Brian POV
I observed her as she gazed out of the car window, her eyes fixed on the passing trees. It was clear that her thoughts extended far beyond the scenery, and she must have had a lot on her mind. This reminded me of the conversation I had with Ace before coming to her side.
"Are you sure about all of this, Ace?" I had questioned him. "You're aware that once you become king, you can never have another mate due to the werewolf rules. So, marrying Tanisha means you and Kayla will no longer be mates."
"I had to make that choice to save her life, Brian," Ace responded, his tone burdened with the weight of his decision. "If you think it's wrong, understand that I had no other option. The future of Salvador rests on my shoulders, and if I do nothing, it would all be in vain."
