At the Royal Palace, Addison returned to the inner palace alongside her father after another court meeting. As they walked together through the marble halls, she glanced up at him and said softly, "Father, may I join the border patrol again? I heard I used to patrol with the Royal Warriors, and it might help me recover some of my lost memories. It would also be good training to strengthen my body."
She tilted her head slightly and looked up at him with wide, pleading eyes—mimicking the expression her sons used when they wanted something. It always worked on her. Now, even though she was no longer a little girl, she hoped her father still had a soft spot for her.
"Are you sure you can handle the patrol duty?" the Alpha King asked, eyeing Addison with visible hesitation.
