His Weakness (Part 4):
"Let me stay here with you a bit to keep you company my son." The unknown woman said. "I know how hard it is for you."

Galore Palace:
Ruthless walked into the dinning room to have his dinner and went to his usual position, hardly had he settled down when Queen Lati voice was heard.
"How dare you lay your filthy hands on my son?" She asked and as usual Ruthless kept quiet. "You are not even worthy to stand before my son not to talk of breathing in the same air as him."
"Lati that is enough," Galore warned.
Ignoring Galore warnings, she continues, "Apart from talking back to my son who is your senior in public and laying your dirty hands on him, you dare try to steal his woman also. Anyway, I can only forgive you wholeheartedly if you stay away from Vala." Queen Lati laid out her terms and conditions for Ruthless. She smiled at her son as Ruthless didn't say a word, he continued to eat.
"You know with all due respect Lati, Vala is my mate and I don't need your forgiveness, you can eat it," Ruthless said shocking Lati, this will be the first time he will talk back to her, "I am not leaving my mate because of your son. The creator gave each and every one of us a soulmate, except some people who use black magic to win others. Your son will find his own mate soon, he should leave mine alone."
"He can get to choose whoever he wants to spend eternity with and I will make sure he ends up with Vala," queen Lati said after she has recovered from her shock.
"Just like you did, right? If I were you I will be thinking when his real identity will be out but I know already, you have a plan up your sleeves," Ruthless said smiling sheepishly.
"You know..." queen Lati said with clenched teeth, "....I already have a plan to snatch the girl from your grasp."
"Then let me use this opportunity to tell you 'sorry' because the only place it can happen is in your dream." Ruthless told her and stood up to leave. "Having this discussion with you was Interesting, at least I got to know you have a plan up your sleeves on the day you are bursted, so like the good Ruthless that I am I already have a plan to sabotage yours. I have never spoken a word to you before since I have been living here so count this as a privilege for me to speak to you. And now, I am advising you, in a fight, pick someone who has a low mentality like yours. Thanks for the food." He added and left the room.
"What is going on between the both of you?" King Galore asked. "Are you hiding something from me Lati?"
Queen Lati hissed, stood up and left the dinning room, and soon Blue followed leaving Galore who stared after them.
He had seen fear in Lati's eyes throughout her conversation with Ruthless even though she tries to hide it and he knows his wife, the Witch, is never afraid of anything.
So what could have made her scared?
He wondered and ate his meal.

"Son, I want to talk to you," King Galore said as he walked up to meet Ruthless who was facing the almost full moon 🌔, he was standing at the long corridor which was facing the north side of the palace.
"Don't call me that, you know my name so use it Galore."
"I don't know your name son, and I know Ruthless isn't your name."
"What do you want to talk about Galore?"
"About what you and my mate were discussing over dinner."
"Go and ask her and not me."
"Can't we just have a normal conversation for once, like father and son talk."
"Goodnight Galore," Ruthless said and disappeared.

Watching Vala sleeping, Ruthless gently and quietly climbed her bed and laid beside her, breathing in her scent which calmed down his spirit beasts. In a few days time, the Moon will be full and those with their soulmates will have to mate to seal up their bonds, but he is breathing in her scent to get into his system so that on the day of the full moon, he won't lose control and mate with Vala. And also on the third night of the full moon 🌕, that's when he will change into his lycan wolf beast.
He was brought out of his thoughts when Vala bit him on one of his ears and didn't let go of that ear. He tried all he could to get his ear out of her mouth when he realized he couldn't teleport only himself. When he teleports himself, Vala also gets teleported along.
Left with no other option, he stayed that way until the following morning blaming his spirit beasts for pushing him to come to Vala's room.
'Master, when did we push you to her room?' Fire asked in his mind. 'Or did we tie your legs?'
"Don't mind him and he is blaming us," Windy said.
