A Mate For The Last Lycan-Chapter 252: THE COMPLETION OF THE BEAUTY BLOOD
Chapter 252: THE COMPLETION OF THE BEAUTY BLOOD
Without the drug from him, Zuri wouldn’t last for long, not even for the completion of the beauty blood and just like what he said to her earlier.
If he had to go down, she would go down with him too. It was the same like how Zuri felt about him.
And now Lauren had to think of another way to get out of this situation. When the magic users came to attack him, he dodged their attack with agility. After all, he used to be the warrior in his Kingdom. They should know about that.
It was not easy to get away from ten magic users, but Lorent had prepared this confrontation.
There was only one way out and Lorent fought his way out ferociously, the magic users, weirdly didn’t use offensive attack to stop him, they simply defended themselves from his attack and after a few struggling, he finally managed to get away from them.
Lorent ran away knowing if he did it, he was going to kill Zuri, but what else he could do? He had no other option in this case. They were on their own right now.
On the other hand, the magic users watched, as Lorent ran away from them.
"Should we chase after him?" One of the magic users questioned. "To make it more believable."
The taller one thought about it for a while, but then he shook his head. "There is no need. Let’s start this before the lycan can find us here."
They actually had expected this and Declan had come up with the solution for it.
They didn’t need Lorent to give Zuri the drug, since they were the magic user, they could Simply put her into coma, put her body to stop functioning as if the time was still for her.
Which meant, she would be in this condition for a long time and her poison wouldn’t act up no matter what they do.
For them, it was only an act when they tried to stop Lorent from running away. They didn’t actually need him. It was his stupidity to think that Declan would help him after everything that he had done to stop the ritual and angered Terrence family in the process.
The ten magic user there, originally came from Terrence family. Of course, they saw Declan as the family head, as the true leader of them.
In this case, they were going to listen to Declan more.
"We need to start now."
"Right."
They were ready in their position, as they circled around Zuri.
"Hm. Let’s start it." The taller magic user was initially Dezgar’s right hand, but while Dezgar went to Wolfdale Kingdom with Khaos and the other warriors, he stayed in Celeste Kingdom with Bryden.
Elijah actually did a great job to keep his position as the leader of the magic users, since he knew there were so many magic users, who had been eyeing his position, but he always managed to keep them in check.
Unfortunately, because of his thoughtless decision, he offended Khaos and ended up dead, which meant, those magic users, who had been trying to get his position, would immediately come to the surface and their greed had no bound.
Another fact that Khaos didn’t know was; the beta had long been compromised.
It happened when Bryden was sent to Wolfdale Kingdom to talk about the offer to King Amidas, which was Zuri’s idea to send him there after his betrayal for not heeding Khaos’s order soon related to the matter with Killian.
That was the time when Terrance family came to Bryden and compromised him, telling him that they knew about Khaos personal vendetta and revealed their true identity as the cult who had been helping Khaos all of this time.
That was why it was rather easy to get Bryden on their side, especially after he learned that Ezra was already agreed with this, both of them had been very worried about the relationship between Khaos and Zuri.
They were right when they thought Khaos wouldn’t give Zuri up for the beauty blood and when Khaos suggested for Giana to fill the role, Ezra knew that woman wouldn’t cut it. She wouldn’t survive until the completion, more so, Zuri only needed one more curse, while Giana still left out with a lot.
That was why when they learned about Declan’s plan, they only needed a little time to think the consequences.
’This was not a betrayal.’
’This was their way to help Khaos to achieve his goal.’
’Without this push, Khaos wouldn’t want to complete the beauty blood. That was why an extra measure like this was needed to keep him on the right track.
’It must be hard on Khaos, but then it was necessary for them to do it.’
’This was not a betrayal. This was the sacrifice that was needed.’
Those were the words they said to justify what they were doing right now, once the beauty blood was completed and Khaos’s mind was not clouded by his attachment, he could see how right they were.
And with that, the the ritual started.
They put Zuri into comatose state, slowed down her blood pressure and let the time trickled away from her, she was stilled in her current moment. Her time had been stopped.
But for Zuri, it was like she was being trapped and tortured inside her own head, inside her own body. But there was nothing she could do.
She couldn’t even move her finger when the magic users started to chant the ritual.
She needed her drug, yet Lauren had run away.
That bastard had left her alone here. Lorent should have chosen her and sent her back to Khaos if he really wanted to save his ass and his mate.
That man had made a horrible decision with the cost of Zuri’s life.
But now her opinion didn’t matter because she was waiting for the pain to come and sure enough, she felt this familiar pain.
