Chapter 602 The Matured Version Of The Girls

"Don't worry, I am safe with them," Jocelyn assured the guy whom she knew was genuinely concerned about her wellbeing.

"Ok, I will be just at the door. Call me if you need anything," Carl gave in to what Jocelyn wanted after much consideration.

"I have tons of questions for you so shift back right now," Audrey said authoritatively, her index finger pointed at the werewolf.

After Joanna shifted back, she had to wear new sets of clothes since she was naked as the day she was given birth.

The moment she dressed up and returned to her seat Jocelyn and Audrey bombarded her with questions. And since it had come to this she had no choice but to satisfy their curiosity.

"I think it was a month after I got pushed off the cliff. I am not too certain about how much time had passed since it was difficult to differentiate day and night at the Ancient Forest of no Return. All there was to see was only darkness so I couldn't make out the time…"

"You were at the Infamous Ancient Forest Of No Return?" Jocelyn asked, her eyes almost falling out of their sockets.

"I heard none who ventured into the forbidden place had ever come out of there alive so how on Earth did you do that?" Jocelyn demanded.

"I am not too sure. I guess the heavens heard my desperate cries that is why they let me live," Joanna joked even though they were discussing such a serious topic.

Even she had wanted to know how she was able to obtain the mysterious system that ended up saving her life and getting her out of that hellhole.

She was only a weak girl, how was she able to make it out of that dreadful place that even the most powerful warriors couldn't?

This question had been on her mind but unfortunately, no one was there to give her the reply she wanted so she stopped thinking about it after a while.

"After roaming that dark place for several days without food I was on the verge of collapsing when an equally starving tiger chose me as its target. I don't know how I did it but I just saw myself running for dear life in the thick forest," Joanna narrated her ordeal.

"Believe me, I don't know for how long I ran away from the tiger who refused to let go of me. When I realised it, I was shocked to have seen that I had shifted into a werewolf even without knowing," Joanna couldn't resist smiling when she remembered the feeling of being able to transform for the first time.

The feeling was heavenly!

"You can say my desperation to survive brought about the miracle that I had been waiting for all my life," Joanna concluded smiling.

"When Rach told me about her grandma's vision about you, I was worried. Believe me, I couldn't eat or sleep for three days. I was so restless to the point that my brother got scared on my behalf," Jocelyn revealed, her right hand clutching her chest.

"Grandma Andy had a prophecy about me?" Joanna asked as she exchanged puzzled glances with the equally surprised Audrey.

"What was it about? And speaking of Rachel, why is she not with you at such trying moments? I thought you girls were inseparable just like me and Drey," Joanna described.

"You can ask Rach for the details when she comes. And you haven't seen her around because she is the one leading the search for my missing brother today…" Jocelyn trailed off as she scratched her hair with her left hand.

"Actually, before the men stomped into the pack house I had already gotten intel that the men would force me to hand over my brother's seal. I deliberately put her in charge of the search for my brother today because I didn't want to put her in danger," Jocelyn confessed meekly.

"Why is your method of protecting the one you love so similar to Anna's? Is there no other method of keeping the one you care about from harm's way other than leaving them behind or sending them far away?" Audrey implored.

"Different people have ways of protecting the person they love. Maybe Anna and I are alike because we believe that safety should always come first," Jocelyn answered seriously.

"You have matured a lot, I must say. I can't believe the Jocelyn sitting in front of me who puts the well-being of the entire pack first is the same one I met in the past," Joanna said while pointing her finger at Jocelyn.

"I am not the only one who changed but you did also. You are more daring and confident of yourself now. Anna in the past wouldn't have dared to challenge those rough-looking men to their faces no matter what," Jocelyn said in a playful tone causing all of them to burst out laughing.

"You are so correct about that. In the past, she was often beaten up but she never for once stood up for herself. She was that kind of girl," Audrey added amidst her laughter.

Jocelyn let the air of excitement die off before she resumed their previous discussion.

"For this battle what do you need?" Jocelyn immediately got back to the business of the day.

"I will ask Carl and the other guards to prepare darts, daggers, sword shields and other hidden equipment you can use…"

"I don't need all those things to win against them. All that I require right now is food, water and maybe half an hour of sleep and I will be more than ready to take on a hundred men," Joanna cut in softly.

"That must have been a joke right?" Jocelyn quizzed unable to believe what she just heard. She averted her gaze to Audrey for confirmation.

"I am not joking. If you don't believe me then we can spar or if that is too much you can ask Carl and your other guards to duel with me," Joanna replied.
