  I sighed and sat down, having Eros here will just make the conversation really awkward and hard for me and I know that I can definitely hurt him really bad just by telling him all the truth that I know.

  I gazed at Eros still not removing my nasty stare at him, he looked at me and then he twitched his lips, he seemed annoyed just because I look at him like as if he's a very nasty person "Not because you became the Alpha's mate means I will bow down to you, no madame because that will never happen to you even in your dreams" He said proudly, I sighed and shrugged.

  Same old nasty and childish Beta who just believes that he is someone so high.

  "Eros listen to me carefully and drop that freaking childish attitude of yours, you are the Beta anyway. We're not here to fight and see who is more superior and higher, we are not here to debate on who should laugh and who should kneel, as Yvan had said earlier we are here to fix a freaking big problem and you Yvan---" I said and looked at Yvan.

  "You should have informed me first that you will have Eros in this conversation. You yourself told me that this is a very sensitive and important case" I said in a very serious manner scolding him.

  "I was shocked after seeing the Beta here" I said as I stare at Eros.

  "I was in a hurry I'm sorry" Yvan said defending himself.

  "But moving on, you're right we actually need Eros here" I said.

  I sighed and looked at both of them, yes maybe Yvan and Eros are the ones who can help me decide what to do and what should be done, they are the Delta and the Beta anyway and their decisions will be for Luna Canidae and will always be for Luna Canidae.

  I've been debating with my self whether I tell this to the Alpha because I know that he will understand me because I am his mate but the thought that he is the Alpha and he also needs to protect Luna Canidae using his own methods makes me back down and own the problem I'm carrying right now.

  "Before I start and tell you everything that I know and tell you everything that I hide, I have to ask you Yvan" I said as I stare at Yvan.

  "Can you tell me the freaking logic of the oracle and the cardinal? Can you tell me the freaking reason why the existence of the oracle means that the cardinal is fake? Because I don't understand and I can't see the connection between them" I asked. As I spit those questions, Eros seemed interested in the topic that he suddenly focused himself to us.

  "Wait what the hell is going on here? I mean why is the oracle and the cardinal included here?" Eros asked and looked at me with his confused and questioning eyes.

  "And why the hell are you asking that question? Don't tell me that its the problem that you are referring to earlier and don't fucking tell me that you saw the oracle and that the cardinal is a fake? What the hell is happening here?" Eros asked still npt removing his confused eyes.

  "Eros I think you should be the one to answer the mate's question since she's still learning everything about the Hybrid Empire. Can you answer her and tell the mate the reason why the oracle and the cardinal should not exist together" Yvan said as he try to toss the question to Eros.

  "The reason why?" Eros asked and looked at me who is still not getting the grasp of the situation "Simple, its because the oracle is also a cardinal" Eros answered making me confused as I raise my eye brows because of confusion? The oracle is also a freaking what?

  "Wait whoa whoa whoa what? Stop Eros, what do you mean by that? There are two cardinals in Luna Canidae is that it? So why is Misty the only one who is introduced and what about the other one, what about the oracle?" I asked still having my eye brows raised.

  "No of course not, that's not the case" Eros said and shifted his gaze to me.

  "Of course the cardinal is just one and that is none other than Misty its just that to make the Alpha stronger and faster than his normal pace he needs to drink the essence from the Cardinal's fresh blood and the mixed blood of the cardinal and the oracle that has been preserved for many months" Eros explained as he gaze at me.

  I nodded trying to understand the system "So it means that the Alpha will not literally eat the Cardinal but he will just have to drink the fresh blood and the mixed blood of the Cardinal. So then if that's the case why does the cardinal has to die when the only thing that the Alpha needs is just the cardinal's blood" I asked showing them my confusion.

  "Because the Alpha needs to drink all of the Cardinal's blood to regain all the strength that he needs and as for the Oracle's case. The oracle and the Cardinal can never exist in one place at one time because they are like the case of doppel gangers" Eros answered trying to explain the absurd situation using another absurd situation.

