[Margaret's Perspective]
"Why are you guys here?" Armstrong asked.
"Well, after the two of you left this afternoon, Elizabeth said she wanted to learn about actual combat in the forest. I thought we wouldn't encounter any danger just walking in the outskirts of the pack, so I brought her along," Anthony explained carefully.
"You want to learn about actual combat?" I asked. I clearly remembered Elizabeth's expression that afternoon when she said she would not let us waste time training her again. Moreover, in the past, she had always preferred all-night gatherings in the Pack House to stepping into the forest.
"I want to do something for the pack, too," Elizabeth said softly as she released Anthony's hand.
I looked at Elizabeth in surprise. She had changed out of the sportswear she was complaining about this afternoon into the familiar "princess" outfit.
