Chapter 90

  Eero's perspective

  Claudius nodded with a sigh.

  “Marriage and mating ceremonies were done differently here in Regulus. The newlyweds must get the Alpha King's blessing before their mating ceremony. If a couple without the Alpha King's blessing end up having a pup, their pup will be considered a bastard and treated poorly, regardless of their parents' lineage.”

  “You are telling me that if our pup's still alive and we'll ever find him, he'll be seen as a bastard here, just because our marriage isn't valid in Regulus?!" I asked in disbelief.

  "You have this strong feeling that our pup is still alive, right? I had that feeling too when I first saw this picture." Claudius' eyes glistened hope. "I'll track down our pup at any cost.”

  "But I still cannot be with him even after we have him back, right?”

  "We have to hide him away from everyone for now." Claudius cupped my face tenderly.
