Chapter 77 I Just Want Answers

Ann froze as the enormity of her father’s words hit her. “You’re seriously going to disinherit me and remove my livelihood?” Ann whispered in horror.

Leopold smiled a cruel smile as he glared directly at Adam.

“Let’s see how long Alpha Nocturne sticks around now that you’re no use to him anymore.” he chuckled.

“You’re making a huge mistake,” Adam growled as he glared back at the Alpha King.

This had descended into madness far quicker than he had dared to imagine. It was true that he and the King had never truly seen eye to eye, but as a child, he had looked up to the strong and seemingly capable Alpha King, and for a time at least, had held him in high regard. But Ann was right, something had changed drastically in the King. Now, he was nothing more than a middle-aged man, past his best and seemingly teetering on the brink of madness.

Leopold laughed at Adam’s statement and grinned wickedly.

“Am I? I don’t think so. She has chosen her bed and now? Well, now she can lie in it. She’s no daughter of mine. She should have rejected you as she did Brad. Who in their right mind would take an unhinged Alpha rumored to have k*il*led his parents?” Leopold sneered viciously.

Adam tensed considerably as Ann gasped loudly and before she could stop her, Maeve surged forward and pushed Ann to the back of her mind.

“I’ll happily lay in the bed of my mate, as the goddess intended.” Maeve sneered as she stalked forwards with no fear in her golden irises as she neared the King.

asked hesitantly as Maeve flicked her eyes toward him and nodded curtly. “I have questions that I want answered, my mate.” Maeve purred darkly as she flashed

Where is he?” Maeve

but he refused to answer. “It’s okay little king. You can answer…

Maeve purred dangerously.