  "They say that if doppel gangers exist in one place at the same time, it will be tragic. That situation is the same with the cardinal and the oracle because once the cardinal has been recognized by the hybrids and by Luna Canidae, the oracle needs to kill her self so that we can preserve her blood mixed with some of the cardinal's blood. That's the core reason why Lucy, our generation's oracle had to die for us to be able to preserve her blood" Eros said answering my freaking question why an oracle and a cardinal shouldn't be alive at the same time.

  I nod, so that's the reason why Yvan figured out why Misty is a fake one just because Lucy is alive.

  "Wait" I said as I remember something in my memory.

  I smirked and looked at Yvan with my creepy smirk "So if that's the case, does it mean that you freaking lied to me Yvan? You told me that he had to die just for her brothers? Does that also means that the King and the Alpha are not real brothers?" I asked showing him the face of a totally confused person.

  Eros laughed because of what I said and then he looked at me "Stop acting like you're so naive and clueless madame, you almost tricked me with your 'wannabe naive' character. In this time and generation, especially our generation, will someone kill themselves just to teach his or her brothers or siblings a lesson that they shouldn't fight? That's too lame madame, very lame and unrealistic" Eros said mocking me because of what I said.

  I raised my eye brows and crossed my arms to show him that I'm not liking he's disobedience and attitude.

  "But madame its still true that the King and the Alpha are brothers and the Oracle is their sister" Yvan said defending him self from the freaking lies he told me.

  "Now its your turn to speak madame, what did the Oracle told you? What did you and the Oracle talked about?" Yvan said with his eyes straight to mine.

  "Wait what did you just say Yvan? The oracle? What do you mean by that?!" Eros asked trying to have a grasp of the situation. Well he should try to grasp the situation and adopt the truth for him to be able to help us and me.

  "The mate met the oracle? How is that even freaking possible?" Eros asked as he look at me with all those confused and questioning eyes.

  I looked at Eros and nod "What you are thinking right now Eros is correct, I met Lucy who is the oracle and she even talked to me about a private matter which means that the Cardinal right now is fake and the mixture of their blood is not real" I said as I stare at him, I know it will sound absurd and nosense to him but what I I told him is true.

  I will not gain anything from lying anyway.

  "Wait what?! What the fuck is this girl saying--" Before Eros could even finish what he's saying, Yvan stopped him because of his profanity.

  "Hush Eros your manners, she's already the Alpha's mate thus disrespecting her is like disrespecting the Alpha and you might want to listen to her first before even reacting" Yvan said trying to calm Eros who is ready to spill the secrets that I'm sharing right now.

  "And mind you dear Beta who is second in command, we are in a library and so we should not raise our freaking voices here" I added.

  "We are here to make a solution not to create another problem, you are here because I need your help" I said as I gaze at him and then for a while I smirked.

  "But thinking about the information that I just said, shouldn't you be happy about the news? At least Misty is not the real Cardinal and so that means that she wi
ll live. Well its just that the only problem here is that its obviously treason and she will have to die" I said as I smirk making Eros almost lose his temper.

  "What the fuck--" Before he could even finish what he's about to say, I cut him up and continued speaking to spill out what I need to say and point out what I think.

  "But before you lose your temper and hit me listen to me first Eros" I said, I was about to speak again when for the nth time, he cut what I'm about to say again.

  Wow this conversation is really productive because instead of listening to each other, we cut each other, how funny thinking that the Beta and I can never really become friends because we are both different.

  "How the fuck am I supposed to help---"

  "I am starting to lose my temper Eros, I am freaking lengthening my patience for you but it seems like you're getting nastier and now before I lose my temper, you should listen to what I have to say" I said in a very commanding voice trying to tame him because I am the Alpha's mate anyway and so whether he like it or he like it, he should obey me.

