The Lost Princess Of The Lycans Chapter 134: The Death Count
King Rays POV
After getting Sarah and the pups settled back into the house, it was time to interrogate Zorro. He was still in the dungeon awaiting interrogation. I was really curious to know why he was doing everything he was doing besides Sarah's DNA. I was going to seek out Donald and Izzy to help with the interrogation and his daughter. I needed all the help I could get when dealing with a witch as powerful as Zorro.
I knew there was a spell that would prevent him from regenerating, and it would allow us to kill him, but I did not understand what a witch's weakness was. I know that I am distraught that he continues to try to hurt my queen and my pups. I kissed Sarah and the pups good night. Sarah was still in bed, resting after her long ordeal. The pups were safely tucked into their cribs, and the nannies kept them safe. They also had a watchful eye on them; I still needed to remember to put extra clothes into the secret room for the nannies. I walked out of the bedroom. When I ran into Caleb,
"Your majesty," he stated as he bowed to me.
" I was just looking for you," he stated.
" Yes, Caleb, what do you need?" I responded.
"Christie and I were thinking about heading back to the White River clan, " he said.
" Don't go, my old friend," I stated.
" I need to speak with you about a few things, but right now, I need to find Donald and his daughter, " I said.
" Yes, Your Majesty," he stated as he bowed to me.
He dismissed himself, and I continued searching for Donald, Izzy, and his daughter Juanita. I entered the kitchen, and the cook set out a meal for everyone. I went to the living room and sat down with a plate of food. While eating, I was going over a plan about how to interrogate Zorro. I had no idea what I would do, but I knew I wanted my queen to be safe.
She has been through hell and back. There again, I am concerned about the rage that she has built up. I know she's been through a lot, but I want to ensure she knows how to handle it. So that no one gets hurt; the spell she cast using her rage was powerful. It was so powerful that Donald had to cast a powerful counterspell. I remember hearing Donald say it is so powerful that it is forbidden. Most witches take years to have that kind of training and power.
From what Donald had said, the fact that she could catch that spell without any years of practice or anything like that was very concerning. Donald's sister's spirit within Sarah must be very powerful. I wonder what caused her to be killed in the first place. Donald said it was some sort of war or something like that. I finished my food and went and put the plate in the sink in the kitchen.
The cook was still hard at work making food for everybody. I felt terrible because this kitchen wasn't designed to make vast amounts of food for a whole army. I cannot wait until the pack house is ready because I have included a big kitchen. When Brittany takes over this place after Sarah and I leave, she will need to hire a cook; she will need to make sure she has her warriors in place and patrols for the borders. She must make up her own rules and regulations for this place. It is not unusual for a female to be an alpha of a pack, but I have no choice but to leave Britney in charge, even though she has no desire to lead.
I know Brittany and her mate were looking forward to returning to the palace and the comforts within that. I have my best people leading the pack in my absence. Caleb was still shocked that I had made him the alpha of the White River clan. Before we return to the palace, Sarah, the pups, and I will visit there and set everybody straight on who is in charge. I would help Caleb appoint warriors and guards to train his people there. I'm going to miss my dear friend. We've been friends since we were children.
Enough with the sentimental foolishness. It was for the best that this happened. Yes, I'm going to miss him. He has been such a trusted friend and advisor. Now, I need to focus on Zorro and figure out what to do with him. I first need to speak out and see what witches are allergic to. That will drain their power and allow me the time to interrogate and be rid of him. I looked in the guestroom of the house, and there was nobody there, so they must have been either in the dungeon or in the hospital helping with the injured.
I poked my head into our bedroom to check on the pups, and they were sound asleep. I gave instructions to watch over them and protect them at all costs. Please inform me if there are any issues regarding their safety or if anyone is coming unannounced. I left the house and headed towards the hospital to see the count. How many were injured? How many were killed? Doctor Bernard had not come to the house to check on Sarah. She had no serious injuries that required immediate attention.
He was too busy working on the injured at this point. I knew that she was OK. As far as I could tell, she did not express being in any pain, and I did not see any wounds. We both went to find Izzy, and I went to the hospital and checked in with Dr. Bernard. There were over 7000 injured and more than that have been killed. I need to make a note that I need to send condolences to their families. I then went to the hospital designed as a prison for the Witches.
Over 2000 witches were injured lying in bed, and at least 3000 were captured. After getting the count of everything accounted for, I decided to go to the dungeon. And just as I thought, he was down there casting spells over Zorro cell.
"Donald may speak to you privately?" I asked.
"Yes, your majesty, you may." He responded.
We then went outside. I did not want anybody to hear our conversation. Juanita and Izzy were helping with the injured, both lycans and witches.
"OK, that's fine, but I need you, Izzy, and Jaunita to accompany me to my office to devise a plan to interrogate Zorro, " I said.
We then went to get Juanita and Izzy so that we could have this meeting and come up with a game plan. As Donald said, she was in the hospital helping with the witches, which is perfectly fine. I completely understand. She is a witch. After all, she is the daughter of the king of witches. After finding her, we all went back to the house and went to my office to discuss how we were going to protect everybody and do the interrogation,
" All right, Donald. What is your suggestion on how to handle the Zorro situation?" I asked him.
