A Female Alpha’s Revenge

Chapter 254

Third Person’s POV

He kept quiet. Today was Lance’s mating ceremony–everything else had to wait.

But Caldwell sighed. What was Priscilla thinking, giving her son’s mate’s gifts to others?

Would a normal person do that?

He just couldn’t see how such a “simple” Priscilla could have a son as wise as Lance.

After chatting with guests, Adelaide returned to their future home with Lance.

As the groom, he couldn’t leave yet and had to socialize more.

Adelaide watched him leave, the warmth of his hand seemingly still lingering on hers.

The room was warm, and so was her heart.

Falling for someone was involuntary. No matter how she tried to restrain her feelings, she could only watch helplessly as her heart sank into Lance’s gentle eyes.

Ivy came in and told Beata and the others to join the banquet.

Omegas could enjoy a full meal too, just not at the wolf pack’s square.

Beata and the others, who had followed Adelaide through the mating ceremony without eating, were hungry.

But Beata was more worried about Adelaide’s hunger. “Ivy, is there any food here for Alpha Adelaide?” she asked.

“There’s small–plate pasta ready for her. Once Alpha Lance finishes entertaining guests, they can eat together. Alpha Lance hasn’t eaten either,” Ivy replied.

Adelaide looked up. “How can he just drink and not eat? Can’t anyone help him have some food?”

Ivy smiled. “Oh, Alpha Adelaide’s already learning to care for her mate.”

Adelaide’s face turned scarlet. “Don’t be ridiculous. It’s just not good to drink on an empty stomach.”

After sending the others off, Ivy shut the door. It was time to share some news with Adelaide.

Now mated to Lance, Adelaide needed to know.

Ivy had planned to wait until Lance marked her, but seeing Adelaide’s growing affection for Lance, she couldn’t delay anymore.

She brought a chair and sat facing Adelaide, looking at her with relief,

Today, Adelaide was radiant, more so than during her mating with Ulrik.

It wasn’t just the makeup—it was the love in her heart that made her glow. The sweet feeling was evident in her every expression.

Are you happy, Alpha Adelaide?”

Ivy asked, holding Adelaide’s hand and gently rubbing the calluses with some Digby’s salve–a gift to soften the skin and add a pleasant scent.

Adelaide rubbed her neck. “It’s just a mating ceremony. I’ve been through it before,” she said, though happiness mixed with a touch of sadness filled her heart.

She was falling for Lance, who had his own reasons for mating with her.

He was just putting up with her–how could she show too much joy?

She reminded herself not to get carried away, lest she give him her whole heart and risk future pain if he grew distant.

Ivy, of course, saw through Adelaide’s act.

She had watched her grow up, even after Adelaide went to the Shadow Peaks and returned.

She knew Adelaide’s thoughts too well.

“Today, I need to tell you something. After I’m done, you can decide whether to be happy or not,” Ivy said, giving Adelaide’s hand a gentle squeeze.

Adelaide’s curiosity was piqued. “What is it?”

As Ivy rubbed salve onto Adelaide’s other hand, she lowered her eyes, hiding the sorrow that surfaced when mentioning Luna Airella. “After you returned, Luna Airella decided to find you a mate. Many Alphas from powerful packs came to the Frostfang Pack.”

Adelaide nodded. “I know that much.”

“But what you don’t know is that this was before you returned from the Shadow Peaks,” Ivy continued, gently massaging the salve.in.

Adelaide sighed. “I know about Alpha Bentley and my brothers‘ sacrifice, and Lance becoming the new -commander. Ivy, there’s no need to bring it up.”

Today, mentioning her father and brothers upset her more than usual.

“Please, hear me out,” Ivy insisted, pushing back her tears.

She wouldn’t cry today. “The night before Alpha Lance left the city, around nine in the evening, Luna Airella was already in bed. But when she heard he’d come to see her, she got dressed again and went out to meet him.”

Adelaide froze, her heart skipping a beat as a thought struck her. Her voice trembled. “Why would he come so late?”

Her pheromones fluctuated wildly, revealing her inner excitement.
