Jasmine sat closer with Killian, as he put his arm around her shoulder, which gave her a sense of comfort and
safe.
She tried so hard not to look at the royal beta Gayle, she treated him as air. She fought back the urge to ask more of the wolfbane. Thankfully, she was not too far gone, thus she was still be able to hold herself together.
Because this time, her regret for her mate was greater than any of her urgency for the drug. Her regret was even stronger than her sadness upon the death of her father.
She had lost her father, and there was nothing she could do to bring him back, but if she didn’t do anything about Killian, she was going to lose him too, which was something that she couldn’t afford. She loved him so much, and the guilty feeling was killing her.
However, the same thing couldn’t be said to Gayle, because the old hag had been staring at her blatantly, smiling salaciously, which didn’t go unnoticed by Michael. He wanted to finish him right there and then, because the sight of him made his blood boiled.
“There will be the right time for that.‘
That was what Killian said to stop Michael from killing Gayle. They needed to bring back his body, so they could ignite the anger from the Barlukan warrior to see their royal beta was killed.
But, if they killed Gayle now, it would slow them down, they needed to get closer to the meeting point, so they wouldn’t need to carry him with them for long.
Let the dead man walk to his end.
He had been a burden when he was alive, therefore, as much as possible, they didn’t want to carry the burden of his dead body.
“I think it is the time,” Michael said to Killian when he saw Gayle had crumpled on the forest floor, sleeping, snoring blissfully, didn’t know the danger that lurked around from the two people that he thought he was safe with.
“No. We still need to walk for five hours. Jasmine is at her limit. She will not be able to catch up if we don’t carry her.”
Michael groaned. Killian was right.
“Fine. Let’s do it when we are a little bit closer,” Michael said. He then glanced at Jasmine. “How is she?”
“Exhausted, but she is fine.” Killian glanced at Jasine, who was sleeping, using his thigh as a pillow.
“Thank you for taking care of her, I really appreciate it.”
Killian said nothing.

Chapter 182
This was the first time for Rania to he very close with the battlefield, she could hear the howl and angry Foar from the distance, as the beast fought against the beast.
The casualties kept coming to the makeshift infirmary that she had prepared. She was out of staff. She needed more people to brew the concoction, and the two healers were at their limit as well.
Rania watched the black smoke outside, she narrowed her eyes, as the first sunlight touched the sky. [Now.]
Once they were at the safe distance, and they saw the huge gates to the capital city was opened, Rania tugged Darren’s sleeve, and then told him this was time.
Darren immediately used his mindlink. The mindlink wouldn’t reach the other warriors in the mountain, but there were a few warriors among the distance, who would relay the message.

And once the message reached the people, who had been stationed at the mountain, they started to do what they had to do.
“Are you sure, this will work?”
Rania was not sure, but this was the only way she knew, therefore, it had to work. Or else, they would be doomed.
A few minutes later they heard the loud explosion in the distance, as the enemies marched forward. Because of how loud it was, they were too stunned to move forward and then looked around to see the mountain was shaking.
There was a rumbling sound in the distance, and the ground was trembling.
