Shifted Fate Novel

Chapter 221 We pulled into the super store parking lot and hopped out .

But Jora just kept talking .

The council then tried to argue that it would be unnecessary for him to be that involved in the process so that every girl has the same starting point , but the king disagreed .

He turned on them .

Clair sent me a video .

We were walking in to the store when Jora handed me his phone .

He clicked the play button and Toya and Wendy crowded my back to watch .

Rowan was just turned to face the mob of men behind him , and you could tell he was agitated .

What do you mean , I shouldnt be involved in the selection ? Its my fucking mate we are choosing here .

Clair had to adjust her body , I am assuming , to keep the phone hidden .

Why should I let you all choose my mate without any of my input ? Did you think I was just going to fall in line ? Did you assume I would just accept any woman you choose that is under your thumb and happily make her my queen ? Rowan turned and walked away from the trembling men .

You could tell they were pissed that he wasnt falling in line .

You cant do this .

One councilman screamed and Rowan turned .

You keep forgetting this is my life .

I am king .

You are just my council and I am really getting fucking tired of you trying to control everything I do .

It is not your job to control me , it is your job to council me and the fact that you all keep pushing the envelope is making me really question if you are still necessary .

A stillness settled over the group of men .

What are you saying ? I could hear the threat in the words .

Im saying you were put in place in case the worst happened to my father when I was too young to figure things out .

And it did .

The worst happened .

My father passed away and I was left alone with you guiding me ..

But … But what ? One of them stepped forward , and Rowans eyes tightened .

But I am no longer a pup confused about how to rule my kingdom .

Rowan turned and left them speechless .

The video cut off , and we were stuck there wondering what we just watched .

I was the first to break the silence .

Stupid man .

I handed Jora back his phone as panic wrapped around my throat .

What ? Jora tucked his phone away and followed us .

He just put a target on his back .

Bigger than it was before .

Toya wiped her face .

They will gun for him harder now .

Exactly .

Wendy confirmed , and the panic felt like it started to strangle me .

How did he do that ? Jora followed behind , like a good guard .

I wiped at the sweat that had beaded on my forehead .

I had to calm myself down .

Before I could worry about Rowan , I needed to handle my attack .

He is challenging them .

Showing his intention early .

I hurried towards the vegetables .

Now what we have to decide is if he did it on purpose to pull the attention away from something , or if he allowed his anger to speak for him .

Toya and Wendy stopped dead .

Do you think he would do it on purpose ? I bobbed my head back and forth .

He might feel like they were getting too close to finding something out he wanted to keep hidden , or to pull attention away from someone .

I could see him doing that because he was worried .

But … Jora came closer .

But ? But I can also see him getting so angry that he said it without really thinking it through .

He Is a Lycan , and while they are obviously not Immortal , they are stronger than the average wolf .

And Rowan is the strongest man I have ever met .

Toya caught up with me as I stop in front of the erbs .

She grabbed for the rosemary .

No … no hes not .

I grabbed some thyme , and we grew quiet .

Rowan was keeping things secret and now I had to figure out a way to protect him .

But first , I needed to figure out what was killing my wolves .

I looked over at Toya .

Grab everything .

I dont know when I will have to make another chicken .

Wendy perked up .

I had an idea on our way here .

We all turned to her .

What ? I dropped things into the cart Jora went and grabbed .

Thank you .

He smiled and nodded .

My mate always forgets the cart and then gets more than she expected .

Why dont we get you a countertop herb garden ? Wendy pulled out her phone .

A what ? Here .

She handed me her phone to a photo of a product from the store .

It was a small plastic tray with small- holes down the length of it and an expanding arm that suspended a light over the tray .

Each hole is for a small cup of soil .

It will grow an herb in each hole and you will have your own supply whenever you need it .
