The king is now in Celine's chamber, where Axton, a small baby boy with golden hair, is already present. The three of them are alone, without any guards, so that no one can overhear their conversation.
“You shouldn’t have gone to Queen Kenna’s place. It’s very dangerous for you, especially since you’ve just given birth,” said King Raven as he examined the wound on his second wife’s leg. He took the medicine that the doctor had given him before entering Celine’s chamber.
“Queen Kenna invited me to come. How could I ignore the call from the Queen of the Wolf Kingdom, King Raven?”
“But you could have refused.” However, Celine suddenly changed the subject.
“Your Majesty, I have another piece of evidence regarding Queen Kenna’s child, which I mentioned earlier on the field,” King Raven tried to recall, then furrowed his brow in curiosity.
Celine the Concubine pulled a document from her dress and handed it to King Raven. King Raven took the document with trembling hands, reading it with eyes widening in shock. The document was the result of a secret blood test conducted by the court physician.
“The results show that Queen Kenna’s child has blood that does not match our royal lineage,” Celine explained in a flat voice.
King Raven’s face turned pale; he felt as though his world was crumbling.
“Who… who is the father?” King Raven asked in a barely audible voice.
Celine answered with a chilling smile.
“I have investigated, Your Majesty… and I have found evidence that the father of Queen Kenna’s child is…”
Celine paused for a moment, making King Raven even more curious.
“The child of another man, it’s not your blood, Your Majesty,” King Raven furrowed his brow.
“Impossible!”
“What do you mean, Celine? I was the first for Kenna because I was the one who took her virginity! I remember it clearly.” King Raven protested, as he had indeed shared sweet memories with Kenna.
“It’s possible that Princess Aria is the child of the man in prison, King Raven.” Celine’s concubine tried to prevent King Raven from siding with Queen Kenna in any way.
“Do you mean… Kevin?”
“Yes, who else? Even Aria doesn’t have golden hair like yours. If Aria is truly your biological daughter, she should have inherited the golden hair gene, especially since she’s a girl—girls usually inherit more genes from their fathers, don’t they, King Raven?” Celine tried to convince King Raven.
“Now that I think about it, what Celine said makes sense. Why doesn’t Aria have any of my genes? Could it be true that Princess Aria isn’t my daughter?” King Raven began to waver in his conviction.
“No, there must be an error in this document!” King Raven still couldn’t fully trust Celine. King Raven’s response made Celine a bit emotional, but she managed to hold back her anger.
“Don’t you see, King Raven…” Celine paused and picked up Axton, who was still sleeping soundly.
“The only one who is your bloodline is Ax. Princess Aria is not your bloodline at all. You must make me Queen, King Raven.”
“How could I possibly remove Queen Kenna, who has done so much for this kingdom?”
“Is that evidence not enough to depose Queen Kenna, Your Majesty? What else is needed?”
“It’s easy for you, but not for me, who has known and loved Queen Kenna for so long.” King Raven stood up from his seat. Meanwhile, Concubine Celine was overcome by her emotions.
“How long will you continue like this, Your Majesty? Will you wait until Axton is grown before removing Queen Kenna? I am the mother who can give birth to a child as you requested—one with golden hair—not Queen Kenna!” King Raven merely glanced briefly and quickly left Celine's presence.
.
After leaving Celine's presence, King Raven decided to daydream on a small bridge.
“It's impossible that Aria isn't my child, right? After all, I've always been with Kenna in this palace.” King Raven recalled his memories with Queen Kenna.
Flashback
When they first married, King Raven was overjoyed because he had finally won the heart of a kind-hearted wolf girl. Every night, they would stroll around the palace, sharing lighthearted jokes.
“Do you know why the moon is so far apart from the star over there?” (Pointing to the sky on the right)
“No, why?”
“Because, like us, they love each other but are separated by distance and fate,” Kenna opened her eyes wide.
“Aren't we one palace and have always been together all this time? Hahahaa,”
“Wait for my full answer, Queen Kenna,”
“Hahaha, all right, King Raven, so what?”
“If I could choose, I would move the stars in the sky closer to the moon...”
“And I would move the entire kingdom to bring you closer to my heart.”
“Hahaha, you're so silly, Your Majesty. How could you possibly be strong enough to lift a star?”
“Using the wolf's strength I possess, perhaps?” King Raven raised both his hands, and Kenna immediately caught both of them.
“There's no need to catch the stars; if you can, just catch me.” Queen Kenna then ran off, leaving King Raven still smiling in that spot.
Flashback END
When thinking about Queen Kenna, Celine's voice from earlier echoed in his mind.
'But Princess Aria isn't your blood relative, King Raven.'
“But what's happening to us now, Kenna?” King Raven whispered to himself.
“Have you betrayed me?”
“ATTACK!!!”
TRASH!
Suddenly, someone attacked King Raven from behind. King Raven transformed into a massive werewolf with a deafening roar. Kenna heard it from the Main Palace and decided to meet King Raven immediately, disregarding the guards holding her back. She ran toward where King Raven was being attacked and joined the battle.
“That's King Raven's voice...” Queen Kenna murmured. Her gaze fixed on the lightning-like flashes in the sky.
“I have to go there!”
“Queen Kenna! You're still injured!” Zyra shouted, still worried about Queen Kenna's condition.
“Goodness, why is she so unconcerned about her condition?” Zyra was amazed by Queen Kenna.
_
Kenna arrived at the place where King Raven was attacked.
“I must help King Raven!” Kenna transformed into a wolf and aided King Raven by riding on the back of the massive wolf.
“RARRWWRR!!!!!!”
King Raven looked at Kenna, who had transformed into the same form as himself and channeled his power from behind. The green-colored power ignited and attacked the werewolves who had transformed earlier with an extraordinary explosion.
DUAR!
BRUGH!
They immediately fled in fear after witnessing King Raven's immense power, which was not easily defeated. The King Raven returned to human form, as did Kenna. However, strangely, Kenna's face was pale from the wounds she had sustained on her back after fighting Celine.
“Queen Kenna, what's wrong?”
“If you truly do not love me, it does not matter, Your Majesty. But please, take care of Aria, for she is your daughter.” Queen Kenna fainted. King Raven was also startled to see blood flowing from his back. He immediately examined it. Sure enough, there was a gaping wound.
“KENNNAA!!!”
