Startled, Helga spun around to find through the leaves, but Helga remained steady as she brushed her finge Before she could pull it, however, a shot rang out and the deer fell to th Miranda behind her with a satisfied grin on her face. -What do you think you're doing?" she asked, her brows knifted together.
"I'm hunting. Your Majesty," Miranda responded as she nudged her horse onward until she rode up next to the Queen. Her smile was dripping with sarcasm, causing Helga to let out a derisive snort. "There are no regulations in this hunting tournament, correct? As long as someone shoots the prey before anyone else, they have claim to it."
"Yeah, that's right," she chuckled, but suddenly her expression turned serious as she lifted her gun and aimed it at Miranda, causing her eyes to widen in shock.
"W-what are you doing?" Her voice quivered as she spoke, fear and panic evident in every syllable. She frantically looked around, hoping someone was nearby to witness their confrontation. If someone did see them, she could use the Queen's actions to her advantage in her scheme today. But luck was not on her side, as always. She tightened her grip on the gun, before turning her attention to He

"Quit yapping, I am simply hunting and spot à prey worth taking a shot at." Helga cut in; her tone devoid of any humor. "As you said, this contest has no regulations."
"W-what?" Miranda's hand trembled, the weight of the gun heavy in her clammy palm as her thoughts raced, trying to make sense of the scene unfolding before her. That way Helga's eyes were cold and determined with a gun pointed straight at her without any hesitation made the fear in Miranda's stomach turn into, watched Helga's unflinching gaze. She gulped nervously, raising her own weapon instinctively as her survival instincts kicked in. The atmosphere then suddenly shifted, the wind picking up and making the trees rustle around them. Even their horses seemed to sense the tension and remained perfectly still. "Oh my, you are really st****r face soon turned into a smirk, sending a chill down Miranda's spine.
"Hey! What do you think you're doing?!" Miranda was jolted out of her thoughts by the sudden sound of a man's voice. She quickly lowered her weapon and turned her head to see where it was coming from. It was one of the beta males from the competing pack, causing her heart to race as she realized she had been caught in the act. "Your Majesty are you okay?" he asked as his horse stepped forward to protect the queen from the threatening figure of Miranda. Helga nodded calmly at his concern, but inwardly she couldn't help but smirk at the perfect timing of his arrival. Everything was going exactly as she had planned-after all, she knew that Miranda would try to provoke her during today's hunting expedition by attempting to steal every prey she managed to find. From the moment they entered the dense forest, Helga had been aware of Miranda's presence, constantly trailing her from a safe distance. She wondered if the Luna of Incarnadine was simply foolish or if she underestimated Helga and her inner wolf's keen senses. Regardless, it worked in Helga's favor as Miranda had already fallen into her trap. "I'm fine. No need to worry. Thank you, Beta Andrei." Helga smiled which surprised him. He hadn't expected her to know his name, but then again, he belonged to one of the largest wolf packs in the country so it shouldn't have been a shock that she recognized him. He just nodded and didn't ask her further questions before swiftly turning his head towards the Incarnadine pack's Luna.
"Why is your gun aimed at Her Majesty?" He furrowed his brow in disapproval, "Are you trying to harm her in broad. daylight? And in the territory of the royal pack, no less?" Miranda's finger twitched anxiously, her heart pounding in her chest. Despite her efforts to calm down, the adrenaline coursing through her veins refused to subside. She was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't sense someone approaching 12:34 Fri, Oct 18 Chapter 70 043%
until it was too late. And of all the things for him to catch sight of it was her pointing a loaded gun at the Queen. Her plan had been to provoke Helga and force her into transforming into her wolf form, giving Miranda the perfect opportunity to take her down. But as luck would have it, the Moon goddess seemed to be working against her, shattering her carefully crafted plan into piecesThis content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
"Don't worry. Beta Andrei. Lima Miranda and I were just joking around. She smiled and patted his arm, thanking him for his genuine concern. "You can go, I didn't want to get in the way of your hunting."
"Are you sure. Your Majesty?" Andrei's hesitancy and concern could clearly be heard in his voice. Helga simply nodded and the beta quickly bowed before reluctantly turning away, casting a glare at the Luna of Incarnadine before urging his horse to retreat. Now alone with Miranda, Helga couldn't help but chuckle. The sight of her face completely drained of color, and her panicked expression was almost comical. It was enough to make her laugh loudly which made Miranda's brows furrow. deeper than before. "You're really enjoying yourself aren't you, Queen Luna?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Helga asked with a sarcastic twist to her voice, but before she could receive an answer, her attention was drawn towards the deer who somehow managed to escape. A sense of relief washed over her, knowing that the innocent and majestic animal had not fallen victim to Miranda's hunting skills. As a wolf, killing prey would come naturally to her, but in human form, Helga had no desire to harm any innocent living creature. She knew that if she let her wolf take over, she would have easily caught and killed the deer. However, revealing herself as a 'rare red wolf in the midst of a Hunting competition was not something she wanted to risk.

Miranda's hear pounded at the Queen's suffocating presence, akin to that of the Alpha King. She couldn't pinpoint it, but there was something about Helga that made her tremble in fear.
"I have my limits, Miranda... And I won't hesitate to act on them. So, think carefully before you test me unless you're prepared for the consequences."
