“Eat up,” Adelaide said, shaking off her thoughts and smiling at him.
It was comforting that someone felt injustice for her and her family.
He smiled warmly back. “I know you like spicy food. Have smore.”
Adelaide raised an eyebrow. “When did you find out I like spicy food?”
Lance said, “I heard about it when | went to the Shadow Peaks.”
“Odd,” Adelaide said. “Why never meetwhen you're there? We know each other. Why not say hello?”

Looking at his shifting expressions, Adelaide realized everyone had their own pains.

seem careless.
After consulting Halsey and Adelaide, they settled on a date half a year later.
Lance turned to Adelaide and said, “I need to go to the Shadow Peaks again. Will you cwith me?”
Adelaide shook her head, a flicker of sadness in her eyes. “I won't go.”
On the Shadow Peaks, there had been a carefree girl named Adelaide.
She had left her true self there. When she severed the mate bond, she stayed away, only writing letters to her
teacher and friends.
