A Mate For The Last Lycan-Chapter 233: SUBDUED HIS LOYALIST

"You can’t be serious, Khaos," Ezra growled when he saw Giana. She was unconscious now, sleeping on a makeshift bed inside one of the carriages that would be used to carry their stuff during their journey to Three Deadly Ways. "We don’t need her."

Tonight was the last night they would be in Wolfdale Kingdom and currently, Khaos was letting Ezra knew what he was going to do. They were in the stable, where their things were loaded into the carriages, so they were ready to leave early in the morning.

"Do you want to say you don’t need the beauty blood?" Khaos knew what Ezra’s argument would be. "She is the only chance for the completion of the beauty blood."

"What? No. How many curses that left until it’s completed?" Ezra disagreed. He really hated the fact that Elijah left with one more curse before Khaos managed to find him. If only Khaos was a little bit late, everything wouldn’t be this complicated.

More so, Ezra didn’t think it was necessary for Khaos to mark Zuri and form a mate bond between them.

"Thirty one curses."

"That will take years to be completed."

"Then years it is."

Ezra shook his head again, he looked around him, but the stable was empty, aside from the warriors that guarded this area tightly.

"You must be kidding me. Zuri only needs one more curse!" Ezra shook his head again, as if there was this annoying fly that Khaos couldn’t see. He then lowered his voice. "She only needs one more curse and we don’t need to wait for years. Think about it again."

They were going to Great Palace now, the last place where the curse should be put. One more curse and that was enough. Khaos could take revenge for his predecessor, he would avenge their vengeance for their loved one, who died during the massacre to protect his family.

This was not only Khaos’s revenge, but this was their revenge.

One more curse and they would be done with it.

However, Khaos could see what Ezra was thinking right now. He knew this man. He was the first person, who taught him how to scheme people around him, but Khaos could do it better now and he read people better, especially those, who close to him.

"Don’t even think about that, Ezra." Khaos took a step closer. "I tolerate you because you are Caiden’s father. You have been showing your unfaltering loyalty, but you need to know your place too. You are still my subject and Zuri is my mate. I marked her and mated her. Whatever harmful idea you have for her, I will see it as a treason."

Ezra was taken aback when he heard the word ’treason’. His jaw clenched. There was no way he was going to betray Khaos.

"I would never do that! Whatever I did, is for your benefit!"

"The end doesn’t justify the means."

"But..."

Khaos looked up to him, he saw him as a father figure and Ezra knew about that too, but he took things too far and now he forgot, who he was.

"She is my mate. My queen. your queen. Harm her and you harm me, and that’s treason."

It was crystal clear and this was Ezra’s last chance. He had been forgiven for the shit that he pulled on Zuri before, but this would be his last chance.

The night grew quiet, as the lycan subdued his loyalist into submission, but it was only temporary. Heart was fickle and Ezra had his own vision for the revival of the old dynasty and this could cause trouble in the long run if he didn’t manage to suppress such impulse.

Khaos walked back to his bedroom when he saw Zuri was the end at the corridor, she had been mindlinked him to know where he was, but Khaos closed his mind, because he put his focus on his conversation with Ezra and now, his mate looked sullen.

Zuri rushed toward him. She didn’t look happy. The moonlight fell on her face, which made her looked pale and the shadow behind her looked like a long black cloak that followed her every move.

"Where have you been?" The look that she gave him was enough to make Khaos chuckled.

"Why? Did you miss me?"

Narrowing her eyes, Zuri started sniffing him, which made Khaos laughed even harder and kissed her lips, but she stomped his feet and freed herself.

"Whose scent is this?" Zuri scrunched her nose. She didn’t recognize the smell. "You met with someone?"

"I met a lot of people."

"But, you have stayed longer with this person for his scent to be on you."

"You are getting better at observing." Khaos quite enjoyed her jealous side, but he knew it would do harm than good to him or to her to let her anxiety ran rampant in her mind. "It’s Ezra."

Zuri pursed her lips and sniffed him again. She didn’t recognize his scent at first, because why would she memorize his scent? But, when Khaos mentioned his name, she remembered. It was indeed Ezra’s.

"What? Is he still trying to plot to kill me?" Zuri frowned.

A few patrol warriors walked past them and bowed down to show their respect, as Khaos and Zuri walked in the hallway.

Khaos intertwined their hands together. Her fingers were still bony, her cheekbones were still protruding, but he knew she had gained weight, but still it was not close to call it healthy.

The wound from their last sex still visible on her neck, though you wouldn’t be able to see it, if you didn’t stand so close to her. Her healing ability was suck.

"He will behave."

"Can I kill him if he tried to harm me?"

Khaos looked at her for a moment and his face broke into a sweet smile. "Sure, but do it secretly."

"I know."

Khaos raised his brows. "You were not being discreet when you killed the guard."

"He was a rebel."
