Chapter 92
Half a day.
Eiten then stared at the sky that had started to turn bright. It was day already. Half a day was a very short time for him to convince Maximus.
He would still be very angry to think straight, but Eiten knew Maximus would regret it later when he calmed down.
Yet, half a day was not enough time.
Shit.
What should I do?
“Do your best to keep both of them safe.” Eiten watched how Karin looked like she wanted to cry, even though she nodded reluctantly.
The healer had told him in detail that she couldn’t do it, but the royal beta still asked this from her.
“I can’t promise anything, but let’s see what I can do,” Karin finally said.
“Thank you, Karin p>
And after saying that, Eiten went out of the cell, he put a warrior with the healer, to help her if she needed anything.
After that, Eiten went to the interrogation room, where he found Alaric was sitting on the floor. There was nothing in this interrogation room, it was an empty room.
“Tell me everything about the Movement p>
Alaric scoffed, and Eiten felt the urge to kill him right there and then, but he couldn’t do it.
“Why I should tell you about it p>
“Because this is the only way to save your daughter p>
Alaric lifted his eyes, his gaze was cold. “Why do you think I want to save her?” He pressed his lips, as he wrung his fingers anxiously.
Maximus still held the morning meeting, but none of the elders talked outrageously, because they could feel the murderous intention that came from the king.
They were scared the king would go out of the handle and kill them on the spot. They wouldn’t put it above him not to do that.
with the king.
However, to their horror, the morning meeting lasted longer than usual, and Maximus lashed out for little detail that they presented wrongly.

Once it was done, and they were dismissed, all of them immediately scurried away, as if they were running for their life.
However, there was only one elder that stayed. It was Elder Gayel. He stood in front of the king, staring straight at him, but said nothing, which only irritated Maximus.
“What do you want?” Maximus snapped at Gayle, as he leaned his back against his throne, and then closed his eyes. He was too tired for this bullshit.
“You wronged her, boy p>
There would be only one person, who dared to call the Mad King as ‘boy‘, and live to see the next sunrise.
Maximus opened his eyes, and his aura became even more murderous. “I don’t need your opinion. Scram from my sight before I killed you p>
“You can kill me, but you are going to listen to what I want to say p>
Maximus grabbed his crown, and then threw it away. The heavy crown grazed elder Gayle’s cheeks, it drew blood, but it didn’t do any harm on him, since the wound immediately healed.
Elder Gayle saw that coming, but he didn’t even move to avoid it, because he knew it was not Maximus’s intention to harm him. If he wanted, the crown would have hit his head without missing its target.
“Say whatever shitty think you want to tell me, and then scram from my sight!” Maximus roared, he stood up, and watched Elder Gayle approached him, but he stopped at the end of the platform, he didn’t bring himself closer to the king.
“I know your heart Maximus. This is not what you want. You are hurt, that’s why you are hurting your mate.” Elder Gayle shook his head. “I had heard everything. I know you feel betrayed because she poisoned you, but there must be more into it p>
Maximus scoffed. “More into it?” He raised his brows incredulously. “What are you trying to say old man? She didn’t know that the thing she gave me was poison p>
“Maximus,” Elder Gayle called his name gently, the way he did when Maximus was little. “When someone hurt you, you wanted to hurt them back. That’s an instinct p>
After all, Maximus did the same. He was hurt, abused by his father, therefore, he wanted to kill him. Elder Gayle explained that much to the king.
“If there is someone, who can understand Rania’s motive, it will be you. You have gone through the same thing like her.” Elder Gayle then cut Maximus off before he could speak. “I don’t say that she is not at fault for poisoning you, but if we wanted to talk about fault, did you have none p>

Elder Gayle pointed that out.
Maximus was not innocent in this matter too. In any case, he was the main reason why Rania wanted to kill him. He was not being nice either in the beginning of their meeting.
“You hurt her,” Elder Gayle stated that fact. “Don’t you think it’s a little bit hypocrite of you not to think that she wanted to kill you because of that p>
Maximus gritted his teeth. He couldn’t deny that. He wanted to kill anyone that hurt him, thus he should expect the same thing from other people.
“But she stopped right? What did she say to you? The reason why she stopped poisoning you p>
Elder Gayle gave him a rhetorical question. He already knew the answer because Eiten had come to him for help. If the royal gamma couldn’t talk his way out, and the royal beta refused to help, thus the only option was Elder Gayle.
“She stopped poisoning you because she wants to be with you. Don’t you think that’s a valid enough reason? You started treating her well, so she changed her mind p>
Elder Gayle walked closer toward the king.
“Don’t hurt her any further than this. You are only hurting yourself in the process p>
