Chapter 350 She Understands Me
Prince Adam’s POV:
Why would a fringe prince-someone long known for his bad reputation and love of pleasure-suddenly begin gathering wealth so aggressively and forming alliances with packs outside his territory?
“He’s seeking greater hidden benefits.” Cindy’s eyes were as cold as ice. “He might even be planning something that could shake the Royal Court itself.”
“This matter is extremely serious.” I tightened my grip on Cindy’s hand, my expression more solemn than ever before. “Uncle Niall is still my uncle and a core member of the royal family. Without solid proof, no one would dare move against him. I’ll keep an eye on this quietly. I’ll activate the old intelligence network that remained loyal to me from my days in the military. They can investigate what his territory and Scarlet Pack have been doing recently.”
“But that’s too dangerous, Adam.” Cindy held my hand tightly, worry filling her eyes. “Your identities are sensitive. If he discovers you are investigating him, and he becomes desperate
“Cindy,” I said with a small smile as I gently smoothed her furrowed brows.
“Did you forget who I am? I may be King Ryken eldest son, but before that, I was a soldier. I once served as the grand marshal of Southreach
I straightened my back and stared at the snowy landscape outside. My voice was calm, but every word carried weight. “If Uncle Niall is truly plotting something shady behind the scenes, if he really plans to commit treason against the kingdom, then once he makes his move, the first to suffer will be the soldiers on the front lines. Even the unarmed citizens of this kingdom will not be spared.
“As a prince, I’ve lived on the support of the people. I cannot simply watch a venomous seed grow near the heart of the kingdom. Even if the path ahead is dangerous, I must uncover the truth.”
Cindy looked at me. The worry in her eyes slowly turned into deep understanding and respect.
I knew it. She wasn’t like the usual noble ladies. She was a warrior as well. She could understand me.
