Lily’s POV:

My heart was in turmoil.

There was nothing else i could do. I knew this was already doomed when 1 completed my transfer procedures.

I didn’t care where i go to school. I was not a talented student, and 1 didn’t have many friends in school. However, this was not as simple as changing schools.

My mother put it nicely, ‘I can’t do anything about it’. If she really couldn’t do anything about it, why would she be so arrogant to decide whether 1 should stay or leave?

It was a sarcastic remark.

I believed my grandfather wouldn’t have agreed to this plan, so my mother secretly did it behind his back. I might be able to report it to him now, but so what? My mother would announce this, and his grandfather would know about it. What could he do after knowing? Nothing could be changed. He couldn’t persuade my mother, and he couldn’t even cancel the transfer.

A mother could make decisions for her underage daughter, but a grandfather could not make decisions for his granddaughter and bypass the mother. This law had been written for thousands of years.

I was thinking about how to solve my current predicament, but my poor brain couldn’t give me any solutions. Every path told me that it was impossible. My struggle to resist was a small matter in my mother’s eyes. She didn’t even have to care about anything. It was easy for her to pack me up and transport me to the Lycan pack.

Perhaps i could expose her ambition to the Queen?

It might work, but it would affect others. What about my grandfather? What about Alfred? They worked diligently for the werewolves. Did they deserve to be implicated by ambitious people?

And… Yarin.

I had no romantic feelings for him, but at least we were friends. Was it right to expose a child to such a conspiracy? Would he feel disgusted and afraid because of this? Would his emotions be affected by this? Would this traumatize him?

How should 1 face him again?

1 didn’t know. Maybe there was no solution to these concerns at all.

My mother was indeed an excellent politician. She knew that some conspiracies were born never to be exposed. She told me about it because she was sure I could never tell anyone. She knew me so well, as if 1 was always by her side, never far away.

Or maybe she understood people well, and 1 was just another insignificant person among them.

Was that why she let me leave home? Because she knew that I could never run away when she needed me?

I decided not to do what she said, but I knew I had to keep her secret.

I was helpless and alone.

“Lily, come down quickly!” She called me from downstairs and acted as if nothing had happened, and I had no choice but to cooperate with her.

Yarin seemed to be in high spirits, and there was no problem at all. The results of the examination must be gratifying. He said it was just a small problem and would heal in less than a month.

After leaving the prince, we paid a visit to Heller. He was still sound asleep and did not notice the arrival of others.

We chatted quietly beside him.

“Heller is usually a light sleeper. He would wake up at any moment.” Yarin said. “He’s really tired today. I think this trip made him regret it.”

“Maybe!” i thought about it, took a handful of candy from my pocket, and placed it on the bed. “I hope these will make him happy.”

Yarin picked one up and looked at it, exclaiming in excitement, “It’s a limited-edition candy! One, two, three… There are a total of fifteen flavors! Oh my god, how did you do it?”

“Actually, I didn’t get that much, but 1 exchanged a lot with the other children. Using my extra flavor to exchange for someone else’s extra flavor or a few ordinary ones for a special one, it didn’t take long for me to gather all the pieces.”

“Heavens…”

He held the candy in his palm, his eyes sparkling as he said gently, “Thank you, Lily. Heller will be very happy when he wakes up. I know that many kids have been tired of collecting them. However, for Heller, it’s his first time doing this. It will be a warm memory for the rest of his life.”

I was a little uncomfortable and muttered, “Don’t be so uptight about it. It’s nothing much. Besides, since I promised him, I don’t want to go back on my words.”

Yarin took a cup from the table and put the candies inside. He then took out his candies from Heller’s coat and put them beside the cup.

“Heller will drink a glass of water habitually when he wakes up,” he said with a smirk.

I just watched silently, quietly feeling the warmth of this moment.

I’d never felt this kind of atmosphere in a family before. Perhaps I did when I was young, but those memories have long disappeared with the collapse of the family. I had my brothers, but 1 couldn’t get close to them.

Looking at Yarin’s smile, i couldn’t help but think of my mother’s plans.

How was that possible?

How could anyone make this warm smile disappear from a child’s face for selfish reasons?

Maybe these people did exist, but i couldn’t and never would..
