Nikolas POV

The lounge we were led to was smaller and more private than the one we left. I was offered a seat, and I sat down.

“The maids have prepaid two rooms for you and your Gamma. I ensured your rooms were beside each other if you don’t mind.” Aleksander said, and I smiled and thanked him.

“Also, there are pretty Lycan entertainments for you,” He said and leaned close with a whisper. “Or do you prefer werewolves?” he asked. I frowned at him, and he relaxed, laughing. “You do have your mother’s blood running in your veins. She hated those things so much. Where is Isabelle, by the way?” He asked, and I knew it would be wrong to lie to him.

“She became feral nineteen years ago,” I confessed, and everyone gasped. I could see the horror in Poitr and Aleksander’s eyes.

“My goodness. You were a child!” the King exclaimed, and I nodded.

“Yes, I was a child, and I have been taking care of her ever since,” I said, and he was shocked.

“I learned you were hard and ruthless, but now I know why,” he said with Sorrow in his eyes.

“Fedrick was cruel not to accommodate his sister when she ran home for refuge,” he said, and I was flabbergasted. I could not believe what Aleksander had just told me.

“Sister?” I asked, and he nodded.

“You look more like Fedrick than your father,” he said with a smile.

“Your mother was his sister. When she escaped the massacre in Forest, he refused to allow her into his Kingdom.

He said she was weak and should have ruled Forest by force. He said she had no home in Snow. He sent her away with her maid. Honestly, he hated her because she accepted help from a werewolf.

A werewolf helped her escape the massacre. Because of that, Fedrick believed she was compromised and had broken the unity law. He banished her and sent Lycan hunters after her. We never heard from her again. It is amazing to see she survived long enough to bring you into the world,” he said, and I was surprised at his words because my mother did not tell me any of these things. I wondered what else did she hide from me.

see she never told you. It was normal behaviour since he rejected and denounced her. There was no point telling you of her relatives. Isabelle was always the proud kind. I would have married her, you know, but she chose Mathias because he was rich and very powerful. He was also a charmer. I must say she chose well. Your father was a fine man. What the werewolves did to him is unforgivable.”

Sorry, I had to digress, but I need to chip this in,” he said, and I nodded that it was okay. “I would like to trade with Forest. Trading with Snow is tedious, and most of his people sell loot from Forest. That is why he always has hunters there,” he said, and
