Cane walked out first before he helped Iris to get down. They did it naturally and everyone who was present there could tell they had done it countless times before.
