Chapter 656 - WHY SHOULD I GO WITH YOU?

"Because you will need to see this to know Jedrek better." she answered Lilac. She shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. "Do you think the Alpha king will do your bidding without you knowing anything about him? You have to try a different approach, right?"

Frankly speaking, Violet herself had no idea what Maximus intended to do. There was something with this mysterious secret tunnel. Violet was sent by Maximus to persuade Lilac to get into that secret tunnel, when in reality even she had never stepped her feet on this tunnel.

To think about it again, she would be in great trouble if Jedrek found out about this. But, Maximus promised her something that she couldn\'t refuse in exchange for her service. The witch realized that this was a dangerous gamble. But after calculating things out, it seemed to her that she could get more of the advantages than the downsides of it. Thus, she decided to agree with Maximus\'s offer.

She thought that yes, definitely Jedrek would get mad once he finds out about it. But it wouldn\'t last long until he asked for her company again. Violet firmly believed in the relationship between her and Jedrek. The decades that they spent together was the fundamental of her reasoning for this matter. Thus she was strongly confident with that.

"Where is Maximus?" Lilac narrowed her eyes.

"Not long ago he just got a mission from Jedrek, so he won\'t be around for a while," said Violet. Maximus was away on a mission. Violet could read it from his vicious grin on his face where he was going. He was ordered by Jedrek to go on a hunt for his brother, Kace Donovan, again. But the whole truth about Maximus\'s whereabouts was something that she didn\'t need to share with Lilac.

On the other hand, Lilac didn\'t move at all, contemplating her choices. And then, she decided what was best in her current situation. "Show me the way." She was not proud of her decision. After putting the choices to her consideration, the probability of getting closer to a progress was high. Besides, even before Violet came, she was thinking about going anyway, and meant to ask Maximus about it.

==============

"Come here," Violet waved her hand at Lilac, wanting her to follow her. While tip-toeing their way to this secret place and trying not to be seen by anyone, Lilac enjoyed the scenery behind the lined up huge windows on her right side.

She was immersed with the beautiful sight of trees, and the small garden that could be seen from there. They were glittering in the midday sun with chirping birds that perched on the branches. She couldn\'t help herself but to imagine herself lying on her back, bathed under the sunshine and the clear sky.

What else could she do? She grew up in that kind of environment, so it was only natural for her to be fond of it. Liking what she was seeing, Lilac made sure to remind herself next time to visit that small garden, since she was not under restriction to roam around the castle. Besides, that garden wasn\'t the part of the forbidden place that Tordoff had mentioned before.

"Jedrek is not in this quarter and I have to get rid of your scent here, or else, both of us will get into trouble." Violet grumbled as they climbed the trees.

Lilac rolled her eyes, "If you\'re that afraid that he will find out about this, you shouldn\'t push your luck by inviting me here. What if he won\'t be as forgiving as that time when you invited me for breakfast?"

The witch glanced at Lilac from over her shoulder, she gave her a nasty look. "Actually, I can\'t wait to receive his punishment." She winked at her.

Lilac\'s wittiness was not to be underestimated, the girl was sharp enough to pick up the subtle innuendo in the way Violet answered it. "Whatever," she muttered under her breath. "How do you know he\'s not here, anyway?" Although Lilac decided to go on with Violet\'s plan, still the idea of being caught red-handed during the sneak in was problematic to her.

"His habit." She turned right when they had reached the top of the stairs. "He will not be near his chamber around this time."

"His chamber?" Lilac caught up with her. Suddenly, the witch walked way faster than before, practically Lilac had to jog, trying to catch up with her pace.

"There, his chamber." Violet was pointing to the door at the end of the hallway. "Why? You want to go inside?" The witch wink at Lilac.

"So that you can run to Jedrek and tell him that I barge into his room?" Lilac raised her eyebrows. "No, thanks."

"You are quite witty." Violet chuckled.

"If you meant it as a compliment, then thanks, I\'m flattered," said Lilac sarcastically.

After an awkward joke between the two women, Violet led Lilac to a grand room. It was a library.

"So, the secret door is supposed to be here?" Lilac looked at her surroundings, where row after row of neatly lined up books were placed. Needless to say, the library was sublime. The huge glass window that was covering one part of the room would only make it even more majestic. "A very typical place where you\'ll find some secret doors." Lilac jeered.

On the other hand, Violet didn\'t respond to Lilac\'s remark. She was busy running her fingers on the bookshelf, trying to find something.

"What now? So, you don\'t even know where the secret door is?" Lilac yawned, acting like she was getting bored of waiting. It was obvious that Violet had never even been to this so-called secret place. If she had, she should\'ve been able to find the door right away.

"Shut up!" The witch snapped at the guardian angel. Knowing that the witch was now annoyed, Lilac chuckled helplessly.

Finding the entrance way into the secret place took her longer than she expected. It was her first time too. Maximus\'s instruction the other night was the only thing that she relied on.

"How long do I have to wait?" Lilac leaned her back against the bookshelf, while staring at her nails. She was bored of waiting.

Meanwhile, Violet was in the other row of the bookshelf, grumbling while struggling to find the way in.

"Shut—" Violet couldn\'t finish what she was going to say, she didn\'t have the chance to. She screamed on top of her lungs with all her might. A loud sound of falling books followed after her scream.

Lilac was startled by the sound. Alarmed, she ran towards the witch without a second thought. "What happened?"

However, what she was about to find was a horrendous sight. There, Jedrek was holding Violet by her neck, raising her up high that the witch\'s foot was far off the ground. There was no trace of emotion in his face, not even a sign of mercy in his eyes when Violet was struggling to break free from his grip. She was pounding, and scratching, but the Alpha king didn\'t even budge.

The witch\'s face turned all red by the time Lilac got there near them.
