Matilda's question carried more fear than authority.
Amara noticed it immediately and almost laughed in that moment.
How ironic. These were the same people who once controlled every part of her life. Now they looked afraid to even question her properly.
Amara calmly answered for herself. "I am here with the permission of His Royal Highness." Then, she deliberately paused before adding, "The Alpha Prince."

Anthony's lips pressed together while Matilda said nothing. Both fell silent instantly.
Nearby, Lila's expression darkened. Jealousy flashed openly across her face, which Amara noticed but chose to ignore.
A moment later, Hazel grabbed Amara's hand. "Come with us."
Rachel and Davina were already smiling. "We need to talk before we leave."
Amara gladly followed them. They were the very reason she came.
