Replacement Bride for the Alpha of the North - Chapter 190

Chapter 190: THE KNOWLEDGE
Zade was crying when Dawn and Zenith reached the safe place, the baby was hungry and wanted the comfort of his mother and Yara couldn’t console the baby.

“Oh, I am sorry, sweety,” Dawn said, she felt bad for her baby.

Burke, Yara and the other warriors immediately left the room, giving privacy for the luna, as she breastfed Zade, while Zenith stayed with her.

The little one pursed his lips and cried softly when Dawn hugged him. His blue eyes stared at Dawn and somehow, she felt guilty for leaving him behind, though it was only for four hours. That was ridiculous thought, she knew, but she couldn’t help it.

“Spoiled,” Zenith commented, as he caressed his baby’s ruddy cheek when latched to his mother. The baby made a noisy sound and flailed his little arm, as if saying he didn’t want to be touched when he had a bonding time with his mother.

“He is not spoiled, he is loved,” Dawn corrected Zenith and swatted his hand, because he bothered their son, leaving the alpha was speechless.

However he was content enough to witness this moment, something that he didn’t have privilege of in his first lifetime. He was absent in most of their son’s life, especially in the first year before Dawn got their son back.

Dawn talked to her baby and Zade would babble in response, as if they were having a conversation and for Zenith this was adorable to see. He thought, he could watch this conversation for hours and never got tired of it.

His mate looked so happy, despite what just happened in the palace. She looked so serene and the sight of her alone gave some comfort for Zenith. He used this moment to close his eyes and take a nap. He had been sleep deprived for a few days.

After two hours or so, Zenith felt someone touched his face. It was small pat and giggled, even with his eyes closed, he knew who it was.

“Is this how you wake me up?” Zenith opened his eyes and gave a kiss on Zade’s little nose, taking him from Dawn’s arms.

“Well, I think you will be less annoyed when you saw his cuteness,” Dawn giggled. “I feel bad to wake you up, because you didn’t sleep well lately, but we needed to go back to the palace.”

Zenith leaned over and captured her lips. “I will not be annoyed if you woke me up with your cuteness too.”

Dawn blushed she chuckled and urged him to get up.

When they went out, a carriage had been waiting for them that would take them back to the palace, along the way Zade was very active, as he babbled and made baby noise. Zenith was mesmerized by every little thing that he did and Dawn enjoyed the sight.

================================

Vemion cursed and threw everything that he could get his hand on, wailing about the throne that was supposed to his.

He had been there and everything went well until the fucking poison ruined everything.

“Why would you want to get your hand on that dead woman, huh?!” Vemion didn’t see the point of Jared wanting anything to do with Aurel’s dead body.

Jared smiled. He looked so young, probably around the age of Vemion, if he was not a year or two younger, but he looked very dominant and intimidating. He was the mastermind behind everything.

Blake believed Vemion was only a puppet for Jared and he was the real deal here.

“Because of this,” Jared said, tapping his head. “The knowledge.”

Aurel was bind by an oath not to tell anything about Zander and Zenith’s condition, therefore, even in her report, she couldn’t let them know the detail of what happened with the siblings, anything that related to their health and wellbeing were forbidden and she couldn’t breach the oath that she made.

However, Jared found another solution. He knew about Zenith’s ability from his past life and now he could duplicate it, though it was not exactly the same.

“Knowledge? What knowledge?” Vemion asked, he was not happy with the result. He thought by the end of the day, he could conquer the whole kingdom and tomorrow, he could hang those siblings on the palace’s gates.

But, as it turned out, he had to retreat to this pack again.

“To learn more about the sibling.” Jared tilted his head, malice in his eyes. “Do you know that Zander couldn’t shift into his beast?”

Vemion’s eyes flickered when he heard that. “He couldn’t shift into his beast? How? Why?” This knowledge was a shock for him, but then elation crept in his eyes. Excitement.

Meanwhile, Blake had called for Lyra to come and check on Archie, because he got the backlash in their attempt to escape.

He got all the warriors in this pack under his control right now, since their alpha had gone missing and they could cause a riot, since there were so many magic users that kept them in check.

Retaliation was not possible, unless they wanted to die and with that, their families would go down with them as well.

“Do you know that Zenith has been inflicted with poison that cause turmoil with his beast?”

“What do you mean with turmoil?” Vemion forgot about his frustration earlier.

But, he was not the only one, once Zenith’s name was mentioned Blake was on all ear. He wanted that man to suffer and die in the most horrendous way possible, so he could get Dawn for himself.

“There is a time when he would lose control over his beast, or if you aggravated him enough, he could lose it. The damage will be terrifying.”

“How terrifying?”

“He could kill his own pack,” Jared said in a matter of fact, which Zenith already did in his first life.

Vemion picked it up. “So, do you think he could kill his own brother too if we aggravated him enough?”

“You can say so,” Jared chuckled darkly.
