Chapter 134: Now Hush Little Baby Don’t You Cry [2]
[TAMIKO]
"Sadako always told us to look for the prince on the lowkey, because the king was not in the right mind to look for the heir. I had asked why, and Lord Sadako said there was only one thing in the king’s mind.
"Death to everyone he interacted with regardless of their innocence," Kosta admitted softly. It wasn’t the best way to describe the king to Tamiko, but he was a Lycan chief who had lived in the era of the king.
He had made it to the king’s council even when the king was not in the right mind. Kosta had been there for the longest time and he owned more than he was letting on.
"Why Are you telling me this now? Nothing will change even if you do, you know that, right?" Tamiko said as he looked at his father. He knew he was probably being harsh but then he wasn’t sure what he needed to do and that scared the hell out of him.
"I am not against you, my beautiful. I never have been against you. I will always be for you, with all my life regardless of what happened wherever. My sword is yours, my heart is yours, my mind is yours.
"Whatever you want me to do, I will do it without a second thought. I told you that earlier and even if you ask me to point the blade – that I had sworn to use to protect my king –against that very king, then for you, my beautiful love, I will do it without question.
"It won’t be easy to win against a man trained and fueled by rage and darkness like my king, but I will fight until I see it happen. If that is what your wish is. All I just want you to know is that he wasn’t always a bad man. Deep down, the king is a good person.
"I became a barbarian because I wanted to be of help to the crow that saved so many Lycan lives. Of course, I always went on bounty hunts but that was the only way I knew of, to walk into packs and lands that the regular Lycans wouldn’t ever get into.
