Finally, at the inn that night, after Lance helped Adelaide down from the carriage, Cedric mustered the courage to climb down

He stood trembling between them, spreading his arms to shield Adelaide, glaring at Lance with hostility

He was terrified, his thin legs shaking, lips quivering, and emitting low growls as if to ward off something

Lance and Adelaide exchanged a puzzled glance

Had their efforts backfired

Ah!Adelaide slapped her forehead, realizing the issue

Cedric didn’t know she’d dissolved her mating bond with Ulrik and was now to be Lance’s mate

That night, Adelaide and Cedric sat close and talked at length

Adelaide knew she couldn’t treat him like a child anymore

After two years of wandering and begging, he was mature enough to understand complex matters

Moreover, he’d learned of the Frostfang Pack’s massacre through rumors, but not the full details

At seven, it was time he knew the truth

The perpetrators of the Frostfang Massacre were moles from the Western Tribe. I didn’t know you’d escaped, so I thought you perished in the disaster too,” Adelaide said

Now, you’re the last male of the Frostfang Alpha family. You carry the hopes and legacy of our grandfathers, uncles, and father. You must be brave, strong, and fearless, just like them,she added

As for meShe grasped Cedric’s shoulders, looking into his tearful eyes. I’ve dissolved my mating bond with Ulrik. We’re no longer mates, just strangers.” 

Cedric wiped his tears fiercely, eyes wide with shock

I’ll explain the details later. What you need to know is that Lance will be my future mate. Our mating ceremony is set for the end of the year,Adelaide continued

You’re probably wondering why I chose him. It starts with the Southern Border conflict” 

She revealed a third of the truth: the Western Tribe wolves were behind the Frostfang Massacrea fact Cedric would eventually learn

She concealed another third: the Bloodscar Border’s secrets, which he wasn’t ready to know

And she fabricated the final third: claiming she and Lance had fallen for each other on the battlefield

Her eyes softened as she spoke of Lance, as if describing a hero, He’s a hero like your grandfather and fatherfighting enemies and defending our land. He’s incredible, achieving what our grandfather did. He truly reclaimed the Southern Border. He’s a hero. And he helped find you. I’m grateful to him, and Ilike him.” 

Adelaide’s cedar pheromones surged uncontrollably

As the words like himleft her lips, her wolf let out an excited, almost puppylike howl in her mind

Lance’s stern and noble face flashed before her eyes, her heart racing and breath quickening

She’d meant to deceive Cedric, to reassure him that she’d find happiness with a true mate

But as the words escaped, she realized she might harbor genuine, albeit undefined, feelings for Lance- something she’d never felt for anyone before

Her heartbeat thudded painfully against her ribs, and her glands released a sudden sweetness

Unbeknownst to her, this was the instinctive reaction of a werewolf encountering a potential matethe same way Airella’s moonmark would glow softly when speaking of Bentley

Adelaide’s wolf nuzzled her spine, conveying its emotions

Cedric, watching her, pointed outside then at Adelaide, asking if Lance liked her too

Adelaide’s cheeks flushed. Since she’d fabricated the story, she committed fully, whispering, He likes me too.” 

Cedric, though still tearyeyed, began to smile

In the next room, Lance sat on his bed. Despite the muted voices, he heard every word

His cedar pheromones flooded out like a tidal wave

He listened intently, especially when Adelaide confessed her liking for him

He knew it was a lie to comfort Cedric

Yet, deep in his consciousness, his wolf howled with excitement, its ears trembling violently as if to capture every sound, even Adelaide’s faint whimpers

This was a beautiful lie

The sweetness of moonstone in her pheromones,” his wolf’s silver fur sparked with fragmented light in his mind, its paws frantically scratching

He slowly pulled the covers over his head

His stern expression softened, and in the darkness, a brilliant smile bloomed repeatedly

The cedar scent under the covers grew thick, his wolf nuzzling his spine, tail sweeping over every battle

She said she liked him

Though it was a kind lie for Cedric, to Lance, it still meant a lot
