Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lily’s POV:

There was a small and beautiful living area in her bedroom. There was hot tea and snacks prepared by the servants on the coffee table.

There wasn’t any fruit, not even a slice of lemon. Her use of too much force made me feel that there wouldn’t be any peace tonight.

“I heard you’ve arranged to collect candies with Prince Heller.”

My mother kindly poured me a cup of tea. “Speaking of which, the two princes are lovable. The rarest thing is their sense of responsibility. It’s rare to see such qualities at their age—for example, your brother. God, 1 wished I hadn’t given birth to him at all. I was so worried every day!”

“Is that so? But Alfred seems very calm now. He has done well in the army and was awarded the title of an excellent trainee. This is enough to show that people could always change as they grow. Perhaps it would be the same for the princes?”

“I think it will only get better.” My mother smiled elegantly. “From a responsible boy to a responsible man.”

I didn’t reply.

“Friendship is a wonderful thing, isn’t it? Her Majesty and 1 had a wonderful fate. I never thought that I would be able to make friends with the princess. Even now, I feel lucky. Sincere feelings are always difficult, especially for people like us. True feelings are a luxury.

“Prince Yarin is very concerned about you. He is a child passionate about his friends, but not everyone can win his favor. He put himself in danger to save you. So reckless and so romantic,” my mother said pointedly.

“It will be a pity to lose this friendship, so 1 hope you can consider my proposal, Lily. Transfer to the Lycan pack, where life is better. You can ask Prince Yarin to hang out more often, and you won’t lose this precious friend.”

I didn’t want to stay any longer. I put down the teacup and said stiffly, “Maybe, but I’m tired and don’t want to continue this topic. I’m going to rest. Good night.”

As soon as 1 turned around, my mother called out to me, “Lily, be obedient and sit down.”

I ignored her. She suddenly shouted, “I said sit down!”

I sneered and turned around. “I think you should rest too, Mother. Staying up late will disrupt your hormones and make your emotions more unstable. I hope you won’t lose your composure in front of the Queen. It’s not good for your genuine friendship.”

“Don’t talk to me like that, Lily. I’m your mother!”

“Oh? Is that so? Actually, I’m not too sure about this because no mother would hint to her daughter to seduce a child!”

My mother looked at me in disbelief and muttered, “Don’t make it sound so bad. We’re just making friends… If I want to keep someone like her, I must pay a price, right?”

“Perhaps, but the price is definitely not to be hypocritical or to have bad intentions.” I looked at her coldly. She didn’t look like my family but like a strange monster. “If you really treat the Queen as a friend, you shouldn’t have said these to me, and you shouldn’t have targeted Yarin. He’s not a tool for you to pursue fame and fortune.”

“That’s because you don’t understand. You’re not in my position. You don’t know how difficult it is to protect everything now.”

This time, it was my mother’s turn to sneer. She looked at me as if she was looking at a wild dog that could not be tamed.

“Of course, Her Majesty is my friend, but her status is the Queen. Do you know what this means? Not only is this friendship not a bonus, but I must avoid suspicion many times. Better positions, more benefits, more useful relationships, 1 had to watch them slip away before me.

“However, they are the most important to maintain this huge family. This is something that pure friendship cannot give. You must be more eager than others to get everything you can easily get.”

I didn’t believe a single word she said. “Don’t make yourself sound so pitiful. Doesn’t the Queen give you other compensation? If not, why did the Silver Moon Pack become the first city to be opened to the public? Why did the Silver Moon Pack receive so many preferential policies? You just don’t want to admit your greed.

“Just like how you refuse to admit that you didn’t send Alfred to the military camp for any training, but because the vanity fair couldn’t satisfy you, and you wanted more power that you didn’t have before!”

“So what?!” She screamed and interrupted me. “Power, status, and money. These are the cornerstone of our families’ survival. Had the Woof Anka family not prospered before? However, without these, they are nothing. They collapsed instantly!” My mother shouted loudly about the rationality of her actions. At this moment, she was no longer elegant or even ferocious. She was more like a crying child, irrational and unable to distinguish right from wrong.

“So, you think I can benefit my family more?” 1 said softly, “For example, if I befriend the prince like you did the Queen. In fact, it would be best if 1 could hook up with him and become the princess consort or simply a mistress, as long as I can get more benefits for the family?”

My mother stopped shouting and looked at me with an emotionless expression.

“You’d better give up,” I said.

“I don’t want to, so you’ll never get what you want..”
