Chapter 248: Of Happiness, A Time To Party
[KAWAI]
The king had sensed his son’s happiness and he knew what had happened. And like a bird that had been freed, he jumped around his office, while his brother and his new Lord stared in confusion.
It took a moment for them to realize what the king’s course of happiness was and frankly, relief washed over them. The tension that had been there for endless weeks was suddenly gone.
The rage in the air and the stench of heartbreak were fading, and the king could finally smile. But it wasn’t just about the king anymore. This was about the happiness of the people of Kawai, the joy of his dearest son who was meant for greater things.
King Zaffuto was glad they had crossed that bridge, but even he knew that this was just the beginning. They were yet to face worse adversaries and it would be a tad challenging given the threats that they had received.
But then for the sake of Tamiko and his happiness, the king would call for a celebration. It was the only possible thing he could think of.
"That is a little too much, don’t you think?" Danny asked, unsure of whether this was the right time. In the years he had known Tamiko, celebrations were never a thing for his brother.
It was like they were the worst part of a dream that Tamiko struggled to engage in. He had seen his brother hide away most of the time and the mating ceremony at Grealor had proven to Tamiko more than once that he would never like ceremonies.
But then again, there were many things that had happened in Kawai. The tides had changed and perhaps the lives they had lived in Grealor and the past that had broken them one too many times was finally taking a break.
Maybe this was the moment for them to understand that with harmony there would always be a chance at happiness. They just had to find the perfect string and they would be alright.
They had to be anyway because there was no strength left to go to war this time, the Lycans had suffered and while they could still fight battles and win, they also deserved to be happy.
