Freya wiped her tears and played along. “When your family … had that accident, my mom was scared you’d break down. She stayed by your side day and night.

“Laila, you were the one who asked the Alpha King to break the mate bond with Holt. Holt and I never wanted you to leave!”
Elara clutched her chest dramatically. “I still remember you saying you’d always treat me like your mom! When you left, I almost emptied Ironclaw Pack’s storage just to make sure you’d be okay.

When the crowd was still murmuring, Faulkner stepped forward. “Mrs. Enclaw,” he said calmly, “I’m Faulkner White, the Beta butler of Silvermoon Pack. You’re ill. It’s not good for on the ground. Now, I’d like to clear up a few facts-”

“You’re just a butler! What right do you have to speak for Laila? Let her talk herself! What does she want? Does she only feel better if I die?”
Faulkner’s gray beard moved slightly as he gave a cold smile. “Managing pack affairs and easing Ms. Conlay’s burden is my job. If she had to handle every small matter herself, that would mean I failed at my job.”
He took a thick, rolled scroll from Martha. It was made of treated animal hide.
