Chapter 88: HER LONELY BACK
FIRST LIFE
(((ZENITH’S POV)))
===============================
Zander was frustrated when Zenith changed the whole plan because of Dawn. They were supposed to use Dawn’s death as an opportunity to meddle with the problems in the Moonlight pack, but because Zenith decided not to mate and mark her, their plan wouldn’t work anymore.
Thus, instead of going on with their original plan, Zenith mated and marked one of the council’s daughters. Of course, this caused an uproar because people knew about the decree from the king and that Zenith was supposed to mate with Dawn.
Moreover, the practice of having more than one woman had been eradicated decades ago under the rule of King Cane, their father. And what Zenith had done was tantamount to wanting to bring the old practice back.
It caused so much problem in the court. Some people were elated, because they were still thinking it was ridiculous to have only one woman. Now what Zenith had done would lead to a better change. Not to mention he was part of the royal family, thus the impact was unthinkable.
Zenith’s supporters cheered at his decision to take a mistress, but Zander’s people cursed at him.
"You are so close to getting me to kill you, Zen," Zander said grimly. He disagreed with Zenith’s decision, but there was nothing much he could do at this point since he had already mated and marked Alia.
Therefore, it was inevitable that they would have the ceremony next.
For Alia’s dissatisfaction, she didn’t get the royal ceremony. It was only a small ceremony that was held privately, just to mark their union. Zander’s supporters felt it was more than enough, because they couldn’t flaunt Zenith’s infidelity in public. On the other hand, Zenith couldn’t care less about the ceremony.
