The Alpha Prince And His Silver Lone Wolf - Chapter 490
[-In The Throne Room-]
Days after the tension between the other Alphas and the Alpha King in the royal court took place.
All Alphas returned to their wolf packs.
Even the supporters of the Alpha King returned to their own territory.
Due to the increasing tension between the Alpha King and the faction of the opposition which was led by Alpha Alister, a compromise was decided.
Since everyone has agreed to investigate things in a more diplomatic way and less violence.
Both sides compromised to leave it to the committee which was established to investigate the issue regarding the failed assassination attempt on the life of the Alpha King and the failed attempt to accuse Prince Alarick of such crimes he did not commit.
Upon declaring the innocence of Prince Alarick and taking him off as a suspect, things became more tensed around the royal palace.
Because King Alcyd was obvious on his disconcertment towards Alpha Alister and his wife, Laura.
Emphasizing them as his primary suspect.
Keeping Alpha Alister detained in the basement of the hospital while his wife was under lockdown in her own private chambers.
Only King Alcyd and some of his executive officers were allowed to enter the throne room.
Princess Shiveena prohibited anyone to enter the throne room except for those requested by the Alpha King.
“Are you sure about this?” Garrett asked their Alpha King.
“Yes!” King Alcyd’s quick response to his best friend.
“We are not sure if he will pledge allegiance to you and will follow through your reign.” Garrett was worried about the intentions of Alpha Berrick.
King Alcyd sighed in frustration.
“I have no choice but to trust him. He is the father of my mate. End of story …”
“We understand that she is our Luna’s father but you are the Alpha King. You need to weigh in things accordingly. For the best interest of the kingdom. Not yours …”
Theo was surprised that Garrett had the courage, to be honest with their Alpha King.
King Alcyd did not want to argue with his best friend.
There were too many things on his mind.
One problem after another.
It was never like before.
Where he must only worry for the Golden Moon Pack and his own mate.
But now … he must worry and think about the welfare of the entire kingdom.
…
He tried to divert the conversation with Garrett.
…
Things became more problematic for him.
“How is the investigation so far?” King Alcyd asked his Beta.
Beta Garrett and Theo looked at each other before responding to their Alpha King.
“So far, there is no concrete evidence that could lead the assassination to Laura. But according to Magdeline, those who set the explosion committed suicide when they activated the explosion within the hospital.” Garrett elaborated to the Alpha King.
“No outsider can enter the royal hospital. How come they were able to enter the royal hospital without being stopped?” King Alcyd further asked.
“According to Magdeline, she tried to perform a spiritual ceremony with the other -Light Witches- and they were able to identify the suspects of the explosion … and …” Garrett hesitated to go further because of what they found out.
“And what? Garrett!” King Alcyd demanded for answers.
It made Theo and Garrett nervous because this would spark something chaotic amongst the wolf packs.

[-In Laura’s Private Chamber-]
After the announcement of the Alpha King, Amber panicked.
Fearing for their lives.
Because she knew who was responsible for it.
Including the failed assassination attempt on the life of the Alpha King.
Alpha Alister was already detained which only means one thing …
“Didn’t I tell you? Once these schemes of yours go out of hand, you will put us all in a precarious position. Especially our younger brother.” Amber worriedly told her older sister.
“The suspects are dead. He will never find out the truth. I made sure of it!” Laura reassured her younger sister.
“Actually, there is a way for them to find out even the suspects are dead.” Freya nervously informed Laura.
It made Laura and Amber turn their attention towards Freya.
“What do you mean … a way to find out? They cannot bring back the dead! It is forbidden in their practices as -Light Witches- to bring back the dead.” Laura’s voice had hints of frustration.
“Actually… they can reveal the identity of the dead through a spiritual ceremony without bringing them back to life. And they compel the spirits to disclose their identity. Which can vary on the level of power of a light witch.” Freya explained.
She continued, “And Magdeline is more than capable of doing so. She is a powerful light witch.”
…
Amber looked more worried than ever.
“They will find out! If they perform that ceremony … it will all lead to us …” Amber pointed out.
“NO! I ordered for the transfer of the corpse of those who were utilized for Alcyd’s assassination before the explosion happened. They will have nothing to use.” Laura tried to explain.
“But not the burned corpse whom you sacrificed for the explosion which they could use to link it to us … Have you thought of that.” Amber reminded her older sister.
This was something that Laura overlooked.
-Spiritual Magic- was something she did not expect to be used in disclosing her involvement in the unfortunate incident.
“Then we must eliminate Magdeline! Before they can perform that damn ceremony.” Laura blurted something shocking and absurd for Amber and Freya.
“Have you gone mad, sister? Magdeline is the Grand White Witch, we do not have the ability to defeat her.” Amber was astonished at her older sister’s sudden plan.
…
Freya looked more nervous because Laura began to think more desperate and more sinister schemes.
“I-I do not think it’s a good idea to go against the Grand White Witch. She is more powerful than any of us combined.” Freya gave her own advice to Laura.
Before Laura could add some more suggestions, the arrival of King Alcyd was announced.
As the door opened, the Alpha King was escorted by his royal guards.
“Your Highness!” they uttered in surprise.
