Chapter 72 Correspondence (Nikolas POV)

Qusack finally arrived with a dark-haired Lycan called Shirley. She was pretty, but she could not compete with Aliana or Natasha.

She dressed provocatively in skimpy sheer clothing that left little to the imagination.

I guess Qusack had told her who she would be dining with, and she planned to score. I could see her disappointment when she saw Natasha and Aliana.

Everyone in Forest knew they could not compete with Aliana, where I was concerned, so I figured she had come dressed that way to hold on to Qusack or catch the prince’s attention.

Shirley sat down after greeting us, and Qusack sat with her.

He had an apologetic look showing he was sorry for bringing her along, but it wasn’t his fault. I was the one that insisted that he brings a date.

He had found a way to oblige, so I couldn’t complain.

I noticed Shierly was looking at Aliana and Natasha as if they were beneath her, so I put her in her place so she does not ruin our evening.

“Watch yourself at this table. You are simply here because Beta Qusack invited you. Suppose you condescendingly look at Aliana or Natasha. In that case, you will be punished,” I linked her, not wanting anyone to hear or know what I had told her. Because I did not want our evening to be awkward. I saw her tense up and lower her gaze just as she should.

Ania and Lisa brought in the food ready to serve. They dressed nicely, and Aliana smiled at Ania. Seeing they had all straightened their hair, I believe they did their hair and make-up together. The clothes they wore were good-looking. The dresses were mid-length, and they looked nice and elegant. They did not look like servants at all.

“The two of you are serving tonight?” Qusack asked Ania, and she smiled and nodded.

“Yes, Beta,” she said, then moved to serve me the appetiser while Lisa served the prince and Natasha the appetiser. After serving Aliana and me, Ania served Qusack and Shirley.

Shirley wasn’t nice to Ania, but Ania managed her complaints gracefully. I wondered why Grant sent her for branding. One day I will find out.

“This isn’t a five-star restaurant, Shirley, and you are a guest here,” I warned the girl.

I could see Qusack’s unease.

I wondered why he would bring a Lycan. There were always arrogant and bitchy. I do not believe it is in their nature, but the Unity law gives them the right to be blotchy towards lesser breeds.

I believe it is because werewolves and mixed breeds are more attractive because of their fragile feminine features.

Lycan women are attractive too, but they have a strong masculine element that detracts from the gentle feminine look. That was why most people found werewolves and mixed breeds more attractive.
