Chapter 37: Cousin Who’s Good at Fighting

[Margaret’s Perspective]

I did not expect to see Elliot.

He was Donald’s most capable assistant, Beta of the werewolf royal family.

I was flattered that Donald had sent him to guide me. Donald had not lied to me. He had chosen an excellent person for me.

Elliot instructed me on how to fight in wolf form.

A werewolf could only unleash his full combat strength in wolf form. We had to learn to use our teeth, claws, and even the weight of our bodies as weapons to fight. This was very different from fighting in human form. I’d just become an adult and had never undergone such training before.

What Elliot taught me was helpful.

I realized that what Donald said about combat teaching yesterday was complete nonsense. I actually listened to him at first.

At the thought of last night, I blushed again.

“Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to take a break?” Elliot asked considerately.

“It’s alright.” I took the water from him and took a sip.

“The sun is up at noon. You’ve trained long enough. Why don’t we call it a day?” Elliot said.

“Yes, sorry to trouble you. You still have to coach me,” I said awkwardly. Elliot must have a lot of work to do, but he still had to listen to Donald and find time to coach me.

“It’s my honor.” Elliot smiled. “You’re a fast learner. You’re talented.”

“Before I became an adult, I participated in some training, but I never fought in wolf form.”

I said, wiping the sweat from my forehead with a towel.

“I have a cousin who’s also very good at fighting. You two are very alike in that regard.”

“Is that so? What kind of person is she?”

Elliot smiled again and did not pursue the topic. I did not pay too much attention and continued.

“I probably don’t have the physical fitness of your royal family, but I’ll work hard to be as good as anyone.”

“Let me send you back to your room,” Elliot said. “The Lycan King said to ensure your safety, you must bring a guard if you want to go out.”

I sighed. Donald’s arrangement did not surprise me, but I wondered when he would stop treating me like a child.

I had lunch and planned to look for Elizabeth.

I should let Elizabeth learn the skills that Elliot had taught me. She should have some ability to defend herself. I did not intend to bring an escort. That would attract too much attention, and I did not think that I would be in any danger just being in the camp.

I went to Armstrong’s house and found Elizabeth packing her luggage. Anthony was there too.

“What are you doing?” I asked in surprise.

“Oh, I want to go home for a few days,” Elizabeth replied casually as she instructed Anthony to put her crystal-shaped decorations in boxes.

“Did you have a disagreement with Armstrong?”

“Oh, no, not at all.” Elizabeth glanced at me sharply. She did not look like she wanted to hear Armstrong’s name. “That’s my home. I can go back whenever I want. Margaret, what are you doing here?”

“I think you should learn some combat skills now that something like this has happened to your tribe,” I answered truthfully.

“What?!” Elizabeth looked at me in disbelief. “We won’t need to fight.”

“But…”

“No buts, Margaret. Fighting is not something we should worry about, and it’s not something you should worry about. What you should be concerned about is my Luna succession ceremony. There might be a ceremony for you and the Lycan King now,” Elizabeth said firmly.

I did not know how to explain to her that things were not as simple as she thought.

I looked at Anthony for help, but he shrugged and made no move to help me.

“Elizabeth, our people are under attack. If it’s serious, the Luna succession ceremony might be postponed. You need to have the ability to protect yourself.” I wanted to tell Elizabeth the seriousness of the matter.

“What? Put off the ceremony???” This news was clearly more shocking to Elizabeth. “That’s impossible.”

Elizabeth’s head turned to Anthony for a little support.

I shook my head firmly in Anthony’s direction.

This was the truth. Anthony could not lie through his teeth for Elizabeth’s sake.

“That’s possible, but there’s a high chance that it won’t happen,” said Anthony.

“Oh, my.”

Anthony’s words still dealt a heavy blow to Elizabeth. She leaned back on the comfortable sofa, her eyes glazed over.

I did not understand why Elizabeth valued this ceremony so much. She had put in a lot of effort and looked forward to it. However, she and Armstrong were already together. The ceremony was just a process, and there were clearly more important things to do now. I thought that as long as Donald was willing to be with me all the time, I did not care if I had a grand ceremony.
