The border between the Red night clan and the White night clan is adjacent to a long river, the Chavel river, which separates the territories of the two groups.
To allow the two clans to communicate with each other and, more importantly, for King Adolf to cross the Chavel river to the other clan, the White night clan and Red night clan agreed to build a bridge together and to build a gazebo on the bridge, where we agreed to negotiate.
It is a two-hour drive from the middle of the Red night clan territory to the Chavel river, a long "journey" as I often describe it.
Because walking through this road, I can see how people live in the territory I am in charge of, and it is also an excellent thing for me.
After an hour of driving, we were all a little tired, my car has adjustable chairs and the maid has already prepared a full range of food, Albert helped Shirley adjust the chairs, also took out his bag of prepared bread, the two people eat while talking happily.
I like my subjects to be so relaxed in front of me because it makes me feel not so superior. Albert can always do that and that's why I like him so much.
Horsford had arrived early to prepare for the negotiations, and he sent me a message saying that the White night clan's men had arrived and that they had brought the most beautiful woman in the clan with them.
I thought for a while and replied to Forsford, telling him not to take it too seriously. White night clan's intentions were clear to me, and this woman should just be a gift for the two clans to exchange with each other, and they should want to give this woman to me.
I told Albert and Shirley the news, and they stopped talking further.
"King, I heard that White night clan once wanted to give the most beautiful woman in the clan to Blue moon clan during the negotiation, they took this matter as a symbol of friendship and cooperation between the two clans, if we don't accept it, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to us."
Albert finally got serious.
Shirley furrowed her eyebrows, I think she must have thought of her sister, "King, if we accept the woman they give, it is also not good for us, Mr. Albert is not aware of what happened to the Blue moon clan later, according to my investigation, Blue moon clan, to show their sincerity, appointed that beautiful woman as Luna of his clan, and finally, because of this Luna, the whole royal family became confused and finally triggered the war."
"Of course, we will not appoint this beautiful woman as Luna, our king will set up Luna tonight, this is something that several clans know, I think the White night clan will not spend too much time on the king," Albert said.
"If it's not the king, it's Protector Forsford and Elder Jason, or any of the young men who are members of the royal family without a lady. I don't think they'd let someone without power be the target of their hand." Shirley drew a diagram of relationships in her notebook.
The relationship chart has my name crossed out, not only Forsford and Jason but also Albert, Arce, Orston, and other ministers of higher status.
I agree with them, but I am not willing to accept a woman from another community into my community, it would be a hidden danger for us and a pain for that woman.
"What would happen if, and I mean if, we didn't accept the beautiful women sent by White night clan?"
My words instantly silenced the car, and Shirley and Albert looked at each other, unable to answer my question for a long time.
"King, it is the tradition of our werewolves to accept the gift from the other clan, if we don't accept this gift, we will be punished by the Moon God, and they have to accept all the gifts we prepared for the White night clan this time." Albert looked at me with very sincere eyes and told me very firmly that what he said was true.
"Yes, King, although the thing of giving beautiful women as gifts only exists in the White night clan, we can't refuse or pick and choose the kind of gifts, this matter is also the most important problem we need to solve." Shirley again drew the relationship diagram of the royal family of the White night clan on the paper.
The alpha of the white night clan is Aldridge, who has two sons called Alba and Archie. Hansen is in his fifties as an elder. Alfred is a military expert and his wisdom is amazing. Andrew, as a protector, can fight Horsford to a standstill.
"King, our purpose this time is to get White night clan's help if we are not able to win the advantage in the negotiation, it means that we will be the requesting party, White night clan's people are very arrogant, they will use this to ask for more conditions."
"Yes, there is nothing wrong with what Miss Shirley said, but I have heard that Aldridge cherishes his Luna Amanda very much," Albert's eyes narrowed and the corners of his mouth rose gently, and I could tell that he had an idea in mind.
His appearance reminded me of wolves running in the grassland, their eyes would emit a green glow and the corners of their mouths would pull back to reveal two fangs unconsciously, the way they look when they find their prey.
