The Mind-Reading Mate Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me novel Chapter 177

Chapter 177: A Widow in Another Life

She had never imagined that her death would cause such a massive chain reaction, one that tore through the kingdom, shattered her husband, and even ruined the fragile peace between beasts and humans.

If only Edmund had never loved her, then maybe all those catastrophic things could’ve been avoided.

But sadly—no, beautifully and tragically—he loved her so deeply that he no longer cared about his kingdom, his people, or even his own life.

In the end, Silas hadn’t just taken her life, but he had unknowingly destroyed the Kingdom of Beasts.

It was something he never planned, but one that secretly pleased him.

"I’m sorry, but ... could you leave me alone for a moment, Lady Raven?" Primrose whispered, forcing a smile that didn’t reach her eyes. "Maybe you can have a talk with Sir Vesper."

"Of course, Your Majesty." Raven immediately rose from her seat and gave her a respectful bow. "I’ll be outside if you need me."

[I still feel awkward talking to Salem,] Raven thought as she walked toward the door. [But that honey badger looks even more colorful than I remember. Is he working as a clown now?]

Primrose let out the tiniest laugh through her nose when she caught Raven’s inner thought.

See? She wasn’t the only one who thought Salem wore too many colors.

But since she had grown used to it, it would actually feel strange now to see him wearing something less vibrant.

Alright, forget about Salem. It was better for Primrose to go back to thinking about her husband.

As soon as Raven left the room, Primrose leaned her body to the side and laid down on the couch.

Right now, she wished she’d brought the bunny doll with her.

If she had, maybe Edmund could still see her ... maybe he could still hear her voice, even when they were apart.

But she was the one who left it behind, stubbornly saying, "You’ll be right beside me anyway."

Oh, how wrong she had been. She should’ve listened to him more.

She should’ve known that even just a few hours apart could feel like a lifetime.

She turned to face the ceiling, her mind swirling with thoughts about Edmund.

What did he do after leaving Noctvaris?

What kind of secret made him so angry that he led the Marquess to take his own life?

She thought about it all for so long but ended up with no answers at all.

At the end of the day, the only way to get the truth ... was to ask Edmund directly.
