Chapter 90
“This is bad,” Eiten replied to Declan’s question. “How is Max p>
The royal beta furrowed his brows. “If you wanted to deliver bad news to Maximus right now, I recommend you not to do it.” Declan shook his head. “This is not the right time p>
As if on cue, they heard the breaking sound from Rania’s bedroom again.
“I thought there is nothing else he can destroy anymore.” Eiten grimaced p>
“He punched a hole to the other room, and now he is thrashing his own room”
“Heaven!” Eiten massaged his chest. He didn’t think he could face Maximus when he was on the peak of his madness, especially with the news. He was not sure how he would react.
“So, what have you learned by visiting her in the dungeon?” Declan asked sarcastically. If it was up to him, he wanted that woman die. Death sentence would suit her. Unfortunately, he didn’t have a say in this matter.
“She is pregnant,” Eiten blurted out because he didn’t know what else to say.
“What?!” Declan turned his body around, and shook his shoulders. “Don’t joke with me, this is not funny at all p>
Eiten frowned. “I don’t intend this to be funny. I am not in the mood to joke around too, you know.” How could he be so care less to joke around with Declan in this kind of situation?
“Then what do you mean she is pregnant p>
Eiten glared at Declan for asking the stupid question. “They had sex, a lot. The smell of sex that came from Maximus every morning always got me dizzy, don’t tell me that you don’t notice that p>
Delcan crossed his arms in front of his chest, clearly upset with the way Eiten was talking with him, but he paid no mind, as he said what was in his mind.
“Do you think this is her other trick p>
“What do you mean p>
“She got pregnant just now, how convenience that is when the situation is very critical. She might think this pregnancy will help her to get away from the death sentence.
Eiten blinked his eyes when he heard the theory, and then got upset. “She is not that cunning p>
“How could you say that when she had been poisoning Maximus without anyone knowing it?” Eiten challenged him.
“Instinct.” Eiten had to admit that he didn’t have concrete evidence to stand up for Rania, but his gut feeling told him so. He believed with his instinct, that’s why he came to the dungeon.
See? If Eiten didn’t go to the dungeon, Rania might have died by now, and now his instinct told him to save
her.
Damn it.
“She is not a schemer p>
“I don’t want to talk with you if you keep denying what’s in your eyes p>
“Sometimes, the truth is something you can’t see p>
Declan couldn’t say anything anymore after that, because Eiten was really good with his words. But now, they were left with a huge problem; how to tell Maximus about the pregnancy.
“Let’s go inside. We will face him together. At the very least, we have a good chance to survive if we are together p>
Declan patted Eiten’s shoulder. “Good luck. I am not going to get inside and get myself killed.” And after saying that, Declan walked away.
“Hey, where are you going?! How am I supposed to tell Maximus about it?!” Eiten was frustrated, but Declan didn’t stop walking away.
“If you can’t say it, don’t tell him, there is nothing good will come from Maximus knowing it. More so,” this time Declan turned around to face Eiten. “I don’t think a baby that was born from a wolfless shifter will be strong enough to be the heir p>
“You are going too far, Declan,” Eiten growled at him, but the royal beta didn’t seem to care, as he continued walking away.
“You can deal with it by yourself, but if you ask my advice, I prefer for you not to say anything p>
Eiten watched Declan retreating back, he stayed there for a long moment before he could decide what he was going to do now.
But, the answer was obvious; he needed to let Maximus know what happened.
“I feel like I am going to die for real…” Eiten sighed, and steeled his heart to enter the wreckage room. Seeing the condition of the room alone already made the royal gamma’s heart pounded heavily. “Here we go p>
Eiten stepped inside, and saw a huge hole that went through to the other room, where Maximus was still trying to destroy everything he could get from his own room.
It had been so long since the last time he was in his room, because he would spend his night with Rania most of the time.
“Max,” Eiten called him carefully.
“What happened with her? How is she? Why she has not yet woken up?” Alaric kept asked the new palace
healer.
“She is very weak, there is nothing much I can do,” Karin replied. She was trying to be patient with Alaric, but this man started to get on her nerves. “I have told you that she didn’t have her wolf spirit, so she can’t heal like normal shifter do. She will need to take a long time before she can regain her consciousness. ”
Alaric cursed under his breath, continued with his ranting about why they didn’t take Rania away when her condition was very critical.
“She will be alright, right?” Alaric finally sat down, he leaned against the bars, tried to be as close as possible with his daughter, but it was hard to see her like this.
She looked very pale, even under the dimly light, she looked like a ghost.
Her body was bundled up with blanket, and her hair matted to the side of her face. Yet, you could see that she was far from being alright.
“I am not sure. She is very weak,” Karin replied. She was also scared, because no matter what, Rania was with the king’s firstborn.
