“You and | will be together forever,” he whispered, his mind now clear-just intoxicated by emotion.

The mark on Adelaide’s nape suddenly burned.

As she tilted her head back to drink, her wolf eyes reflected Lance's enlarged pupils, the fine vertical lines

quivering slightly with her swallowing motions.

Setting down the glass, they gazed into each other's eyes.

“I was going to tell you something-"

Adelaide interrupted, “Letask- before you went to the southern border, did you ask my mother to mate with

me?”

Her wolf claws subtly extended beneath her sleeves, yet retracted swiftly upon touching the calluses on his

palm.

Lance’s pheromones intensified, the cedar scent mingled with a rust-like aroma from the war.

He was stunned. “You know about that?”

“Ivy just told me,” she replied.

She bit her red lip, then lifted her head, her lashes trembling like cicada wings, “So the special someone you

mentioned before was already mated-the one you wanted was me?”

He nodded slightly, “It’s you, always has been, and only you.”

Everything clicked for Adelaide.

Their pheromones suddenly fused explosively-the Alpha of the Frostfang Pack and the royal Lycan bloodline

resonating under the moon, hotter than any mating ceremony.

Her eyes glistened with tears, her nose a bit stuffy. “To mate with me, you gave up your command. Lycan

Erasmus knew your feelings, hence the three-month order-if | couldn't find a mate, I'd enter the royal family as

the New Moon Priestess. He was pressuring you to relinquish command. You fool!”

Lance wiped the tears from her eyes, gently saying, “I'm not foolish at all. What use is the army’s command

compared to you? It would only breed jealousy and trouble. Even without his pressure, | planned to give it up.”

He even smiled smugly, “If not for his ultimatum, | was worried about how to propose. With his order, | believed

you'd chooseover becoming the New Moon Priestess-he dida favor.”

Adelaide cast him a reproachful glance. “And you're happy about being used? You're a fool who counts money for

those who exploit you.”

Her coquettish manner sweetened his heart, softer than cotton candy dusted with sugar.

He said, “It doesn’t matter. I've achieved my goal.”

Adelaide lowered her eyes, but her heart was filled with sweetness-achieving his goal, wasn’t that true for her

too?

So this was the joy of mutual understanding.

He fetched her sdessert, a little of each kind. “You must be hungry tonight.”

Adelaide replied, “I did eat. Ivy, worried I'd starve, had them prepare a meat soup for me. | heard you didn’t eat

a thing.”

He said, “No tto eat. Eager to get back, but Irene draggedto chat with other packs’ Alphas and drank too

much before | knew it.”

“Dragged by Irene, right?” Adelaide took a bite of roasted broccoli. It was tender and flavorful.

She ate a few pieces, then forked sfor him.

The food he received from his lover tasted sweet.

They ate quietly, many words left unsaid.

This was their first meal post-mating, and they hadn't found the right way to express themselves yet. Better to

speak less and avoid mistakes.

She ate gracefully, like a noble lady.

Lance's eyes filled with amusement.

Who would link the Adelaide before him with the battlefield warrior? They seemed like two different people.

Adelaide, unaware of his gaze, was lost in thought.

She had learned post-mating protocols before her ceremony with Ulrik, but thad erased her memory.

Was it about not being too forward for marks? Or not being too reserved?

Was it about not seeming frivolous or dull?

Oh dear, she'd forgotten it all.

Wait, she recalled something. It was about finding a balance-not too eager, nor too passive.

After finishing their meal, Lance stood first, took her hand gently, “You're tired. Let's rest early tonight.”

“Okay... and you...” Her cheeks flushed inexplicably, “Do you want to take a bath?”

“Yes, | should rinse off this smell so | don’t overwhelm you.”

“Shall I have someone assist you?” Adelaide asked.

“Got it!” A wave of warmth surged in him.

The bathroom was stocked with Lance’s pajamas, made of comfortable fabric matching Adelaide's in style

and color.

Lance, anticipating a late night, had bathed thoroughly the night before.

Emerging from the bathroom in his pajamas, he looked clean and handsome.

After his tin the capital, his skin had lightened.
