Chapter 135: Regaining Conscious

She sensed the warm lips glued to her own before she saw Ramose's enlarged face. Her heart skipped a beat and her face flushed.

"Slap!"

Without hesitation, she slapped the man's face, who fell to the side in a stunned daze.

"You...you...you wolf! What a beast! What in the Nar were you doing!?" Embarrassed and flustered, Versailles picked up the ice worms wriggling around her and hurled them at the beast.

"You dare take advantage of me in my sleep? See if I don't teach you a lesson today!" She was so angry that she didn't even notice the wolf only staring blankly at her. His dark, muddy eyes filled with tears, and unable to restrain his turbulent emotions, he lunged forward and enveloped her in an overbearing hug.

"Versailles, Versailles...Light, you are back. You didn't leave me. I knew you wouldn't leave me. I knew it!" Crying and laughing hysterically, Ramose pampered her face with kisses, making her face redden.

"You beast, you are still at it?" Versailles cursed as she hit him on the back, trying to disentangle herself from him.

But how could Ramose, whose heart froze and life plunged into darkness let her go so easily? Her motionless form was still fresh in his mind, making him want to spend the rest of his eternity tightly stuck to her body, wrapped in her warm embrace as he listened to her racing heart.

From the moment her writing figure fell into his arms, he felt his heart go dead as the only light in his life winked out. Time crawled at an excruciatingly slow speed, while at the same time, it felt as if an eternity had passed while he remained stuck in a cold and empty void.

"Versailles, I love you." He softly whispered the words in her ear, causing her struggling form to freeze before her body shivered.

"I love you, do you hear?" He repeated, encouraged by her reaction. At this moment, Ramose wanted nothing more than to tell his mate how much he loved her.

"Huh?"

Versailles was stumped. What was up with the Werewolf King? He seemed a little different from usual, more expressive, fervent?

Even though she was confused by his sudden overflowing affection, Versailles's face flushed red with embarrassment as she shyly lowered her head.

In her 18 years of life, no one had ever told her that they loved her. No one had ever said those words to her with such deep emotions. Her heart surged with turbulent waves as her head felt light and her vision blurred.

Before she could say anything, Versailles's eyes rolled back in her head and she fainted.

The Werewolf King that was peppering his mate's face with kisses, felt her body go limp and his heart instantly went to his throat.

"Great Healer! Great Healer! Get here quickly! What's wrong with Versailles!?" Frightened out of his wits, Ramose leaped off the ice bed with his mate and ran towards the stunned beast. 

The Great Healer and Olsen were sitting in a corner of the room and sighing in pity and sympathy for the Werewolf King, when suddenly, they saw the serpentine that was presumed dead, awaken as if she was only asleep.

Stunned speechless, they watched King Ramose come alive with a joyful roar that melted their heart. Seeing him return to his senses as easily as if he himself was only acting made them gap in an even greater shock.

'Sigh, like mate, like mate. One wakes from the dead, other returns from the brink of insanity.'

Just as they were sighing at the miraculous pair, the Werewolf King suddenly appeared in front of them with his unconscious mate.

"Oh, yes, yes. Quick, let me take a look!" Great Healer Lev jumped to his feet and anxiously weaved a few spells on her before he approached the Wolf King. After doing a quick diagnosis, he sighed in relief.

"Wolf King, don't worry. The Serpentine Queen is only tired and drained. The parasite had sucked out most of her lifeforce, bringing her on the verge of death. However, due to some unknown reason, she managed to not only wrestle back the lifeforce drained out of her but also managed to expel the parasite on her own." At this, Great Healer Lev's brows scrunched into a frown.

The matter that he just described was unbelievable to even his own ears. How could a beast infected with the Thunder-Kill Spectra have the strength to fight back, snatch the lifeforce drained from them, and even expel the parasite out of their body without any outside assistance?

The more he thought about it, the stranger the matter became. But aside from the serpentine doing on her own, there was no other explanation. After all, the Werewolf King had done nothing but donate blood.

What the Great Healer didn't know was that Ramose and Versailles were mates bond together not only in heart and mind but in soul as well. While donating blood might have just been an ordinary matter in most cases, in theirs, it was equal to donating a portion of their essence to the other.

When Ramose cried blood tears over Versailles's body, the tears in his eyes were a part of his blood essence. One that came straight from his heart. Combined with the blood he was already donating, a mystical force was awakened in Versailles's body.

This was the same force that awakened when she was at the Floating Flame Island of the serpentine, and in the Soul Sundering Pit during the Battle of Wars.

"So, nothing is wrong with Versailles? She will wake up after getting rest, right?" Ramose nervously asked.

"Yes, she will be okay. Only, she will need extra care. Even though she will appear well and healthy, she had almost lost her life. It will take a little bit of time for her to truly regain her original strength. As such, she will require assistance even during washing. Placing a maid or two on watch at all times will be a good measure." 

"Hmm. Thank you, Great Healer. Olsen, please treat the healer to a meal and take care of his settlement for the day." Ramose held his mate close to his chest and turned to leave the room. 

"Of course, Wolf King!"

