The Mind-Reading Mate Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me novel Chapter 605

Chapter 605: The Palace on the Brink of Destruction (I)

The Emperor only laughed. "You should worry less about me and more about what is coming for this place."

With those words, he suddenly threw himself out of the open window.

The moment the palace stopped trembling, Edmund rushed toward the window and looked outside. However, to his surprise, there was no sign of the Emperor anywhere.

He wasn’t falling through the sky, nor was his body lying on the ground below. It was as if he had simply vanished into thin air.

And that alone was enough to prove that the Emperor had somehow gained access to an ability that should have remained sealed inside the evil chest.

"Your Majesties!"

The door to the guest room suddenly swung open as Solene and Callen hurried inside. They had barely managed to regain their balance after the violent shaking, but neither of them seemed to care about their own condition.

Primrose immediately turned toward them. Before either of them could ask what had happened, she quickly gave her orders. "Lady Solene, please check on Lady Nina and Lorelle! Make sure they’re both safe!"

She then looked at Callen. "Sir Callen, please make sure the women are safe and help them evacuate. Guide them and everyone else out of the palace as quickly as possible."

Her expression grew serious. "This place is no longer safe."

Solene and Callen exchanged glances for a moment before Solene finally spoke. "But Your Majesty, you’re our priority," Solene protested. "We can’t just leave you here. We’ll take care of everyone else once we’ve made sure you’re somewhere safe."

"There is no safe place for me, Lady Solene." Primrose slowly rose to her feet, her voice calm despite everything that had just happened. "Even if I hide underground or run somewhere far away from the palace, the Emperor will still come looking for me. It doesn’t matter where I go. He’ll find me eventually."

Solene opened her mouth, wanting to argue, but Primrose continued before she could say anything.

"My safe place is with my husband."

There wasn’t even the slightest hesitation in her voice.

After everything she and Edmund had been through, Primrose understood one thing better than anyone else.

If they were separated and forced to fight alone, they might end up repeating the same painful fate as before.

She didn’t want that.

She didn’t want to lose him again, and she certainly didn’t want either of them to suffer through another lifetime of regret.

But if they stayed together and fought side by side, things would be different.

Even if luck was no longer on their side, even if they failed to change their fate, at least neither of them would have to face the end alone.

And if this truly was the end of their story, the end of everything they had fought so hard to protect, then so be it.

This time, whatever happened, they would face it together.

Meanwhile, Solene and Callen still looked reluctant to leave.

[This is ridiculous!] Callen thought angrily. [I’ve been training so hard just to protect Her Majesty, but now that she’s actually in danger, I’m not even allowed to stay by her side?! What’s the point of all that training, then?! Is it because I’m still not strong enough?!]

Solene, on the other hand, had a different thought. [I don’t understand what’s going on, but... Her Majesty looks as though she’s already prepared herself for the worst.]

There was something about Primrose’s calm expression that made Solene feel uneasy. It was almost as if the Queen already knew what was coming and had accepted it.

"What are you waiting for?" Primrose asked when she noticed that neither of them had moved. "Go, now. Before the entire palace collapses to the ground."
