The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 194

Chapter 194: CHERRY’S SPY

Uther watched in disbelief.

"B-but why are you going to the isle of lycanthrope?" Uther asked in horror. "No one has ever made it alive."

"You have heard of it." Xaden said with hope of more information in his eyes.

And then it occurred to him that Xaden knew perhaps nothing about this place he was going to and was going on a blind mission.

"Yes I know it. It is deadly." He said taking the opportunity to scare Xaden and make him change his mind. "There is an undead king and his army. You need to understand that if you leave you will not make it alive. No one ever has."

Xaden gave a weak smile. "I have heard of the legend. But what I need to retrieve is far more important."

"You are looking for the cup of life." Uther said to him. "No man has ever found it. Perhaps the story is just a myth."

"It is one risk I am willing to take." Xaden responded as he attempted to leave but Uther blocked his path.

"Then if that be it why do you not send your men to go in this mission." Uther said smartly. "If you go and you die what will happen to this place?"

Xaden was quiet and then he took in a very deep breath.

"If I die then so be it." Xaden said. "I have made protocols as to who shall take over the pack. But I will die trying."

He tried to leave but his uncle stopped him again.

"To what end Xaden?" Uther said. "You are risking your life for a mere slave! For the daughter of your enemy! The very same person who had ripped the bellies of your parents open and killed your own sister! Left you for dead took everything from you! If not for her bloodline then you will still be with your family. This is an abomination."

Xaden breathed heavily again and then he said. "I will see you when I return uncle."

Then he walked off leaving Uther standing confused as hell.

He turned to Felix. "What the bloody hell was that all about? I thought you said the girl was dead!"

Felix looked at him as the other soldiers followed Xaden marching behind.

"She was not supposed to survive it." Felix said.

Uther kept his hands on his temple massaging it and trying to figure out what exactly to do.

Then Lily rushed after Xaden.

He was already at the garden grounds that would lead out of the pack.

"Xaden!" She said rushing up to him.

He turned around and then she bumped into him.

He looked at her over as held her by her waits to prevent her from falling.

"Careful." He said as he hoisted her to her feet.

She blushed and nodded. "Thank you my lord."

He gently let go of her and she adjusted her wrinkled dress.

"I apologize for my absence." Xaden said. "You have not quite had the chance to see me or for us to discuss. Also you have not seen me in the best light and I am certain that you must hate me."

This was not going how it was supposed to.
