The next day goes by uneventful. "Two more days," Luciano keeps saying to his men and when I come in they stop talking. I'm getting sick of not seeing him. As I sit on our shared bed, watching Brave since she's one of my favorite princess, I recall the events of yesterday.

The trip. 

Seeing my brother and his mate.

Mr. Francoure.

I don't know, somethings really fishy about that man. I've never felt weird like that except for when I first met Luciano and his touch sparked tingles. I should speak with an expert.

I glance at the clock, which reads 9:20pm. 

An elder should still be up at this hour maybe. I throw on a purple sleep romper and my slippers and peek out into the hall, looking for anyone that could potentially catch me.

I swiftly make it to the 3rd floor and as I step off the last stair, a guard walks down the end of the hall and becomes out of sight as he walks away.

I breathe out and get a few doors down until I hear commotion not far from me. I slip into the laundry room and turn the light off, locking the door.

"Hey!" A woman's voice calls out and I jump, turning back on the light.

"Oh, do forgive me I didn't realize anyone else was in here." I apologize to the older woman folding clothes. Ooo wait. An elder.

"Actually, before I go, I need you to answer a question if you could." I say, lowering my voice and she looks intrigued.

"Yes dear?" She leans in, beckoning me to continue.

"Is it possible to have multiple mates?" I silently ask, and she starts to stroke her chin, narrowing her eyes at me. A few moments pass and I regret leaving the room in the first place. I open my mouth to disregard the question but she blurts out,

"Yes!"

"What if one already has a loving and caring mate? Why would that person need another?" Sort of complain.

She scoffs and throws a towel at me, not hard, but hard enough to get my attention.

"Don't be silly child! It's truly a blessing from the moon-goddess herself! In the older times, when a she-wolf lived a horrendous and unruly childhood, or faced loads of unfairness, she is granted internal happiness! Tell me love, has this happened to you?" She chuckles and asks.

"What happened? The unruly childhood? Yes. Another mate? I'm not sure yet. But I don't want another. The one I have is perfectly fine now and I wouldn't want to hurt him by developing feelings for another man." I sigh, leaning against the wall.
