After leaving Priscilla’s palace, Lance went to greet Lycan Clarissa and told her of his intention to bond with
Adelaide.
Clarissa was delighted. “You've accomplished great things quietly. Two months ago, your mother was still
worrying about your marriage. | didn’t expect you and Adelaide to hit it off on the battlefield. She's a good girl
and deserves your care.”
Lance said, “Lycan Clarissa, | will treat her well. However, Priscilla seems to dislike Adelaide and might intimidate
her at the palace in the next few days.”
Clarissa immediately sensed Lance's indirect plea for help.
With a gentle smile, she reassured him, “Don’t worry. I'm here, and Adelaide won’t be wronged.”
Lance expressed his gratitude sincerely, “I leave it all in your hands. Thanks, Lycan Clarissa.”
Clarissa’s eyes flickered with complexity but quickly regained composure.
She inquired about his experiences on the battlefield, his injuries, and their recovery.
Lance answered each question, and Clarissa insisted on having the royal healers examine him.
The royal healers were experienced, and Lance left the palace with a bounty of nutritional supplements.
Sometimes Lance wondered, “whose son am | really?”
His mother Priscilla never asked about such things.
After the victory banquet, he was sent to Priscilla’s palace drunk.
Priscilla excitedly shook him, praising the Southern Border triumph and their rising fame.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe never asked if he'd suffered, focusing only on the glory.
But Lance held no grudges. Priscilla had always been self-centered, expecting the world to revolve around
her.
Her love was just enough for a calm mother-son relationship-neither arousing resentment nor inviting high
expectations.
After Lance left, Clarissa rested on the sofa, eyes closed.
An Omega, thinking her asleep, quietly draped a blanket over her.
The weather was sultry, yet the hall lay in shade. Sleeping there could easily give one a chill.
Clarissa opened her eyes and said, “I'm not asleep, just deep in thought.”

Omega Tracy asked, “Is it about Alpha Lance and Miss Davidson's bond? You've known about it for a while.
There’s no need to worry. Alpha Lance will treat her well.”
Clarissa shook her head. “That's not what concerns me.”
“Worried Priscilla will be unkind to Miss Davidson?”
“I'll keep an eye on her,” Clarissa sighed. “But | fear friction between Lance and Erasmus. Erasmus’s plan to strip
Lance of command is clear. Lance must see through it. How could he not feel upset?”
Omega Tracy reassured, “Alpha Lance will understand. Lycan Erasmus aims to prevent future conflicts. Without
command, Alpha Lance poses no threat.”
“Erasmus knows his brother lacks ambition.”
“Better safe than sorry. Besides, Lycan Erasmus, feeling guilty, will compensate Alpha Lance.”
Clarissa nodded slightly. “I don’t oppose it. When Erasmus told me, | stayed silent but agreed inwardly.”
“Adelaide has Alpha Bentley's subordinates’ support, and Lance has the army. Even if Lycan Erasmus isn’t
suspicious, the Royal Council sees their power as a threat.”
“True. But understanding this, we have nothing to fear.”
“Lycan Erasmus and Alpha Lance's bond runs deep. Any discord is temporary.”
Clarissa sighed gently. “Yes, without
