“Cause trouble under my care?” Maximus tilted his head lazily. He wanted to hear what this man could tell him. “What trouble do you think she will cause me?”

Alaric looked compose in his seat, as he looked at the king, but not in his eyes, because the intensity of his gaze was something he couldn’t bear. “My king. I can’t say it, because if I do, I will portray a bad image on her, and no matter what, she is still my daughter.”

“Then I don’t think you need to see her. She is fine. Alive, and unharmed, if that’s what you care about. You can leave now.” Maximus was a little bit disappointed, because he expected more from this imbecile before his eyes.

He didn’t like the beta for various reasons. He was a cunning old man. This was not their first encounter. Maximus remembered him even before he ascended the throne.

“My king, I am glad that she is fine under your care, but I miss my daughter.” Alaric then took a deep breathe, as if he was holding the burden of the world. “I am glad that you don’t act harshly with the rumors that spread around about her, but she is still my daughter, and I didn’t get a chance to see her when you took her away.”

“So, you blame me?”

“No, of course not!” There was a little panic in Alaric’s voice, he waved his hands to dismiss the accusation, but then he sighed again. “I only want to give her an advice. She had tarnished her own name back in the Black Stone pack, and now she is your mate and will be the queen of this kingdom, I want her to behave.”

“Who told you she will be the queen of this kingdom?”

Shock was written clearly on Alaric’s face when he heard that, but Maximus ignored that, as he continued.

“If you couldn’t even give her an advice when she was still in the Black Stone pack, what makes you think it

will work now?”

And Alaric didn’t have an answer for that, but he wouldn’t be a beta if he couldn’t get himself out of this.

“My king, all of what happened were punishment for her, and I think she had learned her lesson. I believe she will listen to me now. Whether you will make her the queen or not, she still need to behave herself, so she will. not sully your name.”

“Sully my name?” Maximus laughed, as if that was the funniest thing he had ever heard. His moniker was the Mad King, after all. “What else she can do to sully my name?”

And only then Alaric realized he had said the wrong thing. This time, he didn’t try to be smart, and shut his mouth, waiting for the king to stop laughing at his mishap.

“If there is nothing else you want to say, you can leave.”

Alaric lowered his head. He had two options; he could leave, and forget the reason why he came here, or… he could give the king what he wanted. Caden had told him to expect this.

“My king. What do you want to know about my daughter?” Alaric finally asked, his expression didn’t show any

emotion, and now the king put on a seriousness as well.

This was when the real conversation began.

“What kind of mistake she had done to be punished, and then demoted to be an omega?” Maximus interlaced his fingers, as he propped his chin on them. His gaze was sharp enough for Alaric to feel restless, even though he covered it really well.

“That…” He acted trouble to talk about his daughter’s mistake, but then the story came out very smoothly. He didn’t hold back to let the king know what offenses Rania had committed.

Rania’s mother left the pack because she found her destined mate. She left Rania and Alaric without saying a word to be with that man.

“I think she got that from her mother.” There was still anger and resentment that lingered with the way Alaric was talking about Rania’s mother.

And then, around the age of fourteen, she seduced her stepbrother. Killian resisted her, because they were practically family, and he felt that was completely wrong to have such relationship with his step sister.

Ever since that rejection, Rania went wild, she tried to be with any men that she could get. Her actions had tarnished the family’s name, and no matter what Alaric did, Rania wouldn’t tone down her promiscuous

activities.

Which led her to the day when she wanted to run away from the pack house, because the pack member hated her for seducing almost all the men there.

They managed to catch her and bring her back to the pack house, where she was demoted to be an omega. Because of that also, alpha Caden rejected her as his mate.

“But, even after that, she still chased after the alpha, because the mate bond was apparently still there, and alpha Caden couldn’t resist her when she kept throwing herself at him.”

Alaric lifted his head, and gave the king an apologetic look, which made Maximus tempt to gouge his eyes.

“The alpha is a man after all, and he has not yet with someone else. The temptation made him weak. It was a lapse of judgment to tangle himself with Rania, and he admitted that.” Alaric shook his head. “That’s why I don’t want her to make the same mistake again here.”

The story was rather believable to say the least, and Maximus listened to it attentively. It was hard to tell whether the former beta was reiterating the truth, or he rehashing his lies.

“I hope you can understand this, my king. No matter how flaw my daughter is, she is still my blood. A family

will not hurt each other.”
