“You?” John repeated, his eyebrow flying high.
“But don’t you think you have too much on your plate right now my dear?” Hellen looked at Harper fondly, “You are still dealing with Alpha Daran. I am afraid that you might exhaust yourself…”
“But this is more urgent! You must think of the bigger picture here mother!” Harper cried urgently, “Plus I don’t trust any other stupid and ugly women. None of those sluts are pretty enough to make Casper fall for them. Only I can do it!”
Hellen took her hands and let her sit down.
“So what is your plan my baby girl?” Hellen asked.
“Well…” Harper rolled her eyes, pondering. “Casper had already noticed me when we were in the Riverside Pack. And…”
She bit her lips and smiled sheepishly, “…And he even tried to talk to me in private for a few times.”
“That is great honey!” Paul said, “So did you?”
“No.” Harper snaped, “There is a horrible–looking female soldier in his
pack–Balvina. She always found a way to interrupt us. I think she has a huge crush on Casper. How pathetic!”
“Then it must be an easy win for you, darling.” Hellen patted her daughter’s slim hands. “Those female soldiers, including Janet, are all too strong and masculine for man’s taste. Unlike you, my love, you are delicate, pretty, and lovable. A real little princess.”
A proud smile appeared on Harper’s lips.
She had heard Hellen complimenting her like this many times since she was a child.
Now she was firmly convinced that she was really a princess. And only a woman like her could deserve Daran.
John rested his chin on his hand and looked at his sister, “Hey, what if that Casper dude asks you to sleep with him?“‘
Everyone froze staring at John.
John shrugged, “Don’t look at me. It is possible.”
“If that is what it takes for Casper to forget about Janet…” Harder said firmly, “I will sleep with him!”
Then her heartrate suddenly quickened.
She saw Casper’s body when they went to cliff diving…he looked so muscular and strong…
Her heart was still with Daran with no doubt.
But if Casper insisted to take her to bed, she probably wouldn’t say no.
“I trust you can handle this right,” Helen stroked her daughter’s hair lovingly. “Just don’t let Daran find out that you are sleeping with Casper. You are still going to be Daran’s Luna one day.”
“Certainly mother.” Harper smiled.
She already had a great tactic of how to seduce Casper.
And she had no doubt that he would fall for her in no time…

Three days later, Janet was completely recovered. And she could finally go back to training.
In fact, Janet wanted to start training immediately when she woke up from her coma. But the doctor and Casper stopped her.
Baron, on the other hand, had been hiding in his room all day since the parade. He even skipped the training and asked Maxie to train soldiers on his behalf.
He claimed that he had not fully recovered yet. But most people believed that he was just too embarrassed to face the public after the parade.
On the day of the training, Janet marched into the largest training field.
Although she was severely injured during the competition, it was no doubt that she killed the most preys and was the ultimate winner.
Blood Moon Pack won the best training field.
Before Janet stepped through the front gate, she suddenly saw Maxie walking around the corner.
Looked like Maxie was heading to another training field nearby, the Riverside Pack’s
field.
“Maxie!”
Janet called her name and hurried up to her, “Wait a minute!”
Maxie froze on her stop and turned around.
She was wounded badly by bears. And now for some unknown reason, there was a black circle on her eyes like she was punched in the face.
“Gamma Janet,” she lowered her head.
“Hey. Are you feeling better now?”
“Yes.” Maxie nodded, “And…thank you for standing up to me the other day.” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
“It is no problem. But is there anything that you want to tell me about Baron? How did he force you to take the blames?“!
Maxie paused.
A few moments later, she slowly shook her head, “He didn’t make me. I did those stuffs.”
“Maxie…”
“I should go.” Maxie said lowly, “And don’t talk to me again, Gamma Janet…Gamma Baron won’t be happy about it…”
She turned away and hurried off without looking back.
Janet sighed.
She could only drop this and returned to her own training field.
After gathering all her pack members, Janet first gave a short pep speech to lift people’s spirit.
They were away from their own pack. But she still wanted everyone to behave the best they could like they were at home.
With everyone’s efforts, Janet had no doubt that they would win the next week’s competition again and kept using this field.
All soldiers from Blood Moon Pack roared a “yes.”
Then Janet asked people to spread out and pair up and practice some basic fighting skills.
She walked across the lines and corrected their moves and gestures.
When Janet got to the end of the lines, she found Balvina gazing at a certain
direction distractively.
Janet followed her gaze and found that she was looking at Casper, who happened to have some free time today and came to observe their training.
Janet raised her hand and gently flipped Balvina’s forehead.
“Ouch!”
Balvina turned around covering her forehead looking aggrieved, “What!”
“As the Gamma, I can’t have you looking at another man while training, even if that man is my brother,” Janet said.
She paired up with Balvina and examined Balvina’s fighting.
When it is time for the water break, Janet finally asked her, “So what is the deal with Casper anyway?”
Balvina poured water all over her head and snorted, “Nothing! He was a huge dickhead and fu ckboy. I am totally over him now.”
“…There must be some misunderstandings between you two.”
“There isn’t!” Balvina growled. “After what happened in the forest, I found a time to confront him about our relationship. I asked him what this is and where we are going…”
“And what did he say?” Janet asked.
Balvina gritted, “He said that we are purely physical! He is destined to marry a noble lady or an Alpha’s daughter or at least his own mate. So there is no future between us whatsoever. If I am not happy with this, maybe we should end it now…”
“What?” Janet gasped in shock.
She couldn’t believe Casper would say such cruel stuffs.
Balvina and Casper grew up together in Blood Moon Pack. They knew each other even longer than they knew Janet.
Janet had always believed that Casper had a thing for Balvina.
The worry on his face was real when he found Balvina injured in the woods.
So why would he deny his own feelings?
“I’m telling you. This is it.”
Balvina squeezed the water bottle and smashed it to the ground.
“I am not wasting a single second on that stupid, arrogant, cold, heartless–JERK!” Balvina paused and quickly glanced at Janet, “…No offence.”
“…No. You are totally entitled to say that.” Janet murmured.
She was going to keep asking.
But the corner of her eyes caught something in the distance.
This training field was entirely outdoor.
A fence separated the field from the forest.
A group of people had appeared by the fence. A few servants were busy putting up a tent and setting the table and chairs.
When everything was properly installed, 5-6 girls appeared under the tent and sat down by the table. All of them dressed in beautiful tea–dresses.
“…What the fu ck…” Balvina murmured in disbelief. “What are they doing?”
Those servants brought some biscuits and tea to the table.
“They are having a picnic here?!”
Balvina couldn’t believe this.
“Are these girls crazy? This is a training field for God’s sake! Why on earth-”
“…I have a theory,” Janet said sulkily.
The girl dressed most fancily was Harper.
She was fanning her plumy fan while making eyes at the male soldiers in the training field right now.
