Chapter 158: Claimed 109

Chapter 109

The avalanche happened late at night and all the seven warriors stayed in the lake house because it was the safest place for them and Jasmine obviously let them inside, more so, this was no longer a vacation that she had imagined.

She didn’t expect to have a lycan in her house, but it was not that bad. At the very least, with this all the people would be

safe.

Jasmine watched how Kellan groaned and threw a dagger look at Ethan when he helped him to change the bandage, the man was very grumpy. Probably most of the lycan like that, because her father, if he was not with his little family, he would be grumpy too with other people, even when he was with his royal beta and royal ga**a.

“Do you think the three of them will be alright?” Jasmine asked, she turned her head and then watched the dark sky out there. Because of the avalanche, they needed to find another way to the town, because they needed to buy groceries, for now the groceries would be enough to last for a week, but after that, they didn’t have other choice, but to go to the town.

“I don’t think we will need a healer again at this point, princess. He looks fine to me.”

“I don’t need a healer.”

It was rare to see the two of them agreed on something and this made Jasmine smiled. “The two of you finally get along well.”

Kellan rolled his eyes sarcastically. “Seriously.” He clicked his tongue. “The only thing that I like about him is his food. That’s it.” Compared to Jasmine’s, obviously, it was not even a comparison.

Hearing that, it was Jasmine, who was glaring at him this time. She scrunched her nose with annoyance.

Meanwhile, Ethan didn’t say anything and after he was done, he patted his wound rather harshly and this made Kellan snarled. “What’s wrong with you?!”

“Ethan, you can leave. I have something to talk with him,” Jasmine said, dismissing Ethan from the room.

At first, Ethan looked a little bit hesitated, but then he nodded and left the two of them. Actually, there was something that he had to take care of.

Three of his warriors had not yet returned, in that case, he needed to find out what happened with them, but he couldn’t send another warrior to look for them, especially after the avalanche. It would be too risky and it would weaken the protection around the princess, more so when they had not yet learned about what and why Kellan was being attacked, he had not yet told them about his original and what happened.

Ethan was sure that princess Jasmine right now was asking those questions. Therefore, he left her with him.

And he was

right. Jasmine didn’t beat around the bush when she asked him the question.

“So, you are lycan. I assumed, you came from the royal blood. Is it Aurones Kingdom?” she guessed.

Kellan tilted his head. “Yes. I am and apparently, I am the future king of Aurones Kingdom since my father was killed by my brother. Really, nice right?”

He said all of those things with light tone, as if it was not something shocking.

“Wh- what? But, I didn’t know about that… that should be a big news, right?” But then, Jasmine remembered that she had been on the road for two weeks and rarely stayed in a city or town, because she chose to be in rural area. People there, didn’t care about politic, especially the one that happened in different kingdom.

“Obviously. I don’t even see that coming.” Kellan ran his fingers through his hair and he looked more upset than sad.

Chapter 109

“I am sorry for what happened.”

“Don’t be,” Kéllan said, he waved his hand nonchalantly. “My father is a sh**y king. My brother is no different. He usurped the throne because he is not happy because I am the crown prince.” He shrugged his shoulders. “I became the crown prince because I was born from the queen, while he was born from mistress, is not like he didn’t know about that since the beginning.”

Jasmine tried to remember the king from Aurones Kingdom, she didn’t have any recollection from that northern kingdom.

“Apparently, my brother has been gathering many supporters and one of them is alpha Lorent from Redwood pack.” Kellan winked at him and then chuckled. “I heard he was your destined mate. What a pity I couldn’t attend your birthday, princess.”

“You know about that?”

“You can say that you are famous among the nobles. You are the latest hot gossips for those women.”

Jasmine groaned. She knew it would happen like that and she hated it when someone preyed into her life. Well, they couldn’t be blamed, since that was quite a scene actually.

“Well, I didn’t come for your birthday, but I gave you gifts. Have you opened them?”

Jasmine grinned. “No. I didn’t touch any of my gifts.” After the whole ordeal, she only wanted to leave the palace and didn’t have any desire to open any gifts.

“It’s fine. I am here to be your gift then.” Kellan opened his arms, gesturing that he would give himself to her as a gift. Hearing that, Jasmine made a face. “No, thanks. I don’t think I want it. I don’t need it.”

Both of them then laughed, but suddenly, Ethan entered the room. He didn’t even knock on the door and from his expression, they knew there was something not right.

“There are a few beasts that we spotted in the woods,” he informed them.

“That must be the warriors that have been chasing me down,” Kellan said, his happy go lucky expression suddenly changed, as he got off the bed. “Shut down all the light and locked the door. I am sure there are not many of them.”

Ethan didn’t like to be told what to do, but he did it anyway.
