It felt wrong for a packmate to snoop on a conversation like that- especially one that made her feel so vulnerable.

Ancelin wasn't asking her to forgive Masquerade, nor did he seem keen to push the other away- Lilia could tolerate the additional company given the fact Masquerade was an exceptional hunter. She cared for the way that Ancelin saw her, and benevolence could suit her when it also benefited her.
