Chapter 243: 242

The queen had gathered the werewolves at her meeting room. A very subtly decorated room with a long table. It had more than ten black chairs with comfortable cushions and each one of them was occupied by the guests. The news that Lun had been caught injured had spread and she had to do something, stall a bit more for Xan. Her son was an idiot and his lover a bigger one. She had specifically told him to keep him away but as it seemed no one wished to listen to her. Now she had to calm down a very angry Loyd requesting that Lun should be executed immediately and that girl that backed him up and lit up the fire even more with every word she said. 

Cecilia rubbed her forehead, the sound of their messy talks getting to her bit by bit. Loyd stood up, smacking his hand on her table, looking at the queen with angry eyes.

"He needs to die, there should be a punishment." 

"And he will, I was the first that said that we will punish him but there is a protocol here. He needs to get well first from the wound the guard caused and then we will officially execute him, we have laws here, I can't just overlook them, the research was poor already if the people found out…" 

"The research was poor?" Alloy interrupted her, making the queen click her tongue in annoyance. "What else could you possibly need to punish someone who hurt one of our own. The right thing would be for your son too to be punished but since his friend took the blame we looked the other way since he is a prince. Are you looking down on us and our kindness?" the woman asked her, making the queen smile. She stood up, tall and dressed in black, her whole night had passed with her working, she was ready to snap and her tense body complained with how she restrained herself. 

"Listen here. This is my house and no one will be smacking my tables or interrupting me when I am speaking, am I clear?" She shouted, her eyes shining crimson. Loyd noticed her anger, alarmed by the aura of her power he sat down, biting his bottom lip. He had been letting Alloy use him and slowly he was probably starting to see it. "You made my palace into a mess, you think you can do whatever you want, talk however you want. There are laws here! I don't know how you go about in those little packs of yours but here you will be doing what I say, guests or not and if I say you need to wait you will wait, if I say you shut up, you will shut up." the queen ordered them and Alloy tried to speak again but Derek grabbed her, pulling her done and staring at her with a threatening stare. 

"That's enough for today." he whispered to her when the door of the meeting room burst open, revealing the two Avger brothers. Xan stepped in first, his face pale, his eyes tired as he looked at his mother. 

"He is in the hospital room." the woman told him and sighed as he watched Xan run off without saying a word. He didn't care what the guest they would think, he didn't care about anyone in this room. Running off as if his life was depending on it while Kai the one who should be rushing off stood at the door, a smirk on his face as he looked at them

"It's very nice to see you all gathered here. I won't have to run again."

"What is it Kai?" The queen asked him. 

"I just wanted to talk to our guests a little bit. Especially the ones from Bloodfangs. Your little plan was very cute, considering you must have planned it on the spot but do tell me. How exactly did you threaten one of the butlers to place the knife in my room?" The young prince asked, finding his lover between them and winking at him victoriously. Philip smiled, seeing him shine. 

"What are you talking about?" Derek exclaimed. 

"We found the old man. The one you threatened to plant the knife in my room while the truth is you are the ones that did everything, you killed one of your own and tried to blame it on me to mess with the treaties, you're working with someone. So please do explain yourselves." 

"Kai, these accusations…" The queen mumbled, looking at her son in shock. 

"Is it true?" Loyd asked, bug eyes as he watched Alloy and her beta show pure anger.

"Of course it is not! We would never do that! I demand this man to be brought here, to tell everything himself in front of the queen. Then we will see who is lying and who is not." Alloy demanded. 

"Let's go then. The two Alpha's and the queen." Kai told them. Loyd stood up immediately and followed the young prince while Alloy stood on the back, her ears red from being annoyed. The queen didn't say anything, she looked at the back of her son, worried that something would go wrong, she didn't have a good feeling about this. 

The youngest prince led them to the practice room where the butler had been left. All of the other servants had run off scared the moment the two brothers disappeared while Soran and Ash had gone to see Lun too together with John. They had left the man tied in a corner of the room, the door closed. No one knew about this room, at least no one who wasn't a member of the royal court. 

Kai grabbed his keys from his pocket, opening the wooden door to let the rest of them in. He stepped in first, his blue eyes scanning the room for the man.

"Impossible." he mumbled as he found the man dead on the floor, white foam coming from his mouth. "There is no way!" he shouted. He was dead, their only source, the one who was supposed to save Lun was dead. 

"Wow…"Alloy said ironically. "I am sure a corpse could say so much." she told Kai and smirked at him. 

"Kai this…"

"Mother, she has people in the palace. You know I am telling the truth, why would someone I needed to save Lun suddenly die. This does not make sense. She is working with someone." Kai warned her and the queen looked at the both of them, a cold stare caressing their figures. 

"Both of you, come with me to the meeting room. No one is coming out of there until Lun is healed."

"What?" Loyd complained. 

"If there is really someone in this palace that is messing with my people." Cecilia said, her eyes looking straight at Alloy. "I have to make sure I crush them properly. Whoever does not follow my orders I will consider them as suspects." 

"Kai, take this man to the doctor, learn what he died from and come to me."

"Okay." Kai agreed. 

"From now on, I am responsible for this case." the queen announced.. "And I am not as nice as my sons."
