Chapter 376: The Northern Field

Zane’s POV

Our spirits were high as we walked through the forest. Astrid was with Eden and they were both safe. There were no words for the relief I felt. Just hearing her voice, even if it was through a mindlink, was the most welcome, most wonderful sound in the world.

So Alpha Skylar’s army was large. Far larger than we’d expected from the sounds of it. But Astrid had come up with a good plan. She was right. A lot of the packs had formed an alliance with Skylar ONLY because he promised them things they wanted. As far as Skylar was concerned, he’d soon be Alpha King.

But he wasn’t king yet.

I was still the king, the Lycan King. And whatever he promised them, I could give them NOW. Land, resources, money, protection. Whatever they wanted it was within my reach to bestow it onto them.

They’d take my offer. They’d lay down their weapons. I was sure of it. There would be no more fighting. This war would end TODAY.

Then we’d go back to the palace. We’d have a Queen’s Coronation for Eden.
