Chapter 199 Another Imposter

“Commander Landon, I want you over on the left side, and General Vandough, you’ll take the right.” Ethan pointed to the map to indicate each wing’s accurate location. And the center”

| stood up and interrupted him, “-I’ll lead the center!”

Ethan didn’t immediately reject my proposal, but I could see the disapproval in his eyes. We hadn’t talked since last night, but right then, both of us knew we had more important responsibilities to attend to.

Normally, Ethan would certainly be leading the attack. The problem was that he hadn’t fully recovered yet.

While the Moonlight Lily woke him from his coma, for some reason, Ethan seemed to have lost control of his own physical strength. Sometimes he would break a tree as easy as snapping fingers, but sometimes he couldn’t even maintain his wolf.

Cerina and the elders were looking into the cause of it, but so far they hadn’t found anything.

I reasoned with him, “I’ll lead the center. For a few reasons. First, i’m the White Queen, and me being there could raise morale. Second, Talon and Georgia will be with me, and you shouldn’t have any concerns about my safety. Third, it’s easier to communicate with the left and right wings if I’m there to use mindlink with Commander Landon and General Vandough.”

I watched him press his lips together, wanting to say something. When he spoke again, though, he didn’t object to my proposal. Instead, he continued with the plan, making sure we had all of our troops spread out in the most effective manner possible, and then we went out to position the warriors.

Rather than waiting for the enemies to come to us, we moved out to meet them. This was the first battle after we decided to go on the offensive.

I stayed in my human form alongside Georgia at first, wanting to make sure every warrior on our side of the field could see me and hear me.

As the wolves howled, the two sides charged toward each other and wolves collided. This wasn’t the first time the two armies fought, but it was my first time leading a fully bloomed battle.

Blood, fur, dirt, howls, and whimpers… everything started to mix together, all I could see was hundreds and thousands of unnecessary demise. However, it wasn’t time for me to get sentimental.

When I saw a large female wolf attacking one of my already wounded warriors, I shifted and rushed over to help, hitting her in the

side and knocking her away from the male wolf that was struggling to his feet.

The she-wolf turned back toward me, baring her teeth as she snarled. I wasn’t as big as she was, but I knew I was stronger When she came toward me, I stepped to the side and dodged her, spinning around to grab her by the back leg. I bit down and yanked as hard as I could, ripping her muscle and tasting her blood in my mouth. She yelped and twirled her head around, trying to get her teeth into me.

Using my front legs, I knocked her down and then leaped on top of her. With her squirming beneath me, trying to get free, I held her in place with my paws and used my snout to force her to turn her head so that I could pierce my teeth into her neck.

It wasn’t easy, but I managed to make her tip her head out of the way, and then, as I was about to clamp down on her neck, she whimpered.

In that split second, as she almost broke free, a knife cut through her throat and blood coated my white far.

“Focus, Rosalie!” Georgia shouted at me. It’s not the time to let down your guard.”

I nodded my wolf head to her and ran to high ground to survey the field.

We were winning, that was for certain. I could see that we were driving the enemy back. It was quite clear to me that King Kal’s forces were much weaker now than they had been before the major attack when Ethan had tricked them into falling into that oily pit.

I did not see Behar or Madalynn; it appeared as if they weren’t anywhere on the battlefield.

I didn’t see King Kal either, but that wasn’t unusual. He usually stayed in the very back of the forces and directed them.

Then our plan to converge and come together on the other side of the woods should work, and hopefully would trap King Kal’s men in between, making it difficult for them to get away.

I let Commander Landon and General Vandough continue to lead their sides in battle and stayed back, observing. If I saw anything that concerned me, I would let them know via mindlink, but it was clear that the battle had proceeded as planned, so I was content to let them do what they did best-command the troops in the field.copy right hot novel pub