"Send someone to clean up the place. Have this room turned into an entertainment hall, I will bring Versailles here when she recovers for a breather." He shouted over his shoulder.

Olsen happily watched his King leave with his mate.

'That was close.'

His heart was still pounding from the scare of the Serpentine Queen's presumed death. Thinking of this, he turned to the Great Healer with a dark scowl.

"Great Healer, you dared to declare the Serpentine Queen dead when she was still alive? What were you trying to do, get us killed?"

"Aye, this can't be blamed on me. In the entire Nar realm, which beast have you ever seen get attacked by a Thunder-Kill Spectra and live to tell the tale, huh? Up to this date, aside from your King's mate, there hasn't been any!" He sighed in frustration and agitation.

"I really want to test every blood in her cell to see how she was able to achieve such a feat!"

"Heh...you want to test every blood in her cell? Why don't you just go and die? I promise it will be a lot easier and less painful that way. Because if my King comes to know about the words you just spoke, then even a thousand deaths will not be able to redeem you from his wrath."

With a disdainful scoff, Olsen turned and left the room. 

He still had to find someone to take turn the room into an entertainment hall.

The Great Healer, suddenly alone in the cool room, recalled Olsen's words and shuddered. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead when he thought of the Wolf King's affection for his mate. If he really came to know about his words, then even ten thousand deaths would not be able to redeem him. 

Wiping off the sweat on his forehead, the Great Healer scuffled out of the cool room in a fluster.

Within a few heartbeats, the entire Underworld Palace became aware of the critical condition of the Werewolf King. As the details of the incident spread, many sighs of sympathy and disguised pity rang out.

Of course, while the wolves felt sympathy, many of the female beasts only feigned pity.

"Sigh, the serpentine had only become the Wolf King's mate, and yet, she is already on her death bed. What ill-luck! Truly ill-luck!" A voluptuous succubus exaggeratedly sighed as she shook her head.

"This is what you call fate. The two might have bonded in soul, but the serpentine wasn't strong enough to handle the Werewolf King's dominating aura, hence, leading to her early death. She can only blame her fate for making her encounter with the King short." A dinymph added from the side.

"Now that the Serpentine Queen is dead, I wonder who will become the Werewolf King's mate?" Another female beast with blue skin and blue eyes asked, only she directly declared the Serpentine Queen dead, throwing away any shred of pretense.

In her eyes, the Serpentine Queen, his so-called mate, was nothing but a passing guest.

The females gave each other knowing glances, their eyes sparkling with a radiant glow as they thought of the Werewolf King. Even though they were only slaves and servants of the Werewolf Clan, they were treated amiably in the clan compared to the other beasts in the other five clans.

Moreover, the wolves were warm-blooded, and oftentimes, their mates were not enough to satisfy their lust. As such, they, the slaves and servants got the chance to serve the masters in bed. This was a great honor for any lesser race as she would immediately gain a status above that of the ordinary servants and slave beasts.

And that's when the werewolf they served was not even the Werewolf King!

Right at this time, a joyous roar resounded from the crimson Palace situated in the center of the City.

"What's with the commotion? Did the Serpentine Queen pass away?" The blue-eyed and blue-skinned beast asked in nervous excitement.

"If she had passed away, then the uproar wouldn't be this joyous."

"That's true. Let's go and see."

With that, the group of female slaves dropped their task and gathered at the sidelines of the cheering crowd.

"Great! Our Werewolf King's mate is safe and sound. Now our King can be relieved!"

"Haha! What do I always say? Our King and Queen are too breathtaking together. They make the other beasts in the realm grit their teeth in envy and jealousy. That's why they are schemed against. However, who are our King and Queen? They are the Werewolf King and Serpentine Queen, true soulmates that are made just for each other! How can measly beasts possibly separate them? Even a Thunder-Kill Spectra is useless!"

"Brother, you have snatched the words right out of my mouth! Hahaha..."

As the werewolves roared in joy and delight, their female mates smiled in silence by their sides. Only the female servants and slaves had dark expressions on their faces.

"She didn't die?"

"It looks like she survived. I guess fate doesn't want her to die before experiencing life as the Werewolf King's mate and the Underworld Palace's Queen."

"If not today, then there is always another day. As for now, we should be content with the fact that we now have a chance to serve the Wolf King!"

With twisted, greedy expressions on their faces, the female lesser races withdrew from the crowd and went back to their stations.

Even though the Werewolves were warm-blooded, they never touched other females before getting a mate. This was to show respect for their mates' and make it clear to every female in the Underworld Palace of their status and importance in their life.

Before their mate, no one else should ever come in their lives.

As such, even though the female lesser races desired to warm the bed for the Werewolf King, they had no chance of doing so before his mate entered his life. And now that she did, they were desperate to be the first one to offer herself.

In the Nar realm, many clans, such as the Seeking Evil Clan and the Demon Clan were anxiously waiting to hear the news of the Serpentine Queen's passing. When two ice nights passed and no such news came out, the anxious hearts of the beasts froze.

"She is still not dead yet? Not even after I set loose a Thunder-Kill Spectra on her?" The Demon Queen's face turned pale as she weakly slumped into her seat.

'Why is it so difficult to kill one serpentine!?'
