<div style="text-align: center">Ellanore was intense as Martin spoke, however there was no chaos yet. The two wolves took their sweet time and kept everyone on their toes. Only when the wolves completely undressed themselves was when there were reactions. Ellanore covered her lips as her eyes were plastered on the manhood of the wolf, while Felicia let out a chuckle. This caused Edmond to turn and frown playfully at her, while he saw Ellanore completely flustered. For all her father knew, she was still a virgin. While Felicia knew things, Ellanore didn't share those things with her father.<br/>
<br/>
And when the fight began, it wasn't what they expected. Sebastian was the one going at it, punching the Beta repeatedly, but there was no reaction from him. Valentine didn't react. Only when Valentine began to strike back, it was when it got intense. Ellanore blinked at every punch, at some points even looking away. She was always kept away from violent moments, just as the royal training demanded, but Felicia didn't blink at anything. It made her wonder just what her mother went through that she's so calm about everything. She knew that the LaCroix went through tragic times, but to the point where her mother had no reaction to deaths and violence...<br/>
<br/>
The fight soon was nearing the end as Sebastian was the one struggling and the Beta wolf came out victorious. Everyone cheered and clapped, expect Ellanore, with her nails gently grazing over her lips as she stared at the wolf observantly. They did lock eyes for a uncertain second. Victor walked over to Felicia. "The dinner will soon be served. We'll be emptying the training grounds and the mansion for the evening." he said as Felicia stood up with the help of Alissa, while Ellanore walked with Donovan slowly, not rushing out of the training grounds.<br/>
<br/>
"You certainly dressed for the occasion, red satin dress, rooting for the wolf who marked himself red." Donovan teased as her looked at Ellanore's form fitting dress, leaving the extravagance behind for the evening and focusing on her feminine figure and just being a woman. "I bet you liked what you saw."<br/>
<br/>
Ellanore tried not to smile, but she failed and gave him a light slap on his arm. "Shut up. I'm not answering that. This just complicated things." she stated.<br/>
<br/>
Donovan sighed as they walked through the hallways. "Well, this means he'll be around. I know for a fact something will happen. You and your bold move with cigarettes. I'd slap you in the back of your head if I didn't feel bad for ruining your hairstyle."<br/>
<br/>
The Princess rolled her eyes as they arrived to the dining room, Alissa already brought Felicia over and rushed outside, while Ellanore and Donovan sat by the table.<br/>
<br/>
Felicia stared off into the distance for a moment, lost in thoughts while it was quiet in the dining room. "I like Valentine." she said with a nod and Ellanore couldn't help but smile, though she avoided looking at her, for reasons that are clear to Donovan.<br/>
<br/>
Edmond and Victor made sure that Martin and the two wolves had everything ready before the dinner, they however were already on their way to the dining room. The family sat by the table and the chatter started as they waited for the wolves, Ellanore just stared into the empty plates, realizing just how much she's risking. Valentine will be around and her damned eyes failed to resist. She wants to speak with him and get a chance for a alone time. But what happens what Varus arrives, the question was dreadful at the moment.​</div>
