Chapter 649 - SHE WILL BE KILLED EVENTUALLY

"I am keeping tabs on her," said Jedrek, replying to Maximus\'s question. He looked down to the red liquid inside his glass, and swirled it casually.

Maximus looked at Jedrek intensely while talking nonsense. He was desperately trying to figure out the Lycan King\'s emotion right now. He was searching for some response in his eyes to the sight of his mate being together with another man.

Yet, Jedrek didn\'t show any emotion at all. There was only his usual cold demeanor shown on the surface as he half-listened to Maximus, and nothing else. The first general kept talking about all the benefits that they could get with keeping the guardian angel alive by their side, and killing her later after using her. He mentioned about the pain that Jedrek would experience after terminating his mate.

He had the nerve to say that the pain of losing his mate would be nothing, saying that Jedrek would be able to handle it. Oh, Maximus just didn\'t know what pain was…

"You just need to drink that regularly." Maximus nodded at the drink in Jedrek\'s hand that he kept on swirling.

"What about the progress of your search for Kace and his mate? Tell me about that instead." Jedrek seemed to change the topic since he put zero interest in any of Maximus\'s babble, while watching as Tordoff escorted Lilac to the north wing, and their figures disappeared in the dark night. They were already too far from his sight.

Meanwhile, Maximus chuckled upon hearing his question. He shook his head, "That spoilt brat is very smart, he has been avoiding me in the most astute way possible. Not only that, it seems like he knows the human realm very well. I don\'t even remember if he had been there for that long before to the point where he could tell every corner of the realm."

Maximus talked like a proud brother the moment when he was talking about Kace, and his brilliant escape strategy. But one could see his true emotion through his vicious eyes that glinted with murderous intent. He couldn\'t get rid of the fact that Kace always got away from his grip. His failure bruised his pride tremendously. And he wouldn\'t stop until he restored it by capturing that youngest Donovan in his hand.

Jedrek shoved the glass towards Maximus, and he caught it out of instinct. Jedrek now looked a little offended, "Address him properly, no matter what, he is still and will always be a royalty, and above all, part of the Donovans." Jedrek said calmly. But he showed a clear warning behind his words. He was displeased with Maximus\'s disrespectful manner towards his brother.

The corner of Maximus\' lips tugged upward when he heard that, "Are you sure, you still want to kill his mate when you keep yours?" he asked in a mocking tone. But then, Jedrek turned around and met Maximus\'s vicious eyes. Still there was no emotion behind his eyes could be seen. "She will be killed in the end, didn\'t you say that?"

Maximus nodded in satisfaction. "Right, as you wish, Your Majesty, Sir."

==============

Lilac\'s bleeding was still not close to stopping. Tordoff sighed as he realized that the girl didn\'t have the fast healing ability, unlike the lycan he was. Because she was not a shapeshifter. That\'s why he brought her to see the healer to check on her injury, instead of escorting her directly to the north wing.

The healer lived in the castle, not far from the north wing. Since shapeshifters had the healing ability, the service of the healer was not needed that often. When they got there, the old healer saw Tordoff first and nodded upon seeing the general\'s arrival. Then, she put her attention on Lilac. "What happened to you child? Who stabbed you?" asked the old healer, she was a little concerned with her condition.

"I stabbed myself," Lilac murmured her answer. She told Tordoff that they didn\'t have to go to see the healer for her wound. But Tordoff kept insisting, and there they were. The healer said the wound would be fine after three days, and that her hand would just like brand new after a few weeks. But, it was not a pleasing answer for him. He thought it was too long for a wound recovery.

He was worried because the young general was under the obligation of keeping her safe after all. It was his duty to protect her. The old healer widened her eyes and looked at Tordoff. There was something in his expression that told her to not question anything. And then, she mumbled, "I will get something to stitch your wound."

When it was only the two of them, Lilac confronted the general. "Really, don\'t you remember that you were trying to kill me three days ago? Now you\'re making a fuss over this wound?" Lilac waved her injured hand at him mockingly. In response, he just chuckled, then took a seat near the door. "Well, that was different. You barged into the castle with your magical super plants that we had never seen before."

"So, what is the difference now?" Lilac raised her eyebrows.

"Now I know that you are a guardian angel," he replied simply.

"As long as I could remember, that time, I introduced myself as a guardian angel." Lilac reminded him.

Tordoff raised his eyebrow, mimicked Lilac\'s tone when he answered her. "Yeah right, you introduced yourself after you turned the great hall into a small forest. All with our guards bonded to the floor, and the wall. How could you expect us to pay attention to your introduction?"

"Well, for my defense, I\'d like to say that they didn\'t die." Lilac justified her action.

"Barely," Tordoff corrected her and gave her a smile when he saw the guardian angel was pouting her lips. She was clearly annoyed. And then he added, "Now I know you will not kill them, but it was a different case at that time."

"What? If it\'s not because of this stupid order that Jedrek tasked you to, telling you to look after me, I am more than certain that we would have been in the middle of another battle right now."

"But we are not," said Tordoff making his point. "And I am glad that His Majesty the Alpha King considered his decision again, knowing that you are a guardian angel." Hearing his answer was not enough to stop her from getting annoyed. Thus, she scoffed. Jedrek had known her identity as a guardian angel, and his mate a long, long time ago. Way before she barged into his castle, the first time they met.

It could not be denied that their first encounter wasn\'t pleasant either.

"Right. Thanks to his generosity. I\'m so grateful." Lilac nodded quickly, she wished to end this discussion as soon as possible. "Tell him that I am so grateful about it," she added sarcastically.

Not long after that, the healer came back. She started by cleaning Lilac\'s wound, and then stitched her skin to close the hideous looking wound. While all that was ongoing, Tordoff watched, and studied her face closely. He learned that except the small frown between her brows, the girl didn\'t show any sign of discomfort at all. He found it odd, and could not believe that the girl was really a guardian angel.
