"Oh, I see," said Lily after her father finished explaining. She then looked at Nicholas. "So Your Majesty want to make peace with us since you need our strength to fight the Obsidian Sand Pack?"
Lily's words sounded like accusations that Nicholas' real intention in bringing them to peace was because Nicholas wanted to take advantage of them.
Nicholas smiled and tried to respond calmly to Lily's words. The girl looked smart.
"Not taking advantage but we need each other."
"Then His Majesty just wants us to cooperate, but His Majesty doesn't want to make peace."
"Wrong. I really want to make peace with you and all the lycans."
"Should we believe that?"
"Certainly."
"Why?"
Rad who sat in the middle seat glanced alternately at Lily and Nicholas who sat on the chair to his left and right.
