Ave pursed her lips as she approached him again. Though she didn't know that werewolves were real, she'd read of how the ones with Alpha blood liked to take command and act mighty. She couldn't help but also wonder why the prince was willingly giving her a ride on his back. When she came to stand by his side, wondering how on earth she was going to get on his back, she was lifted by someone from behind and placed swiftly on his back.
When she settled on his back with a startled gasp, she turned to see that it was Zane who had lifted her and placed her on the wolf's back. She could see the worry in his grayish-hazel eyes even though he tried to look normal as he handed her a lamp and a robe. "For His Highness," he told her as he placed the robe on her lap and offered her a small bow of respect. "Good luck."
