Replacement Bride for the Alpha of the North - Chapter 208

Chapter 208: LOST FOR WORDS
When Zaya, Pyro and the twenty warriors stepped in the camp, they were thrown to a vicious battle between the knights against the magic users from the Holy Kingdom.

They didn’t even have time to catch a breath when they were forced to fight for their lives.

The magic users from the Holy Kingdom outnumbered them greatly, but there was one shocking truth that Zaya learned from this battle it was the fact that the knights from Marca El were immune from an offensive magic, which was a great advantage for them, where they could kill them easily, if they didn’t put up their shield and used another method to defeat them.

However, the magic users without their magic were nothing compared to a battle hardened warrior from Marca El.

This battle took longer because there were too many of them and the number of the knights with king Rowan was not a match for them.

“What are you doing here, princess?”

Rowan saw the portal and didn’t care much about it, as he saw Pyro walked into the battle with a few warriors, but when he caught his sight on that auburn girl, he felt the rage consumed him.

What the hell that princess was doing here? Didn’t her brothers were very protective of her? How could they send her over to this camp again?

“Why don’t you wait in one of the tents and take a nap, while I finished this battle?” Rowan was still on his war horse, he looked so tall, big and intimidating, his dark eyes bore into hers and this made Zaya’s heart skipped a beat.

This must be because she was relief. They had expected the worse from this king when they heard that his ships came at the same time with the ships from the Holy Kingdom.

They had to take all the precaution that he would turn their back against them and sided with the Holy Kingdom, but to see him fighting against them, was such a relief.

“What is it? You can’t speak because you are very grateful to me for defending your kind?” King Rowan killed two magic users in one swing of his huge swords.

The dagger at Zaya’s waist hummed, because his sword and her dagger came from the same magic stones.

“Should I be grateful for that? I thought it is a common sense because you are a guest in our continent,” Zaya replied, she created a shield around them, so they could have this little chat amidst the chaos, so they couldn’t bother them for a while.

She didn’t like someone disturbed her conversation.

“We have been a great host, right?”

King Rowan looked amused. “I can’t say the same thing for your other two brothers, but I am happy to have you to host me, maybe you can be more accepting after this.”

“Do you think this action can charm me?”

“Is it a failure?”

Zaya shrugged her shoulders. “Not really.”

King Rowan laughed, he extended his hand and then pulled her up to sit behind him on his big horse. “Do you want to slay magic user with me, princess?”

“It will be my pleasure.”

Thankfully, after that, other ships docked at the harbor and this time, they were the ships from Marca El.

There were three, while the other two had sunk.

Apparently, the only reason why the two ships of the Holy Kingdom managed to dock in the harbor first was because the other three used to block the ships from Marca El and they had a battle, which made the other ships from Marca El to be late.

After that, everything was very obvious, who would be the winner of this battle. An hour later, Sebastian also arrived with the back up, as he stayed there for a while before they marched toward the Moonlight pack’s pack house.

Zaya’s assignment was to talk to king Rowan, to prevent the king from taking the enemy’s side, but apparently, there was no need for that, therefore, she wanted to go with Pyro too.

“You can’t go with me, princess,” Pyro said. “It will be too dangerous for you.” Zander wouldn’t allow Zaya to enter the heart of the battlefield. The fight in the camp was something that they didn’t predict.

“No. I want to go, I need to go.” Zaya was insisted.

“Princess Zaya, I can’t protect you. It will be very dangerous.” Pyro knew that he would lose this argumentation, but he had to try to convince her to stay.

But, thing didn’t go well with him when king Rowan decided to chime in.

“I will go with her,” king Rowan said. He sheathed his sword and looked at the royal beta, challenged him to say otherwise, which turned Pyro speechless.

“See? Now, problem solved.” Zaya was more than happy to accept the help and shut Pyro up.

The royal beta could only shake his head and then walked away. “If the king or alpha Zenith asked me about this, I will tell them the truth.”

“Okay.” Zaya knew that she could manage her two brothers, but she looked at king Rowan suspiciously. “Are you trying to impress me.”

“Did it work?”

“I am touched, a little bit.”

Zaya walked away from him toward his horse. The horse was higher than the horse that she used to ride, thus she had a hard time to climb it.

“Need help?”

“No, thanks, I will ask Pyro to… ah!” Zaya squealed when king Rowan suddenly lifted her body up and let her sat down comfortably on the horse back.

“You should choose wisely when you ask for help, princess. The royal beta is currently busy.”

Zaya looked at him innocently. “My life choices are questionable lately.”

King Rowan grinned. “You are so light. Like a feather.”

Zaya blushed, but her words sounded nonchalantly. “I will put more weight, so you can’t lift me up again easily.”

“Don’t worry, I will help to fattening you up.”

There, Zaya lost for word.
