A Female Alpha’s Revenge

Chapter 302

Third Person’s POV

Lance’s heart ached.

She smiled when happy, but hid her tears when sad, showing him only a calm facade.

Adelaide had never declared her love. The only time she mentioned it to Cedric, it sounded like a child’s lullaby.

Yet he chose to believe it, clinging to it for comfort.

Lance harbored some resentment toward Erasmus.

Returning from the southern border, he’d hoped to court Adelaide properly before proposing. But Erasmus’s words turned his plans into a rushed wedding.

Fortunately, Adelaide knew his proposal had been sincere.

Adelaide slept fitfully until dawn.

With Priscilla staying at the palace, she wasn’t expected to pay morning calls.

But soon, New Year fireworks woke her.

After staring at the ceiling for a while, she got up and dressed.

Beata entered to help with her hair, mentioning, “Alpha Lance left early for the packhouse to receive military officials.”

“Did their mates come too?” Adelaide asked.

As the Blackthorn Pack’s Luna, she needed to entertain guests‘ mates.

“No mates. They’re all military personnel,” Beata replied.
