Eiten was dumbstruck when he heard what Claire just told him. She had told him everything about Rania. She apologized because she didn’t come forward earlier.
“You should have this conversation months ago,” Eiten said frustratedly, but he reined back his anger, because Claire looked terrified of him. “We can prevent a lot of things.”
Rania only agreed to poison Maximus because the king had been treating her so bad, since he learned the false information about Rania was in love with her rejected mate, when the truth was far from that.
“Are you sure, Rania disliked Caden?” Eiten narrowed his eyes, he wanted to make sure of it first.
“Yes. I know how Caden was…” Claire shivered. “I am glad I can escape his clutch.” She lowered her head in shame.
In order to tell Eiten about the truth, she had to let him know about her shameful past with Caden, that was why she had been very reluctant to open up.
When Claire was in relationship with Caden, she was treated no different from Rania, that’s why she could tell what kind of hell that Rania was going through in his hand, and she couldn’t tell anyone about it.
At that time, Caden only did it behind the close door, because Alaric was still the beta of the pack, and it would be very wrong of him to offend him.
Yet, at the same time, he was the future alpha, therefore he could subdue Claire from telling anyone about what he had done to her.
“I am glad I can leave the place.” Claire squeezed her mate’s hand, who had stayed with her during the whole conversation to give her strength. “I am glad I could find the courage to leave the pack after I found my mate.” Claire glanced at her mate sheepishly.
Meanwhile, Eiten was still trying to process everything. It was too much information for him. He was still upset because Claire didn’t come forward sooner.
But he was also upset with himself. Why would he go to the Black Stone pack to gather false information when the truth was so close? He felt stupid.
“But the rumor…”
Claire shook her head. “Caden is very cunning. He must have planned everything. Trust me, Rania must have gone through hell in his hand, there is no way she enjoyed the time with him, especially when Caden used her to take revenge on me.” Once again, Claire apologized profusely.
She was ashamed of herself, and regretted her late confession.
“Please, Rania had gone through a lot. I was not close with her, but I know she is a good person.” She didn’t get close to her because she had to deal with Caden, and didn’t have time to form a bond with her.
“Hh… this is a mess…” Eiten rubbed his face roughly, he was annoyed with how everything turned out. This catastrophe could have avoided if only…

Chapter 104
A
Eften shook his head, there was no point of regretting what had happened, right now he needed to find Maximix and told him everything. It wouldn’t end good with him, since he failed to deliver the correct
information
“I am sorry, royal gamma Eiten, Claire said for a hundred times.
“I know, there is no need for you to bash yourself in regret. The situation had escalated to this point, we need to find a solution to make it right.”
Eiten then stood up, and Claire and her mate followed.
Outside, the sky had turned bright, it was a new day, and Eiten knew Declan would soon to be on his ass to find Maximus, since he had promised him that.
“Come, Keith, we need to find the king.” Eiten said to the senior warrior, who was Claire’s mate.
Keith was not happy, but he didn’t have other choice. He could feel Claire’s grip on him tightened. She was worried for his safety, which rightfully so.
“Okay. I will follow after you.”
Eiten nodded. He gave time for the two of them alone, and then left the warrior’s quarter first, but when he arrived at the king palace, Declan had been waiting for him.
“We need to move now,” he said curtly, he didn’t even greet the royal gamma, showing how much he was still annoyed with the delay.
“I know, I know,” Eiten said begrudgingly. “The warriors will be gathered in the forest within an hour.”
“An hour?” Declan narrowed his eyes unhappily, his mood had worsened even more after dealing with the elders.
“Don’t look at me like that, if you are not happy, why don’t you lead the venture to the forest too,” Eiten said sharply. He knew Declan wouldn’t be able to do it.
“That’s not part of my role as the beta in this kingdom.”
“Don’t talk about role with me, Declan.” Eiten walked ahead of him. “You don’t even try to think of Maximus’s wellbeing, all you need is for him to sit on the throne and follow the rule.”
