Found by the Lycan King by Natalie Winter novel Chapter 75

Chapter 75 

I turned around so fast that I thought I would break my neck. And I was relieved to see Drusilla come walking through the 

main entrance. 

I sagged in relief and muttered, “I was beginning to think that you had left me for good” 

Drusilla pushed her hands into the pockets of her pants and gave me a smug look. “Not in this life, at least” 

I shook my head and then she let go of her earlier attitude and came running towards me. I pulled her into a hug as she patted me on my back. 

“Mr. Lycan King, I have some news for you” 

I went rigid at that. Drusilla had been gone for a long time, looking for a solution to break my curse while I managed the kingdom and the pack. 

“We can talk about it later. Right now I am ravenous” 

She muttered and dragged me to the dining table. 

“Maria!!” Dru shouted and Maria came outside the kitchen again, smiling at her. “Just right in time for lunch” 

“Isn’t it a bit early for lunch?” I asked, but my best friend ignored me. 

Drusilla gave her a bright smile, and we walked towards the dining table. I was not really in the mood to eat, but with her around, I would force some food down my throat. 

Drusilla was the one person outside of my pack that I completely trusted and knew that she would never, ever betray my 

trust. 

My pack and the other alphas were honor bound to save me, but she wasn’t. So I felt a different kind of ease with her. 

While we both made our way towards the dining table, I chatted with her. 

“How was your journey?” 

Drusilla replied, “A little tiring and I am not sure if it was as rewarding as I hoped it to be” 

She tried to hide her disappointment, but I only gave her a reassuring smile. 

“We still have time, don’t worry” 

While we approached the dining table, Cynthia stepped out of the gym. She saw us and waved at Dru. 

“Hey, nice to see you again” 

Drusilla gave her a curt smile. “Hey” 

Cynthia then looked at me. “Are you done with training for today? We barely started” 

She looked hopefully at me but I shook my head. “We will continue tomorrow. And you still have that file to read through” 

I reminded her gently. I did not want her around while talking to Drusilla, as the information she would share was strictly confidential. 

As much as Cynthia liked me, I knew she could not keep things to herself and would somehow blurt it all in front of her father. 

Cynthia’s face fell as she twirled the end of her ponytail. “Oh well, then I will go get showered and join you guys to eat” 

But I did not want her to. She was not a bad girl, just the jealous type, and always behaved like a puppy that would do whatever it took to please me, but I somehow just could not feel anything for her. 

Though she would never stop trying. 

“Well, I thought you had to return to your home before lunch today?” 

Cynthia slapped her forehead. “Oh yes, I completely forgot that Dad was going to hold a lunch with all the alphas to discuss some key points.” 

I nodded. “Then it would not look good if you were not around. You know what my points and clauses are, relay them on my behalf to others.” 

Her face had begun to crumple again, but she looked at me with a smile when I said that. 

“Sure, King. I would be your spokesperson” 

“Great, now hurry up. The driver knows where to drop you” 

 

shall 

“See you soon, King. Our meeting and dinner date is still pending” She looked at me coyly but I only gave her a small smile. 

She then walked away happily, bouncing on her heels as Drusilla looked at me with a raised eyebrow. 

“You sure know how to keep someone dangling” 

I scoffed and pulled a chair to sit down. “I am just not being rude to her” 

Drusilla picked an orange slice from the bowl of fruit and popped it into her mouth. 

“Yeah, I can see that.” 

I shrugged and reached for one too and put it in my mouth. 

Drusilla kept watching the retreating figure of Cynthia, who was climbing up the stairs and disappeared from view. 

“When are you going to tell her that you don’t see yourself with her?” She asked, her eyes narrowing on me. 

I picked the bread from the plate in front of me and began buttering it. 

“Well, she wants to try hard and her father is useful to me. She knows that our union, if it ever happens, will be purely for a strategic purpose.” 

“Have you seen the way she looks at you, though? I think she hates me for being your close friend.” 

I chuckled. Girls always get jealous over petty things. 

“I don’t really care. You are my best friend and will always be 

Drusilla smiled, and we finished the breakfast while chatting happily. When we were done, she asked me to join her in the office, saying that she wanted to discuss something in private. 

on the huge table. 

I tensed, but followed her to the office, nonetheless. Drusilla softly opened the door and placed her diar She approached her favorite spot like usual, and stood looking outside the window, leaning on the window frame. 

“These visions, I am not sure if they are a boon or a curse.” 

She looked troubled and I could tell that the earlier cheerful chat had just been a facade. She needed some time to gather her thoughts and come to some conclusion before she shared it with me. 

Drusilla spent a lot of time thinking and trying to put the puzzling pieces together which made her talk less. 

“You saw something again?” 

I asked, but she did not answer me. Instead, she asked another question. 

“The pain you would feel occasionally whenever Zenovia was around or near you. Is that still there?” 

I quirked an eyebrow. “What pain?” 

She replied in the same tone. “Remember the ache you felt in your chest when we were outside her school? The first time you saw her? Did it ever return after that?” 

I was about to say ‘You are overthinking’ or something, but then I took a pause. I had never really thought of it. But if Dru was asking about it, it definitely wasn’t for chitchat. 

“Not really. No❞ 

“Hmm, so don’t you think 

stop and look for her in thy guess was correct? She is the right fit to be your anchor, and that pain was a sign for you to 

stop and look for her in the school instead of wandering through the entire kingdom.” 

I shrugged. “But you saw her. She has not even awakened her wolf yet. She is also a little weak compared to others, but that is because she does not have a wolf to share strength with.” 

Dru absent mindedly reached for the diary and began tracing her finger on the pages. 

“I know, but I think it is high time you tell her everything…especially with the rogue King and her idiotic stepbrother chasing 

-her.” 

“You’ve been keeping tabs on me,” I muttered, but she did not deny it. 

“It is my duty to do so, plus my visions are not really in my control. They just show up at the oddest of times and tell me everything. Oftentimes they are a jumbled mess and I worry about everything unnecessarily.” 

“So you saw everything? The rogue King and the stepbrother?” I could not help but ask.
