The Last Lycan King Is My Slave novel Chapter 80

Chapter 80

ISIDORA

Two men were drinking while they worked in a yard nearby.

I hid at the corner of the alley and watched them through the gaps in the wooden fence.

“You have no idea how much I regret not going with Blaze from the start!” one of them growled, furious.

“It’s too late to think about that now. You know how it is. He won’t take anyone into his hunting crew, only the men who followed him from the beginning,” the other said bitterly as he kept tossing hay into the pens.

“Damn it! And the Alpha is an idiot. I went hunting with him, and that coward ran at the first sign of danger. He didn’t every stop to think his own son had been left behind!”

“Poor bastard. He’ll probably be crippled for the rest of his life. His wolf was too weak. Too bad Blaze has no interest in being Alpha,” they muttered, lowering their voices.

I pressed myself farther into hiding and prayed the strong stink from the pens would cover my scent.

The Alpha of this pack was definitely my number one suspect. Most likely, he was the intruder inside this dream.

That creature slipped into your fantasy and pretended to be someone else so it could spy on you, drain you, and become part of your fake happiness.

If I found it in time, if someone managed to break this trap apart, they said you could free yourself from its claws.

At least I had to try.

I tried going to the Alpha’s house with the excuse of bringing him the meat. After all, he was the leader.

But I only found the Luna. She was a skittish, nervous woman who barely let me step inside, and I hardly got a look at the place.

Too much mystery.

And when I left down the path in front of the house, I felt it again, that feeling of someone watching me with malice.

The Alpha’s house was the only two-story house in the whole pack, so my eyes went straight to one of the curtained windows.

I could have sworn the stare was coming from there, and that a shadow had moved behind the curtains. Was the Alpha inside, and had his wife lied to me?

I didn’t doubt it. That certainty kept growing in my chest. It made sense that the Alpha was really that creature pretending to be weak.

Maybe he had been working with those bandits from the beginning, just to make the whole thing more dramatic.

I stopped by my little business, but everything had already been picked up by those kind women from the hunters’ families. I sighed because, truthfully, I had always dreamed of something like that, a simple life selling my desserts and food.

I went back home with the sun almost gone, greeting people here and there while watching every single one of them as a possible suspect, just in case.

The moment I opened the door, I heard childish laughter and smelled meat roasting over the fire.
