Yarin’s POV:

Aunt Teresa looked like she was choking as she held her chest and panted violently. She saw us coming out of the National Broadcast Station building, which seemed to confirm Lily’s words and made her face redder.

I stole a glance at my mother’s face. Her already serious expression became even more livid because of this farce.

Aunt Teresa looked like she was about to faint. Tears welled up in her eyes. It was hard to say if it was because she was angry at her daughter or for another reason.

“I hope you are all well, ladies.” My mother said expressionlessly, “We have to hurry back to the Silver Moon Pack to prepare for the Moonlight Festival tomorrow.”

Aunt Teresa and Lily curtsied. Everyone in the clearing was curtsying. They weren’t so respectful to me yesterday. My stupidity in the heat of the moment had embarrassed me. I was a trashy prince.

Aunt Teresa tried to say something, but my mother didn’t give her a chance. “If there’s anything, let’s talk in the car. There arc too many people here.”

Aunt Teresa had no choice but to shut up, while Lily remained silent.

“Lily is already sixteen years old. She’s not a child anymore. Teresa, no matter what conflicts there are, I think you should save her some dignity and not scold her in public.”

“I was just agitated,” Aunt Teresa explained hurriedly. “This isn’t the first time Lily has scared me. I don’t know how to communicate with this child. She won’t listen to anything…”

“Teresa,” my mother raised her voice and interrupted her. “You should think about why Lily is unwilling to communicate with you. Besides, you shouldn’t be telling me this here. I’m not the one you should apologize to.”

Aunt Teresa froze as if she had been electrocuted. After a while, she said with a pale face, “Yes, Your Majesty.”

Lily remained silent.

Nobody talked on the way. I didn’t know what happened in the car of Aunt Teresa and Lily, but my parents didn’t say anything to Heller and me in front of the driver.

My father even told us about the arrangements for the Moonlight Festival. Obviously, he was trying to liven up the atmosphere, but Heller and I were not in the mood to have fun.

‘Sorry, Dad, in the face of a storm, candy is really not a comfort.’

We were temporarily staying in a manor in the Silver Moon Pack This was the Alpha’s private property. The security was tight, and the environment was beautiful. Even if there were a crowded commercial street dozens of meters away, it would not disturb the peaceful life here.

The Silver Moon Pack’s Alpha was waiting. I believed he was the most anxious person at this time. As the direct leader of the Silver Moon Pack, he was more afraid that Heller and I would be in trouble in the Silver Moon’s territory than anyone else.

“This must be a wonderful trip!” He welcomed us warmly. The smile on his face could not be hidden. “It’s been a long journey. I think everyone must be tired. Please rest first. I am about to arrange a banquet to welcome the princes.”

Francis Quinn was already an old man with gray sideburns. It was not easy to support his family and pack alone, which made him look much older than his actual age.

However, time had given him a wealth of experience. For example, he did not mention anything about what I had done. He casually called it a ‘trip’ and gave everyone a way out.

“Thank you, Francis, but there’s no need for a banquet. The boys have to make time to prepare for the Moonlight Festival tomorrow. There’s no time for fun.”

My mother refused Francis’ suggestion. She didn’t look at me but made me feel like I was sitting on pins and needles.

As my mother said, Kara had followed us since we stepped into the manor. She was everywhere except for things like going to the toilet and showering.

“Before the Moonlight Festival parade tomorrow, Her Majesty and the Prince will give a speech. And my dear princes, the original arrangement was for you to scatter petals and candy with the children who played the page boys on the float, but because you were absent from the rehearsals for the past few days, everything has been canceled,” Kara announced this cruel news while Heller and I wailed loudly.

“No, no, Grandma Kara, we can, we can!” I hugged Kara’s waist and tried to win her sympathy like I did when I was young. “It’s just scattering petals and candy. We can do it. We don’t need to rehearse at all. We’ll be at our best!”

Heller was also watching her with a pair of pitiful almond eyes.

If I was the only one begging, then there would be basically no room for turning around this matter, but with Heller joining, our weight can be a little bit heavier—yes, because I used to use coquetry and cheating to achieve my goals, now my behaviors were automatically seen as ‘nonsense’ in the eyes of adults, which was sad.

With our relentless pleading, Kara finally agreed to plead with my mother on our behalf.

“These are the costumes that will be used for tomorrow’s parade. Try them on. If there are tight parts, we must make emergency changes tonight.”

Holding the costume, Heller and I looked at each other and felt slightly confused. What was the costume for if our participation in the parade was canceled?

Looking at Kara’s half-smile, we realized that we had been tricked! And this was mostly my mother’s intention.. Sometimes I felt that she was more like a child than me!
