Chapter 113
Kass and Morgana wereâ¦mates?
Janet was shocked.
She glanced at Kass and found a horror-struck expression on his face as well.
Their destined mates were assigned by the Moon Goddess and there was absolutely no logic and reasoning behind the system.
Anyone could be possible. The match could be totally random, like Harper and
Lance.
Yes still, it must be very hard for Kass to accept that his destined mate was the Rogue Kingâs Cabinet Minister, an enemy.
Morgana soon recovered from her shock and a smile appeared on her face.
She walked up to Kass.
Kass immediately took a quick step back.
âI know who you are.â
Morgana surveyed Kass up and down with a searching look.
âYou joined the rogue test with Janet and Alpha Daran. And surrendered yourself to the Rogue King, didnât you?â she smiled.
âH-How did you know?â Kass asked in a stiff voice.
âI was sitting on the stands, watching you guys,â Morgana shrugged. âBut I didnât know that you were my mate at the time.â
Janet realized something at once-Morgana was the woman who spoke on the Rogue Kingâs behalf in the arena!
No wonder she found Morganaâs voice somewhat familiar.
Morgana was probably the fake Rogue King that Daran encountered outside of the Crimson Fortress. She had been playing the Kingâs role while Lance hid out in the city.
Who would have thought that she was Kassâs destined mate?
âY-You stay away from me!â Kass said in a panic voice, âI donât like you. W-We are not suitable for each otherâ¦â
âOh? And why is that?â
Morgana didnât listen to Kassâs words asking her to back away. Instead, she moved even closer to him.
Then she caught his wrist.
âNow that you have surrendered to the Rogue King, we are on the same side. You are new to this city, and I am the Cabinet Minister, I can make your life very comfortable here. Give me one reason why we are not perfect for each other?â Morgana chuckled.
Kassâs face was flaming red.
âI-I am in love with another woman.â he murmured.
Kassâs face was flaming red.
âI-1 am in love with another woman,â he murmured.
Morgana laughed, âOK that is cute. But you heard your wolf calling out to me, didnât you? You want me, physically and emotionally. Can you really fight against that animal instinct?â
She raised a hand and rubbed his carlobe in a very seductive manner.
His breathing became rough almost instantly.
âAnd the woman you are in love withâ
Morgana said as she cast a casual glance at Janet.
it wouldnât happen to be someone that I know, would it?â
Seeing that Morgana was looking at her, Janet replied at once, âI donât know whom Kass was talking about.â
Kass tilted his head and put a little distance between him and Morgana.
He took in a deep breath and said with a struggling expression, âIâ¦I need to think this overâ¦everything is too suddenâ¦â
Morgana shrugged, âMost men would plunge on their mates and have sex together as soon as possible. But if prudence is your style, then sure, I respect that.â
Her finger brushed across his collarbone, making his body shiver.
âCome and find me later,â she smiled.
Kass gulped.
He didnât even dare to look at her.
âGuards!â Morgana blew a whistle, âLet them come through!â
Soldiers obeyed at once.
They stepped aside and made way for Kass and Janet to pass. Yet right at this moment, Harper cried out furiously, âWAIT!â
She rushed forward and came to Morgana, glowering at her.
âI ordered to have them rescued!â Harper snapped, âWho the hell are you?! You canât overpower me. I am the Queen!â
Morgana crossed her arms in front of her chest, looking down at Harper sarcastically.
âOh yeah? Then give your order and let us find out whom they listen to,â she taunted.
Harper looked around at the guards and those girls.
âYou heard me!â Harper cried, âTake them down!â
But nobody acted.
They all looked back at Harper silently in a passive-aggressive manner.
Harper was mortified. She stomped her feet in fume and cried, âWhy are you all
listening to her?! I AM THE. 11
âQueen?â
One girl rolled her eyes and grunted, âThe King never recognized you so can you stop calling yourself that? Morgana has been our minister for years. Of course, we listen to her.
âY-You bunch of traitors!â
Harper looked as though she was about to pass out in anger. Then she jerked around to glare si Morgana and Kass and glowered, âAnd you two⦠Well, I wish you happily ever atter! A bitch and a prick, what a perfect match!â
Morgana leaped forward abruptly.
She caught Harper by the hair and dragged her to the canal forcefully.
Threatening Harperâs face to the waterâs surface, Morgana snapped, âApologies. Now!â
âNO! YOU BITC-â
Harper didnât get to finish her curse.
Because Morgana just dipped her head into the water!
A gale of laughter broke out from the crowd.
Morgana pressed her head down for a few seconds and then pulled her back up. âHow about now?â Morgana asked idly.
âN-Noâ¦pleaseâ¦donât do it againâ¦â
âAll you need to do is to apologize,â Morgana reminded her.
Harper shut her eyes with a humiliated look and cried out in despair, âSorry-Sorry!
I shouldnât have said that! I am sorry!â
Morgana dragged her back and tossed her to the ground, âNow we are talking. I would blame your parents for your lack of education. But we all know what your parents are like. No wonder you turn out like this.â
Harper coughed holding her chest.
She was now drenched wet, with her messy hair clung to her skin and her slave tattoo visible on her forehead.
She pulled herself up from the ground hastily and hurried off, escaping the scene like a rat caught in the bright daylight.
Everyone stared at her back with disdain.
Janet turned to look at Morgana and said, âThank you,â
Morgana let out a snort, âDonât thank me. I didnât do it for you. We are still
enemies.â
âBut we can at least side with each other when it comes to Harper,â Janet said with a
smile.
âWellâ¦I guess you are right.â
Morgana pulled out a pen and grabbed Kassâs hand.
On his palm, she wrote down her phone number.
But we can at least side with each other when it comes to Harper,â Janet said with a smile.
âWellâ¦I guess you are rightâ
Morgana pulled out a pen and grabbed Kassâs hand.
On his palm, she wrote down her phone number.
âCall me.â
She winked at him seductively. He blushed, which made her smile grow even wider.
After Morgana left, Kass immediately turned to Janet and said with an urgent tone, âPlease, let me explain-
Janet patted his shoulder, âShe is your mate, and she likes you. What is there to explain? Plusâ¦â
She looked around. Some of the soldiers hadnât walked away yet.
âLet us not talk here.â
She lowered her voice and whispered to him, âYou will have a night off tonight, correct? Find me in my room. We will talk then.â
