Adelaide responded modestly, her gaze lowered, and unconsciously rubbed the shadow wolf emblem on her armor. “You flatter me. This isn’t just my doing. Alpha Lance planned and commanded the mission flawlessly. I merely followed his lead and benefited from his expertise. Compared to the seasoned warriors who’ve shed blood on the battlefield for years, my contributions are insignificant.”

Gazing at the faint scar above Adelaide’s brow, a relic of her mother’s touch now dusted with battlefield grime, Clarissa’s throat tightened.

“Female werewolves face far more challenges on the battlefield than male ones,” she said softly, smoothing Adelaide’s wind–tousled hair and brushing against the new downy hairs at her ear.

“Now that the war has ended, what are your plans? If you’re open to it, I could introduce you to promising young Alphas. Or perhaps I could arrange a strategic alliance for you.”

Adelaide stood hastily, her armor’s metal plates softly clinking. “Thank you for your concern, but right now, I just want to bathe and get some rest. We can talk about the rest later,” she said, her eyes drifting to the falling snow outside. Her voice softened as she recalled her mother’s final moments.

Clarissa sighed. “I know. A she–wolf shouldn’t be confined to the path of becoming a mate. But your mother once told me she wished for you to live a peaceful life.”

“From a personal standpoint, I’d like to see you become the wolf kingdom’s first female Gamma. Yet, I don’t want to disregard your mother’s wishes. She… she truly feared the battlefield. It took almost everything from her,” Clarissa’s voice trembled.

Adelaide’s eyes fell on the streaks of white in Clarissa’s hair.

As a child, she’d often visited the palace with her mother.

Back then, Clarissa, the wolf kingdom’s royal Luna, would teach her to read star maps under the moonlight, saying, “A she–wolf’s vision should reach for the vast sky.”
