All Chapters of The Banished Mate Of The Lycan King: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

Athena“How do we even find the traitor Lena was talking about?” I asked as Azrael and I sat deep inside the forest behind the kingdom.He had insisted we meet there because he no longer trusted the palace. According to him, his office and even his apartment could have been bugged by the faceless enemy hiding within the kingdom. If someone had been feeding Crescent Moon our war strategies for years, then nowhere inside the palace could be considered safe anymore.We had failed to force the truth out of Lena. The moment she finished revealing that a traitor was hiding among us, she had grabbed the knife Azrael had driven into her thigh and plunged it into herself before either of us could stop her.She had chosen death over betrayal. I made sure her body was burned to ashes before we left the dungeon. We couldn't afford to take any chances. With everything we had learned about Crescent Moon, I wasn't willing to risk anyone using her body for dark magic or bringing her back in any form.

Athena"Don't you think this is a bit too harsh?" I asked as I stepped into his office and closed the door behind me. "Throwing your Beta into the dungeon over mere suspicions? He said he doesn't know anything about those burner phones."Azrael didn't even look convinced. "I don't believe a single word that comes out of his mouth," he said firmly. "Explain the phones and the drugs. There is no way on earth Gabriel is innocent." His expression darkened even more. "Let's not even talk about the top-level classified information that only the two of us knew about and how it somehow ended up in Crescent Moon's hands."He shook his head. "I swear to you, Athena. Gabriel is behind all of this."I let out a slow breath. At this point, I was exhausted.Ever since Gabriel had been arrested, everything had been chaotic. Talia had come to me in tears, begging me to believe he was innocent. After seeing how broken she was, I went to visit Gabriel myself. He insisted that he had been set up and kne

Athena "Raven?" Azrael called out, his voice filled with disbelief. Raven slowly lifted her head and gave a weak nod. Tears gathered in her swollen eyes as she struggled to adjust to the bright daylight after the hood covering her face was ripped away. She looked nothing like the confident woman everyone remembered. She had lost a frightening amount of weight. Dark bruises covered her face, split her lips, and spread across her neck and arms. Even from where I stood, I could see the marks of countless beatings all over her body. Azrael stared at her in shock, unable to believe what he was seeing. "Is this another one of your twisted games?" he shouted at the Crescent Moon general. "How is she alive? I watched her body burn with my own eyes." The general threw his head back and laughed as if he had just heard the funniest joke. "That was nothing more than a witch's trick," he said with a smug smile. "I'm sure your mate knows exactly how those work." He looked in my direction, an

AzraelHad Athena completely lost her mind? My eyes stayed locked on her as she held the gun against Raven's head."Stop this madness," I warned, my voice cold and dangerous. "Don't make a mistake we will both regret."To my surprise, she smiled. "A mistake?" she asked quietly. "Something like this?" Before anyone could react, she lowered the gun slightly and pulled the trigger.Bang! Raven let out a piercing scream. The bullet tore through her leg, and she collapsed to the ground, clutching the wound as blood quickly soaked through her clothes.Mother cried out in horror and dropped to her knees beside her. The elders stumbled backward in shock, while the warriors instinctively reached for their weapons. The entire courtyard descended into chaos.My patience finally snapped. I stormed toward Athena, barely able to contain my rage. She had been acting strangely for days, and I had ignored it, believing she had her reasons.But this, this was beyond anything I could tolerate. Before I

Azrael“She is going to be hanged, but torture her until she confesses who the other spies in the kingdom are. If you have to cut off her fingers and toes one after another to make her talk, I do not care,” I said as I turned towards Theo. “Release Gabriel and make sure he gets treatment as soon as possible.”Theo immediately moved to carry out my orders. Raven suddenly threw her head back and laughed. There was no fear in her eyes, even though she knew exactly what awaited her.“Even if you kill me, a thousand will rise in my place, and they will make sure this kingdom goes down,” she yelled. “You will never find the scroll, and Crescent Moon will always come for you until we conquer you.” The hatred in her voice was unlike anything I had ever heard from her before.I stared at her for a moment, studying her face, she truly believed they had already won. “That’s if what those morons think they have is the real scroll,” I said.Her expression changed instantly, her eyes widened.“You