  He kept quiet for a while and before he could even say anything again, I started talking and gave my concern.

  "Since Yvan already learned about my secret and the burden that I am having right now and since you are already here I decided to trust the both of you" I said as I stare at both of them.

  "Since I decided to trust the both of you, I will also expect the two of you to help me with this problem because this is also for Luna Canidae, this is to save Luna Canidae from any future dangers" I said as I gaze at Yvan and Eros who is now listening to me.

  "Yesteday, the Alpha had me monitored using the Delta and while Yvan is monitoring me for a freaking whole day, he found out a secret that I have been hiding for a very long time now" I said and looked at Yvan who is not saying anything.

  "While following me all day, Yvan found out that I am the Rebellion Empire's Queen, more like puppet Queen" I said as I stare at Eros observing what will be his reaction after listening to my confession.

  And yes of course as expected he was so shocked because of the news, he even raised his voice but after realizing that we are in a library with some students, he immediately toned down his voice.

  "Whoa whoa whoa what the fuck did you just say? I am hoping that you'll say its a joke, madame you know that this can't freaking happen, you are literally the Alpha's mate--- THE ALPHA'S MATE" Eros said emphasizing the words as he gaze at me.

  "Madame you are the Alpha's mate so how could you even be the Rebellion Empire's Queen, this is a freaking big joke isn't it?" Eros asked trying to make himself believe that this really is a big joke and he's not even trying to absorb the situation.

  I sighed and looked at him trying to convince him that what he's hearing right now is the truth.

  "I was first a Queen before being the mate and I know what you two are thinking. Of course I never betrayed the Alpha and I will never betray him, I remained as a Queen because I can never escape Serafin, he is threatening me with my Guardian's life" I expalined as I sigh.

  I looked at both Serafin and Yvan who seemed absorbed to my story "Serafin, the King told me to be the Alpha's servant to gain information and see any weaknesses in the Hybrid Empire but you both know that my time as a servant is just limited and its not that long and so I never got any useful information from the Hybrid Empire since my role as a servant was too short" I said trying to make them understand my situation.

  "I never even had the chance to get any useful information" I added as I continue my story.

  "Being Serafin's puppet Queen and dog I learned that the Cardinal that the Hybrid Empire has right now is a fake one planted by Serafin himself to trick the Hybrid Empire which means that the real Cardinal is still outside roaming around freely and still hasn't been recognized and I know that Serafin is still looking for the real Cardinal right now" I said as I drink my water.

  "S-so why didn't you tell us about what you know? Why did you kept it for a very ling time" Yvan asked me as he focus himself to me.

  "Simple because just like the Rebellion Empire, I don't really trust the Hybrid Empire. That time, my only ally was Misty, the fake Cardinal. Since both Misty and I knows the secret of each other, we hang on to each other and we both agreed not to choose sides because we both know that we're just puppets of both the Rebellion and Hybrid Empire" I said explaining to Eros and Yvan the reason why we are victims and not enemies.

  I sighed "And now recently, since I became the Alpha's mate, I obviously became a very powerful personality in Luna Canidae since I became literally the first lady of Luna Canidae" I said.

  "Because of that, because of being the first lady of Luna Canidae I unintentionally put both Misty and Lara's life in danger. Yesterday, I was forced in Serafin's territory and commanded me to stay loyal to him in exchange of Misty and Lara' s lives" I said causing Eros to react harshly again of course.

  "W-what happened to Misty then? Is she okay right now, she is not badly hurt right? I mean even if she is the fake Cardinal we should still--"

  "I know what you want to say Eros and don't worry because she's okay its just that she received tortures from the Rebellion Empire especially from Serafin and I apologize for that" I said. After saying that, I saw how Eros formed a fist in his hands.

  I sighed because of that, he can't even show his anger right now since he believes that we still do not know about his secret affair with Misty, well I'm the one who only knows about their secret affair while Yvan doesn't even know that they are both dating each other again.

