Chapter 717 - DROP YOUR PRETENSE

His Gregory family was one of the most powerful family when Janus was still an Alpha. However, because of the wrong decision that they made, Jedrek sentenced his whole family to death.

Maximus was lucky enough to survive that massacre by pretending to turn his back on his family and gave them up. They had planned it like that when they found out that the devil would lose the war. If he didn\'t do so, he would have died by now and the Gregory family line would have ended at that faithful day.

Actually, it wasn\'t only his family that turned their back on the lycanthropes, but all the dragon shifter had done that as well. However, they were still alive and was free to roam around the realm, even though there was a vow that they couldn\'t break.

All this time, Maximus carried the hatred and vengeance on his shoulder. That was why, he followed Jedrek when he was no longer put his loyalty to him. The only thing that he wanted to see was Jedrek died in the same way he demolished his entire family.

"All of you can go." Jedrek waved his hand and let the other three general to leave him alone with Maximus.

"I heard what happened in the city center," Maximus spoke calmly. "In the end you killed both of your parents." He arranged his words in such a way that it sounded as if Maximus didn\'t blame Jedrek, but still that should make the king feel uncomfortable by presenting such a reality right before him.

However, Jedrek didn\'t even flinch when he heard that. "Right, I finally killed both of them. I should have done that earlier before more victims fell to support his fake life." He locked his blue eyes on Maximus. "My mother lived, just like what the devils promised. But, she had never opened her eyes or spoke a word. What kind of life was that?"

It was true, Asmodeus kept her promise, but apparently Janus didn\'t mention specifically what kind of life did Diana have to live.

"I understood your point," Maximus said. "But, not only with Asmodeus your father has made a deal."

Jedrek didn\'t respond to that, he just stood there silently, waiting for Maximus to talk more. It seemed there was a tacit understanding between them now.

"Janus promised the Kingdom to the Greed. Do you know what the consequences when you killed Diana?" Maximus plucked one of the red flowers in this garden and crushed it. "Not only you open Tartarus, but your whole Kingdom will collapse. It is only a matter of time, before it happened."

Jedrek chuckled, but there was no humor in his blue eyes. "So, you indeed know the consequences all along."

Jedrek never really knew the true consequences of his actions. It was only after the gates to Tartarus had opened that he thought that was what would happen, but it turned out that there was more to come.

His father\'s love to his mate was truly overwhelming. He wouldn\'t bat his eyes when he handed over the kingdom to the devil.

Jedrek didn\'t know, whether he should laugh or cry for this.

"It is already late at night, we will talk about this later. I bet you must not have been drinking that potion in quite a while. I\'ll make it for you right away." Maximus said. "I heard Serefina and your two brothers are coming. I guarantee this time I will succeed in killing those Guardian angels." He was about to excuse himself when Jedrek spoke.

"Stop your pretense," he said impassively. "No one will kill the guardian angel and I don\'t remember that the last order I gave to you was to kill Kace\'s mate."

Jedrek indeed had ordered Maximus to kill guardian angel in the past, his own mate including, but his last order never mentioned anything like that. He even said he wanted the guardian angel to be brought to him alive, so Kace would return as well, knowing his mate was in Jedrek\'s hands. However, the general interpreted his words differently.

"Sure, your Majesty." Maximus turned around, as if there was nothing happened and their conversation was not important enough to hold his interest. "I will bring your drink."

Luckily, Maximus was on high alert, so he could feel a dagger flying past his face and he dodged it in time.

"What did that mean?" He turned around and watched Jedrek face that devoid from any emotion.

"What are you doing in front of my door?" Lilac couldn\'t sleep because she felt there was someone who was standing right in front of her chamber and as it turned out, it was Warlock.

"Just enjoy the view," Warlock replied nonchalantly. He leaned his tall body against the wall while staring at the beautiful moon.

Lilac narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "You can enjoy the view from your own room."

"My room doesn\'t have this kind of view." Warlock glanced at Lilac and shrugged his shoulder. "You can go inside and continue to sleep."

"Is it Jedrek\'s order?" Lilac guessed, no excuse makes more sense than that. There was no way the general would be here if it was not Jedrek\'s order. Despite, Warlock looked less hostile than most of the general, but there were no in good terms too, just like Lilac and Tordoff.

"If I say \'no\', will you believe me?" Warlock raised his eyebrows.

"What is he up to now?" Lilac groaned in annoyance.

Warlock shrugged, but at the same time, someone approached them and called out her name.

"Tordoff?"
