The brothers were initially discussing daily life, but the conversation gradually shifted to official business. Lycan
Erasmus inquired about scases Lance was handling at the Ministry of Justice.
With the year-end closure approaching, carly decisions on certain cases were necessary.
As these kingdom-related topics were unsuitable for Camilla and Adelaide to overhear, Camilla invited Adelaide
to explore the palace gardens.
They strolled ahead, trailed by a string of attendants.
Camilla said with a smile, “I know you grew up in the Shadow Peaks. It’s said that the most beautiful plum
blossoms in the werewolf kingdom are there. But please, make do with the palace’s offerings.”
Adelaide replied, “That's a misconception. Plum blossoms from different regions each have their own beauty.”
Camilla chuckled, “Yes, each has its own charm. Life is full of wonders. | initially thought | would co- manage
Lycan Erasmus with you, but instead, we've becfamily. Regardless, our bond is truly fated.”
Adelaide agreed, “We do have a fated connection.” There was no awkwardness in her voice when recalling the
past.
They were both discerning individuals, no need for pretense.
Since everything was settled, being too guarded would only breed suspicion and cause friction.
Once they reached the green plum blossoms, Camilla remarked, “Zelda will be mating next year. | hear she
shares a rapport with my cousin Alger, but Priscilla has set her sights on another brother of mine. Adelaide,
mutual affection is ideal. Too much scheming can make life miserable, don’t you think?”
Adelaide pondered for a moment and grasped Camilla’s implication..
She smiled and said, “You're right. But as Zelda's brother's mate, her mating is not my decision to make. I can,
however, understand the girl's feelings.”
Camilla gained a deeper appreciation for Adelaide-conversing with her was effortless, as they both grasped the

Camilla had no other recourse. Priscilla, having seen Ansley Francis wed a daughter from the Wall family, wished
for Zelda to marry into the same.
Clarissa acquiesced, and Lycan Erasmus, being filial, would heed Clarissa.
Yet, among the Wall sons, only Alger, who disliked reading and preferred a leisurely life of dog-walking and cat-
teasing, stood out.
The rest were diligent, aspiring to secure positions within the Royal Council of Elders.
Especially Emlyn, who had studied hard since childhood with the goal of becoming a top-tier talent.

If he were to mate with Zelda, his future in the royal core would be jeopardized. What then would be the point of
his efforts?
Knowing she couldn’t meddle in Zelda's mating matters, Camilla sought Adelaide’s assistance.
She had anticipated Adelaide’s reluctance to help, but her last remark indicated willingness.
Camilla expressed her gratitude and said, “Should Zelda mate with Alger, | shall send you a grand gift. | already
owe you a favor.”
Adelaide smiled but remained silent.
She had no need for grand gifts or favors from Lycan Luna. Yet, adhering to the principle that it's better to have
friends than foes, she knew how to act.
She understood Alger and knew Zelda's feelings, but the opposition cfrom the critical Priscilla.
She was willing to facilitate a good match, treating Zelda like her own sister.
With that, they left the palace.
Lance returned to the Blackthorn Pack first, while Adelaide took Priscilla in the scarriage to Madison's house.
Priscilla felt uncomfortable being alone with Adelaide and invited Susan to join them.
For sreason, Priscilla found Adelaide's face irritating-she expected lectures, especially from juniors.
But the journey was relatively peaceful.
As they neared Madison's house,

Naive much? Who would advise a senior to steal their son’s partner's wedding gifts and give them to her?
Adelaide glanced at Susan, noting her unease, and asked, “Susan, what's your take?”
Susan forced a smile, “Well... it’s unlikely she wouldn't give them back. Priscilla is right. Besides, why Madison
covet your pink diamonds?”
The last few words were barely audible.
Susan knew everything but chose to stay silent.
Perhaps she had advised Priscilla before, to no avail. Now, she opted to turn a blind eye and deaf ear.
Adelaide wanted to sneer.
Looking at Priscilla’'s smug face, she
couldn't contain herself and said,
“She won't return Pererouny
