Abby''s n was pretty simple, but it needed strategic execution. "There was a reason I am rushing the ceremony I announced for my son...


    "When the timees, I want you to use your connections and let Calpin know about this festivity. ording to my understanding of him, he will definitely try to make ripples to disrupt the non existent peace settled over the kingdom upon the birth of Arlo... "He will send rogues, but there is also a high possibility for him to make a personal appearance if rumors spread that I''m seriously injured."N?velDrama.Org ? content.


    When Abby decided to announce the news of her attack to the public three months back, she didn''t actually expect it woulde handy for her current n. And when she was attacked the second time, Arthur went ahead and made a grand scene until everyone in the capital learnt she got injured right after giving birth to Arlo.


    Moreover, Arthur also made sure the humiliation Abby pped him with didn''t escape the closed doors of the great hall. Apart from the royal council and the several trusted warriors in the pce, no one knew what Abby''s current condition was.


    Even if they learned she woke up from hera, with Arthur''s help, she nned to keep her recovery a secret, no matter if she got better or worse.


    "With the mess of our internal conflicts aired for the world to see, Calpin would be tempted toe here." Abby was quite confident with her n. "If we use these cards to our favor, we may be able to surprise him."


    Arthur remained silent as he let her exin everything she had on her mind. He only spoke when Abby was finally finished speaking. "But you are rushing this too much."


    "I have a valid reason for it." Abby smirked at his confusion. "I want people to think you were ignoring my current condition and wanted to do whatever you pleased to do. I want you to announce to the capital that you are holding the ceremony for your grandson." What happened in the great hall the day before didn''t make it past the pce gates, it included Abby''s decision to hold an introduction ceremony for her newborn baby. With her making Arthur announce it like this, the public would be left wondering, unable to understand what actually was going on in the pce.


    Well, gossip like court politics would snag such attention that the longer they circte, the more ridiculous they would be until the actual truth got distorted so much, no one would be able to tell what was the real story


    anymore.


    And Abby wanted to feed the people with half truths, she was giddy at the thought of how absurdly people''s wild imagination could y to their favor.


    Hearing her, Arthur couldn''t help but agree her n was quite cunning and really genius. But he was conflicted about one part. "So you want to lure Calpin all the way here?"


    From her words earlier, they already had the possible location of Calpin''s current hideout. So wouldn''t it be easy to march there instead of attracting chaos to their doorstep?


    "Yeah, that''s what I n to do." Abby replied calmly. "It was already a n proven to be effective, so I don''t see why we couldn''t resort to it a second time."


    "What do you mean?!" Arthur felt a little puzzled by her words. "When did you lure Calpin out of his hiding?"


    "I didn''t say it was me who lured him before." Abby felt her throat clogging in a bit. "It was Micah, you remember the rogue attack on the day of my crowning ceremony?"


    Arthur suddenly felt stupid. Because how did he not realize this before? Everyone was still puzzled over the fact how those rogues managed to breach the highly protected perimeter of the capital city, before attacking Micah in their own f*****g pce.


    But now he had an answer. It was his son''s n all along. He wanted toy a trap for Calpin under the disguise of being busy with his own mating ceremony and had seeded until the part where rogues showed up.


    Then his former beta ruined all his efforts by trying to get rid of Abby. The devastation left in the wake of those two events was unimaginable. People were still trying to recover from all the damage even after months, and now Abby wanted to try the same thing? "And then you want me to fight him right in the pce? But it will be filled with people,moners and high ranking shifters. It is really risky." Arthur couldn''t help but point out.


    "I know, but it''s worth giving it a shot." Abby said as she exined it to him briefly. "For the fighting part, we have toe up with a suitable strategy to reduce losses on our side."


    Only two things had the ability to jeopardize her n. Aside from fighting Calpin, they would also be upied with protecting the innocents. However, it wasn''t possible to avoid deaths in a war, they could only try to minimize them as much as possible. Arthur agreed with her, deaths were inevitable in wars. After discussing a little more, they concluded the meeting for now. They needed to discuss how they should prepare the warriorster.


    "Thank you for agreeing to help me." Abby said, a small but genuine smile lifting up the corners of her lips.


    "That''s where you are wrong. Don''t think too highly of yourself?" Arthur gave her a disdainful frown. "I''m not here to help you. I only want to help my kingdom."


    Abby just looked at him, and the man frowned even harder. "I still hate you. This is only a temporary truce. If you didn''t say there is a possibility for my son to be still alive, I wouldn''t even have spared this suicide mission another thought." "Okay, I understand." Abby said simply. "Then, thank you for putting our grudges aside for now."
