“If you’re like Courtney, I’m afraid that I’m the one who’s really in a difficult position,” Michael said.

I looked at Michael in confusion. “She is part of the royal Lycan family and a member of the werewolf court. I’m sure she’ll be accepted by the royal family more easily than me.”

Michael smiled and said, “She didn’t work in the werewolf court before. In fact, she used to be a werewolf hunter.”

“What?” I looked at Michael in shock.

The she-wolf incident that Michael and I have been investigating was actually to track down the tracks of the werewolf hunters. Courtney was undoubtedly on our side. How did she get involved with the werewolf hunter?

Also, in my impression, werewolf hunters were a group of despicable and shameless b*stards who viewed life as nothing. They put benefits above all else and did whatever it took to get what they wanted. They didn’t care if their actions would harm the interests of others.

Even though I hadn’t had much contact with Courtney, I could be sure that it wasn’t the kind of person that Courtney was.

On the other hand, I could hear from Michael’s description that he had a certain respect for his brother’s mate. If Courtney was really a bad person, why would Michael have such an attitude toward her?

“You don’t have to be so agitated.” Michael explained, “She used to be a hunter. However, after discovering the shameful behavior of some of the werewolf hunters, she took the initiative to leave the organization. She vowed to eliminate all the parasites in the werewolf hunters.”

I still felt that it was unbelievable. The werewolf hunter represented evil, but now he was telling me there were good people among them.

Then, I realized a more serious problem.

The werewolf hunters were not a recognized organization or group. Other than their spontaneous hunting, they had almost no connection to any pack.

To a certain extent, they were no different from the exiled werewolves. The royal Lycan pack would not allow such a person to be the mate of their heir.

“It seems like you’ve also realized the point.” A mocking smile appeared on Michael’s face.

“But how did she meet your brother?” I asked, puzzled.

“I don’t know how exactly it happened.” Michael spread his hands and said, “In short, when I saw them, they were already tied together by the mate connection. And my brother’s determination is also unyielding. They will live together and die together.”

“Live and die together?” I asked in surprise.

“You may not be able to imagine how serious the situation was. All the nobles of the royal family opposed this. They said they could not tolerate a werewolf hunter becoming the future Queen, as it would shame the entire royal family.”

Uh, hehe. Although I felt that this was a little too much, I could understand the thoughts of those who opposed it.

Even the werewolf packs would find it hard to accept a werewolf hunter as their Luna, let alone the royal Lycan pack. Even if the Alpha didn’t object, the elders in the pack, who usually didn’t care about the world, would probably jump in anger. This was a shocking fact.

I peeked at Michael’s face, and he didn’t seem to care at all. In fact, there was even some disgust in his eyes for those people.

“My brother has been raised as the successor since he was young. Everything about him is my father’s pride. He did whatever Father asked him to do, making me look down on him for a time. I felt he wanted King’s position so much that he lost himself. However, when this happened, it made me have a completely different opinion of him.”

A hint of admiration appeared in Michael’s eyes.

“What happened?” I asked curiously.

“Brandon brought Courtney to the royal Lycan pack and announced to everyone that she was his mate and that he would marry her as his Crown Consort. There was an uproar, and even my father, who had always been most satisfied with my brother, expressed disappointment that there was no room for discussion on this matter.”

“And then?” I asked.

“Things got more and more serious. At first, some people said they wanted to drive Courtney out, but later, some said they wanted to kill her to warn the werewolf hunters. Some people even suggested they could use Courtney to destroy the werewolf hunters’ lair. In short, no one agreed to this. They even wanted to force Courtney to stay there forever.”

The disgust on Michael’s face intensified, and his eyes were filled with ridicule.

“Then, Brandon transformed into this wolf form in front of everyone, saying that he would protect Courtney with his life. He bared his teeth at everyone, including my father,” Michael said indifferently.

It was hard for me to fully imagine the scene with just a few words from Michael, but it must have been shocking. The royal family’s Lycan Prince had turned against his father for a woman. This was like a fairy tale, and Courtney was his Princess.
