“Third Person's POV
Adelaide sat knitting a sweater and glanced at the letter. “You've not only cleared yourself from this case, but
you're also getting to the truth. It’s a win-win situation,” she remarked.
Lance watched her needles fly, gradually shaping a duck.
After a moment, he said. “It’s more than a win-win. It's a triple gain. Now everyone knows | insisted on a retrial,
and not just any retrial-a special commissioner's retrial. Someone's trying to takedown, but I'll use their
schto boost my public support and leave them seething”
Adelaide smiled gently and returned to her knitting.
Curious, Lance asked, “Who's the duck for?”
“It’s for Melinda's baby-a little sweater. As an aunt, | should show saffection, she replied.
Lance frowned. “The thought’s sweet, but buying a gift would be simpler. The pack has professional weavers.
Your hands are meant for weapons, not needles. It's a bit of a waste, don’t you think?”

Lance thought to himself that she did like it as a child, even if she lacked talent.
He inquired about Melinda. “How’s she holding up? Dwight’s been ousted-surely he’s cooled down?”
Adelaide shook her head. “He's all ‘true love. How could be cool down? He's not only unrestrained but now won't
even visit Melinda's room.”
“True love?” Lance grimaced. “That's an insult to that term. What about his breeder-the merchant's daughter?”
“She's rarely seen him,” Adelaide said, her face flushing with anger.
“She’s only twenty, from a family that’s a far cry from the Soulrend Pack. She's trapped, a pawn in her father’s

“Outsiders say she volunteered, Ivy interjected as she brought in the soup.
Adelaide retorted, “They claim she chose it. But who cares about her true feelings? Who bothers to see that she
might just want a stable, ordinary life with a plain mate?”
Lance was touched by her words. You've hardly interacted with her, yet you champion her... You genuinely

At that moment, Beata announced, “Luna Adelaide, Georgina has arrived.”
“Show her to the conference hall at once, Adelaide said, rising quickly, wondering if the evening visit signaled
surgency.
Lately, Georgina and Paige had dropped by occasionally, but always during the day, never in the
evening.
Although Lance and Georgina hadn't crossed paths often during his tin the Shadow Peaks, they'd met a few
times since she'd cto the capital and were aware of each other's affiliations.
“I'll go with you. If she’s cthis late, it must be important, Lance offered.
In the conference hall, Georgina sat with a cup of coffee. She didn’t wait for it to cool and drank it straight away,
clearly parched.
Seeing Adelaide and Lance enter, she didn’t stand but simply greeted them by name.
“Georgina!” the couple chorused.
“Take a seat. I'll make it quick,” she said, her tone calm as always.
When she was this composed, it usually meant something urgent.
“Is something wrong with Melinda?” Adelaide asked, pulling Lance into a chair.
