Chereads / When Fate Decides / Chapter 22 - Palace Guest

Chapter 22 - Palace Guest

Alpha Ethan, Beta Eddy, Kara together with the guards and maids and all occupants of the royal family assembled in front of the reception to welcome their guest.

"My good friend for life!" Alpha Ethan sounded immediately as his guest stepped out of his black Mercedes.

His face was plastered with a warm smile and eagerness. He walked to his friend, and the two gave each other a warm hug.

"Nice to visit again." The guest replied.

Lycan Chris was the great Lycan of Cima Pack. Cima pack was the second in command in the entire werewolf race, after the Cardias pack. This gave Lycan Chris a great advantage.

Aside from that, his pack possessed strong powers which were only peculiar to them. They had a special moonstone which only members of the pack could possess. And this moonstone gave them an edge of being the destined ones to stop the iluma moon effect.

After he got down from the car, the maids ushered him, the Alpha and the beta into the living room. The three men laughed on top of their voices as they tried to catch up with the old times. Adira walked in, she was carrying a tray of brown cookies and fruit juice. She bowed to the men, dropping the tray on the table and left immediately.

The three men couldn't get their eyes off her. Beta Eddy stared at her only because he wondered why Alpha Ethan would choose to still keep her alive. She would have been dead, for all he cared. He gawked at her, while she left, wondering if he could get to Alpha Ethan through her. He wanted to overthrow the royal family and since he was the beta and also the Alpha's cousin, he had royal blood.

Alpha Ethan on the other hand watched her because he still couldn't forget about her. He hated that he still had a soft spot for her, even after all these while.

While the Lycan simply stared at the beautiful figure before him. He wished he could turn her to his mistress and make her breed his pups. But that was forbidden for a human to become a breeder for the wolves.

They believed the pups would become half human and half wolf. And a time would come when the human pups would dominate and wipe out the wolf gene.

"I like her. If only she could breed my pups."

Lycan Chris said casually. He bit his lips as he sexualized Adira in his mind.

"Those curves are killing, but too bad she's human." He sounded again almost immediately.

Beta Eddy burst into an evil laughter while Alpha Ethan tried to keep cool. What Lycan Chris said had pissed him off but he didn't want to show it.

"It's so bad the council forbids it, and to think I'm even the chairman."

He continued, this time letting out a mild chuckle.

It was obvious he was already stripping Adira naked in his mind, considering the smirk on his face.

"Why are you laughing so hard my dear friend? Seems like you've hit?"

He asked Beta Eddy who was laughing uncontrollably, even when nothing was laughable in the situation.

"Nah, I can't hit such a dirty thing." He snapped.

He looked at Alpha Ethan who wasn't finding the conversation funny. It appeared Eddy had been laughing to infuriate him, and now calling Adira a dirty thing was intentional to infuriate him.

"Can we talk about something else?"

Alpha Ethan said finally, after he hissed.

"Well, why do I even care!" he howled at himself inwardly.

"I got your letter about the slave auction ceremony." Lycan Chris said in excitement.

"How about you sell her to me? You don't even have to wait till the event."

His request had taken Ethan aback, he was lost for some moments, while thinking of the best reply to give him. 

"She's not for sale." Ethan replied.

Adira walked in almost immediately, this time she was carrying a tray of Chinese rice, in company of two other maids, each carrying a different meal in their tray. Lycan Chris noticed Adira's clothes were brand newer than the rest and since he has been wanting to speak to her, he decided to utilize the opportunity.

"You!...yes you. Wait."

Lycan Chris commanded. The other two men watched in surprise. They didn't know what he was up to.

Adira on the other hand began to breathe with exertion. She dragged her moderate sized leg. He called her to the side and asked her to wait. And after the other maids had left he spoke the same thing about having Adira as a breeder again in Spanish.

Adira could understand Spanish and immediately she understood what he said, and unknown to them, she could understand Spanish. Adira never knew it was a crime for humans to breed pups for werewolves. 

She recalled the Alpha's cousin took about three slaves from the slave house a week ago. And that had been going on for a while. She was taken aback by her discovery.

"Why don't your clothes look as new as yours?"

Lycan Chris asked.

"She's just a slave, Chris. We have pressing matters to discuss, my dear friend." Ethan said calmly, trying to distract him.

"We have all day Ethan? Don't you think so?"

Beta Eddy asked, trying to counter what Alpha Ethan had said. 

"I can even stay as long as you want me to."

Lycan Chris replied.

Adira stood transfixed, she hated that she drew attention wherever she went. What disgusted her the most was that the Lycan now saw her as a possible sex slave.

I'll offer 3 million moonas."

The lycan said casually, expecting the alpha to jump into the offer.

"3 million moonas?" 

Adira and beta Eddy echoed simultaneously.

Immediately Adira got hold of herself and bowed immediately to apologize. She was just a slave and didn't have the right to speak to royalty except when asked to.

"I'm sorry my Lords."

She whispered under their breath, while taking a bow at the same time to the three men who were already staring at her.

"I already told you she's not for sale."

Alpha Ethan snapped. 

"Dismiss her, let's talk about important things."

He continued.

"For 3 million moonas?... haha haha you amuse me sometimes Ethan."

Beta Eddy sounded.

"Do you know how much 3 million moonas is?"

Besides she's just a slave and you have a slave auction ceremony coming up. Just wrap it up already, just wrap it up.

Beta Eddy sounded. He seemed to be losing his patience.
