"I bet my this month's wage that Lady Bennet is His Majesty's real mate." A King's guard whispered to another guard standing next to him.
"Which one?" The other one responded.
"That savior one."
"I do not concur. His Majesty made the elder one our Queen after all."
"Yes. But look who he left and look who is inside the Imperial Wing at the moment."
"You do realize that you are implying that Our King lied about his mate bond before, don't you?"
"The bet, damn it! Will you or won't you?"
"Fine. I still think the elder one is his mate. Or else why would he mark her and make her the Queen?"
Their banter was interrupted when they saw their Alpha Wolf approaching the Wing, dragging a dead elk effortlessly with his mouth by it's antler. All the them bowed their heads while Kon entered the Wing.
The guard smirked, "Would an Alpha Wolf hunt for anyone other than his mate? Oh I'm going to buy my wife the necklace she's been raving about with your salary."
