Semua Bab Fated To The Ruthless Alpha King: Bab 121 - Bab 130

“You sent for me, sire?”“Yes, Renard.” Damian gestured to the chair in front of him. “Sit.”“Is anything the matter, sire?”“Yes, of course. There is a matter. I found out something very surprising today…”“Surprising? As how?”“Katrina… is pregnant, Renard.”Renard’s heart leaped with feelings of joy and fear at the same time. He already knew why he was called here. He already knew the questions alpha Damian was about to ask.“My former mistress… Katrina… is pregnant, and I have no idea who it might have been. I know it’s not me, because my mate and I have been married for almost a year and I have not since touched Katrina after that time. So, it’s definitely not me.”“Who… who do you think it is, sire?”Damian shrugged. “I don’t know… you tell me. I placed her in your care, Renard. You’ve been watching her like you said. You’ve clearly spent more time with her than I did the past few months so you must have an idea of who this expectant father is.”Renard bent his head, not daring

“Hello beautiful,” Damian greeted a tired Miranda as she walked into the room.“Hello handsome,” she greeted back before welcoming herself into his arms for a small kiss.After they broke embrace, she went straight to asking him about something that’d been troubling her mind since, for she’d had to leave to attend to her duties earlier in the day.“How is Katrina? What did the healer say? Is she okay?”“She is more than okay,” he answered. “She is pregnant.”Miranda didn’t hide her surprise. The one that mirrored Damian’s when he too, found out.“Pregnant? Surely… you didn’t…”“No. Of course, I didn’t. Why would you think that?”“It’s not that… sorry, I just…”“Renard. My beta, the one I put in charge of her, is the one responsible.”She gasped, “did he rape her or something?”“No. Apparently, they both fell in love and the pregnancy happened by mistake, but Katrina does not want to get married yet. She wishes to take things slowly and build her relationship with him first.”“Oh, that

With her words, Damian couldn’t comprehend where all of this was coming from.“I don’t understand… when did you find out you were barren? What have you been up to, Miranda?”She closed her eyes and sighed, before slowly revealing everything that had happened, how she suddenly became conscious of the fact that she hadn’t yet conceived, and what led her to finding out about her barrenness. Damian listened carefully, letting her take her time. Much to her surprise, he didn’t seem upset by the news, even after she’d laid out everything for him.“I don’t know what’s the cause, Damian… the fertility doctor said it was a genetic problem… I… I…He interrupted her, “Miranda.”Sniffs, “yes, Damian?”He slowly placed a hand on her chest as he stared deeply into her eyes, “I want you to calm down… I just want you to relax.”He didn’t say any words to her just yet; he didn’t let her know what he thought of the situation, even though he already had the answer in his mind.No matter how she is, he l

***THREE DAYS LATER***Miranda had arranged a meeting with the circle the previous day. The men that Damian had sent them where plenty and would be sufficient to defend their lands, but there were still lots of helpless wolves to protect, Miranda’s heart still feared for them, the majority of which were the children and the disabled.During the meeting, one of the elders then proposed an evacuation for those helpless wolves, an idea she wished had come up earlier, but there was still time to make it happen. If they hurried up, they could still make it happen.That morning, she got up early to survey the terrain borders, to ensure that the coast was clear and that the Lotus wolves would not encounter any difficulty as they all travelled to the safety of the silver walls. Miranda had already made plans with her husband prior to this morning regarding that.She went to the mountains with two silver soldiers, and one of her friends, Audrey, where they would get a better view of the neighb

Miranda couldn’t hear the sound of her own voice shouting… the pain in her heart drained all her thoughts aside."Why…? Why would he do that? Why would he ask her to fight when he could have rather used anyone?""We all tried to change his mind, but out of those left alive, there was no one else whose battle skills he was more certain of than hers. Many of our strongest hands had already been killed. We were running out of soldiers and…"Miranda had heard enough… “stop it!”"My queen… I…"“I said, that’s enough! You don’t come to me twenty years later and start giving me silly explanations on a matter that could have been avoided. She could have still been alive! You all could have still had your queen, but no, you chose to listen to that man I mistakenly called a father for so many years and send a pregnant woman to battle able men like you. You all should be ashamed of yourselves!!"She was speaking from pain. Rory understood this well, as he could already see the tears escaping her
