Lycan King's Regret: Punished The Wrong Daughter novel Chapter 59

Chapter 59: 59- Poor Man

Arabella Toussaint

I had just woken up when Lilith got a mindlink from someone, "Oh, Goddess," she looked horrified.

"What happened?" I held her hand, forgetting for a moment that I was a patient myself. The nurse who was there to feed me medicines handed me a cup of water.

"You need to take these medicines on time, or you won’t recover. Thank Goddess you didn’t get a fracture."

I swallowed the pills obediently and handed back the cup, but my eyes stayed on Lilith’s face. The nurse pressed my ribs to check my injuries and then noted something on the clipboard.

Once she left, my focus turned to Lilith, whose face was deathly pale.

"He ... he will kill her..." she whispered in a shaky voice as more color seemed to drain from her face.

"What?" I struggled to sit up, "Who will kill who?"

"Lucien... he is attacking Jasmine..." She swallowed hard.

"What?" Without thinking, I pulled the cannula out of my hand, "Take me there."

Lilith seemed to get her senses back, "N...no... don’t be a fool. You need rest," she warned me with wide eyes.

"I’ve already taken enough rest, Lilith. Take me to them," I said as I swung my legs over the side of the bed.

She hesitated.

"Lilith."

Something in my voice must have convinced her because she finally slipped an arm around my waist.

Whatever happened on that ground, no one could blame Jasmine alone. I was equally responsible.

I knew I could never defeat her, and yet I had still accepted her challenge.

When I reached the training grounds with Lilith, I was shaken to the core. The way Lucien’s golden eyes were blazing with fury, he didn’t even look like himself anymore.

The confident head warrior I met last night was gone. This woman wasn’t even fighting back. She was bruised, covered in dirt and blood. Queen Theodora and Princess Aliya stood there, doing nothing but crying with their hands over their mouths.

Pathetic!

They didn’t have enough courage to stop the king from doing something wrong. When they saw me there, the queen made a face while Aliya rolled her eyes.

I paid them no attention and walked straight to him.

"Put her down, Your Highness. Let her go," Once I reached behind him, I whispered in a weak voice. Lucien seemed to freeze when he heard me.

He wasn’t expecting me.

Watching me stand there, the disbelief was evident on his face. I saw his fingers loosening around Jasmine’s throat. She dropped to the ground with a heavy thud, struggling to breathe. But Lucien’s eyes? They never left mine.

I walked towards him, still a little shaky, and knelt beside Jasmine. She was half unconscious, but I was sure her wolf was strong enough to heal her.

"You should’ve talked to me first," I, at last, looked up at him, "This isn’t the time to discuss this, My King. Please send her to the hospital," I then turned to Beta Bradley.
