"Ulrike, I see you came," Cassius greeted, and Ulrike ignored him, focusing on his mate. He had known that Zelina was fighting the rogue wolves and while he had wanted to help, Zelina had told him that she would try to talk to Cassius.

"Are you okay? Should I kill one of them? Which one of them hurt you? Even if you want the king dead, I'll do it," Ulrike said sincerely, and Cassius just smiled.
He knew they had worked together for so many years and Ulrike wouldn't just kill him like that, unless Cassius was the one who tried to harm his mate, but the wolf king hadn't done anything of the sort.
