16 Deciding To Go To School
Selma Payne’s POV:
“How do you feel?” my father asked unemotionally.
I tried my best not to act coquettishly with them and replied professionally, “Not bad.”
“Your Majesty, her performance was excellent. She will become a mighty warrior in the future,” Aldrich praised me with a straight face.
It felt even weirder, but fortunately, they didn’t mind.
“That’s great! We’ll continue tomorrow. Thank you for your hard work,” my mother said to him gently.
“It’s my honor. ”
We turned around and left. I couldn’t help but turn back to look at him, and he made a face at me.
I knew it! He couldn’t hide his true nature for long!
“Selma, what are you doing?” my mother asked suddenly. As my mother asked me, Aldrich’s expression returned to ice-cold and serious.
“Nothing. I’m coming.” I jogged to catch up. I was like a child who needed to be picked up by my parents. But, no. In my previous pack, children didn’t need their parents to pick them up.
We chatted all the way home. Although my parents ignored me and kept saying embarrassing things, I liked this.
After we returned to the palace, we had a meal, and when we were taking a walk together, my mother suddenly mentioned school.
“Selma, I think you should go to school too.”
“Me?” I scratched my head. “I’m in class with Sir Aldrich, right?”
“Not this kind of class, honey. You need some friends and not be locked up in the palace. You need to have your life.” My mother’s words were still so gentle and touching.
I couldn’t believe my ears. This morning, my mother, who was still depressed that she couldn’t stay with me for a long time, took the initiative to get me to school and train on the training ground. At least she could come and see me if she wanted to. Going to school was different.
“I ...”
My father nodded in agreement. “Yes, Selma. You do need to go to school and make friends with more people. When you become the Queen Regent in the future, you’ll need your friends’ help.
“And you don’t have to worry about being unable to keep up with the classes. The curriculum of this school is relatively simple. Your classmates are all your age. But the training is unlike Aldrich’s. This is especially for civilians to participate.”
I enjoyed the time with my friends and wanted to see what it was like in different places.
“But don’t I still have to attend Aldrich’s class?”
My father laughed. “Honey, it’s okay. The training in school and on the training ground is completely different. You can ask Sir Aldrich to teach you some moves. You’re the future Queen Regent of the Lycans. Show them what you’re capable of and find yourself a future partner and mate.”
It sounded good, and going to school meant I would have less time with Aldrich, and I could make new friends. What could be better than that?
“I want to go!” I quickly agreed, afraid my father would think I didn’t want to.
“But don’t think you can enjoy a Lycan’s privileges in school. All your training will be the same, or even stricter because you will be the protector of everyone in the future. In addition, you will have to train with Aldrich for at least three days a week. Your awakening period is almost up, so you must compensate for the training you have missed,” my father told me sternly.
I nodded. The situation was even better than I had expected. I only needed to train with Aldrich for three days. After that, it was like a dream.
“Sigh, our baby has grown up.” My mother leaned against my father and said, “We should have registered her at a school earlier. It looks like she wants to attend school tonight.”
I held my mother’s hand and shook it. “No, I would still like to be with you the most. It’s all because Aldrich is too annoying!”
“You two are interesting.” My mother covered her mouth and laughed. “You should be happy about your charm. Aldrich is a good kid. He is not usually like this.”
I pouted and snorted.
“Hey... “My mother tapped my head with her finger.
“Don’t worry. After getting familiar with each other in a few days, you’ll be fine.” My father chuckled. “Training is always interesting, isn’t it?”
“I’d rather it be boring ...” I mumbled. They laughed even more happily.
“Alright, since you’ve decided to go to school. Do you want to start tomorrow?” My father asked.
“Let’s start tomorrow!” I nodded.
“Then, I’ll register you for tomorrow afternoon’s class?”
I nodded. In fact, any time was good as long as I could reduce the time I spent on the training ground with Aldrich. He was annoying.
“Selma, you have to promise me that you’ll train well after you go to school and that you’ll treat everyone equally.”
“I promise you. I will treat everyone equally.” Except for Aldrich, I added in my heart.
My mother smiled and pushed me back. “Alright, I would like to spend some alone time with your father. You must be tired after training. Go and rest.”
