THE SITUATION WAS OUT OF CONTROL
PRANG!0
The sound was so loud inside the king study room when a glass hit the wall and it shattered into thousand pieces on the floor. It was the king, who had hurled that fragile thing after he heard what had happened.
His face darkened and his breathing was labored when he tried to control himself.
Meanwhile, the guard, who informed the news knelt in front of the king, his head touched the floor, as he was trembling in fear before the king's wrath.
"The lycan appeared in the palace!?" He spat the word viciously. His eyes bulged from their socket, as he slammed his fist against the table and it left a deep dent on the surface. "HOW?! How the lycan can be here?!"
The recent information that he got about the lycan was; the warrior from the Howling Wolf pack was still looking for the lycan in the Goffa mountain after the cursed creature kidnapped Iris. Fortunately, they could save their luna, but then there was no more news about the lycan. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't trace it.
And yet, the lycan appeared in the capital city. It even showed up in the palace.
"What the hell is happening with all of you?!" King Aeon roared, he walked toward the guard and kicked him viciously, as the poor man flew across the room. "What happened with the protection around the palace?! Will one day someone be able to enter my palace, my bed and kill me while I sleep?!"
The two warriors inside the king study room lowered their head. They stared at the poor guard, who was vomiting blood after the kick. They also didn't have any idea what was going on and why the monsters suddenly appeared inside the palace, as if this place was a common area for them to roam around.
In a matter of fact, they had strengthened the protection around the palace, especially the king palace.
However, with the appearance of the lycan, the situation was way more precarious compared to the two attacks of the monsters in the new year.
"What now?! Tell me you managed to kill that lycan!" King Aeon knocked a lot of precious things from the table, he was completely enraged, yet he couldn't care less about it.
One of the warriors blinked, as he listened to the recent information that he received through mindlink. He shuddered when he realized what it was and this subtle reaction didn't go unnoticed by the king.
"WHAT?! WHAT IS GOING ON NOW!?"
The warrior stammered when he spoke, he blanched from fear. "The lycan kidnapped the fourth prince, prince Vemion, and now sir Lori is demanding to see you."
Lori was one of five the king's righthand men in the court. He was hailed from Red Claw pack, which was the richest pack in this kingdom. Their strength came from the amount of the money that they had from the magic stone mines.
This was one of the reasons why king Aeon wanted to take over the magic stone mines of the Howling Wolf pack and the Blue Moon pack so desperately, so he could have an even footing against Red Claw pack.
Needless to say, Red Claw pack was a pack that even the king didn't want to mess with.
"The former beta from the Red Claw pack has been informed and sir Lori is still waiting for his reply." The warrior ended his report.
The former beta of the Red Claw pack was prince Vemion grandfather and because Laluna was also hailed from the same pack, it would be hell if something happened to him.
"USELESS MUTT!" The king took long strides and snapped the warrior's head, it happened so fast and the poor warrior didn't see it coming, but even so, he wouldn't have been able to preserve his life if the king wanted to kill him.
His lifeless body fell on the floor with his neck angled weirdly. His eyes widened, but there was no more life in them.
"Call Leon right now!" the king glared at the second warrior, who immediately left the room, while dragging his fellow comrade out of the study room, the other guard there helped him as well.
It didn't take long for Leon to come, he was panting when he arrived and fear was written so clearly on his face. He knew he would be doomed with the lycan managed to break the security around the palace.
And he was not wrong with that because the first thing that he received was a vicious kick from the king, which sent him sprawled on the floor, while king Aeon stepped on his head. If he put more pressure on it, Leon's head would have exploded and the chief royal guard could do nothing, but plea with the king for his life.
"You are so useless, but you are still trying to beg me to give a mercy for you?" The king asked with sinister look in his eyes. "How can you explain about the lycan that kidnapped the fourth prince? How can you get my damned son and appease the people from the Red Claw pack?"
Leon stuttered when he explained to the king he had deployed all the warriors to look for the prince and even mobilized a lot of magic users to find him as well, yet it didn't please the king.
"You want to say you have deployed so many people and make the search for Vemion public? Is it your way to tell the public the lycan is finally here and set them in more panic? Do you want chaos in the capital city to happen?"
Leon was stunned. He didn't think that way. "My king… I…"
"IDIOT!" King Aeon kicked Leon's face, which made him lost two of his teeth and blood spurted on the carpeted floor. "Make sure your daughter can be Cane's mistress, or else, I will send you to gallows." He needed to get a hold of Cane. "Where is lady Cyan?!"
