Chapter 06
Natalie’s POV
Behind the castle is a winding river, the water is green. Clear enough to see the colored stones on the bottom of the river. I was so excited that I could scream. I put my hand in the water and let the water run through my fingers. This is the first time I have experienced this wonderful feeling. You could only feel the water running when you were taking a shower. The river stretched as far as the eye could see into the forest on the right. On the opposite was a wide meadow. Behind the meadow are forests and mountains. Everything was so quiet and beautiful, I closed my eyes and felt it all.
Dent's phone rings. After he answered the phone, he came to me and said, "Miss Natalie, I have something to take care of. Please stay here and play for a while. Don't go away.”
"Good.” She didn't leave until she heard my definite answer.
After playing in the water for a while, I got up and walked along the river. I found a swing near the garden. The swing is hung from a big tree. I can't wait to sit on the swing, leisurely swing in the air. A gust of wind blew and my light blue headband slipped out of my hair. Her hair fell down in an instant. I'm in no hurry to pick it up. It took me a little more swinging alone before I got down to pick up the straps.
As I crouched down to pick up my headband, one foot with heels landed on it. I looked up. I saw three girls. They were talking as if they didn't see me. The girl on the right has her foot on my headband.
"Move your foot, please.” I said to them. They continued their conversation as if they had not heard.
I knew right away that they did it on purpose. I haven't been out of the house, but I've seen a lot of this on TV.
So I took the ribbon in my hand and pulled it out. The girl who stepped on my bandage was on her ass in a second.
"Oh, shit.” She could not help swearing.
I took the hair band to stand up, nonchalantly patted the dust above.
"You! You apologize to Jenny!” Said the middle girl angrily. When I looked closer, I saw that she was the girl who was looking at me with hate in her eyes in the hall.
"Why should I apologize to her?” I looked at her coldly, and she withdrew a step.
"Ola is the only healer in our community. She is very important. You should apologize when she asks you to.” Said the girl on the left.
At this moment, the girl who had fallen also stood up and said, "Yes, you should apologize.”
Looks like the girl in the middle is Ola. Are healers valuable in this community? In my hometown, there are five healers. Healers have the ability to heal themselves and can also quickly heal other werewolves. Healers who know how to make poisons and cures are especially valuable. Maybe the werewolves in this clan are better at fighting, so healers are rare.
"An apology? Should you apologize first for stepping on my headband on purpose?” I questioned them with a sardonic smile.
They look at each other, and then the girl on the right says, "I didn't mean to. Have you any proof that I did it on purpose?”
"Can you stop being so childish? Find something fancy to play. That roof. You see that? Camera. Do you want to check out the surveillance?” I sneered at them and pointed to the roof.
They were stunned, and I said sternly, "Is this how you treat your future Luna?”
Ola winked at the girl on the left. Then the girl on the left said, "Luna? You're not Luna yet! It's not like Alpha will actually marry you. He hasn't visited you in all the time you've been here. It means he doesn't care about you. You still want to be Luna? ! It's ridiculous. A She-Wolf like you is worthless because your own pack has surrendered. I am ashamed of you!”
Anger builds up in me and I feel my body getting hotter and hotter. Just as I was about to explode, I felt a line of sight in the forest behind me. I quickly turned to see where the strange sight was coming from, but all I could see was shaking leaves.
"I'm talking to you! Are you too ashamed to face us?” She said, and all three girls laughed.
"Did you hear that? A daughter sold by her father.” As she spoke, she reached out to touch my shoulder. I grabbed her hand and fell her over my shoulder. It's Jenny on the floor again. At this point I was already very angry, I clenched my fist to try to control myself.
"Jenny.” The girl on the right runs to check on Jenny.
Ola is about to attack me.
Then a voice rang out.” What are you doing?
Ola immediately put on an aggrieved expression when she heard the sound. She ran over to the guy crying, grabbed the guy's arm, and then put her chest on the guy's arm and said, "Alpha, look, she's bullying us.”
I looked up. There stood a werewolf with silver hair and green eyes. He had a strong chin and perfect lips. Dent is handsome next to him, but this one looks like the goddess's greatest creation. He's a little taller than Dent and wears a white shirt and black pants, just like the prince I once saw in a book.
However, the handsome man in front of me did not reduce my anger. He was Ken, the man who said he would marry me, but who turned his back on me.
Instead of looking at Ken, I turned to Jenny, who was still sitting on the floor, and said, "AN offense I can take as a sign of low quality and bad character. But insulting my people isn't just a moral issue. You were the ones who attacked his own kind while we were weakened from fighting vampires, and who forced my father to sign that treaty. I left home for the peace of my people, sacrificing my own happiness. And what have you done for your pack? If it ever happens again, I won't let it go. I want you to remember and I want this to be the last time.”
Then I walked towards the castle, passing Ken. When he wanted to say something, I interrupted him and said, "Control the werewolves in your pack. I came here to honor the peace treaty, not to be humiliated. If you don't like the treaty, you can tear it up.” After saying that, I angrily go forward.
Dent stops me and says, "Dinner's ready, Natalie.”
"I won't eat. I'll go to my room and rest.” 'I answered coldly.
"Then I'll have the maid bring it to your room.” I ignored him and went straight to my room.
I've never wanted to leave this place more than I do right now.
My Wolf? Are you really there? Why don't you wake up? I'm so lonely in this strange place.
