After Anthony's confusing words, I went to my room and quickly took a shower and got changed into a turtleneck, wine-red coloured top, blue denim-washed jeans and paired them with my red ankle-length boots. Then I headed towards Daniel's study where Anthony was already present.

Anthony was seated on the chair opposite to Daniel's. Since there wasn't any other vacant seat left except the couch on the far end, I took a seat next to him.

It seems like he took a bath as well since his dark hair was slightly wet and had messily fallen on his forehead which he didn't bother to brush away. He wore a pair of black jeans and a white shirt of which the top three buttons were left undone. His chocolaty brown eyes accessed me and he gave me the slightest of a smile.

I simply looked away feeling my face grow warm for some unfathomable reason. Maybe it's 'cause he looks so damn hot like that.

I caught sight of Daniel smirking and I narrowed my eyes at him. He simply shrugged at that. My brother was seated behind the cherry-wood desk in the study.

The study was like any normal study room in a castle. Books and files stocked up at one corner in a huge wooden shelf. A cherry wood table at the centre with ink quills and paperweights placed on top of it and a few scrambled papers. To the other corner, was a couch which Daniel recently placed there so that Ariana could be comfortable enough here whenever she decided to be around him during his 'prince duty' work hours.

Many times, I'd even seen Ari sleeping on the couch while Daniel would simply sit in front of her sleeping form after his work is done and stare at her face instead of waking her up and then smile like a maniac. He's really whipped. But a good kind of whipped. I'm glad my brother finally got his 'one true love' after losing both of his mates. Mates who I don't even want to talk about. If one was a bitch, then the other was an even greater bitch.

"So, Carla, where'd you get that little boy from?" My reverie is cut off by Ariel's sweet voice.

I whip my head to the left where she sat next to Daniel's chair scanning a file in her hand. I didn't even notice she was here! She places that file down on the desk and asks again but this time to all of us,

"Am I the only one or does anyone else feel like they've seen the kid somewhere?" Ariel asks, her baby blue eyes accessing us as she tilts her head to the side quizzically.

Ariel's one hell of a cutie with that golden blonde hair and baby blue eyes. She looks so sweet and innocent, just like she is. But one would receive the shock of their lives when they saw this sweet werewolf queen slaughtering the ones who cause danger to her kingdom. As they say, the sweetest are the most dangerous when meddled with.

"I think I've seen him too." Daniel wondered out loud, "I don't know why but those eyes, they look so familiar."

"I feel a connection with the child. I can't explain it but I do," Anthony added, musing as he nodded at Daniel before his eyes landed on me, "What about you, Princess?"

I refrained myself from blushing at the stupid endearment. Why does it even bother me? I am the queen's sister. So, technically I'm a princess. I shouldn't be feeling giddy-ish when Anthony calls me that, right? Why am I acting like a love-sick teenager again?! Didn't you learn your lesson already, Carla, you dumb woman!

I scolded myself a bit more before looking back at the ones who are waiting patiently for me to speak.

"I don't know. All I care about is that he's lost and has to be returned back to his parents. Maybe Noah is the son of an Alpha? That's why we feel like we must've seen him somewhere considering Alpha's don't let their children's out in the public but they attend the royal ball with their children. Maybe we must've seen him in one of the balls?" I answered thoughtfully before something clicked into my head.
