MainNovelThe Abandoned Lycan Queen 119 Chapter 119 Deacon's POV I stared at my mom, waiting for what more she had to say because her laugh was the last thing I expected from her.
But when that laugh turned into sarcasm and into mockery, that's when I shook my head.
What else did I expect from her? She continued, "That's what it is, isn't it? You admire her swordsmanship, her rough ways? But can't you see? A woman like that is exactly the opposite of what should fit as your wife! How can you bring disgrace to our name?" By now, she was beyond hysterical. She waved her hand and called for a servant, who served her another cup. Just that this time, instead of tea, she was served with a glass of wine in which she finished in one gulp, making the servant turn back around to refill her glass before she could even go further.

With my legs open, I leaned my elbows on my knees and intently looked into her eyes. "You are talking to your son, the very person who carved his own path with blood and steel." More than as a prince, I've been known as the great commander who could kill countless Rogues without making a sweat.
Shaking my head, I thoughtfully told my mom, "Titles mean little to me, Mom. You keep saying that Elena is unworthy of me, but I don't see anyone more fitting to stand by my side more than her." Her brows furrowed, looking atwith anger and disbelief in her eyes. "I can't believe this! You are ignoring my wishes, Deacon! Have you lost every respect you have for me? For your own mother?" I stared at my mom for a little while, knowing this conversation would be going nowhere and that I could only hope twould make things better, as it usually does when it concerns her.
Shrugging, I smiled a little and calmly told her, "I respect you, Mom. I really do, which is why I'm telling you this now. If you despise Elena so much, you are welcto stay in the main wing of the palace instead of coming to my wing." The room fell into deafening silence as my mom and I stared at each other, calculating each other's emotions. Tension built up in the air so much so that the servants standing at the side exchanged nervous glances.
I watched as my mom's hands rested on the armrest of the couch, gripping it tightly while her face was contorted with so much disbelief.
"You... You will exile your own mother for a woman?" she asked in utter disbelief.
Letting out a cold smile, I simply answered, "No, I'm simply giving you a choice. If you cannot respect my decision, then you can spare both of us: you from seeing it unfold, andfrom being sandwiched in the middle." Tears started to form in the corner of her eyes as she shook her head in frustration. "I can't believe I raised an ungrateful child like you! After everything I have done for you-" "What have you done? You did everything for yourself, Mom. Don't useas an excuse!" Linterrupted her, making her gasp in anger.
Despite her reaction, I continued, "I have made my decision, Mom. If you continue to refuse to accept it, then perhaps I should discuss this matter with Queen Liz instead. After all, she's my nominal mother." 1/2 Γ Chapter 119 Her face turned red, and she clenched her fist beside her with her lips trembling as she glared atlike she wanteddead. She knew she was completely defeated, but she still seethed.
Her voice cracked with anger and helplessness. "You will regret this." Tilting my head slightly, I said with confidence, "I doubt that." With that, I stood up and left, leaving her seated there, completely stunned and furious.
