The Abandoned Lycan Queen 16 Chapter 16 Elena's POV I looked at him sheepishly and just laughed my embarrassment off, hoping he'd forget about this soon enough.
Just in time, though, one of the warriors cwith a wooden basket filled with food and placed it down on the table.
"Do you need anything else, Prince?" he asked as he put two canteen bottles of water in front of us.
"No," he simply replied and raised his hand as a gesture that he could leave.
The warrior gave us a small bow before he turned and left.
"Do you eat this kind of food?" he asked while unpacking the things from the basket. Leaning in, I took a closer look, and a smile formed on my lips as I saw the familiar delectable foods especially made for battles for both convenience and nutrients.
There were four kinds of MRE in there, which was an abbreviation for Meal Ready-to-Eat foods. Basically, it's a small pouch containing one meal. If you dip it in water, the self- heating pad inside it will activate, and it will cook by itself within minutes.
And voila, there's rice and dish.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAside from that, there were also sfreshly harvested fruits and baked potatoes from the nearby forest. "Are you kidding me? These are awesome!" I shouted as I grabbed the MREs and started dipping them in the basin with water beside us.
He let out a small smile of amusement as he prepared the fruits. He watchedas I prepared the MRES effortlessly. "You don't look like a Luna." I halted and looked at him questioningly.
He stopped cutting the apples and bananas. While holding the small knife, he shook his head. "You're indeed an apprentice of Custodes." Nodding my head to gesture at him cutting the fruits and placing the utensils and plates on the table, I commented, "You don't look like a prince as well." "Well, minus the fact that you act scary and dominant," I added jokingly in a small voice as I 1/4 < Chapter 16 unwrapped and poured the MRES on the plates he prepared.

"Damn! He looks hot!" Ava commented, feeling giddy as she jumped around in my mind.
I bit my inside cheeks, and I tried to hide the smile in me.
His eyes were captivating, and the way he looked and spoke, with his monotonous and deep voice, was like a soul catcher that could make any woman swoon.
"But we're not any woman," my wolf pridefully said.
"And yet, there you are already swooning," I teased.
"I'm so not! It's you!" Our teasing session ended when Prince Deacon pushed the canteen of water in front of me. Keep eating, and don't doze off. You need to replenish your nutrients after that long run." Touched that he was paying enough attention, I smiled happily as I grabbed my spoon and continued eating one after another until I felt full.
"Oh, that's heaven!" I commented satisfyingly as I leaned back on the pole besideas a foundation of the tent and rubbed the suddenly appearing bump on my tummy from all the food I ate.
Imagine, I've finished two MRES. TWO! He shook his head. "You're easily satisfied. It's not a Michelin meal." "It's not, but it's the sfood my family and I would eat when we were out far to train," I replied, happily reminded of those memories when my family was still complete.
"I'm sorry about what happened to your father and brothers," he said, still unaware of the m******e my entire pack had faced.
I gave him a forced smile and nodded. "It's not your fault." It's not, but I'm bound to find who was behind that dreadful event. And whoever the culprit was, I'd make sure they paid the price.
33 "Prince... Luna Elena..." The swarrior who brought us the meal cin again and greeted 1. us.
"We've finished the preparation for Luna Elena's stay." 214 < Chapter 16 I looked at Prince Deacon in surprise.
My place? Would that mean he already agreed to my stay? Rejoice filled my heart.
"So... I can stay..." I started saying, suppressing my joy and the urge to jump in joy.

"I've had them arrange you a room, but we don't have any female Omega in here. All of us here were males. '1 e.
hope you don't mind," he thoughtfully said as a male Omega cin and gavea bow, even looking a bit hesitant. I smiled calmly and waved my hand casually. "Oh, it's okay. I don't need anyone to serve me." "But thank you, I appreciate the thought," I said, shifting my eyes back and forth from Prince Deacon and the Omega.
"But..."
I raised my hand and laughed a little.
"I've been alone this past three days in the forest without enough food and clothes; I'm not a weak she-wolf, Prince Deacon. I'll manage." His eyes then narrowed as if he suddenly realized something.
He raised his head and dismissed the warrior and the Omega before hen looked back atand pointedly asked, "Did my brother know that you chere?" I swallowed. He finally caught on.
If the King knew, there's no way he'd sendhere without an escort or even enough supply to last for my entire journey.
"I..." I blinked a couple of times and looked at him cautiously before I replied, "Well... I actually chere... secretly." "Have you lost your mind?" he shouted, joltingin surprise from my seat.
He's angry. No... he's furious! "I... Well..." I took a deep breath and composed myself. "He didn't believe me, and I think this matter is urgent, so..." "How could you do this? What were you thinking?" he asked, standing as he towered overwith both his hands on the table.
