I kept my eyes on the boy leaning lazily against the tree, my gaze tracing the calm lines of that angelic face that seemed almost too perfect to belong to an ordinary person.
Werewolves were beautiful creatures by nature, and everyone knew that much. It was difficult for a werewolf to be truly ugly unless fate had been particularly cruel, and in my life I had seen countless people whose appearances could easily turn heads in any gathering. Yet the boy standing there was different in a way that was difficult to ignore.
His face could rival anyone’s without effort. It was the kind of beauty that made women jealous and forced men to glance twice despite themselves. Looking at him almost felt like staring at something carefully crafted by the moon goddess herself, as though she had taken extra time shaping every detail until the result embodied the very definition of beauty.
The man before me was undeniably beautiful.
And I had learned that young girls these days had a strange fondness for beautiful things.
Was that the reason my little sister had become so obsessed with him that she was willing to risk her life for his sake? Was it simply because he looked like that?
The thought made a faint frown settle on my face.
Not only had Chloe unleashed every ounce of her spiritual power to try to defeat me, but I had also heard that he had spent the entire night saving her life afterward. The memory of it made my eyes darken as the murmurs of the crowd faded into meaningless noise around me.

That weapon had always responded to my anger, almost like a living creature waiting for permission to act, and it had been a very long time since I had felt the kind of irritation now stirring in my chest.
I hated the idea that someone of such low standing could affect me this way, and the fact that he had stopped my whip so effortlessly that day only made the irritation worse.
Still, I could not deny the truth.
Even though I disliked him, I could not deny that he was strong.
Anyone who had been fighting since childhood learned to recognize a threat when they saw one, and Noah was very clearly a threat. I still remembered the moment when he had looked at me after I injured Chloe. There had been real killing intent in his eyes, something raw and terrifying that made it obvious he would not have stopped until one of us was dead II Yara and Kauis had not stepped in at that moment, the situation would have turned into a fight neither of us could casily walk away from
My fingers closed around the handle of my whip as my gaze remained fixed on him.
I wanted to kill him.
More than that, I wanted to see who would win if we truly fought without anyone interfering
The whip began to slowly loosen from around my waist, the dark coil sliding slightly as if eager to be released, but just as is started to unfold, someone stepped quietly behind me.
My guard bowed her head respectfully before speaking,

“Please don’t, Your Highness.”
I paused, though my eyes never left Noah.

“My lord.” she continued carefully, “your uncle will not appreciate it if you start another fight outside the official challenges, especially after what happened yesterday with your sister. He was busy then, but I am certain he will not ignore it if something like that happens again.”
Her voice lowered slightly as she added, “Especially with him.”
She glanced toward Noah briefly before returning her gaze to the ground.
