Arnold tried to console Adelaide, “The medication and injections are easing her discomfort. At least until the end, she won’t suffer as much.”

As a doctor, she’d witnessed many patients pass away. Sidney’s case filled her with regret and a sense of injustice.

How unfortunate could one be–to be abandoned by her mate and daughters?

Her birth pack couldn’t help either, stationed far away and unable to visit her even in winter.

Usually, when someone with ill intent meets a bad end, people might say they deserved it. But Sidney, kind–hearted and full of good deeds, shouldn’t have ended up like this.

“Paisley, you head back to the capital tomorrow. I’ll stay here with Sidney,” Adelaide said, wiping her tears.

“I can’t let her be without family by her side.”

Paisley, a loyal friend, replied, “I’ll stay with you. As for Avery, Greenwood has guest rooms for male visitors. He can stay there.”

“Christmas is coming. The center will be cold and lonely. You’ll suffer here,” Adelaide said.

“I endured the battlefield’s hardships. What’s a little more suffering?” Paisley responded.

Adelaide, fidgeting with her handkerchief, suddenly paused at Paisley’s words.

Germain’s interest in Paisley–was it because she had been to war?

No, that couldn’t be it, Adelaide shook her head.

If a royal with military command had such thoughts, it might be possible.

But Germain only had five hundred wolf pack warriors. Even as the Alpha of a pack in Blue Ridge State without military command, Lycan Erasmus likely had many spies watching him.

Moreover, he wasn’t particularly talented. How could he dare to harbor thoughts of rebellion?

Too far–fetched. Adelaide couldn’t believe it, thinking he was likely just trying to consolidate power in Blue Ridge State.

Adelaide dismissed the idea but remained cautious–some things, though absurd, could be driven by human desire.

Who knew if Germain was feigning ignorance?

He might be deeply cunning.

His pack was the closest to the capital.

Strangely, despite similar personalities with Alpha Howell, Howell stayed in the capital, while Germain left to build the Blackthorn Pack territory.

Perhaps the old Lycan King also found him hard to read, so he placed him in Blue Ridge State to keep an eye on things.
