A Mate For The Last Lycan novel Chapter 177

Chapter 177: YOU ARE NOT HIM

The beta was amazed with her plan, but also wary of her.

Needless to say, Zuri was... a strategist. Just like Khaos, she knew how to make a plot. She was not a naïve woman, who was ignorance to how the world worked.

Her ability had been proven once when they dealt with the purchase of the ship and Bryden had been amazed by her.

But, the problem here was; Zuri was a Shell. Though it was harsh, but she was a collateral damage for their main goal. Her existence and the purpose of her was a complication for their goal, especially now when Khaos had marked her.

Bryden could see the way Khaos stared at her. The bond strengthened, the affection was real and now he was tied to her more than ever.

If only she was not the Shell, Khaos and Zuri would be perfect for each other.

"How do you want to do this?" Khaos asked, he played with her hair absentmindedly, he did it very naturally and more often than not, he would glance at the mark on her neck. It was almost healed, but there were scars around her wrists and ankles. The scars from the silver. It seemed, it wouldn’t heal.

Even though Zuri looked better, her healing ability was rather slow. She almost looked like a human, she almost looked like she lost this ability.

"I want the princess, who is the one who delivered the golden stamp."

"How are you going to do that?" Khaos looked relax, he let his mate to plan everything, while he gave her his support and Zuri enjoyed it.

It boasted her confidence, it kept her mind away from negative thoughts and voices in her head. She looked fine. At least, now...

"The king didn’t know about the fact of Bairone and also the opium and now the princess is an addict," Zuri started. Bryden and Caiden leaned over instinctively to listen to her.

And in the end, they talked about the plan for hours.

"My king, what is going on?" Luca approached him, the royal gamma had been worried about the situation in the River Creek pack and in the whole kingdom in general.

The help from Wolfdale Kingdom was already here. The palace had opened the gates to distribute the food supply too. Queen Nycta helped with the process, which made this as her first appearance in public after their ceremony.

Nycta heard what Rose was doing in the River Creek pack and she was going to do the same. Despite the tumultuous problem between the king and the queen, no one needed to know. Dacre and Nycta needed to show their strong front.

"You need to stop drinking." Luca took the bottle of wine from Dacre’s hand. He had been like this for days after the letter from Leonard. Nycta and Killian’s betrayal hit him so hard. "We still couldn’t find a merchant, who wanted to sell their items to us," he informed him.
