Chapter 3 Lycan King

"Your father and I are good friends, so I was very happy when you became Cole’s Luna back then. Rory, if you leave the Rotwoods Pack now, I'll feel so sorry for your father."

Rory felt a little awkward.

Cole frowned, looking unhappy. Sylvia, who was sitting next to him, held his hand tightly.

"Grandpa, he's not the one who wants a divorce, I am. I don't like him anymore," Rory said as she saw that Alpha Jaime and Cole were about to have a fight.

Everyone was silent after she finished talking.

Alpha Cole looked at the side of her face and suddenly frowned.

"Well, you guys can break the bond. That’s better than having you spend your life with that idiot," Alpha Jaime muttered to himself as he watched Rory leave.

Jaime Turner sighed. He wasn't in the mood to talk to Cole, so he went straight to his study room.

Cole looked even more displeased.

After Sylvia left, Cole went up to the study room to find Alpha Jaime.

"Grandpa, Sylvia will be my future Luna. I hope you can be kind to her even if you don't like her."

"When Rory's father died, she lived in the Redleaves pack. Cole, Rory did a lot for you, but Sylvia only served you a bowl of soup. Do you really think she's the best for you?" Cole’s father couldn’t help but sigh.

Cole clenched his hands into fists.

The next day, at 8:30, Rory called Cole to discuss the bond-breaking.

"Alpha Cole, come by the courthouse at nine in the morning if you're free. I'm waiting for you at the door."

"I have a meeting later. Let's talk about this a few days later." After saying that, Cole hung up the phone.

Rory was stunned because she had made a point of reminding Cole of that yesterday. She did not call him but chose to wait.

Walking back, she remembered Nicki had mentioned Professor Fuchs’s illness yesterday. Therefore, she called her professor and planned to visit him.

When Rory arrived at Fuchs' house, she followed the maid to the study room.

"Quiet!" Rory's wolf, Aria, was restless throughout the way, so she had to stop her.

Before Rory could even enter the study, she heard Professor Fuchs talking.

"Blake, I'd love to treat your sister, but I don't have a solution for this right now. Psychotherapy tends to be long-period, and it's most important not to give up in the middle of it. I'm not in the right physical condition to treat patients right now."

"Your health is a more important. If you know another psychiatrist, please recommend him to me."

Rory was stunned when she heard what they was talking about.

Professor Fuchs nodded his head.

The maid knocked on the door and pushed it open.

"Mr. Fuchs, Ms. Lane is here."

"Rory, come in." Professor Fuchs said joyfully.

Rory saw the face of the man whom Professor Fuchs was talking with. He was really good looking.

His features were exquisite, and his eyes were as deep as the sea. He sat where the sun did not shine, making him look even more dangerous, yet he also omits calm and low-key demeanor, like a work of art.

Rory roughly guessed who the man was.

"King Blake, if Princess Hailee's condition worsens, I'm afraid..." Professor Fuchs started.

The man was King Blake, the famous Lycan King!

"Then I will visit you some other time." Realizing that he had a visitor, the man had no choice but to say goodbye to Professor Fuchs.

King Blake then left.

Rumor had it that King Blake was decisive and ruthless, but he was also low-key and mysterious, so many people were curious about him.

Rory didn't expect to meet King Blake at the professor's place.

She suddenly remembered that Nicki said that King Blake would also be at the hunt tomorrow.

Rory couldn't help but feel curious, and Aria let out a few low growls.

Professor Fuchs was overwhelmed with emotion when he heard about her bond-breaking.

Back in the day, Rory was his favorite student in college. He was sorry to hear that she had gotten married early and had to give up her studies for an Alpha, who was even not her fated mate.

He felt relieved when he realized that Rory was not as sad as he imagined about the bond-breaking.

"Back then, you were the best student in the psychology department. If you hadn't gotten married, you might have made a name for yourself in the field of psychology a long time ago. Now that you're free, have you ever considered trying to work in psychology again?"

"There's no rush about it. I'm willing to help you if you're interested." Professor Fuchs could see that she was hesitating and reassured.

"Professor, thank you."

After asking him about his condition, Rory chatted with him for a while.

Rory did not leave until the afternoon.

The next day, Nicki drove to Mountain Zumro after picking up Rory.

They were almost the first to arrive.

After Rory changed her clothes, she began to pick out a shotgun.

When she left the room, she heard a familiar voice.

"Alpha Cole, Sylvia, what brings you here? I thought you guys weren't interested in this!"

"Sylvia said it was beautiful here, so we came for a walk."

Rory pushed the door and walked out to see one of Cole's friends greeting the two enthusiastically.

"Luna Rory? What are you doing here?" Seeing her coming out, the man shouted with some surprise.

After saying that, he looked at Cole and felt instant regret.

Rory's hair was tied up. Instead of wearing glasses, she was wearing contact lenses. More than that, was wearing professional hunting clothes, looking sharp and casual.

"What are you doing here?" Cole had never seen her dressed like that before, so he frowned and asked.

"You're taking your lover around for a little fun, aren't you? Why don't you allow Rory to forget about the pain of being married to you?" Nicki, who had already changed her clothes, glared at Cole.

"No. Ms. Joseph, that's not what Cole meant. Cole and Ms. Lane are divorced, aren't they? Ms. Lane can't hunt, so it's a bit inappropriate for her to come to Mountain Zumro specifically to keep Cole company."

After Sylvia finished speaking, Cole looked disgusted, and even the people around them began to discuss. They all thought that Rory had followed Cole to Mountain Zumro.

The Alphas and Lunas around knew little about what happened between Cole and Rory. Rory wasn't Luna the Wolf Pack after her divorce, so it would be a little inappropriate if she kept pestering her ex-husband.

"Bullshit!" Nicki was very angry and wanted to argue with Sylvia.

"Sorry, you guys are wrong. I did come here to hunt." Rory tugged Nicki's sleeve to stop her. Then, she smiled at Sylvia and Cole.

"Not only am I good at hunting, but I'm a skilled hunter. You can watch me if you don't believe me." She then skillfully loaded her shotgun.

At that moment, the crowd suddenly fell silent. All they could hear was the soft sound of footsteps.

King Blake, who had just arrived at the hunting ground, smiled at Rory and walked towards her.

"Here you go, this is the latest model of gun. I'm looking forward to watching you hunt." He pulled out a new shotgun that his Beta had prepared for him and handed it to Rory.

"Mate…"
