Chapter 138

Shea’s POV

I live as a rogue now, far from the princess life I once knew in the Royal Pack.

I approached our simple shelter and smelled the aroma of roasted herbs in the air. Opening the creaky wooden door, I saw Vlad, illuminated by warm light from inside. He looked relieved and proud as he saw me, and his face brightened with a gentle smile.

"Welcome back, Shea!" Vlad exclaimed happily. "And look who's here to greet you!"

Beside Vlad stood a young boy, his eyes wide with curiosity and excitement. My heart skipped a beat.

"Mommy!" I smiled widely, reaching out my hand to welcome him. Yes, I found out I was pregnant when I left the White Fang Castle five years ago and Bradley was the fruit of it.

I knelt down, letting the game fall from my shoulder, and smiled at my little boy.

He looked at me intently and reached out to touch my shoulder. "You're really strong, Mommy," he said in awe. I ruffled his hair in return, making him pout.

I glanced at Vlad, my eyes filled with gratitude.
