Chapter 597: Under One Person

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lily’s POV:

1 could never accept such disgusting things. I’d had enough of life revolving around the damned fame and fortune. My brothers, I, and even my parents were struggling in the endless whirlpool of power. I wouldn’t say 1 was noble, but the truth was that 1 wouldn’t say 1 like it and fear it. However, did I not even have the right to escape?

My mother’s scornful and hateful eyes stung me, but it didn’t matter. I never imagined that 1 could get anything from her. It was just that her plans tonight really shocked me. Could she do this for power? Was it really worth it?

She sat on the sofa, and the shadow of the furniture cast an ominous shadow on her face. Only those shrewd eyes could make her look like a living person, not a puppet. She did not move, as if she was deep in thought.

“Don’t speak so soon, child.” She suddenly became gentle again. “There are many things that you don’t want to do, and there are many things that 1 don’t want to do. There are too many things that people don’t want to do in this world, but everything is unpredictable. Not everything can be as one wishes.” “What do you mean?”

“This has already been decided. After spring, you will go to the Lycan pack to study. The transfer procedures have been completed. I’ve arranged accommodation for you. If you don’t want to, you can also attend day school. Our family has a few properties in the Lycan pack.”

Under my incredulous gaze, my mother smiled as if she had won a battle.

1 finally understood that tonight’s conversation was just a trap. Everything had been decided long ago. My wishes as the person involved were irrelevant. Perhaps this conversation was a kind gift from my mother. She deigned to inform me of this news in person instead of transporting me to the Lycan pack like a cow. This was enough for me to be grateful.

I spoke through gritted teeth, “You can’t do this. You don’t have the right to decide whether I stay or leave.”

“No, I can decide everything for you, Lily. I am your mother. A mother is born to decide everything about her daughter.”

She smiled gently as if sitting at a press conference or podium. She looked at me, but her eyes were empty. It was as if she was looking through my body to understand everything I would bring her.

I shivered.

Who was this?

My mother?

I knew she didn’t love me, but did it mean that the person who didn’t love me was my mother?

Had 1 been mistaken? I recognized the familiar skin but didn’t realize that the soul inside was no longer from the human world.

I couldn’t understand, I couldn’t accept it. Who was she? What changed her? Or was she, not her anymore?

“Don’t look at me like that,” said the creature in my mother’s skin.

“I love you, Lily, my daughter. Isn’t all this for your good? You don’t have to make it sound as bad as you put it. You only have to stay by the prince’s side, become his friend, become his habit, let him get familiar with you, and be inseparable from you. Then, you can get everything.

“You just have to be careful and cautious. Help the prince filter the people around him, especially those with ill intentions, and dress gorgeously. You don’t need to do anything else, and good days will come to you. As long as you can control him, he will be firmly enveloped in the palm of your hand. He likes you, and you only need one step to achieve this. Why not do it?”

She stood up and slowly walked to me. The rich fragrance of lilies bound me in place.

“It’s that simple. You’ll reach the peak of the werewolf pack. Everyone will respect you and fear you. By then, you should know that your current troubles are not worth mentioning. In the face of supreme power, everything will disappear.”

She leaned close to my ear like a sinister snake.

“Listen to me, Lily. This is your path, your only path. There’s no other choice.”

1 felt a chill from the bottom of my heart. The cold air wantonly dispersed from the cracks in my bones, freezing me into an ice sculpture. Then, 1 was shattered word by word. I couldn’t move. The extreme psychological tension had turned me into a taut bow. Any movement would make me shoot an arrow. But who was I pointing my arrow at? My bow was empty. Who could 1 touch?

A horn suddenly sounded outside the window, and the car lights flashed past.

“They’re back.”

My mother looked out of the window, and an elegant smile slowly crept up the corners of her mouth.

“Go and welcome your future classmates, Lily. 1 believe you will have a very warm school time.”

She tidied her clothes and left first. When she was about to reach the door, 1 called out to her in a low voice.

“Does Grandpa know about this?”

My mother stood still and did not turn around.

“He doesn’t know, but there’s no turning back. But he always wanted you to live a better life, right? For werewolves, there is no better place.

“But it all depends on you, my daughter. I can only send you to the Lycan pack. As for what you do... I don’t think 1 can do anything about it.”

She chuckled and walked away..
