Chapter 21 Summary:
The mystery of the human intruder is solved with a shocking revelation: the prisoner is none other than Adora, Lisette’s beloved younger sister. While Lisette is overwhelmed with both joy and terror for her sister’s life, Joshua quickly steps in as a protector. He calms Lisette by promising to shield Adora from the Werewolf Parliament, who would surely demand a death sentence for a human trespasser. His plan is to keep Adora’s presence a secret until Lisette is officially crowned Queen, at which point they can legally grant her asylum. However, the situation becomes complicated when Adora herself becomes uncooperative. Despite the danger she is in, Adora stubbornly refuses to reveal the identity of the person who smuggled her into the werewolf world, leaving Joshua and Lisette to wonder if a traitor is lurking within their own walls.
