The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 1101: Side story: no, why should i?

Kace was only eight years old when he sneaked out to go to the central city, throwing the entire castle into an unexpected catastrophe.

People wouldn't be surprised to see the King having an outburst again, but to see the Queen showing her ferocity was a rare sight to behold.

And now all the people in the castle were able to witness one such rare moment.

The queen was no longer gentle and kind, but she was a storm in broad daylight once she knew that her younger son was not in the castle and no guards knew where he went.

Kace was too young to roam around in the city alone and everything could happen to him. As he was one of the Donovans, his royal blood alone could attract an enemy to do something bad to him.

Or maybe this was just the queen, who was being overly anxious, but she really didn't like it when she wasn't kept updated with her son's whereabouts.

"Stop reading that and join me to find Kace," Torak said to Jedrek when he entered his room. Of course, as the older brother, he had the responsibility to take care of his younger one.

On the other hand, Jedrek didn't look very happy when Torak interrupted him. He squinted his eyes at him and continued to bury his nose in the book in his hands.

However, Torak was as stubborn as him, thus in the next second, the book in Jedrek's hand was gone and this incited a growl from him.

"Stop growling at me," Torak said, not even flinching when Jedrek stood up. He was taller than his brother, yet it was not something that would scare Torak away. "Or else mother will make things difficult for both of us."

Both of them knew that Kace was their mother's favorite son, but she always said that their younger brother was still very little, thus he needed some extra attention, but either way, both Jedrek and Torak didn't mind it at all.

Seeing the way their mother spoiled Kace was enough for them to be very glad that it was not them, who was in their younger brother's shoes.

"Where did that brat go?" Jedrek growled again as he grumbled while he stood up from his chair.

Actually, it was not the first time for Kace to leave the castle. But of course, this was the first time that their mother came to know about what he was doing and this shoved the whole castle into a panic mode.

"Do you think I will be here if I knew?" Torak remarked at his brother's question.

"Watch your mouth," Jedrek snapped. The Alpha's blood in his veins didn't like the disrespect that Torak just showed to him.

However, it was not only him, who have Alpha's blood running hot in his veins, therefore Torak didn't even flinch when he heard the warning in his voice.

"You have to watch your behavior instead," Torak talked back to him.

Both of them often quarreled with each other, but fortunately they also knew that they should leave it at that and shouldn't prolong it into something crucial.

Jedrek threw Torak a look, but he didn't say anything as they walked down the corridor, where many guards were walking back and forth with hazy gazes, as they mind- linked each other to inform the progress.

"There are a lot of guards, who are already looking for him, there is no need for us to join the herd," Jedrek said, grumbling.

However, even though that was what he said, he led the way to the backyard garden, where more guards and servants were swarming in one place. The queen must be in her throne, listening to every mind- link that involved her son, while the king was away from the castle.

Yet, actually this was quite fortunate for those poor souls, because they wouldn't want to experience the wrath of the king and queen at the same time.

"His scent is not here," Torak said, as he lifted his nose and smelled the air, but his younger brother's scent was not in the air, but Jedrek stubbornly moved forward and didn't hear what he said. "I said he is not here!"

Torak then grabbed Jedrek's arm to pull him back, so he would listen to him.

"He knows how to cover his scent," Jedrek answered him and swatted Torak's hand away from his arm. "He stole something from the healer to cover his scent. You too heard it through the mind- link."

Yes, the thing that little Kace stole from the healer was a pouch of magic dust that could hide one's scent for a couple of hours.

Torak knew about the magic dust, but... "How did he find about the magic dust?" He squinted his eyes, staring at his brother accusingly.

"I told him about it," Jedrek replied, shrugging his shoulders nonchalantly, as if that was not anything big.

Torak opened his mouth, and was about to protest, but then he swallowed his words when he realized that Jedrek wouldn't listen to him anyway. His brother just loved annoying people and it was a waste of his time and breath to scold him for doing something that he himself knew was wrong.

However, that was not the main point now, because the magic dust had some side effects that couldn't be ignored. That was why, even though they knew there was some kind of that magic, no one would recklessly use that.

Well, at least an eight year old child wouldn't think about the consequences, especially when the person who told them about it didn't give complete information.

And just like what they thought, after a long walk inside the forest, where the quietness engulfed them and the sound of waterfall and chirping birds filled the air, they found the little white lycan, whimpering near the water, trying to rub his fur against the rocks. historical

"You didn't tell him that using the magic dust would cause a very intense itching sensation, did you?" Torak glanced at Jedrek, who was walking toward their brother calmly. There was no regret on his expression when he replied.

"No, why should I? He didn't ask."

How could you expect an eight year old to ask about that?!
