[Elizabethâs Perspective]
The other party narrowed her eyes at me. She had a pair of very beautiful but extremely invasive green eyes.
âYouâre Luna of this pack?â She suddenly smiled kindly and said briskly, âI remember you. We met last time in the forest. Your name isâ¦?â
âElizabeth,â I replied.
âHello, Elizabeth. My name is Angel.â
Angel gave a rather saucy smile that softened her overly large green eyes.
She held out her hand to me and I shook it.
I remembered that the last time she appeared in the forest, Margaret introduced her to me as the commander of the Lycan Kingâs assault team. At that time, my impression of her was that she was a powerful woman with a beautiful face and an excellent figure.
Besides, I thought that she would have a high and mighty personality. Even in school, any girl who was slightly prettier would be more arrogant.
However, compared to those girls, Angel was much stronger in appearance and figure, but she was also approachable.
Not to mention, she was the commander of the Lycan Commando. She was a perfect combination of beauty, intelligence, and ability.
I remembered that every time I went to find Margaret, the bodyguards at the door were fierce and expressionless.
The Lycan King had kept Margaret locked up again. I thought all Lycans were like those people who didnât care to be confused with ordinary werewolves.
But Angel seemed different from all of them. She had a unique charm that made people feel like there was no distance between them and her. I couldnât help taking a liking to her instantly.
âWhy are you here alone? Itâs not safe in the pack now. Itâs dangerous for a girl like you,â Angel said.
âI want to find Margaret,â I answered truthfully.
âMargaret?â Angel said after a momentâs thought. âIs that the girl who became our Majestyâs Mate?â
âThatâs her. Weâre twins.â I nodded.
âTwin sisters? Then you really donât look alike.â Angel studied me and said, âI noticed the first time I saw you. Youâre much prettier than the other girl.â
First meeting?
My heart skipped a beat. It was in the forest. Many of us were there. Me, Margaret, Armstrong, and the Lycan King.
I suddenly remembered what Margaret told me earlier in the day. She said that she was injured because Angel had schemed against her.
But Angel didnât look like the kind of person who was mean and calculating. She was so beautiful and kind. Could there be a misunderstanding between them?
Angel sensed my hesitation and smiled. âI see youâre confused about me.â
I looked at her hesitantly but said nothing.
âDid Margaret tell you?â Angel said. âI interacted with her a few times. I sensed that she was a little hostile to me. I didnât mean to offend her, but I think there might be a misunderstanding.â
âMargaret did tell me something about you,â I admitted.
âDid she tell you she was hurt because of me?â Angel asked, shaking her head with a smile. âIâm just a lowly commander. I donât have the power to hurt the Lycan Kingâs Mate. Not to mention that I have no reason to do so. Hurting the future queen is a felony among the Lycans.â
Angel lowered her head and looked a little melancholic. âHowever, Iâve been dismissed now. Donald thinks very highly of his Mate. This time, she got injured, and Donald took it out on me. Iâm leaving here in two days.â
âYouâre leaving?â My eyes widened. âWhy?â
A thought struck me.
When I first met Angel, I reminded Margaret to be careful of her snatching the Lycan King. At that time, Margaret had acted very strangely. Moreover, Angel had always called the Lycan King by his first name. So far, I had only heard Margaret call him that.
This also meant that Angel and Donald must have had an extraordinary relationship before. If my guess at the time was correct and Angel and the Lycan King really had something going on before, then it was reasonable for Margaret to be hostile to her.
âIs this about the Lycan King?â I blurted out.
âDonald, huhâ¦â Angel gave a half-smile and asked, âIs that what Margaret told you?â
I shook my head. âI just have a feeling your relationship isnât ordinary.â
âDonald is indeed a special person to me, but we donât have the kind of relationship you think we do,â Angel said.
âWhatâs going on between you two?â I pressed.
âNever mind. Iâm leaving anyway. Thereâs no point in talking about these things. Since you and Margaret are sisters, I hope youâll tell her I mean her no harm.
I didnât mean to hurt her before. I was the commando captain in charge of security. I had responsibilities after all. Please pass on my message to her. Iâm sorry about this.â Angel revealed a lonely expression.
