Beast King's Crippled Mate-Chapter 235: A Husband’s Excitement (II)

Swan went quiet for a while.

Of course, she knew what the urgent thing Long Xiurong wanted to tell her. Rock must’ve come to the castle last night and had written a response to her letter before.

But the situation right now was not right. Gale was still overly excited and wouldn’t leave her alone. She doubted she’d have time to talk with Long Xiurong, read Rock’s letter, and write a reply.

Thus, she had no choice but to refuse her, "Tell Lady Long that I will be fully occupied until next week. I’ll be the one to invite her in case I want to have a tea time with her."

"Understood, Your Majesty," Long Xiurong’s attendant nodded and excused herself.

Swan was actually quite sad that she couldn’t read Rock’s reply, as she was curious if he and Long Xiurong were actually fated mates since Rock was the only one with the answer.

She still felt guilty for the misfortune in Rock’s life. If it wasn’t for her presence, Rock wouldn’t have been poisoned by Jade, and he would still be the beta in this castle, living a good life and dedicating everything to Gale.

So, if love could ease his pain, Swan wanted to support Rock and Lady Long’s love.

’Just a week from now on, and I can finally help them in their rendezvous. Maybe I can help Long Xiurong to leave the castle too, so she could go with Rock somewhere far from Gale.’

Meanwhile, all the scouts and Blaze Silverfang had been gathered in the castle’s ground at dawn as their Beast King told them there was an urgent situation that needed to be handled.

Yet, when they came to the castle grounds, the Beast King was all smiles, which was eerily frightening for his subjects.

They always saw His Majesty as a mighty, respectable, yet also a terrifying entity they had to obey. He didn’t smile unless he was talking with Queen Swan.

But Queen Swan was nowhere to be seen right now.

Blaze kneeled in front of His Majesty, followed by the scouts, "Your Majesty, I’ve gathered all the scouts in the castle. Since you said there is an urgent situation that needs to be solved, we are ready to be dispatched anytime!"

"Yes, I want all of you, including you, Blaze Silverfang, to locate Matoa, the miracle doctor from YakGroove Pack. He is usually traveling away from his pack’s den most of the time, so I want you to find him as soon as possible, and bring him here," Gale ordered. "This is urgent." freewёbnoνel.com

Blaze couldn’t help but ask, "May I know what the urgent situation is, Your Majesty? If it is an illness, then the castle’s doctor should suffice for now, right?"

"No, there is a possibility that my wife might be pregnant. Her situation is unique since she is a human carrying the cub of a beastman. The only one who can give an accurate diagnosis of her condition is Matoa," Gale replied. "The livelihood of your Queen and future little lord or lady is in your hands. I want you to give all you have to find that old doctor."

Blaze and the rest of the scouts felt like they were given a huge energy boost. They loved their Queen, and to think that Queen Swan would give birth to a cub whom they would call little lord or lady, Blaze and the rest knew it was a task that needed to be done soon.

"We are ready, Your Majesty!" Blaze said. "We will leave and start searching for Matoa, the miracle doctor now!"

"Good, I expect good news from all of you."

Gale watched as Blaze and the rest of the scouts left the castle ground. He could see how motivated they were, solely because they wanted the best for their Queen.

Gale grinned proudly and muttered, "See this, wife? You are well-loved by everyone in this castle."

Gale leaped into the castle wall and stared at the beautiful view of the city from the tower. He sighed in awe, ’Only a year ago, this city was just a bunch of huts, and the castle is not well fortified. Everyone relies on me for protection, but it seems that Swan wants to leave this kingdom for our cubs in the future. She raised the city wall for better protection against invaders, and improved the system to ensure the beastmen can do more than hunt or gather food.’

The more he gazed at the city, the more he fell in love with Swan, who showed genuine care for his subjects.

’What should I do, Swan? You are a miracle in my life, and I’m afraid you’re just an illusion. What should I do if you suddenly leave me? Will I turn insane?’

Unfortunately, Gale already knew the answer to that question.

If Swan suddenly died, then he would kill himself.

If Swan suddenly left him without a word to him, then he would search for her even at the corner of the earth.

If Swan had another man in her heart, then he would kill that man.

He already knew all the answers for all possible scenarios.

’I’ve never been so in love in my life, Sweetheart. So you can’t leave me. Ever.’

Gale took his time to collect himself before returning to the castle as he wanted to spend more time with his wife, just like a male wolf guarding his family in their den after a long day hunting for food.

"Her Majesty refused the tea time?" Long Xiurong frowned after her new attendant relayed the message from Queen Swan. "Is there any urgent situation that beats this? Did she say something?"

"She said that she will be fully occupied until next week. She’ll be the one to invite once she has more free time, Milady," the attendant reported.

"That’s so strange..." Long Xiurong knew that Queen Swan was very excited about Rock’s whereabouts, so she should’ve been the one eager to read the letter from Rock.

’I guess I’ll have to keep the letter for now and wait until next week,’ Long Xiurong thought as she carelessly glanced at the drawer where she put the letter in.
