Third Person’s POV

Adelaide looked into Lance’s brown eyes, deep as a starless night.

Amid the crackling pine fire, she sensed his cedar pheromones, sharp with glacier cold and bitter with gunpowder from his battle–stained armor.

Her nape gland prickled, releasing the Frostfang Alpha’s soothing silvergrass scent.

After a pause, she said, “Alpha Lance, if we bond and you later find your Second Chance, she’d be your mistress. I’ve already severed one mate bond. Another would shame my parents and weaken my wolf.”

Lance’s wolf paced restlessly in his mind, eyes locked on the moon sigil at Adelaide’s collarbone.

He suppressed the urge to leap up and pressed down on his hat.

When she mentioned severing a mate bond, his wolf clawed at his consciousness, “Her cedar carries silvergrass–she’s our true mate from the Moon Goddess!”

He feigned indifference, but his lips curled upward involuntarily.

He said, “I won’t love another she–wolf but her. We can spend our lives like this, mutual respect and courtesy.”

Hearing this, Adelaide became curious.

She asked, “I wonder who she is. If you two are true mates and you hold her in such high regard, why isn’t she with you?”

Lance’s eyes blazed as he spoke of her.

He swallowed hard, curbing his growing fangs.

His wolf taunted, “Idiot! She’s our long–lost destined mate!”

He said, “She doesn’t even know me. It’s all one–sided. Before heading to the Southern Border, I asked her mother for a bond, but was rejected.”

“After I left, she found her daughter a suitable mate. I can’t name her, as she’s already mated, and I don’t want to cause her

any trouble.”

Adelaide nodded. “Right. If she’s bonded, you shouldn’t mention her.”

She respected Lance even more now.

He was a brave and strategic warrior, yet also remarkably perceptive.

Though deeply in love with that woman, he held his tongue to protect her reputation.

Lance, mirroring his barracks bluntness, urged, “Adelaide, answer me. Straight up. I’ll handle any issues.”

Almost instinctively, Adelaide replied, “Yes!”

Lance’s tension eased, his smile breaking free. “Straightforward as ever. Let’s divide duties: you manage the pack, I’ll earn. My mom and sister will live here.”

“After our bonding, my sister will find her own mate and leave soon.”

“Mom’s the tough one. She’s used to a life of luxury and likes to boss people around,” Lance said. “But I’m sure she won’t push you around.”

Adelaide was the type to stand firm against strength and soften at weakness.

It was high time Mom experienced some push–back.

Adelaide smiled. “Your mom’s in for a taste of defiance.”

Lance’s filial piety carried a tinge of sarcasm.

“Adelaide, you’ve nailed it!” His eyes glowed with fiery resolve.

After Lance left, Beta Valentin and two omegas entered. Adelaide, candidly, shared Lance’s marriage proposal and her acceptance.
