Selena had always treated Enzo no differently than her sons since they were children. Having lost his mother at a young age, she felt deep sympathy for him at first. And gradually, as Soren began bringing him to the palace, she genuinely came to care for him.
For the past two decades, they hadn't been in contact at all, making her think perhaps he had begun living so well that he forgot about Revhara and the hardships he faced here.
She often heard nobles criticize him for not being strong like demons were supposed to be, or like his older brother—an alpha who asserted his dominance wherever he went.
Enzo would sit in a corner, surely hoping no one would notice. But Soren and Zayden always found him, keeping him company.
For years, Selena watched this occur countless times, yet she could only remain seated on her throne, like a statue made for decoration. Meant to look pretty, but possessed no voice.
