Taking The Demon's Mate Chapter 116
Roxanne did not tarry when she received word from her nephew. Gathering a few men, she put things in place and left her homeland. It took days traveling by an airship, but she finally touched down in Kellet.“Axel, you said it was urgent.” Roxanne managed to stay composed despite her troubled mind. She was never one to show emotion, though she never imagined Axel would have company. “Queen Basma, Lady Maren…” She was surprised to see them.“Aunt, we have to stop him,” Axel said helplessly.“Nephew, what’s going on?” Roxanne’s brow scrunched. Axel sighed, glancing at the women before speaking. His statements were precise and brief, but Roxanne needed stronger reasons to meddle in her brother’s warfare.“Why would Theoden call it off after all Arlen Braddock did to the great clans?”“My nephew has done nothing,” Queen Basma interjected with a sarcastic smirk.Roxanne raised a brow. “Your nephew?”“I raised that boy. He is incapable of striking the innocent - not for the likes of your de

"You seem distant. What's on your mind?" Owen had served dinner by the fire, yet his companion hardly touched his share. "It's just me and you, Julius. You're safe with me.""You have to take me back to my Master," Julius pleaded. Reed was not a man he could hurt without hurting himself."You really care about him," Reed said."Do not look at me that way," Julius' lips curved into a dubious smile. "Master Arlen and I are like sworn brothers - a soul flame. One does not go without the other.""Hmm... I figured. But where does that leave me?""You?"Their eyes met in awkward silence. Not even the night could stop Reed from getting lost in that glow."Buried somewhere in my soul... Pfft... I'm sorry, I don't know where that came from," the beta said, scratching his head and looking back at the fire with a flushed face.Owen grinned, staring closely at the man next to him with a profound longing. The Prince was right - there was something else besides rage inside this beta. Without holdin

Julius thought he had fallen into a dream when he woke up in an old bed, cooped up in a different setting than the one he slept in the night before. Sitting up, the world appeared brighter. He could hear the shrill melody of birds chirping and a rushing stream sweeping over pebbled rocks. There was a faint throb in his head, but it subsided as he gathered himself.A pair of straw slippers sat beside the bedpost, along with a bamboo hat perched on the side.Julius' mind remained blank even as he stepped outside the wooden hut. The tranquillity of nature greeted him with a glimmer he had not seen in days. His feet stumbled a few times as he moved further away from where he had slept. When they came within inches of the clear stream, he stopped. Something about this stillness felt off- too off for someone like him."You're awake."His gaze shot away from the water. He adjusted his footing as the familiar voice approached, attached to a tall, healthy man. Thick dark brows, kind eyes, a we

"Yes, Uncle. You wanted to talk?" Rufus stood before Caesar, his father seated at the King's right hand.Caesar poured himself a drink before getting to the point. "Nephew, how would you feel about acting as regent of Ingram someday?""Pardon me?" Rufus glanced at his father, then back at Caesar."As you know, my son is a flower. Arlen will need a strong alpha by his side to safeguard his kingdom and position." Caesar set his cup down with a thud."Uncle, Luca Beaumont is-""You and your family have protected my son since the day he left home. Am I wrong to assume you care about him?" Caesar's countenance turned solemn, as if the mere mention of Luca's name was taboo."Of course not. Arlen is dear to my heart," Rufus murmured, lowering his gaze. The thought of his darkest desires coming true outweighed his sense of shame."Good. That is what I wished to hear. I've heard many things about the giant of Candor, an alpha who is fearless and swift to defend Ingram against any aggressor. Wh

Axel barged into his father’s tent as the troops waited for orders to march. “Father, perhaps you should reconsider this war. I spoke to Lady Maren… It seems Luca is already in Ingram.” Theoden adjusted his outer robe. “And she knows this because?” “Luca came to her. He was with Rufus Loughty and David. We can’t proceed without considering their safety.” “You’re mistaken. This gives us even more reason to take down Ingram.” “Father, I beg you, let’s approach this with caution. What if my brother was right and the real culprit wasn’t Arlen? If the other kingdoms lose their heirs, all of this will have been for nothing.” “I forbid you from mentioning this to Zavian. Claude’s son has always been a rebel at heart-it’s not my concern if he gets caught in the fire.” “And Luca? Are you going to doom him as well?” “Think of the people who have died because King Caesar and his son are still alive! Your brother has been brainwashed, Axel. Once that family is dead, we’ll finally be

"Master David, your brother must be very proud of you," Zariah said, clearly impressed by David's wittiness. David chuckled. "Haha, thank you, General, but my brother thinks I’m a wimp." Zariah smiled at the alpha. "Clearly, he’s blind. Stick close to me for the time being. You might learn something new." Her eyes lingered on David for a moment before shifting to the couple in the room. "Arlen," she began, "You will help the citizens hide and use the dead to steer those armies as planned, but not away from the main city. Instead, toward it, closer to Kraken Mountain. If we can get through to the kings, we can offer them the real criminal who burned down their towns to appease them." Arlen’s heart clenched. "What?" Zariah continued as if she hadn’t noticed his distress. "Your father is meeting with the council as we speak. He’s waiting for me to give the final word because he trusts me, as you should. This is my decision. While your ghouls draw the armies towards the coastal
