“Kean, please tell me, who else the people that involved with the Movement,” Rania pleaded with her. “We can go to the king, and ask for lenience. Please, this will not end up good. You will not seed in getting Maximus down from his throne. He has Caden now, alpha Caden is one of the instigator, right?”


    Kean didn’t answer her question, instead she stared at Rania incredulously, as if she hadmitted a huge


    crime.<fn013b> ??? ????? ???????s ??? ?????s??? ?? </fn013b>


    “I am not going to tell you a damn thing,” Kean replied harshly. She seemed <i>to </i>be ready to sacrifice herself for her vengeance.


    However, Rania didn’t want her to do that. “Kean, please look at the situation right now, it doesn’t benefit you in the long run if you died. Will the people in the Movement save you if it goes down into that path.”


    Kean’s expression then turned sad. “I don’t expect them to save me, even if I have to die, I will die with a fulfill heart, because I know I die for a great reason.”


    Rania was speechless, she didn’t know what else to say to her, because she sounded very out of touch from reality.


    “Kean, Maximus has captured Caden and my father, whatever the n that the Movement has, it needs to be postponed.” Rania didn’t want to lose Kean, if things went wrong, Kean would be exposed. She didn’t mind if Maximus killed Killian, she would dly ept that, but not Kean. “Please, I want you to live.”


    “If I have to live another day to be part of this pce, I don’t want it.” Kean’s eyes hardened, there was strong emotions and also resolution that you could feel from her. “I want him dead.”


    Rania immediately knew that there was nothing else she could do to solve the situation. They were doomed to walk in different path.


    “I am sorry, it will have to end like this, mydy.” Kean looked genuinely sad. “The time that I spent with you. was precious, and I will forever cherish it.” She gulped down with difficulty.


    Rania felt her heart was so heavy, she looked at Kean, and then nodded. She didn’t know what to say at moment like this, because it was very obvious that they were not going to be friend anymore.


    It had been so long since Rania had a girl as her friend, or friend in general, therefore it hurt her deeply.


    However, before Rania could leave the room, they both heard themotion from outside, and then someone knocked on the door.


    Both Rania and Kean looked at each other, because they were not sure whether or not to open the door, since it seemed, there was something major was going on out there.


    “Open the door. It’s the pce warrior.”


    Rania frowned, but she walked to open the door. “What happened?” She asked, and the warrior was flustered because he found Rania was there.


    “Mydy,” the warrior greeted her, bent his body slightly to give her the respect that she deserved, and then


    he exined why he was there, also what happened. “We need to check the room to find a harmful substantial.”


    Kean’s heart beat <b>so </b>fast when she heard that<b>, </b>and Rania caught up with the predicament. She turned around to look at Kean, and her heart lurched to her stomach, because her worse guess was right; Kean kept the poison bottles inside her bedroom.


    However, before Rania could regain her bearing, the warrior had stepped inside the bedroom. “Excuse me<b>,</b><b>” </b>he said.


    “Wait…” Rania didn’t think much when she spoke, and stopped the warrior, but when he turned around and gave her a questioning look, she didn’t know what to say.


    Say something. Say something.


    Rania forced her brain toe up with a reasonable excuse to get them out of the room, while Kean nched, she stared at the ground, fidgeting with her fingers, visibly trembling.


    “Is this the order from the king? You can’t walk into a woman’s bedroom like that.” That excuse was very


    “Yes, this is the direct order from the king,” the warrior said, confirming it.


    And with that, there was no way for Rania to stop him anymore.


    weak.


    ***


    “They found the poison,” Eiten said. He was the royal gamma, which meant he was the head of the pce warrior, and all the news came through him first.


    “What is it?” Maximus immediately caught up with the look on his royal gamma’s face. Something was not right, and he could tell that.


    “There is something that you need to know, but don’t jump into a conclusion before you ask question,” Eiten said, he didn’t meet Maximus’s eyes, which made the king impatience.


    “What is it?” Maximus repeated the question again, he stood up from his seat and then approached Eiten.


    “They found the poison in Kean’s bedroom,” Eiten exined, and when he mentioned the name, Maximus didn’t have any change on his expression, which indicating that he didn’t recall the name. Therefore, Eiten reminded him. “Kean is the omega that you assigned as Rania’s personal maid.”


    Maximus remembered that woman, but he didn’t really pay attention to her name, there were a few people with the same name.


    “So?” Maximus’s eyes darkened. “Are you going to say that she has been poisoning my mate?” He was going to kill that woman himself if that was the truth.


    “I don’t know, I am not sure.” Eiten shook his head. “I have asked the warriors to bring them here instead of the throne room, because I thought you want to deal with them personally.”


    “Them?” Maximus didn’t know what gibberish that Eiten was trying to tell him, because right now he didn’t


    make any sense at all.


    “Rania was inside Kean’s bedroom when the warrior inspected the area, and she stopped them from taking Kean away.”


    Maximus closed his eyes. “It’s because she liked the girl.”


    “But, not only that…”
