Chapter 10

• Marcus’ POV
• We were waiting for the king in the throne room. I grew tired of him since I realized he was not accomplishing anything significant. He’s probably fucking one of those pointless women as these unfortunate souls wait. They have no say. In the end, he chose them to be on the council, and thus they followed his orders. They will lose their heads if they oppose him.
• He has grown frigid ever since he was informed he would meet his mate 600 years ago and did not. I gazed around the room at the men seated. I could see how impatient they were, but there was nothing they could do. He embodied the law.