Shirley was so happy to hear this idea that she patted Albert's shoulder and shouted, "God, Albert! Although we won't do it out of benevolence, we can use this information as a condition to give us an advantage in the negotiations!"
I was pleased with Albert's idea. At this moment, Gina's appearance appeared in my mind again. I did not expect that such a thin and frail woman would play a great role at this moment.
I thank God for making her appear so timely, but can't get rid of the mind-boggling thought of her weakness, which makes me conflicted!
The car had arrived for the negotiation and Forsford himself opened the door for me, Aldridge was standing in front of the car, his face was smiling and I could see the delicate beauty beside him, she looked like my late mother!
I couldn't take my eyes off of her, she smiled slightly when she saw me, it reminded me of my mom's smile before she died, it was so similar! God! My mind kept asking, is it, mom?
"King." Horsford's voice brought me back to reality, and I realized that I had been staring at her for a long time, a scene that Aldridge had seen.
"William! You are still so handsome!" Aldridge is a very spirited man who likes to tap people on the shoulder and talk, even to people he doesn't know well.
I saluted him, and he saluted me back.
"King Aldridge, we haven't seen you for five years and you are still so strong, you are still the bravest warrior among the werewolves!"
"The great God, who has blessed you with a mouth like honey, William, your words make me happy!" Aldridge has a big laugh, and he likes to crane his neck and laugh loudly.
"William, you have finally found your Luna, I am happy for you, thanks to the great goddess of the moon, I think the moon must be the most beautiful tonight!"
"Yes, thanks to King Aldridge."
"William," Aldridge said in a slightly lowered voice as he moved closer to me, "do you need me to teach you how to be a better man?"
Although he deliberately lowered his voice, his voice itself was already high enough for the surrounding ministers to hear it, and I felt my blood flip a little and my cheeks burn a little, for this kind of thing, I don't have the experience that Aldridge has.
"God! This is the kind of secret I won't tell anyone else, William! I think my methods will make your Luna love you more! She won't be able to stay away from you!"
I coughed gently twice to calm myself down, "King Aldridge, I'm afraid you've forgotten the main thing we need to address here today."
"Yes! God! How could I have forgotten about this! It's just so much fun to meet old friends I haven't seen in years. William, please forgive me for my mistake."
"King Aldridge, let's get started!"
Walking into the gazebo, Aldridge and I sat on either side of the table, with our ministers behind us. As a matter of negotiating etiquette, we first saluted each other and then took out our gifts to each other and exchanged them.
Aldridge accepted our gift box, and the beautiful woman behind him came to our side. Aldridge didn't say anything about the beauty, as if she was simply treating her as a gift.
"King Aldridge, today we want to borrow your power to help our clan resist Night clan's attack."
"William, as you know, I'm a very profit-oriented person, what does helping you guys get me?"
"King Aldridge, I can't say with certainty what benefits I can give you, but if Red night clan loses the war with the Night clan, the next target of the Night clan is the White night clan, and Blue moon clan, and Red moon clan are fighting for land, and at that time, you will have no soldiers you can borrow."
Aldridge frowned tightly, and I knew my words had worried him a little.
"King Aldridge, now our two communities are like lips and teeth, if the lips are gone, will the teeth still be warm? Our two communities help each other is the truth that can survive. Next month is the time for King Adolf to inspect the pack, if we don't manage the puck well, he might lead the king's army to supervise us, and at that time, we will lose our freedom, which is not what either of us wants to see, right!"
My words made Aldridge extremely shaken inside, his hands clenched together, his head has sprouted a lot of sweat.
I knew that King Aldridge's greatest strength was not in negotiating but in fighting, so I could easily convince King Aldridge, but Alfred and Bansen behind him were not very easy men to deal with.
The sun was slowly rising to its highest point and the temperature was getting warmer, which was not a good thing for Aldridge, who was getting nervous, and I was watching his expression change every moment, which was important for our negotiations.
