Claimed

One day before the ceremony, there was a warrior that knocked on Brian’s door that asked him to come with him, because there was someone, who wanted to see him.

Brian was doulsful at test, but then he saw the emblem of the royal family at the door of the carriage, he had a wild guess, but he didn’t allow himself to get too hopeful, because hope was a painful thing to have

The warrior took him to one of a famous restaurant and then guided him to a private room, where there was someone, who had been waiting for him.

“Hallo, father.”

It was Althea, just like what he had hoped, but this situation was very surreal, Brian couldn’t believe his own eyes.

“Althea, is that really you, child?” Brian could feel his voice was trembling when he approached Althea. She looked beautiful and happy

“Yes” Althea walked toward her father. She had heard everything that had happened to her father in the last few months.

Alex kept checking on her family, even though she didn’t ask, just in case she wanted to reconnect with th and knew

about what happened to them.

Therefore, when Althea finally reached out to him and ask to know about what her parents and sister were doing. already had the answer for that.

Alex

She was surprised, but she wouldn’t put it passed hit that he must have come up with something like this. This man was unpredictable, but he did everything for her.

“Althea.” Brian called her name again, he finally met with her. “I am sorry, my child. I am truly sorry.

Brian couldn’t imagine what Althea had gone through in Killian’s hand and the knowledge kept him awake every night,

He wanted to punch that man harder in the face. He should have done that when he had the chance.

Althea then hugged her father. From what she heard, her father was no longer stayed with her mother and Willow and every day, without missing a day, Abigail would turn in his rented room to beg for him to accept her back, willow would come occasionally in order to persuade him.

However, every day as well, Brian would turn them down. He didn’t want to see them.

If it happened for a week or two. Althea could understand, but it had been going on for more than half a year and not even once Brian wavered, thus, she thought her father deserved a second chance, more so, she wanted him to be in her

ceremony

“Do you want to see Jasmine? Althen asked after a long hug

“Yes, please. Brian’s eyes lit up.

The fight between the prince and the alpha didn’t last for long because prince Dane managed to tackle him down and make him unable to move, which only angered the alpha even more.

Prince Dane then let go of him and then roared his order. “Shift”

In hierarchy, the alpha would be the highest in the pack, but this was not his pack, none of these people belonged to him and the prince was way more intimidating than him.

Therefore, without another choice, with the direct order from the bigger predator in the room, Killian didn’t have another chance but to oblige, even though it tore him apart to actually follow his order, he felt like he was going to kill this man, though it was only a thought..

“I don’t think you will be able to attend this ceremony with this behavior, Killian,” Dane said, he lamented when he saw the anger and killing intent in his eyes, he contemplated, touching his chin and nodded to himself. “Hm. I am right. You are not ready to attend this ceremony. I want you to sit this one out.”

“Bastard!” Killian roared again, he marched toward Dane, but helstopped himself before he did something stupid to this prince. “You didn’t have a better plan, did you? Even after a year, there is nothing significant that happened, there is no change and all of your attempt to sit on the throne is a failure!”

“If I were you, I will take back what you said earlier, because when I was no longer being nice to you to let slide all of your

1. ul. your head will be on the street.” Dane narrowed his eyes. “You are not really worth it actually, since I couldn’t see why that slut wanted to choose you over a king, so your presence here is not really helping with my plan, if you don’t want to listen to my order, you can walk out of this room and never return.”

Killian gritted his teeth, he had a lot of curse words that he wanted to deliver to him, but he held himself back, knowing the gravity of his situation, because the moment he walked out of this room and he was being kicked out of the palace, there was no way for him to be able to return and Dane knew that

“Yes, just like I thought,” he said lightly, nodding his head, as if Killian gave him the answer that he wanted to hear, “Sit this one out, alpha. We are going to talk again after I attending the ceremony.”

After saying that, Dane walked out of the room, his expression didn’t show any emotion and this only made Killian event enraged.

He couldn’t go to Althea’s ceremony!

But then, what he could do if he came to attend her ceremony, it was not like he was able to stop it. It would only burn his blood with rage.

Probably, it was wise to let him stay behind.

Yet, Killian picked up what he had been doing earlier, as he thrashed everything that he could touch and turn the room into a nightmare.

All the five warriors that came with him from the pack could hear his angry howl from behind the closed door and they didn’t say anything, not even shared a look with one another
