Chapter 173

…Westin?!

Janet’s jaw dropped. She was rendered speechless.

Westin did tell her that one of his men would come and pick her up at the wedding.

But he didn’t say whom exactly.

Janet thought that it would be a servant, or probably a guard…Bur Sir Edwin? The Lycan?!

Her eyes widened as she realized another matter.

Wait, if Edwin was the Lycan and he was Westin’s guy, didn’t it mean that-

“Westin is Lycan?!” she blurted out, utterly shocked.

Edwin smiled.

He put a finger over his lips and whispered, “Shush. Few people knew about Westin’s

real identity. We want to keep it that way.”

Janet’s head was a mess.

A million thoughts whizzed through her head.

No wonder Westin had kept his mouth shut about his identity in front of them the whole time.

The Lycan was nothing but a myth to them. Even if he admitted it, they would not believe in his words.

And something else just hit Janet.

During the one–on–one battle between Daran and Westin, Westin chose not to shift into his wolf.

Janet thought it was because he couldn’t.

But the truth might be the other way around: he could. But if he shifted, his wolf would give away his identity instantly.

Because the Lycans looked differently than the werewolves.

“…But why did he go undercover?” Janet asked after a long pause, “The rogues recognized your reign. You could have just given Lance the order for whatever you are trying to do here. What was Westin after?”

Edwin shrugged with a faint smile:

“The rouges don’t recognize our reign. They are afraid of us. That is all. But even with fear, they still dare to do all kinds of things behind our backs. The sort of things that they would never admit to in front of our faces. Westin went undercover to put a stop to those things.”

“But what kind of those things? Does it have anything to do with the supreme power and ‘The King‘ that Lance told Daran about-”

“Look.”

Edwin spread his hands and smiled, “I am happy to spend a whole night answering your questions, which I am sure you have a lot. But I think you better ask Westin about those questions yourself. And if we are to meet him in time, we better hurry.

The time is limited.”
