Chapter 187: Bad habit of their mate
’’What?’’ Lucas asked in disbelief. He felt like giving someone a good beating. But right this moment, the one he wanted to beat was Xavier. Yes, the same fox prince who helped in curing the cubs.
Maybe that was the reason why he was still sitting in his place calmly even after hearing the news about Xavier holding a coronation banquet. Lucas still couldn’t believe everything that he had heard. The entire beast city was right now on alert due to the stray beasts. Those pests have fearlessly infiltrated their home but all they could do now was stay quiet because they were incapable of driving them out. Incapable might sound harsh but Lucas was not able to find any more appropriate word for their current predicament.
They indeed failed to properly guard the city against those intruders and that in turn was resulting their plight right now.
And what? Xavier wanted to organize his coronation banquet without caring about all this.
He glanced at Noah and noticed that his friend was also thinking the same. It sounded absurd to anyone who would hear about this. But most of all, a coronation banquet of all the tribes inside the city was equally important. And as the princes of their tribes, both of them had no other choice but to attend it. It was the same for Blake, Demir, Kyrell, and Victor. As the kings of their individual tribes, they have to attend it without fail.
It did not end there. Their mate would also have to attend and that was what worried him. He didn’t want her to even step her foot outside the castle until the stray beasts are driven out of the city.
’’Killian will not agree to send her out’’ Noah said breaking the prolonged silence between them.
Lucas frowned and said, ’’Even I will not allow’’
Noah sighed, ’’You know it is not something that we can decide’’
’’I don’t care’’ Lucas snapped showing his displeasure, ’’The last time she attended a banquet almost caused her and cubs their life. She was poisoned while pregnant and we are still recovering from that incident. I’m not sending my Ly out when those stray beasts are roaming everywhere"
All of them would never be able to forget the dark phase when they had to look at their mate and the cubs suffer. If not for Victor getting the spirit wings, then they wouldn’t know what to do and would continue to live with the pain of losing those innocent cubs all their lives.
