Replacement Bride for the Alpha of the North - Chapter 126

Chapter 126: PERSONAL WARRIORS FOR THE LUNA
Dawn wasn’t doing this purely out of the goodness of her heart. It was because she wanted to get close to these warriors, just in case she needed them in the future, having them around the corner would be useful.

Moreover, if they knew her better and saw her in a good light, it would lower the possibility they would take any bad rumor about her easily.

Called her crazy, but her memories brought back her traumas as well. She really needed to be careful with her life this time, especially when she was pregnant.

“The smell,” Dawn said. It was not that hard to figure out the reason why the northern warriors had been having a hard time to sleep.

It was because of the smell that came from the area where they burned all of the traitor dead bodies after they hanged them.

They killed them at day and burned them at night, that was why they were having a hard time to sleep.

“But, we didn’t smell anything.” One of the warriors was surprised to see the luna was here to check on them. They didn’t know if their luna knew a thing or two about medicine, especially when she wrote a prescription for them and handed it over to Darius to take care of it.

Dawn wouldn’t make it herself, since she didn’t want to tire herself out. After all, this was not an urgent matter.

“Darius confirmed it, there is a magic that was put around this area to prevent the smell. You can’t smell it, but you are still able to be implicated by it. That’s why you have been having a hard time to fall asleep.”

“Oh, I think you are right, luna.”

“My suggestion is to change the accommodation for the meantime until all the procedures with the punishment was done.”

Dawn really gave them a solution and when she left, all the warriors talked about how their luna knew a few things that not common for shifter to know.

“Don’t you think it’s so awesome to have such luna?”

“Yes, can’t you see the way she talked? She is very confidence and elaborate everything very clearly.”

“Don’t forget she is the alpha’s daughter, of course, she carried such authority.”

“The way she explained thing is very precise and understandable, compared to the alpha…”

All of them sighed when they remembered their alpha didn’t even give them an explanation for all the assignment that was given to them. He only told them what to do and that was it.

Later that night, after Zenith played his role as ‘the king’, he played the role as a loving mate, as he helped Dawn to comb her hair, while she talked about her day.

“Do you want to take the warrior to your side?” Zenith teased her.

“No,” Dawn replied, but it was too fast to make it believable. “Look, I am the luna, it’s only right for me to know my people, right?” She justified herself.

“I don’t mind it, Dawn. I want you to be able to protect yourself, even without me.”

“What do you mean without you?” Dawn turned her body and faced Zenith. She was not happy with the way he phrased it.

“Let’s agree to this.” Zenith knelt down in front of Dawn, she was sitting on her chair. “No matter how much I tried to protect you, by the end of the day, I couldn’t be by your side all the time. I would love to be able to put you in my pocket if I have to go, but it’s not possible. That’s why, I want you to be able to protect yourself, at least, until I am able to reach you.”

It would be so foolish of Zenith if he thought he could protect Dawn all the time. There would be moment when he was away and his enemies would target her, just like what happened on her way to the capital city recently.

He wouldn’t be able to do so and by holding her back and made her relied on him so much, it would put her life in danger, especially with the current situation.

“That’s why you insisted to train me how to fight?” Dawn realized his intention.

“Yes, but I think the training must be postponed for a while.” Zenith kissed her stomach, which made Dawn gasped, because it was ticklish. “I should arrange a few warriors to be your personal warriors. You already knew some of the warriors, you can choose four of them if you wanted. I will order Darius to arrange everything.”

“Four? Don’t you think one is enough? You only have one too.”

Thean was currently on a mission, since Zenith didn’t really need a personal warrior, thus Thean would be often on a mission than to be by his side.

“I am planning to have a dozen of them, but Darius was against it and he thought you wouldn’t like it.”

Dawn grimaced. “Four is a good number.”

With that, Dawn would have four personal warriors, who would follow her anywhere. She was happy with this arrangement.

The only thing that she needed to do right now was to choose, who these four warriors would be. She would prefer someone that would get along with her well.

But, in the middle of the night when Dawn fell into a deep sleep, she was woken up when someone knocked on their door urgently.

It was Pyro, he informed them that Zander’s condition suddenly was getting worse and they needed Dawn to see him.

Dawn immediately went to the king’s bedroom, inside, Aurel and Celine were there, so did Lance and Darius.

“Why did you bring her here?!” Aurel was furious, she got to Dawn’s face. “I told you not to get anyone involved in this!”

However, before Zenith or Pyro could get her away from Dawn, the latter had raised her hand and slapped Aurel’s face harshly. She fell to the floor.
