**Elizabeth's POV***At Elroy's stunned gaze, I continued, "I knew that defeating the immature princess was my limit. I can't beat those adult giant wolves, no matter what. But that doesn't stop me from teaching them to explore their limits.""I'm confident I can be their instructor not because I'm stronger than they are, but because I know more than they do.""Elroy, when you think of me as more than just your beautiful useless doll, I will not only surprise you, I will shock you."Elroy became silent. The way he looked at me seemed to have changed. For so long, he had looked at me with a condescending, doting gaze until this moment when he began to look at me seriously."I see, Elizabeth."I finally felt respected by Elroy instead of being teased like a pet or a doll.Led by the king, I made my way to the warrior camp.The king announced that I would be their combat training instructor. Under the king's majesty, no one dared to raise any objection.They just looked at me with shock
**Elizabeth's POV***Two huge bodies rushed toward each other. I could even feel the ground shaking.The two swords clashed together with a heart-pounding sound. Elroy's strength was obviously not as great as that of the warrior. His sword was pressed lower and lower by his opponent.But Elroy remembered what I had told him earlier: Don't compare strength with your opponent.He spun outward on his toes, then deliberately tilted his sword downward. As the warrior stumbled, he slashed his palm.Elroy tried to get the warrior's sword off, but the warrior was apparently not the inexperienced Princess Shirley. The warrior took a few steps back at once to avoid Elroy's attack.The odor of blood made the atmosphere begin to change. It now looked like a real battle.Both of them had beast-like eyes that wanted to tear each other apart.The warrior roared and swung his sword at Elroy's arm, and Elroy dodged nimbly while not forgetting to find an opportunity to attack.They tested, defended, a
**Elizabeth's POV***I was so shocked that I couldn't speak. I froze for at least five seconds before making a sound."So, it was Alpha Galen who tried to kill you, and then blamed it all on the Giant Wolf? Oh, my moon goddess, thankfully, you survived. Isidore, you should expose your brother's conspiracy. You should show all the Winged Wolves that Galen is a lie-filled liar.""I'm sorry, but I can't do that."Isidore pushed my hand away, "I can't go see him. As soon as he sees me, he'll kill me immediately.""Isidore, I understand that you are scared. But if you give up accusing Alpha Galen, the war will not stop. Many giant and Winged Wolves are losing their lives in the war every second."I tried to persuade him."I know you must think I'm a coward. It's not that I'm afraid, but my accusations are completely useless.""My father wanted me to be the new Alpha on his deathbed because I'm an anti-war person like my father. We both want to keep a long-lasting peace with our neighbor, th
**Elizabeth's POV***By dawn, I had come up with a dozen options. I put them down on paper and summoned my maid to take me to the king.However, it was actually Prince Elroy at my summons."Good morning! Lady, may I have the honor of helping you?"He spoke playfully to me as soon as he entered."I want to see the king.""No problem, I'll take you there."Elroy opened his arms towards me.I ducked away from him, "No, no, that's not proper. I want a maid.""All right."Elroy dropped his hand in disappointment, "But before you go, you need to fulfill your promise.""What promise?"I was confused."A kiss, "Elroy pointed to his cheek, "Before I fought the warrior, you promised me a kiss if I won.""No, I didn't promise that. You said that yourself!"My eyes widened."Are you trying to renege? If you renege, I won't let you go out."Elroy stood in front of me and didn't let me leave."Stop it, Elroy, I have something very important to discuss with the king.""Fine. I'll allow you not to kiss me
**Elroy's POV***"Great! Give it to me now!"I reached for the necklace, but my father blocked my hand with his scepter."Wait, don't rush. I can lend it to Elizabeth, but it comes with a premise.""What's the premise?""The premise is that Elizabeth has to be our family. Do you understand what I mean, my son?"My heart began to beat faster, and my gut told me that my father was thinking the same thing I was thinking."You mean you want me to marry Elizabeth, right?"I asked, stumbling over my words."That's right!"My father tapped the ground with his scepter in delight."Once you marry Elizabeth, we'll be family. I can lend her the precious green crystal necklace, or even gift it to her. She can also stay in our grassland forever. It's a win-win situation."Listening to my father's depiction of a bright future, I actually didn't know what to say except to smirk. It seemed like my tongue wouldn't even move."I just heard the servant report that you two kissed on the road, right?"My fat
**Elizabeth's POV***Over the next few days, I heard that the war had been suspended and that Alpha Galen had offered to negotiate with the king.To my surprise, the king invited me to join him at the negotiation table.At the negotiation table, Alpha Galen finally revealed his true purpose. He no longer mentioned avenging his brother but asked the king to divide half of the grassland for the winged wolves to live in, and they would never start a war again.The king, of course, would not be foolish to agree. We have already grasped the weakness of the winged wolf. We both held each other in check. If the war continues, the winged wolves will also suffer very serious losses. Now the competition is who can bear the loss more."If you are not willing to give up territory to atone for your sins, then we will not stop our attack on the grassland!"" Suit yourself. You'd better not build your castle too close to the palace. Otherwise, my warriors will throw stones as soon as they see a lar
**Elizabeth's POV***"No! No! Elizabeth can't be a spy! She's my mate!" Elroy rushed to me and opened his arms wide to protect me."Elroy! Get back here! She's a winged wolf! She fooled us!""No! She's a giant wolf! She's my mate! I trust her! I won't let you hurt her!"I always thought Elroy just treated me like a fun pet or toy. I couldn't believe Elroy would defy his father's orders and turn his sword on his own kind for me.He believed in me so much that he was willing to take on the whole world.I was so moved that I shed tears. But my tears were also boiling hot. It evaporated at the moment it came out of my eyes."Elizabeth! Run! Run!" Elroy shouted back at me.I looked deeply at him, then fled, clutching the green crystal.Maybe I should drop the Green Crystal. But my intuition told me that this green crystal had a close connection with my wolf. It might have something to do with my origin.If I put down the necklace now, the power I have gained may disappear. They will not g
**Elroy's POV***My father and I I were out of breath by the time we climbed to the top floor of the library.My father glared at me, "I haven't been to the top floor in centuries. If you hadn't brought Elizabeth back to the grassland, I wouldn't have had to suffer this at all.""Dad, there must be some kind of misunderstanding. Elizabeth is not...""Shut up! You had better pray that those ancient books have something written inside about the Green Crystal. Otherwise, you're a sinner among the giant wolves!"I closed my mouth. I did feel scared, even though I trusted Elizabeth. If she left with the green crystal from then on, all the giant wolves would lose their power and a thousand-year life span.In silence, my father and I took a kerosene lamp and searched the top floor of the library for books related to the Green Crystal.I found nothing, but my father seemed to have found something. After he finished reading the text in the ancient book, he dropped the kerosene lamp on the flo
