Reborn To Reject My Regretful Mate For The King Chapter 23
They were the same injuries Magnus had once inflicted on him.
Stripped of his stolen crown and the support of Southridge Pack, Magnus died in his last, desperate assault.
For helping Adrian track the royal safe house and contact the rebels, Julian was thrown into a high-security Royal Guard detention unit.
After Adrian was stabilized, he was confined to a medical observation ward.
Gavin needed his prophetic ability to root out the last remnants of the rebellion.
He told me, “Before, I didn’t care how long I lived.”
“Now that you’re here, I find myself wanting a few more years.”
But after we returned to Royal Castle, he gave me no public title or status.
Then, a few days later, Evelyn arrived in the capital and filed a public complaint with the Royal Council.
She claimed I had already entered a private mating pledge with Julian and had been coerced into living with Gavin, making me unfit to represent the Crown.
When the Council convened an emergency hearing, I stood behind a glass partition at the back of the chamber.
Gavin listened to every accusation without a flicker of emotion.
Then he had the Royal Guard unlock the partition and escort me before the full Council.
He placed a control terminal in my hands, one with the highest level of royal authority.
On the screen were Evelyn’s Pack identity records, communication privileges, and a detention authorization form.
“She’s your sister,” Gavin said. “You decide what happens to her.”
