“Alpha, are you alright?” I heard Qusack’s voice, which snapped me out of my deep thoughts. I was staring at the Photo of Aliana’s mother, who was currently in Snow as Fredrick’s slave.

“Do you know this woman?” I asked, handing Qusack the Photo? He looked at it and shook his head.

I wanted to know if I was the only one she served. It seemed I was the only one.

Seeing Aliana’s father’s condition, I did not want to raise any alarms. I might not get anything from him if I told him what I saw. He might end up in the clinic.

I figured Fredrick must have forcefully claimed her, and that was the severance Gabriel felt that made him believe she was dead. Only a Lycan of his breed could achieve stealing a mate of a lesser breed.

It was easier for Gabriel to believe his mate was dead than to think she had been claimed forcefully by an Alpha Lycan. It wouldn’t have crossed his mind since Lycans believed

Werewolves were beneath them, but Gwendolyn was a beauty like her daughter.

It should have crossed his mind.

I couldn’t control myself when I set eyes on Aliana, and it had nothing to do with our bond.

She might not look like her mother, but she was in a league of her own and did not have to make any effort to look the part.

I tried to compose myself while connecting the dots in my head.

If I was the only one she served, Fredrick wanted me to know he had Aliana’s mother.

Unfortunately, I did not know her, and he figured it out when he came to see me in the room.

All the talk was just to know how much I knew.

Apparently, I was clueless, hence his satisfaction.

The woman had referred to me as royalty and told me she was from Forest, but how could I connect the dots?

Gwendolyn was also the only person that knew of my legitimacy.

I began to suspect that Fredrick had grabbed the woman and kept her alive on purpose.

He grabbed her around the time of my conquest.

He must have known I planned to take Forest and did not want me to get my crown. How else can I prove my legitimacy when everyone in Forest, when I was conceived, had died in battle?
