"My brother has nothing to do with this. He's already engaged to be married to one of the members of our pack. It's only Sage who hasn't given up her feelings for my brother." Her Majesty's gaze remained steady, her eyes boring into mine. I could feel the weight of her scrutiny, as if she were dissecting every word I said, searching for any hint of deception.

"Very well," she said finally, her tone thoughtful. "If what you say is true, then Sage's feelings for your brother can indeed be used against her. But be warned; if this backfires, it will reflect poorly on you as well." I swallowed hard, feeling a knot of anxiety tighten in my stomach. "I understand, Your Majesty. I will do whatever it takes to ensure this plan succeeds." She gave a slight nod, a small smile playing on her lips. "Good. Now, leave me. I have much to consider." As I left her chamber, my mind raced with conflicting emotions. I had taken a significant risk by bringing this information to Her Majesty. The stakes were higher than ever, and I couldn't afford to make any mistakes. My brother's honor and my own ambitions were all hanging in the balance.

"What job? Are you still planning to do something against Sage? Will you please quit it? You, of all people, should be grateful to Sage. She took your place so you wouldn't have to marry that monstrous king," he argued, his eyes flashing with anger. "What monstrous? He's gorgeous. If I had known he was that good-looking, I wouldn't have hesitated to marry him," I retorted, feeling a surge of indignation.
