Sylvia's POV:
It would be great if Warren could inherit the position of an Alpha. He had been with Leonard ever since he was a child, and to a certain extent, Leonard had already regarded Warren as his own son.
As for what Leonard was worried about, I had a vague idea of what he meant.
He was worried that Warren would attach too much importance to his friends and family. I thought the same.
Leonard sighed. "Warren is stubborn. Pedantic, even. He had adored me ever since he was a child, and he cherished Alina a lot. Owen had always thought that Warren liked Alina, but I don't think he does. He would lose sight of who he is in front of her and unconditionally obey her orders. He wouldn't behave like that if he really loved her."
Deep down, I agreed. Warren was more like Alina's guardian.
Love wasn't that simple.
If Warren was in love, he would be possessive and perhaps would sometimes want to control Alina as well. He wouldn't be so obedient all the time.
"I think they're more like siblings," I said.
Warren and Alina grew up together, and in a traditional sense, they were childhood sweethearts. If they didn't have romantic feelings for each other, then it could only be family affection that bonded them together.
Since Alina had gone to the imperial city and focus on marrying a prince, their relationship withered. What they had been through before had become the past. They had to live their own lives now.
I believed that Warren came back to Alina's wedding simply because they were from the same pack. There was nothing going on between them anymore.
Leonard nodded in agreement with my comment. "You're right. Warren's feelings for Alina are more like brotherly affection than love. I'm glad he found his true love. I instantly noticed that he was possessive and overprotective towards that she-wolf. It's obvious that he's deeply in love. The way he treats that she-wolf is just like how Rufus treats you."