  "So what happened?' Yvan asked still having his focus about the situation.

  I sighed and looked at them "Well unfortunately I had to say yes so that he would spare and free Lara and Misty. Actually its not easy to harm Lara and Misty because one is a Cardinal while the other one is an important person. The King used our weakness to tame us" I explained as I look at them.

  Because of what I had said, they seem more confused "But wait why is Lara involved here anyway? She's just a human civilian and she has nothing to do with the Hybrid Empire and the Rebellion Empire, the King won't involve her here just because you are her friend, there must be another reason" Yvan said as he shows me his confuse stare.

  I bit my lower lip and formed a fist in my hands becuse of the thought that I can literally destroy Lara if I spit all informatin that I know about her.

  "You know something? What's wrong? Is there another thing that you did not told us?" Eros asked.

  I sighed and looked at both of them "Listen to me carefully Yvan and Eros, I chose to trust the both of you so I ask you that what ever comes out of my mouth please, listen and understand me first before assuming anything" I said as I seriously stare at them waiting for their response.

  "What's wrong? Why are you being so serious suddenly?" Yvan asked.

  "I need your response Yvan and Eros" I said as both of them nod their heads.

  I sighed "Lara, she was used as a bait by the King because she is the leader of the Hunters, Lara is not just a human civilian but also the leader of the hunters" I said leaving Eros and Yvan speechess but I can see in their eyes the shock because of what they heard.

  I received different responses from them, while Eros is reacting violently because of shock, Yvan is staying quiet while showing his shock with his eyes widen.

  "How funny and ironic to hear that the ruler of Luna Canidae has been hiding the leader of the hunters? This is a very funny and absurd situation. Don't you think that this is just being too much?" Eros said with all bitterness and sarcasm in his words.

  I looked at him but he looked back at me with his mocking eyes "Well I'm sorry for mocking you and giving you a look of disappointment madame. I just find your situation really absurd because more than being the Rebellion Empire's Queen isn't too much that you also know that our Cardinal is a fake one and to make the situation freaking worse, you are also hiding the identity of the leader of the Hunters" Eros added and shook his head while showing h
is disapppointed reaction.

  "We've been looking for their leader for a very long time and we even conducted an inspection in Luna Canidae University but she managed to escape us together with the other hunters because you helped them?" He said showing me his anger using is eyes and sharp tongue.

  He chuckled as he stare at me "I can't do this, the Alpha needs to know everything that you did. Even if you are the mate, this is still a clear act of treason" Eros said, he was about to stand up but I stopped him by speaking again.

  "Because Lara was my bestfriend and I was just a servant that time so what do you think should I prioritize first? Of course I will help my friend more than having her exposed" I said and looked at him.

  "You want to tell the Alpha about all of this? Go ahead, I won't stop you and I don't intend to stop you but you don't really have to tell him everything because I will also tell him everything myself and don't worry because I will never betray the Alpha" I said as I pause.

  "But you know what Eros? I let you sit in this table even though I never invited you in this private conversation because I trust you--- I believed that you can help me with this" I said as I stare at him straight in his eyes.

  "I am not really asking for your opinion here Eros and I will never ask about what you think of me, I just let you sit here because I admit that I need your help and because it is your freaking job to help me, I am your ruler anyway and you are the second in command in Luna Canidae" I said still not removing my gaze to him.

  "Ruler?!" He said in a very sarcastic and mocking tone.

  "Wow and now you call your self a ruler when in fact you made lots of things that is against the rules of Hybrid Empire, you don't even freaking care about Luna Canidae and all that you think of right now is your self and how you will escape this mess that you made" Eros said.

  I smirked because of what he said "I must admit, you're right, I hate Luna Canidae. I freaking despise Luna Canidae and I regretted coming here. Yeah I shouldn't have come here in the first place because coming here just made my life harder and tougher putting my granny's life in danger" I said adding a tone of bitterness in my voice.
