"Tordoff?" Lilac called his name when his figure appeared in the hallway. "You are back."
Tordoff grinned at her. He missed that expression and how she smelled. "I am." He glanced at Warlock. "What are you doing here?"
"I asked the same question too." Lilac crossed her arms in front of her chest.
"Shouldn't you go back to your room, Tordoff?" Warlock squinted his eyes at Tordoff, he didn't like when he was being cornered by the guardian angel and his fellow general. "This is your queen's quarter, it will not look good if there is male lycan roams around in this place late at night."
"You shouldn't be here as well," Tordoff responded.
"King's order." Warlock shrugged his shoulder. "I will walk away if you say you are here because you will replace me." He locked his eyes on Tordoff. "But, if not, then please leave."
"What the King wants by having you guarding the guardian angel's door?" Tordoff was not satisfied with Warlock's answer.
"Apparently, she is not only a guardian angel, she is also our king's destined mate." Warlock gave Lilac a look. He was still in denial that their king finally had his mate. All of the people thought the curse was eternal. "Probably, you have not yet heard about this because you were gone when Lyrus started to inform us."
"No. I already knew," Tordoff said coldly. His eyes were on Lilac.
Tordoff remembered the day when Lyrus told him about Lilac's true identity was the same day when he had to follow Sebastian and Kyle to look for Maximus.
==============
"It meant; I am no longer need your drink," Jedrek then added when he watched Maximus was about to talk, "or your service."
Maximus narrowed his eyes. Somehow, he knew what Jedrek already learnt about his true intention. Little did he know, Jedrek had known it for a long time. The King was just very good at pretending and hid his feeling.
"You must be in pain now. When you know Serefina will come with your brothers. I will make the drink to ease your pain.
"You don't need to do that kind of thing anymore." Jedrek walked slowly toward Maximus. "It has been a really long time since I last drank your potion."
Maximus raised his eyebrows when he heard that. "You have been pretending," he stated and then chuckled. "Very well."
The night was so cold and the cricket was so loud, yet at this moment no one paid attention to that small detail, especially when one secret had been revealed unexpectedly.
"So, you know that I am not loyal to you?" Since Jedrek had known about it, there was no way for him to avoid this topic. Since they had dropped their façade, in spite of the fact that both of them had not yet talked much, but by looking into each other's eyes, the two of them knew how much information the other had.
"You were not even loyal to me when you were still my Beta." Jedrek said in matter of fact tone.
"I was loyal to you until you killed all of my family," Maximus said in very calm tone, as if he was talking about the beautiful moon. "You pardoned the dragon shifter and let them alive when they had committed the same mistake that my family had done."
"Your family was under the lycanthropes law, where death is a punishment for traitors." Jedrek didn't need to remind Maximus about this, he should have known it.
This punishment had been imposed for as long as the Donovan royal family had existed and ruled this realm.
Therefore, such crime couldn't be pardoned. However, the dragon shifter were different, they were from different realm and were not bound by the same rules. Jedrek could pardon them as long as he saw an advantage in it.
"Traitors?" Maximus scoffed. "So, do you think I am a traitor now?"
Maximus still remembered how his father told him to hand their family over when the war was about to be won by the lycanthropes. At least, there was one of their family lineage that survive, so he could carry their family blood along with the vengeance.
"You have always been a traitor," Jedrek spoke impassively.
"Don't forget that if something happened to me, you will face the wrath from the eastern region," Maximus jeered.
"Don't worry about that, I have worked on it," Jedrek replied casually.
Maximus smirked. Looks like things were not going according to what he had planned. He couldn't give Jedrek the same death he did to his family. This was pitiful. If only he had a little time, everything would be perfect.
However, Maximus could do one last thing.
"I challenge you for Alpha position," he said before he leapt forward and shifted into his beast mid- air.
==============
Lilac watched the two generals talked at each other in very respectful manner, it seemed like they would have clawed each other's face if it was not because of Lilac still standing there.
But, one thing that Lilac realized just now.
"Tordoff," she called his name and this automatically stopped the conversation between Warlock and him. "Did you come back because you found out where Maximus is?"
Tordoff nodded. "Yes."
"You managed to bring him back?" Lilac's suspicion grew stronger. "Where is he now?"
"He is with the king." Tordoff answered truthfully, but he didn't understand why Lilac looked surprised. "They are having an important conversation now." He assumed the conversation must be really urgent for Jedrek to summon Maximus right away after their arrival.
However, Lilac knew better than that.
Jedrek was going to kill Maximus! He said it before. Because their mating ceremony would be held right after he dealt with him.
That was why, Jedrek put Warlock in front of her door to prevent her from roaming around the castle at this time and watched something that she shouldn't.
This wasn't because Lilac wanted to stop Jedrek from killing him, but ...
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
