Chapter 29

At training, Lucianne had just finished demonstrating a technique to dodge the opponent’s punch from the side without losing balance. When she and Toby were moving on to the next pair of fighters. Someone yelled out, “My Queen.”

“Oh, wow.” Toby said in surprise when he saw two Lycans approaching them. Both young. One dark-haired and one light-haired.

Lucianne turned to face them as they bowed and their heads lifted when Lucianne’s head was lifted after bowing in return. “Good morning, ministers. Toby, this is Sir Weaver, the Minister of Environment. And this is his mate, Lord Yarrington, the Minister of Education. Ministers, this is one of my closest brothers on the battlefield, Gamma Tobias Tristan.”

*Pleasure.” The Ministers took turns thrusting out their hands to shake Toby’s who managed t o stutter a surprise “L-Likewise.”

“What can I do for you both?” Lucianne asked the ministers.

They looked at each other before the light-haired Lycan, Sir Weaver, spoke, “My Queen, we were wondering if you have any time in your schedule to watch us fight? The Lycan warriors have been showing us the same moves every year, and we feel like we’ve hit a plateau. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)And, t o be fair, those guys never fought in a real battle before. So, we were hoping to get some pointers from you since you have fought, and won, on a battleground. And maybe you could teach us some new techniques?”

Toby held back a smile and muttered, “Oh, wow.”

Lucianne smiled, “We will be happy to help but uh…” she looked around and was mentally counting the number of pairs that she and Toby would have to watch before she could slot the ministers in, “Give us an hour?”

“That’ll be great! Thank you, my Queen.” They bowed and left.

“Oh, wow.” Toby said for the third time.

Lucianne narrowed her eyes, “Really, Toby?”

His cheeky smile appeared as they strolled towards Wainwright and Lyssa, “I apologize for not living up to the Queen’s expectations.” Lucianne smacked him mercilessly on his arm and he chuckled. Wainwright and Lyssa were both improving. Their sparring lasted longer but Lyssa came out victorious again.

“Lucy,” Wainwright started, “It really isn’t easy to show no mercy to a woman fighter. I mean, I love my daughter and I see someone else’s daughter when my opponent is a female.”
