The King's Wife Is The Alpha's Mate

Chapter 336 The King Is A Lycan

"Are you sure what you're saying isn't reversed? Instead of you coming here and accusing my wife, go home and tie your fiancé to the stake so he doesn't keep coming to see my wife and disturbing my family."

Leland didn't usually talk much, but he was so annoyed by the fact that Nicholas came earlier and now his fiancee too.

He wanted to make sure Karenina get the message and put a leash on the king since she would become his wife.

"Both of your eyes are blind because of your love for your wife. Because of that, you can't see how bad the woman you have married is," Karenina retorted.

"Don't test my patience." Leland stared very intently. He had to remind himself not to lose control and crush Karenina to nothing.

"Right now your wife may still be with you but if she continues to meet the king, it is not impossible that their past love will blossom again and she will leave you. If you don't want that to happen, take your wife away from here so they can't meet," said Karenina. "Go back to where you all belong."

She added, "Look... we are on the same side here. I want to save my relationship with Nicholas, and you must want to keep your wife, especially now that she is pregnant with your child. Think about it."

She sighed waited for Leland to respond, but the man was silent in his place. He didn't show any emotion.

Didn't he have feelings? Was he not jealous that his wife was involved with the king? Nicholas was clear with his intention to stay in his children's lives by sending the doctor earlier today. Didn't that bother this duke?

So many questions filled Karenina's mind.

"Fine. Suit yourself," Karenina finally gave up. She felt like talking to air. "Don't cry and regret this day when she finally leaves you heartbroken."

Karenina scoffed and turned around. She went to her carriage and immediately told the coachman to take her back.

Meanwhile, Leland had been trying hard to contain his anger when he heard Karenina speak. He knew that Karenina was trying to instigate him but what the woman said had some truth in it.

He didn't like it that today Sophie welcomed a royal physician to check on Jan's condition without consulting him.

He knew she had all the rights to do it, but since Doctor Lehman was sent specifically by Nicholas, Leland wished Sophie would talk to him before letting the man in.

He didn't want her to think he was petty and cared more about his jealousy than Jan's well-being. That's why he pretended not to know about the doctor's visit.

Today, it was the doctor. What's next? Their grandmother? Leland remembered the old queen was so attracted to Luciel and Jan when they met at the royal party. She laughed a lot and played with them.

The kids liked her too. What if someday the old queen came to visit and Luciel and Jan finally knew that the old woman was their grandmother. They must like having more family members. All their lives they didn't have grandparents figure.

Leland's own mother was a snake. She might even be the mastermind behind his unborn children's deaths. Isolde was the definition of evil. She was a scary and vicious grandmother.

While Queen Marianne seemed like the doting grandmother that any young child would love to have. Ahh... damn you, Nicholas! Why do you have everything? Leland wanted to curse.

He was mad himself for envying Nicholas' life. He seemed to have a really nice mother, unlike Leland with Isolde.

Now, should he take Sophie and the children back to Frisia? He could avoid such complications and the kids would never get to know their family from their biological father's side. Things would also be easier for Sophie in Frisia.

Leland was deep in thoughts.

Karenina's entire love for Nicholas had completely turned to hatred. Now she just wanted to make the man suffer. One day after she visited Duke Romanov's manor, Karenina decided to come to Noel, the head of the Royal Lycan Hunter.

KNOCK KNOCK

Noel looked up from his sword that he was cleaning when he heard the knocks on the door. He was surprised to see Karenina come to his place.

"Good afternoon, Noel," Karenina stepped in and greeted the man.

She turned her gaze around and found the man's house was really simple. Even though the Royal Lycan Hunters was an elite group and Noel must have been paid really good money, the man still lived in a really small and old house.

"Hello, Your Grace. Please, come in." Noel invited Karenina to sit down. He was quite surprised by her visit.

"What is the important thing that made the esteemed princess come here?" Noel's tone was a little cynical. The man had not forgotten Karenina's insult of calling him the king's pet dog at her birthday party.

From then on he lost his sympathy for Karenina. He knew that Karenina was not a good woman for the king. He was even sure that the king did not rape Karenina but that it was the woman who framed the king.

Noel remembered how Karenina really wanted Noel to leave the king's room at that time.

"I'm sure when you hear this, you will be surprised," said Karenina which made Noel knit his eyebrows in confusion.

"Try me," said the man flatly.

"Well..." Karenina sat on the sofa and made herself comfortable before she continued her words. "The king is a lycan."

She watched Noel's face to see his reaction. Just as she expected, the man looked surprised.

"What makes you say that?" Noel asked carefully.

Karenina shrugged. "I found out about this when he saved me after I jumped from the tower. I only came back after calming myself down in my hometown. I was so shaken when I saw him turn into a monster."

Noel rubbed his chin. What he said next also made Karenina feel surprised.
