The hall leading to the Alpha quarters was colder than the rest of the estate. Like even the walls knew not to speak.
I had no intention of coming here without an invitation. Royal etiquette dictated that noble guests never entered private quarters without permission. But this wasn't a social call. I'd already searched every accessible part of the estate—courtyards, pack houses, even servant quarters. The only places left were the dungeons... and this.
I couldn't access the dungeon without raising alarms or giving a politically justifiable reason.
But the Alpha quarters?
They wouldn't dare close the door in a prince's face, would they? So, I decided to visit this place first and confirm that she wasn't here before planning my next move toward the dungeons—without alarming anyone.
