The Abandoned Lycan Queen 18 Chapter 18 Elena's POV I heard the synchronized footsteps of warriors taunting nearby and instantly woke up. After blinking for a while, I stretched out and sighed as I looked around.
Because I was exhausted from all the running for the past three days, I went straight to bed after Prince Deacon left and slept, so I didn't have enough tto check out the place.
The bed I was on was smaller than the one in the Prince's tent. Unlike the one in Prince Deacon's, the ground didn't have any floorings, but the lighting, tables, and chairs were almost the same.
What I found notable was that there was a separator on one of the corners to hidewhen I was changing, which I very much appreciated.
Since they were all men, none needed it, so I reckon they probably made it in haste for me. It's made of wood and large leaves and straws.
I've changed into comfortable pants and a simple shirt and still paired it with my combat boots.
Just in time, as I finished changing, someone called out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Luna Elena? This is Beta Tyson, and I'm here to call you for a meal." I cout, and a gentleman in his 30s with a beard and long hair bowed to greet me. Though his hair was tied back, a few strands of his hair were loose in front of his face.
"Nice to meet you, Beta Tyson." It was the first tI saw him.
He gestured through the way, and I followed him toward the massive open tent where many of the warriors were eating.
"Oh, no need. I can do this." I smiled at him in gratitude as I grabbed the MRE from him and prepared it myself. "Where's Prince Deacon? Won't he have his breakfast?" I asked when I looked around and didn't find him.
"The prince's schedule is always swamped. Aside from patrolling, he's also training the new warriors," he explained.
My spoon stopped mid-way through my meal, and I furrowed my brows in confusion. " 1/3 < Chapter 18 Patrolling?" Does he even patrol by himself? The border warriors could do that.
+8 Points > Beta Tyson nodded his head. "Yes, he said patrolling is an important task. Though we have warriors assigned for that, he'd still do a few rounds daily at random times." Hearing that, I admire him even more. He's very diligent and hard-working. He really takes things seriously.
"Oh, and by the way, Luna. Two of your friends arrived today. They're already at the main camp being inspected." My face instantly brightened up upon hearing that.
"Really?" When he nodded, I started eating faster, excited about seeing my friends. It felt like forever since I last saw them.
"Hey! Slayer! We miss you!" A woman with shag brown hair whose wearing warrior clothes ran towardand immediately engulfedin an embrace.
"I missed you too, Maise," I coughed up after almost being strangled to death by her death trap embrace.
"Oohhh, there's a lot of hotties here," Saige uttered in excitement as she winked, causingto laugh while Maise almost gagged.
Saige had long red hair wrapped in a bun. Though she wore warrior clothes, her belly button and waist were bare. We tease her sometimes and call her the Honey Trap because of her beauty, and she sure knows how to use her charm.
Though she's deadly with her fist, she's way more deadly once she starts trapping men in her inescapable trap of charm.
"Finally, we're here! In the flesh!" We had our arms around each other's shoulders as we stood in line, looking far at the entire camp.
All three of us were apprentices who trained in Custodes, and it's our dream to fight in a battle and give our share of skills, but when I got married, the two of them also stayed behind, waiting for my comeback.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'll leave you first to catch up." 2/3 < Chapter 18 I sheepishly looked at Beta Tyson, who was still in front of me. "Thank you." +8 Points > "Oh, do you happen to know where the recruitment is taking place?" I asked before he left.
He looked a little hesitant for a while but then nodded. "It's on the east side of the main camp. "Here, have these." I pushed sMREs to Maise's and Saige's side as they sat with me.
At first, our table was filled with laughter and reminiscences, but then it becfilled with fury as I narrated what had happened to my wrecked marriage.
"Those homewreckers!" Maise slammed her fist on the table where everything moved, and those around us glanced at it.
"Chill out," I said in a calm voice and gestured around us.
"How could we calm down when that bastard and wanna be Duna treated you like that? Saige replied instead. Maise then clenched her hands and started stretching it like she was ready for a fight. "I swear, I'd teach those two a lesson they'll never forget when I see them."
"Alright, that's enough. On to the good stuff," I said excitedly trying t change the subject as I The content Ve is on novelenglish.net! stood up and grabbed their hands.
They both looked atwith questions, but I didn't answer them and just pulled them toward the recruitment area, where we saw a long queue of unlisted warriors trying to apply.
"Now, this is what I'm talking about." Maise finally cdown and queued with me.
Our hearts were pumping with excitement as our dreams were not at arm's reach, but it all shuttered when we reached the recruiter who scrutinizingly stared at each of us with prejudice as he mercilessly said the words we never thought we'd hear as a Custodes apprentices. "You're not qualified. Leave!"
