The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 646 - AN INTERESTING YOUNG GIRL

Chapter 646 - AN INTERESTING YOUNG GIRL

Lilac decided to go out of the castle, to find something edible to eat. But, she immediately realized that she had to sneak in order to go out of the castle. Because people would notice her unfamiliar face once she strolled out of the north wing. She didn't know exactly what she should do?

Despite her complicated relationship with Jedrek, she was on an important mission. That was why she was there, living in his castle. So that it would be easier for her, if ever she needed to see the Lycan King. She was sent there to make him aware of the upcoming war. But it was clear to see that Jedrek seemed to have completely ignored all about what she had to say. He thought it was none of his business.

Actually, if she wanted to meet the white lycan, she could. For her, it was rather an easy thing to do. She could just go and wreck some havoc like a couple days ago. And ultimately, Jedrek would absolutely run in his beast form to capture her, or fight her—that sounded more like him. But after what happened between them last night, she was reluctant to see him.

However, that was not her priority now, she just needed to go out for groceries and then come back after, right? But in order to go out, it would likely involve some pinning down actions, and fighting some wolves and lycans. So, to make it simple, leaving the castle, and returning discreetly wasn't a good idea either. Lilac knew that it would be impossible.

The girl was pacing back and forth, thinking about any options that she had for a solution. She gave up, and had to accept her fate of eating only apples. But then, she heard someone was approaching her direction. She turned to her combat mode. She armed herself with the vines, and roots coiling around her hands.

The man approached her with a smile on his face. A frown formed on Lilac's forehead when she watched the friendly gesture that he gave. "Good morning," Tordoff greeted her. He was unfazed with Lilac's combat mode, but wise enough to stop walking a few meters away from her.

"My morning was great before you came," said Lilac. Tordoff chuckled upon hearing her sharp remark, and didn't even bother to reply back. "Who are you?" asked Lilac, while trying to learn her surroundings, she could be ambushed if she wasn't careful enough.

"I am one of Jedrek's seven generals. I believe we fought the other day." He still appeared friendly to Lilac, while looking unoffended by the way she answered him. Well, he wouldn't expect to see her being delighted to have a chat with someone she just fought three days ago.

"Yes, I remember. The six of you ganged up on me at the same time, how gentleman!" This time, Tordoff's face scrunched as he took Lilac's sarcasm. He realized that his new assignment wouldn't be boring at all. Because, he had to deal with all of her snarky attitudes from now on. He needed to start to get used to it.

"I am sorry about that," he didn't sound to be sorry for anything. "But, actually you outnumbered us with your vines and roots."

"Ha haha, how funny!" Lilac laughed scornfully, but then her expression hardened. "What do you want?"

"I am here because of an order." Tordoff admitted it truthfully.

"Who sent you? Maximus?" That was the only name that crossed her mind.

"Maximus?" Tordoff tilted his head. When he did so, he didn't look like a fierce general that Lilac came across three days ago. He looked more like a young, carefree, regular guy. "Why would he have anything to do with this?"

Lilac scrunched her nose and shrugged her shoulder. "I don't know, he was the one who told me to stay here."

If Tordoff was surprised, he wouldn't show it on his face.?Then he resumed with his wolfish smile, "I don't know that Maximus was the one who offered this place for you." However, Tordoff made sure to let Jedrek know about this in his upcoming report. "But, his choice was not bad at all, since almost no one would come to this side of the castle."

Lilac tried to see if he was lying, but she knew he was not. "So, who ordered you to come here?"

"His Majesty himself, the Alpha King." He replied sternly. She chuckled in disbelief upon hearing his answer. "Jedrek?"

Tordoff slightly frowned by the way she addressed his Alpha. "Well, that is his name, yes."

"Why is it? He wants to apologize by sending you here?" Lilac was surprised by what was happening now. What is it? A kiss could actually change his mind overnight?

"Why should he?" Tordoff blinked his eyes innocently, before he explained himself. "I am here to guard you."

"Guard me?" Lilac repeated his strange statement in confusion. But then, she realized the intention behind it. "Oh wait, you mean guard me like a prisoner?" she scoffed. "Well, thanks. But, I don't need a bodyguard. I am more than capable of taking care of myself, and we both know that."

The roots and vines flared, creating a halo form around her body. A smirk crept on Lilac's lips upon seeing that the general was slightly taken aback.

"Woah! Easy!" He held both his hands in front of him. "I am not here to settle scores with you."

Lilac raised her eyebrows. "Oh really?"

"And you are not a prisoner, His Majesty the Alpha King said that you are free to roam around the castle." Tordoff couldn't take his eyes off of the vines, and the roots around Lilac. He didn't fear it, instead he was amazed by it. "But, of course, there are places that you are not allowed to enter."

Tordoff looked at Lilac carefully this time. He thought that she was an interesting young girl. She was so free with her emotions, and her face showed everything she was feeling. She had no inhabitations, completely confident in who, and what she was. The general almost didn't believe that the girl in front of him was the rumored weak guardian angel. She could be anything, but weak, she was not.

"Good.?? Lilac nodded, she was not over the moon with what Tordoff just said. There must be something wrong somewhere, and she was more than willing to figure it out. It became more suspicious now since Jedrek was behind this order. There was no way he would go easy on her, right? "Now, I want to go to the city center. Can I go and come back as I please?"

"Sure," Tordoff replied almost immediately. "But, may I know what you want to do there?"

"Buy some food," Lilac said, shrugging her shoulder.

"You can get any food that you want here."

"I will not eat anything that is provided by my enemy."

Unexpectedly, Tordoff laughed. "You're funny."

"Excuse me, but, which part of my words was funny to you?"
