Priscilla coaxed Lance in a tone one might use with a child, then turned to see him still standing there and promptly asserted her maternal authority. “What are you waiting for? Take Adelaide back. Look at her icy hands–show some concern!”

Lance was taken aback by his mother’s unusually sharp tone.

Though occasionally scolded as a child, since he’d joined the military, his mother had treated him with increasing reverence, and their relationship had grown distant.

Especially after he left the palace and became the Alpha of the Blackthorn Pack, their relationship grew even more distant.

Their interactions were either polite or dismissive, and this direct rebuke was unprecedented.

Glancing at his mother, Lance took Adelaide’s hand and led her to their room.

Priscilla sat back in her chair, reflecting on how rare it was for her to reprimand him so sternly. Marriage, it seemed, had softened him.

Noticing Paisley still sulking, Priscilla thought of Sidney’s lonely death.

Though not close to Sidney, she’d encountered her several times over the years. Sidney had always been gentle and dignified, kind to everyone in the palace.

As Germain’s mate, she’d died alone in a sanatorium, with even her own daughters shedding no tears for her. Her life had been unbearably tragic.
