The Ruthless Lycan King Fell For His Slave Mate novel Chapter 111

The snake had appeared out of nowhere and wrapped itself around Lyra so fast that Julian did not get a chance to warn her. It was long and thick, and its body was coiled around Lyra’s upper body and neck, its head poised to strike.

Julian’s heart froze in fear as the gravity of the situation registered. Both of them could not use their magic or werewolf abilities. From the size and appearance of the snake, he could tell it was not a normal one. It must be a magical beast.

Magical beasts normally had their own territories and attacked anyone who trespassed. However, Julian had never heard that the Deadly Swamp was territory to any magical beast.

The snake had only appeared after Lyra plucked out the flower, so it was more likely that the beast was guarding the flower, not the swamp.

“Throw away the flower,” he yelled at Lyra. “It’s guarding the flower. As long as you have it, it won’t let you go.”

Lyra did not want to let go of the flower, but she was aware that she could not afford to hesitate. Now, it made sense why Valeria had thrown the flower into the swamp. She had never intended on letting them get the antidote to treat Zero. She had known about the magical beast, and she knew the beast would kill whoever took the flower.

Using all her strength, Lyra threw the flower towards the land. Immediately, the snake uncoiled itself from her and slithered towards the flower. Lyra held her neck, where the snake had stung her.

“Are you okay? Did it sting you?” Julian called out to her.

“Yes, but I feel okay,” she told him. Looking at the snake that had coiled itself around the flower, she said, “We have to get the flower.”

Julian agreed. Magical beast or not, Zero’s life depended on that flower. They could not leave without it.

Brandishing his dagger, Julian ventured into the swamp. “Between the two of us, we should be able to distract it. Grab the flower when I draw it away.”

Lyra reached for her own dagger and nodded. Without their powers, they had to rely on their weapons and reflexes to beat the snake.
