A Mate For The Last Lycan novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149: LEAVE, ZURI.

Elijah lost around fifty five magic users in the first battle with the royal warriors and only now, he lost another nine magic users.

Magic user was hard to come to, especially in this continent, therefore, losing sixty four of them was a great number for Elijah. It was alarming. They couldn’t lose the magic user anymore, since he needed at least, fifteen magic users to perform the curse on Zuri.

There was one thing that kept bothering Elijah though. The fact that Khaos didn’t do anything to stop Zuri when he could and chose to wait for her to kill nine of the magic users before Rhett and Bryden stopped her, didn’t sit well with Elijah.

There was only one reason for that;

Khaos wanted to reduce the cult’s power.

"That’s nonsense," Rhett said. He frowned when Elijah took him to the side and tell him what he was thinking. "What the reason for him to want to reduce our power? Our power is his power too and he knows that. That’s ridiculous."

"It’s because he doesn’t trust us," Elijah said. "I don’t think he already trusted us."

"Then we need to do more to gain his trust."

And that was the end of the conversation. They stared at the closed door, where Bryden was standing next to it. He was worried, but he couldn’t hear anything from inside, all he could smell was the metallic scent of blood.

If only the strong scent of the magic users’ blood was not in the air, the beta must be able to smell Khaos’s blood because the alpha was also bleeding right now.

Zuri attacked him. The spell that kept her in her human form had faded and now her claws elongated. She stabbed him on his right shoulder.

Her eyes looked crazy. Her gaze flickered between anger and confusion back to sadness.

"I don’t want to be hurt anymore," Zuri said. The sadness lingered and her tears streamed down her cheek. Her claws still embedded deeply on Khaos’s right shoulder.

However, Khaos didn’t even flinch. The pain seemingly didn’t bother him, as if he couldn’t feel the pain. As if the pain was nothing...

"You will no longer be in pain once the beauty blood is completed," Khaos replied. He didn’t move, he didn’t even try to dodge the attack even when he could.

"No." Zuri shook her head. "That’s too painful. I don’t want to go through that again."

This was the reason why they erased her memories about the pain of the ritual. Rhett had warned her about this before, but Zuri insisted to keep her memory, more so, they didn’t have time to erase it when the rope snapped and she started her killing spree.

"There is only one option for you not to be in pain anymore." Khaos caressed her cheek, he wiped the blood from her face, though it didn’t do much, since Zuri was literally covered in blood. "You need to leave."

Zuri took a step back, she retracted her claws and blood oozed out from the wound, still Khaos didn’t give any indication that he was in pain.
