(From Detrius's Perspective)
Right when I heard that she could not be found, I left the eting hastily. It was shortly after Luc told in his mind that they needed a doctor because they discovered an injured woman in the garden.
When she went missing, I was even more concerned because the garden was surrounded by a forest, and there was no way she could have wandered off on her own. My wife was not the type to go sowhere at random.
"Where is she?" I asked as soon as I reached where Luc was.
"She was here just a mont ago. This woman here is bleeding. So, she told to do sothing about it. I was just trying to stop her bleeding, but then when I looked back again, she was not here. I can't even get her sll. Or I could follow her," he said.
"Damn it!" I muttered and transford into my wolf quickly.
It was not because I was angry or because I wanted to. But I could get her scent and it was not just her. There was two male werewolves' scent as well. No wonder they took her away for so reason.
I would not have brought her here if it was not to awaken her power. Awakening her power was important to make sure the pregnancy would not risk her life. I planned to bring the dark mage to our room in secret tonight and have him try to awaken her power. The dark mage was here in Ataraxia.
He was a political mber, so if I summoned him to my kingdom, soone would undoubtedly find out, raising suspicions. That was why I wanted to et him here, but it all was in vain now.
I sprinted off in the direction of her scent. Right then, I saw her running this way as well. Did she manage to defeat them?
'My weak wife? But she is so fragile and weak now... How did she even...?'
While I was thinking about how she did it, I noticed the bloody dagger in her hand. She surely managed to muster the use of the dagger. It was a good decision to give her that.
I was so fast that she did not even notice . Now that I saw it myself that she was safe, I decided to check her more later and deal with those bastards first. Or they might sneak away.
"Take care of her," I said through my mind to Luc. "If she goes missing again, I will make sure you go missing as well, forever."
"Jeez, just go already."
But I did not expect to see my very familiar two bastards there. Because both Isaac and Ezekiel were both from my kingdom, I was able to communicate with them using my mind.
"Perhaps you two seek death a lot, huh? You even had the audacity to touch my wife... It's no surprise you two wished for death!"
Ezekiel was stabbed in the shoulder and his stomach. How many tis did I tell her to stab soone in the eyes? That was the most effective place. If she had the chance to stab him twice, she surely could stab him in the eyes as well. But, perhaps because she feared it would be too cruel, she did not do it.
'You are too kind, my wife...'
Both of them turned into their wolf form as well, knowing perfectly that they stood no chance against in their human form. But did they actually think they stand a chance against in their wolf form?
"You don't even deserve her. You have kidnapped her, locked her up, and even impregnated her," Ezekiel said.
"What's that got to do with you, you fucking bastard?" I snapped.
"I love her. I could make her happy," he said.
"You..."
He should not have provoked that ti. Or perhaps I would have given him a less painful death.
"Huh... You think killing will help your wife feel better?" Isaac panted as blood dripped from the huge scratch on his neck.
The lifeless body of Ezekiel remained on the side. I had never felt so much satisfaction in killing soone before.
"What did you do to her?" I asked.
I would not have bothered talking to them. But I needed to know why they brought my wife here. There was no visible scratch on her body as per what I had seen. And I could not understand many things from reading their minds as well. I needed to hear it from their mouths.
"Heh, what I did do to her? Nothing! I just wanted to make you heirless!" he smirked. Even in his wolf form, the smirk was clear.
'As if I am dying to have an heir... But did he hurt my wife?'
"What?"
"That guy is madly in love with her. He wanted her to live, even if it ant sacrificing his life. He did not care about anything else if she was alright. And I need to make you heirless. That's why we joined forces and planned everything together to get it done."
I knew what I needed to know. There was no need for him anymore. I had wanted to kill him for a long ti. Finally, I got the chance.
After taking care of the trash, I went back to the palace of Ataraxia where we were staying. I could not get her scent anymore. There was a faint trace of her scent there, but that was because she had been here before.
Without a word asking or answering, Luc teleported back to my bedroom in Querencia. My plan failed. I could not awaken my wife's power.
But the most important thing to worry about right now was what kind of dicine they gave her.
"You have a lot to know," Luc said.
"Is her life in danger now?"
"No," Luc said. "She is fine."
"Then I will take a quick shower and wear sothing. I am fucking naked...," I muttered. "And you, take care of this cat."
I gave Ruby the cat that was sleeping. Though I could not bear the sight of the cat, it still liked for so reason.
After taking the shower, I cald down a bit more than before. Luc was still there and my wife's maid was rubbing her hands while my wife was calmly sleeping on the bed. She was wearing her nightgown and looked very relaxed.
"The doctor explained everything to Ruby and she said everything to . Will you listen to it now?" Luc asked.
"Yeah, tell ," I nodded, sitting on the bed beside Blue.
"She has been given a dicine. It's a strong dicine that caused her really bad stomach ache..."
"What? She was hurting?" I asked. More than shocked, I was angry. I should have killed them even more painfully.
"Yes... It was quite a lot. She was crying and screaming," Luc said. "When I took her to the doctor, he said that there is no way to lessen the pain. That's why he told to bring her here so even if she screams in pain, the people there won't find out about it. It seems quite so people know about her pregnancy.
But we still needed to be careful so others would not find out. Well, it's not like it matters right now."
"... Tell clearly," I said even though I kind of knew what happened.
"The dicine- it forced a miscarriage," he muttered in a low tone. "That's why she suffered from severe stomach pain."
"Her Highness bled a bit as well. I cleaned her up and changed her dress. Her Highness does not know since the doctor gave her a dicine that forced her to lose consciousness. He said she will sleep for a day, at least."
"So, she is not pregnant anymore?"
"No..."
"I know what you are thinking," Luc said. "You are right. Her life is not in danger in more. The dicine only caused the miscarriage. It was a special dicine because it would not put her life in danger, only caused her pain. Her life was in danger because of the child.
Since it was a werewolf's, precisely saying, an Alpha's child, it was harming her health and there was a possibility that she would lose her life. But now, since she is not pregnant anymore, she is fine now and her life is not at risk at all."
I was relieved that her life was not in danger anymore and that she would not leave . But she had suffered a lot alone. I wished I could be with her. If I could take all her pain, I would do so without hesitation.
I was also worried about how she would react after hearing the news. She was adamant about keeping the child. She was already traumatized because of her family. I did not want her to be burdened with that kind of feeling again.
