Chapter 80: Chapter 80

[Margaret’s Perspective]

“I said…” I wanted to interrupt Elizabeth, but I didn’t succeed at all.

“Most of the flowers and various supplies for the ceremony have been selected. The menu hasn’t been drawn up yet. There are only a few days left until the date we set previously. Recently, you’ve all been busy with other things. The progress of the ceremony has been delayed a lot. We still have to prepare quickly.”

“Elizabeth,” I said. “No one has time for that ceremony right now. What we need to do is defend ourselves.”

“What?” Elizabeth was horrified. “You mean the ceremony isn’t going to be held?”

“I didn’t say that, but definitely not now,” I said helplessly. “We need to postpone this.”

“You told me last time that it was possible,” Elizabeth said accusingly, her eyes wide. “How can you make such a decision without discussing it with me at all?”

“Because no one remembers these things. Look at how busy Alpha is these days. Everyone’s on a roll.”

“So you forgot about me! I’m Luna of this pack too, but no one thought to discuss any decision with me.” Elizabeth was starting to look crazy.

“Think about it. The pack isn’t safe now. If any attacks happen during the ceremony, the entire ceremony will be ruined.”

“Impossible. Armstrong already said that it’s very safe inside the pack. As long as everyone stays where they are, there won’t be any danger.” Elizabeth really didn’t have a grasp of the situation.

I could only look at Anthony for help. Once Elizabeth started being unreasonable, Anthony was the only one who was good at dealing with her.

“Elizabeth, if we have to have a ceremony, the patrols will be very strict now. The other Packs won’t be able to attend. Are you willing to do that?” Anthony said.

Elizabeth finally hesitated and asked, “So the other Packs won’t see me becoming Luna, right?”

“That’s right.”

I knew Anthony’s trick would work. I looked at him in admiration.

One of the important reasons Elizabeth insisted on holding the ceremony was to show off to everyone that she had become Luna of the Silver Moon Tribe and to show those who had once disliked her that she had an Alpha as a mate. If that goal wasn’t achieved, the ceremony clearly didn’t make much sense to her.

“Besides, Donald might not have time to attend your ceremony now,” I took the opportunity to say. “When things are settled, Donald and I can hold a ceremony with you. At that time, everyone will come to witness you becoming Luna.”

“Really? You’ll stay until then?” Elizabeth looks at me nervously.

“We will,” I said, stroking Elizabeth’s hair.

At this moment, I felt my mission as a sister. Perhaps when the time came, which was when I was about to leave with Donald, I would definitely want to see Elizabeth obtain her own happiness and live well with Armstrong. As long as I could do it, I was willing to satisfy her wishes.

“Then… okay.” I felt relieved when I saw that Elizabeth accepted the truth despite her reluctance.

I looked around. Most of the people had dispersed. Angel had long since left for God knows where.

I said goodbye to Anthony and Elizabeth. I needed to make some preparations for my evening patrol.

On the way back to my room, I thought about what I was going to do tonight. If Donald found out, it would definitely anger him. I avoided thinking about the consequences if Donald found out. As long as I did it secretly, he wouldn’t find out, and none of this would be a problem.

I sat on the bed and was wondering how I was going to bypass Donald and the guards and walk out of this room into the forest that night.

Suddenly, I heard a knock. When I opened the door, there was no one outside. Only a package.

I opened the package. Inside was a full set of patrol gear and a dagger.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

I often saw this around the waist of a patrolman. Werewolves were more used to carrying daggers to defend themselves than other weapons.

Because it was smaller and more portable, it was not easy to discover. Werewolves were better at close combat. With a werewolf’s strength, a dagger could cause huge damage in a short time.

In addition, there was an envelope in the package. I opened it. There was a short letter inside. It said: “It’s not too late to give up.”

I gripped the paper tightly. It was from Angel. She was still provoking me at this time because she wanted to see me admit defeat. So I must not do as she had wished.

I have to go this evening.

I lay down on my bed and closed my eyes. I started to conserve my energy for my night patrol. I would prove myself to everyone at night. I was no worse than anyone else.
