Chapter 298: The right time
Xavier felt his blood run cold when he saw Lyra collapse to the ground. As a respective tribe’s king, he was required to attend the late Lion King’s funeral and he did just that until it came to this! His pretty female fell unconscious after hearing some news about the Eagle King and he stood in his place stunned not knowing how to react. It was happening again and once again. That bastard of an eagle king proved to be more problem than he had thought.
Why was that filthy being trying to put his pretty female through so much? What had she even done to him? The fury Xavier never had towards Kyrell kept increasing the more he saw his pretty female lying there unconscious not in his arms. Kyrell was a stranger and had done nothing to Xavier. Logically, he shouldn’t harbor any kind of hatred towards the former but damn was that bastard making it easy. That betraying eagle was making it easy for Xavier to hate, to absolutely loathe him. And whenever he hated someone, he did it wholeheartedly. Sadly his late father the former fox king was one of them and now, the Eagle king.
Then his irritation grew as he stood like some kind of room ornament as her mates went on with their worries. They hugged her and nursed her waiting for the doctor to arrive while he had no such right. He had no claim over her to check on her or openly show his worry regarding her sudden collapse. No healthy individual collapsed as she did unless there was something wrong. Gods help him if there was really something like that ailing her then the Eagle tribe would not last longer. He swore that to himself.
Xavier tried his best to stay put instead of rushing to her but lords it was getting hard as time ticked. She didn’t budge even when her mates panicked and cubs howled. Thankfully the witch master arrived in time still not ready to lose his head as one might presume.
And the first thing, the witch master did as soon as he saw Lyra was check her pulse. Xavier saw the former’s frown-ridden face relax which made him relax. He was keeping a close eye on the witch master, to not miss anything that might come out of the former’s mouth regarding his pretty female. It didn’t seem like something dire happened which can clearly be interpreted by the witch master’s smiling face. Why was he smiling? This thought swirled inside Xavier’s mind and it did not take him long to know the reason.
The witch master belonging to the Lion tribe got up from his seat and turned towards the audience before announcing, "No need for worry my lords, it is a matter that will bring you joy" He took his time by glancing around the crowd and at last looking at Noah, "The lady is pregnant with a female cub. Congratulations your highness"
A commotion broke out all over as soon as he finished those words. The previous melancholy-filled hall mellowed out with beasts whispering happily amongst each other. The former grim shadow cast by The Lion King’s untimely death seemed to get clear.
