Lycan Prince Matteo novel Chapter 72

Third Person

They went back to the Crimson Pack later. They are all speechless and can’t think straight because of the revelations that Marcus, the Lycan rogue, claiming to be Matteo’s father, told them. They couldn’t believe, especially Calvin and James, that Rapha had been lying to them all this time. They never expected him to know so much about the past story, as he was always quiet. The only time that they saw them talking was whenever he was with the previous queen, but they didn’t think anything suspicious because King Marco always asked his mate to go to him and do some palace business.

“Let’s just call this a day,” Freya said. She knew how down everyone was because of the things that they needed to take in one go. She couldn't believe that the palace had so many secrets. She looked at Camilla and found her head down, while Alec was holding her hand.

"Camilla, none of these things should affect you. You know nothing about it,” she told her.

“But my uncle—" she replied, but was stopped by her.

“I already told you that none of these things should affect you because you know nothing about them. Rapha can explain why he did what he did, and knowing him, he has reasons for it.”

“Do you believe that rogue?” Matteo asked. He wanted to get mad at his mate, but he knew that she had reason to believe Marcus.

“You heard him; if you want to confirm what he said, why not call Rapha now?” Matteo sighed because he too knew that the man might tell the truth. He was confused and curious. If he had not believed him 100%, he wouldn’t be acting that way.

“I will do that. I was thinking whether I should ask him to come here or should we go back to the palace.” Matteo replied, “I want to hear it from him since he was the one who informed that rogue about me being his son. Whether mom told him that or he just assumed it," he added.

“Your Highness,” Camilla said, so he looked at her. “I don't think you're going to believe what I am about to say because I am his niece. But growing up, I used to be with the previous queen every time she came to see Uncle Rapha. She would take care of me, and in between playing, she would tell me to never leave or doubt my uncle. She told me to support him in anything, no matter what,” she added.

“Are you telling me that you believe him?”

“I am telling you that, no matter what, I am going to stay with my uncle. Just as I promised the previous queen,” she replied, having her head down.

“Hey,” Freya said, trying to get his attention. “I know that this is hard for you. It was mind-blowing for me and us. And I couldn’t imagine how this impacted you. But you have to be at your wits. You have to think this over and measure the weight of every possible result of what you have decided to believe in," she continued. Matteo nodded his head and smiled sadly. “Whatever you believe, remember that I am here for you," she added.

“And we are too,” Calvin and James said in unison. Clay and Alec were both smiling. Ensuring that they are with him as well.

The following day, Matteo decided to call on Rapha. He didn’t want to let his dad know about what he had found out, so if he was certain, he wouldn’t be able to do anything to them just yet.

“I’m very sorry for not letting you know, Your Highness.” He said, “I tried to tell you many times, but I couldn’t take the risk of harming my niece either. So I decided to look after you and make sure that no harm will ever come to you.” he added.

“So, what that rogue told me was all true?"
