Chapter 64: Missing

Blake went back to the bonfire after talking to Victor. As he reached the place, the wolf king smiled at him "I was waiting for you, your majesty"

Blake was surprised "For me?"

The King nodded his head "I wanted to discuss some important matters with you"

"Let’s hear it then" Blake replied

The wolf king cleared his throat and started talking "As you already know, the beast city is not restricting the entry of savage beastmen anymore, so I’m inviting you to bring snake clan inside the city"

Blake pondered about it for some time and nodded his head "I’ll send a word to my men to enter the city as soon as possible"

The wolf king smiled at him and opened his mouth "It is settled now" then he called his son "Join us for the dinner, bring both the kings and your female"

"Yes father" Lucas agreed politely

Lucas went towards Lyra and informed her about the dinner, after she agreed, all of them together with Victor, Blake, and Noah climbed up the plaza.

Lexi was seated with her mate the eagle king and Elena was sitting with her father the black wolf tribe’s king as she didn’t have any king beastman as her mate.

Lucas’s mother smiled brightly when she caught sight of Lyra "Sit with me child!" her excited voice brought everyone’s attention towards Lyra.

The table was engulfed in silence as soon as Lyra entered the plaza, she awkwardly smiled at the guests and sat beside Lucas and his mother, Blake sat next to Lucas followed by Noah and Victor, the wolf queen smiled smugly and opened her mouth "This is Lyra, my son’s female"

Demir’s father blinked in astonishment "You are so beautiful"

Lyra shrunk in her chair, everyone was looking at her like some spectacle, she soon recovered and smiled back at him. Then the scorpion king exclaimed loudly "Oh my! she looks even prettier with her smile"

Lyra flinched because of his loud voice, Demir realized that she was uncomfortable and nudged his father, then whispered into his ears "Stop it father, she is getting uneasy because of your over-enthusiasm"

The scorpion king neglected his son’s words and continued talking to Lyra "Did I make you uncomfortable child?"

Lyra blinked her eyes and shook her head "It is fine uncle"

The scorpion king smiled dreamily "Even your voice is pretty" then his eyes twinkled as he pointed towards Demir "This is my son Demir, he is an immortal beastman" he emphasized the word immortal beastman.

Lyra glanced at Demir "I have met Demir once in the past"

The King widened his eyes, he looked between his son and Lyra "Do you guys already know each other?"

Demir nodded his head "She is one I mentioned two days ago" he peered at her eyes "My sunshine"

"You mean the one who helped you when your poison was acting up?" his father inquired

"Hmm, she is the one" Demir confirmed

The Scorpion King gazed at Lyra gratefully "Thank you for helping my son Lyra"

Lyra shook her head "You don’t need to thank me, uncle. It was the right thing for me to do in that situation"

He nodded his head and resumed eating his food.

Lexi and Elena on another side were not able to come out of their stupefaction after seeing Lyra. The female in front of them was far too beautiful for them to even utter a sarcastic remark. Lexi gritted her teeth when she noticed Demir’s obvious interest in Lyra, she couldn’t tolerate that wench snatching the male she fancied. Next to her Elena’s eyes were flaring with jealousy when she witnessed Lucas smiling at Lyra. she eyed her father to start speaking.

Her father understood and opened his mouth "I never imagined that you could do this to me and my daughter Helio"

Lucas’s father frowned "What are you talking about Alex?"

Alexander narrowed his eyes "You already knew how much my daughter loved your son, but you allowed your son to break my precious daughter’s heart"

Lucas put his wooden spoon on the table and glared at Alex "I never loved your daughter to break her heart, she was the delusional one to declare me as her male without even asking my permission" then he eyed Elena "And the one I love and always will is my Ly"

Elena gritted her teeth and held her father’s hand "It’s fine father, Lucas is speaking all this because of that wench, he does not mean this"

"Elena!" Lucas’s cold voice filled the table "If you have something, then talk to me, don’t you dare insult my Ly"

Elena snickered "Am I lying? She is indeed a wench who you found in the forest" she continued as she glared at Lyra "It is obvious that she was an unloved wench who was thrown away by her parents and tribe"

Lyra didn’t know why, but Elena’s words pierced her heart, in this world, she was always missing her parents, and it made her feel pathetic hearing that she was unloved by someone who didn’t even know about her. Lyra’s emotions filled her eyes causing tears to trickle down her cheeks.

Elena smiled triumphantly when she witnessed Lyra’s tears and right at the next moment, her father who was beside her was slammed against a boulder.

Everyone dispersed from the table and saw a large black snake tail squeezing the black wolf tribe’s king, Blake continued holding him as he spoke "I can tolerate anything else but not someone hurting my Lilly" he glared at Elena "You dare mock my female? kneel and apologize now to her and I will release your father or get ready to hold a funeral for your father"

Elena widened her eyes and glanced at Lucas’s parents, but the latter just turned their faces away, Elena closed her eyes trying to calm herself, she strode slowly towards Lyra and knelt in front of her "I apologize for saying those words to you" her eyes were bloodshot as she continued "Please ask your male to release my father"

Lyra was taken aback by someone kneeling in front of her, she awkwardly glanced at Blake "It’s enough Blake" she said and turned around to leave.

Blake threw Elena’s father to the ground and followed after Lyra. Walking some distance Lyra slumped on Lucas’s arm making him nervous "Are you okay Ly?"

She shook her head "I miss my mom and dad, I wish I could go back to them"

Four males except Demir panicked hearing her words, Blake strode towards her and snatched her from Lucas, he stuttered as he spoke to her "Pl-please don’t say those words, Lilly, my heart will stop the moment you leave me"

Lucas felt his throat burning "Ly, please take those words back"

Noah felt his heart-piercing hearing her words "How can say that baby dove?"

Victor felt like his world was crumbling down on his feet, he stroked her head "Don’t be so cruel to me love, I feel like dying listening to you"

Demir on the sidelines who didn’t understand the situation just remained silent, but he also felt anxious seeing all their reaction to her words.

Lyra felt bad seeing their pain-stricken face, earlier her emotions made her say those words, she never meant to say that, how could she leave all of them? Her new life was here with them.

"I’m sorry, I didn’t mean those words" she apologized

"Promise me that you will never leave this world" came the quick retort from Lucas

She nodded her head "I promise that I will never leave you guys"

Four males’ eyes filled with tears making her heartache for them "I’m truly sorry"

Blake smiled sadly and looked at Noah "Take Lilly back to the castle, we three have somewhere to go"

Noah nodded his head and took Lyra with him.

After they left Blake’s face turned stiff, he glanced at Lucas "Where is sapphire of wish?"

Lucas replied "It is in wolf castle, I hid it inside my chamber"

Blake narrowed his eyes "Lilly should never find out about that, she should never learn about its ability to open a portal to her world"

Victor agreed with him "It’s true, we don’t even know if we can cross to another world if she goes there, it is better to keep it as a secret from her"

"What are you all talking about?" Demir’s voice broke the exchange of words between them.

Blake glanced at him "I’ll explain everything to you, but you must take me to your tribe’s sage"

Demir "For what?"

"Lyra is not from this world" Victor cleared Demir’s doubt "She can leave this world whenever she wishes and may never return"

Demir frowned "What does that mean?"

Victor explained everything in detail leaving Demir stunned, he held his forehead "Follow me"

Three of them followed after him to meet the sage.
