Chapter 386
Chapter 386:
“I bet you wouldn’t say this if you were on the high side,” someone snickered.
A full-blown argument ensued from this, one that caused me a migraine.
“Enough!” I hit my hand on the table, shutting them up. “Alpha Jaxen, Alpha Miguel, I’ve heard your complaints. Now I’ll need some time to go over this and come up with the best solution. So, I implore you: go home and wait for me. No more bloodshed, otherwise the consequences will be immediate p>
The meeting finally came to an end, but the burden was not lifted off my shoulders. Coming up with a solution would be difficult. If I were to do the right thing, then it was only right for Miguel to reclaim the land. But in what world was that fair?
My head was aching. I needed Lyric.
I went to her room but couldn’t find her in. I tried calling her line, only to discover it was left in the room. Where did she go without her phone? I started making calls, trying to see if anyone knew where she was, but nobody was with her.
These days, I tended to act irrationally when Lyric was involved, especially when there was even the slightest chance she might be in danger.
Information reached me from the gate that they’d seen her driving out. I didn’t waste any time as I headed out, driving my car to look for her.
Jace and Kael joined in the search in a separate car, but apparently, we didn’t even need to go far. We found her seated by the roadside, at a bus station. I alighted from the car and ran to her, my heart hurting from the steep descent into deep relief.

I sprang to my feet when I saw Jaris approaching. How did he find me so fast? I was really hoping I’d spend some alone time here.
“Hey.” My voice came out fragile despite my effort.
“What are you doing here, Lyric? Why didn’t you take your phone with you, at least? Do you know how worried I was?” he snapped as he looked around, as if searching for any sign of danger.

“I—I’m sorry,” I said, shaking my head, my eyes dropping to the floor. “I didn’t think you’d be done with the meeting so soon p>
He gave me a long stare and seemed a little calmer. “Why are you out here alone? It’s late p>
My heart ached from the recollection of the incident that led me here. Just thinking about it brought tears to my eyes.
Luna Isolde knocking on my door, her hateful eyes and venomous words: “It was a huge mistake letting you get mated to my son. I want you out, Lyric. Take your cursed child and leave p>
“Are you okay?” Jaris came closer, holding my arm.
I tried to force a smile. “Of course. I just wanted to get some air. I was… honestly bored of being there alone p>
