Chương 45: A Vow Of Purpose (Ch.45)

lIt was perhaps the only thing Neveah and Alessio had in common, while Neveah saw a mate as an unnecessary burden, Alessio had always considered a mate nothing but a weakness.

And Neveah did understand why, after watching his mother grow unreasonable and vindictive after the betrayal of her mate...

  Alessio had come to detest the effect of the mate bond and how much it consumed a wolf shifter.

He would always say 'A King's will was his alone.', the insignificant feelings of love and companionship were nothing but weaknesses.

It was funny how he and everyone else was willing to blame everything and anyone else for the Alpha King's mistake but the Alpha King himself.

Somehow, Alpha King Lothaire Raul was the victim and Neveah was the evildoer, it was truly laughable.

"I... I couldn't sleep and I came out for a walk in the woods even when I'm not supposed to." Neveah murmured, finally giving a response to Alessio's question.
