He only knew one thing: if he ever came face–to–face with the people responsible, he’d lunged at them like a rabid dog. He’d tear their throats out regardless of the cost, even if it meant losing his own life.

But he understood why Adelaide was holding back.

She wasn’t just Adelaide; she was a high–ranking commander of the kingdom, a she–wolf with a duty. Her grandfather and her late father and brothers were the kind of loyal warriors who placed the kingdom’s survival above their own pack’s interests. She carried that bloodline with pride, but it was also a heavy shackle. She bore the honor of an entire legacy; she couldn’t just act like a rogue wolf and burn everything down for revenge.

Avery sat on the cold floor for a long time. It wasn’t until he heard the two women in the side hall start teasing each other–the atmosphere finally shifting back to normal–that he let out a long, shaky breath.

Just then, he caught sight of a tall figure standing at the corner of the hallway. It was Craig.

Avery scrambled to his feet, tip–toeing over with a finger to his lips. “Shh,” he whispered. “They’re in there talking. She’s doing a lot

better.”

Craig looked toward the faint light spilling from the side hall, his voice low and gravelly. “She cried hard, didn’t she?”

“Yeah. But Paisley worked her magic. They’re actually joking around now.”

Craig let out a soft sigh. A flicker of uncharacteristic tenderness crossed his rock–hard face. “Thank the Moon Goddess for Paisley. Sometimes, when a wound goes that deep, only another female knows how to reach it. We’re just soldiers–we don’t have that kind of touch.”

Avery nodded in total agreement. “Tell me about it. I felt useless standing out here, not knowing how to help.” He brushed the dust off his pants. “Come on, let’s head to the study. Alpha Lance and Caldwell are probably already at the tactical map. We need to hear the plan for the next move.”

Craig nodded.

Before tonight, their primary goal had been simple: keep Alpha Zander out of a damp, miserable dungeon. They had succeeded. But from here on out, every step would be a dance on the edge of a blade.

The following evening, Lisa arrived in the capital and headed straight for Adelaide’s estate.

Adelaide knew she was coming, but she hadn’t expected her to move this fast. Alpha Zander had estimated it would take a few more days to see her.

When Paisley burst into the study with the news, Adelaide was halfway through unbuttoning her uniform. She fumbled to button it back up and sprinted toward the courtyard.

The sun hadn’t quite set yet. The sky was a masterpiece of three or four layers of evening clouds, glowing like a fire of soft crimson and orange. That gentle, slightly melancholic light framed Lisa perfectly.

Lisa was standing in the courtyard, her voice raspy as she directed several omegas to unload heavy wooden crates from a carriage.

When she heard Adelaide’s choked–up cry, she stiffened and spun around.

Before she could even make out the figure on the steps, a black blur hit her with a familiar, sharp scent. Adelaide threw herself into Lisa’s arms, hugging her with everything she had.

Smelling Adelaide’s unique scent, the reality finally set in for Lisa. Tears welled up instantly, but as a she–wolf who had spent her life in the frozen North, she clamped down on her emotions, leaving only a sharp, stinging ache in her nose.

She forced a smile and patted Adelaide’s back. “What’s this? I just crawled back from the border–is this pup trying to tackle me right back where I came from?”

Adelaide squeezed her tight, refusing to let go for a long time. Finally, she stepped back half a pace and managed a bright, beaming smile.

“I’m just so happy to see you.”
