Chapter 158: NOT A BAD PLAN
Before this, Dacre would lose his baby during the early pregnancy, but even if Rimera could bring the baby full term, she would lose their baby when she gave birth to them.
There was nothing more painful to give birth to a dead baby. Rimera had one stillbirth and that kept haunting Dacre.
Until he was sure that his baby would be alive and Nycta would have smooth delivery, his position would still be unstable.
And now, he heard there was an indication that Zuri might be pregnant... He had gotten rid of Xaden’s child, he was going to do the same thing to Khaos’s.
"King Dacre," Rose called his name because he was too engrossed to his own thought, to the point he didn’t even hear what she was saying.
"Yes? What did you say?" Dacre snapped back to reality. He stared at Rose. He knew this princess’s aim for him or Khaos to be her chosen mate. She was not satisfied with the fact she was going to have Logan as her mate.
Before, Dacre had used Faye and now...
"I was talking about the attack to alpha Khaos’s ships." Rose sat down next to the king, her movement was very graceful. Her scent permeated in the air. She was a temptation. "If you are going to use this opportunity to take the alpha down, we need to have someone to take the blame if the plan went south."
Dacre had agreed to Rose’s plan to take all the food supply and burned the ships and while they were at it, they were going to kill as many Khaos’s warriors as possible.
The king also would disguise the attacker as someone from Great Lunar kingdom, to enhance the people’s hatred toward their enemy. From then on, he was going to make the best out of this chaotic situation.
Everything would go in his favor if it ran smoothly.
"I have someone in my mind that can be the sacrifice, if the plan met with the problem." Dacre knew exactly, who could that person be. He wouldn’t be in disadvantage if that person became the sacrificial lamb, in fact, he would be able to plot something about it too.
"Great, who is that person, king Dacre?" Rose asked curiously, because the look on Dacre’s face was rather interesting.
One thing that Dacre learned from Khaos was; if you made a plan, you had to think about all the possible case scenarios and made plan about each of the possibility too.
He really needed to thank Khaos for teaching him this valuable lesson and now, he was going to use it against him.
However, little did he know that there was no way he could surpass the instigator.
"That’s wonderful! I have never met someone as smart as you!" Rose praised Dacre. A way to man’s heart was to say whatever they wanted to hear to boast their ego.
Rose stroke his arm and leaned over to kiss him, but Dacre turned his head to avoid it.
"I keep you by my side, because you have a good head on your shoulders, but if you are trying to start an affair with me, I can cut your good head off for a treason for the queen."
Rose went pale, blood immediately drained from her face when she heard the harsh word. "I... I didn’t... I didn’t mean that... that’s only a heat of a moment." Rose immediately fell on her knees and begged for forgiveness. "It will never happen again! That’s a poor moment of my judgment!"
Dacre stood up in front of her. "This will be the last time. I don’t care if you made a move on someone else, but I am not going away from my pregnant mate to start an affair with her sister."
What Dacre’s mean was very clear. Rose didn’t have a chance with him, but if she wanted, she could shoot her shot to Khaos.
In that case, she needed to do something if Zuri was really pregnant with his child. Rose was smart, she must be able to know about that.
With this, Dacre only needed to sit back and relax, while Rose did the job. It was the same thing with Faye.
Woman could be a dangerous creature when their heart filled with jealousy and Rose was not different. She was

A week later, it was finally happening. Khaos received a report about the strange activity around the pier and his scout told him they were the warriors from Great Lunar kingdom.
Currently, Zuri and Khaos were in the bedroom, talking about everything until late at night when Khaos received the news.
"There is no way it’s them," Zuri said. She was sitting on top of the table, eating her grapes. She looked aloof, but occasionally, she would mumble something incoherently, as if she was talking to someone that no one could see except her.
That was Zuri’s current condition. Reality and hallucination collided in her head. But, her condition right now was better than they expected, since the beauty blood was almost completed and she still had present mind.
"No, obviously not." Khaos picked a grape and plopped it into her mouth when she wanted to say something. "Dacre wanted to stir something by involving the Great Lunar kingdom."
Zuri swallowed the grape and spoke. "Me." She jumped from the table and took a bowl of grape with her, as she walked away from Khaos. "He wanted to remind these people about the treason that my father and Xaden had done. He wanted to ruin my reputation, which in extent, you."
Khaos watched Zuri put away the bowl, because she didn’t want him to randomly feed her with the fruit.
"Good plan. Rose is not a bad planner." Khaos approached Zuri and she frowned, hiding the bowl behind her body, but he took a grape anyway and instead put it between his lips and leaned over to tease her.
"Don’t praise her!" Zuri growled and took the grape with her mouth.
