Chapter 322: THE SIREN IN THE LAKE

"I just hate their dirty politics." Erik said. "They are so messy even worse than they were once before now."

Xaden gave a shrug.

"So is your sister and Jasmine coming along with us then?" Erik asked.

"Gods no." Xaden said as he adjusted himself in comfort of his make shift bed. "She would remain with Jasmine and the rest and they would go up together."

"You think that’s a good idea?" Erik rose a brow. "I don’t think they like each other."

Xaden rubbed his arms and said. "Doesn’t matter. As far as they won’t kill each other then I am good with that."

Erik said nothing for a while and then cleared his throat. "I got word from my men that the royal family has asked for an enquiry into the attack of the moonlight pack. When we get back to the pack they will be waiting for us."

Xaden looked up at the camp tent thinking for a few seconds.

"They were right behind us when we attacked so what’s the goddamn enquiry about?" Xaden asked extremely irritated.

Erik shrugged. "Who knows. But the rumors are that the Queen has taken back her seat."

"She has not been in power for over years now. Her getting back on the seat is something I never expected." He said. "Neither did I. But you want to know the truth? I suspect that they are scared of you. On one hand there is relief that Bale is gone. You rid him of their problems. And now they are worried that your lust for blood and revenge isn’t over. And that you will come for them too."

"If I wanted to come for them I would have bloody well done it a long time ago." Xaden said.

"Maybe bring up the idea of you marrying Belle." Erik said with a wink.

"God no." Xaden said frustrated. "I have zero interest in ever marrying her.

"I know that but most frankly they don’t care about it. She is going to be Queen one day and you seem like the best prospect as King consort over the hungry leeches that try to snoop and bed the Queen." Erik said.

"I will never get married and I already have a mate." Xaden swore. "Fuck."

He had completely forgotten that his mate and his uncle were in the pack by now.

Xaden rubbed his face in frustration.

"You forgot about them didn’t you?" Erik asked him .

"I want to forget that even I exist." Xaden said as he got up and stretched his body.

"So what’s next for us Xaden?" Erik asked him "Bale is gone. You have your sister. You have everything you ever wanted. Do you think you are going to go after more blood?"

Xaden shrugged uncertain for himself.

"I didn’t think about this." Xaden said. "I never thought this far. I never actually thought that I was going to kill Bale one day. It was one the thing I was so obsessed to be doing that now that I’ve accomplished it, I’m not sure of what’s next."

Erik walked up to him with a smile and patted his shoulder. "Whatever decision you make, I will be here with you. I told you to the end."

Xaden said nothing and started to walk out of the tent.

"Where the hell do you think you’re going to this bloody time of the night?" Erik asked curiously.

"I need to take a walk. I can’t sleep."

Xaden said and he headed out of the tent.

He strolled by the camping grounds.

The guard nodded. "Yes she is." _{ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com}
