"Their inner beast had been torn off of them. They're not there anymore," Jedrek said, staring at the sleeping women. He had felt it the moment he saw them. Their beasts were missing. For Lycans, their inner wolf was like a soul for humans. What would happen if someone lost their soul?
There was a rare case in the past where the inner wolf of a Lycan was killed, but the owner's body was still alive. However, it was the only case that ever happened, until now.
Kyle checked on their pulse. "But, they're alive." he was as anxious as Rowan before. It was like they were sleeping.
"Who would do this? How could they have the power to rip a shapeshifter's inner beast, without even killing them? And why, what is their purpose behind this?" said Lyrus who had been analyzing the situation.
"The devil," Jedrek finally figured it out. He was squinting his eyes at the two women before he gave an order. "Kill them both." His order made everyone in the room including the Beta freeze for a brief second. They weren't prepared to hear such an order from him, right after discovering this brutal case.
They knew Jedrek was ruthless towards his enemy, but they didn't expect that he would order them to kill someone who had just been attacked by the devil. Or, perhaps the Alpha knew something that they didn't know?
Knowing that these women were their people too, Lyrus opened his mouth, trying to argue and said, "But, Your Majesty, if I may, Sir, they are still alive—" However, before he could finish what he was going to say, Jedrek stopped him by throwing a cold stare at him. Jedrek really disliked whenever Lyrus argued with him.
Aside from the fact that Lyrus took Maximus's place as his Beta fairly, Jedrek still couldn't get along well enough with Lyrus. Even though now, Lyrus was his Beta. He preferred Maximus compared to Lyrus in terms of talking. Maximus always knew when to shut his lips tight or when to open them.
"The devil had done this before. Even if these women are alive after this, they will only be another subject to them. Those devils will make these women their slave or something," said Jedrek calmly while showing no emotion in his expression. Then, he turned his attention to his generals.
He looked at them one by one, searching for anyone in the room who would have any objections to his order. None of them seemed to have the nerve to speak. They averted their gaze from their King.
Jedrek was right after all. By the time the two women wake up, they will be the subject of the devils. They were no longer his people. Their loyalty would belong to the devils. Soon enough, those women would be a danger, a threat to the kingdom. Keeping them alive would be something he would regret after.
"Understood, Alpha." said Sebastian when he raised his shifted right hand to kill the women with his sharp wolf claws. Jedrek turned around and walked out of the room with Lyrus, and Rowan followed behind him, while Kyle and Tordoff were left behind and stayed with Sebastian.
"You said this is the first case?" Jedrek asked as they walked down the stairs. Rowan nodded his head and told his King all the details that he knew about this case, "There have been several cases from last week, but it happened to random people, and different areas."
"Who are the two women?" Lyrus asked, knowing what Jedrek wanted to know. Because the Alpha was always in an observant mood and rarely talked.
Rowan shrugged his shoulder. "They are just ordinary citizens who apparently had been missing for a week. They were found at night by a watchman near the city center." And he added, "The watchman felt that it was strange, because they smell like a dead lycan. That's why he reported it."
Jedrek nodded. "Find out all the details about this incident. And, kill all those shapeshifters whose inner beast was destroyed. As I said, they would become threats to the kingdom. So, I don't want any unnecessary trouble in the future."
"Understood, Alpha." Rowan bowed his head slightly, stopped following him and headed to a different direction.
"And Lyrus," Jedrek called his Beta, but didn't slow down, or even spare him a glance. "Don't question my decision." Hearing this gloomy remark, the only thing Lyrus could do was, to keep his head low, and then replied solemnly to his King, "Understood, Alpha."
By now, Lyrus had learned what he just learned. To not question the king's decision. But, sometimes, he just couldn't help it. Because he couldn't understand some of the decisions that Jedrek made. He needed reasons behind decisions. But unfortunately, he couldn't have it when the King simply refused to provide him reasons.
==============
"I heard you are looking for me?" A woman with red hair swayed her way when she entered Jedrek's study room. Jedrek turned his attention to see the slender, beautiful woman with lavender scent all over her. However, his mind was thinking about another scent that had been latched inside his head.
He still couldn't figure out what kind of delicious scent that the girl had. "I believe that Lyrus had told you about the recent issues," said Jedrek. He didn't want to waste his time by having unnecessary chats with this witch. But the witch pouted her red lips at Jedrek's bluntness.
She walked closer to the Lycan King without hesitation. It looked like this witch had used to doing it countless times. In fact she had. She stopped right in front of Jedrek, who was sitting in his chair. She leaned her body against the table to face the Alpha.
"That is the right decision to kill those women," she knew what Jedrek wanted to hear, and was sly enough to agree with whatever he did. Part of it was because she sought Jedrek's affection, but the rest was because she loved violence.
Although little did she know, the two only reasons why Jedrek was looking for her were; her knowledge and her body. The witch moved closer to him, "They had lost their souls to the devil. It was right to kill them before they become unnecessary trouble for you."
"Find out more about it," said Jedrek as he welcomed the witch's touch on his shoulder.
"There is actually a grimoire that can tell you about this. A grimoire of the pure blood witch." The witch glanced at Jedrek seductively, she knew the words 'pure blood witch' would affect him so much. And she added, "Unfortunately, no one knows where to find the grimoire."
Jedrek moved quickly and in no time, he was towering over her. He pushed the witch against the table. But, the witch just giggled, she knew he wanted her lips. Before her lips were claimed by the Alpha, she said lightly, "But, don't worry, I have another way to gather useful information.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
