Chapter 29 Her secret
Why did I trust Cas sandra Keller?
That was a great question. But I was completely surprised when the healer asked it, and even more surprised when I realized her question had a point.
I hadn’t told anyone about my ailment apart from Lancel. My most trusted guard had been attempting to investigate the mark for me, but it hadn’t been going well. Besides him, no one else knew I had the disease. Not the royal healers or even Adalyn.
So, why was I willing to entrust this secret to a healer from a mostly forgotten
Pack on the border?
In all honesty, I didn’t know why, but something in my gut told me she could be trusted. When I’d shown her my mark back in Alpha Gareth’s meeting room, I hadn’t thought about it twice. Trusting her felt natural as if she were someone I’d known for years.
But in reality, it was unnatural, strange even.

My father, the late Alpha King, once told me that the king should trust no one. I’d never believed him until I myself became king and realized that Anemond was full of traitors and liars who sought to sway me in their favor. They smiled at me and treated me favorably, but their reasons for doing so only came down to one thing.
