The Ruthless Lycan King Fell For His Slave Mate novel Chapter 112

As soon as Julian and Lyra got back to the palace, Beryl and Spencer took the flower and started making the antidote.

They had been gone less than an hour, but Zero’s condition had worsened. Even with Beryl and Spencer’s help, he would not have been able to hold on much longer without the antidote.

As for Anna, she was still unconscious, but there were no signs that she was in danger. There also hadn’t been any other incidents in the palace.

When Beryl administered the antidote to Zero, his condition started improving right away. As soon as he woke up, he looked around for Anna. When he did not see her, fear washed over him. Before losing consciousness, he had heard people calling for her execution.

“Where is Anna?” he asked Beryl, getting down from the hospital bed. “Is she okay? It was not her fault. She is not working for the witches.”

“We know,” Beryl told him. “The witch possessed her and made her do it. She is fine now, but she passed out and is in recovery. Don’t worry, she is safe. No one is going to hurt her.”

“Where is she? I want to see her,” Zero said, heading for the door.

His own condition was not entirely stable yet, but Beryl knew it would be useless trying to stop him. Going after him, she led him to the room where Anna was.

Anna was still asleep, but she was turning her head restlessly and mumbling incoherently, stuck in a nightmare. Zero grabbed a towel on the table and used it to dab sweat off her brow.

“I’m here,” he said to her, reaching for her hand. “It’ll be okay.”

When Anna stabbed him, he was shocked at first. But when the situation registered, he knew she had not done it willingly. Knowing that she was in the grip of the witch, he had wanted to protect her. But he had a poisoned silver needle in his chest, and he could barely form words as people pointed fingers at her and accused her of killing him.

He knew how relieved she was to finally be out of the witch’s control. He had promised her that after they got married, they would live happily in his pack, and no one would hurt her ever again. And yet, on the day that was supposed to be a beautiful memory for them, this happened.

Zero had wanted to catch the witch before, but now, he wanted it with a burning need. He would not rest until he found her and made her pay for everything she had done to Anna.

She had gotten away for so long, but not anymore. As long as she was out there, Anna would not be safe, and Zero could not have that.

Zero climbed on the bed and held Anna closely, whispering soothing words to her. A short while later, she stopped tossing and mumbling. After making sure that she was sleeping peacefully, he left the room and went to look for the others.

“Are you feeling alright?” Julian asked when Zero showed up to the meeting room and took a seat. After getting back and delivering the antidote, they had immediately started a security meeting to strategise on how to ambush the witch’s hideout.

“I’m fine,” Zero said. “What do we know about her?”
