“My son returns.”
Andrei bowed, holding the obeisance until she shifted, indicating he might rise. Queen Izobelle sat behind her desk, fingers steepled as she contemplated him with the unblinking intensity of a praying mantis.
The flight had been long and every minute that passed away from Hannah he felt the strain of their bond. Too far away, too long away. But he hadn't dared bring her into the country without preparing his mother first.
The Queen tended to shift and rampage first, ask questions later.
“It irked me to return home without my son at my side,” she continued, contralto tones pleasant. Friendly, even. Andrei tensed, knowing that his mate wouldn't understand his wariness of his own mother, a female. Not many societies left appreciated the true ferocity of the female. And female Bears were truly frightening when riled.
In a way, once Hannah matured into her role as Princess, she would hold as much authority among the people of Casakraine as he. He was his mother’s Heir because she believed the throne should go to the firstborn, regardless of gender. Otherwise his younger sister would have been Queen after Izobelle. Miahela was more suited to rule. But if Izobelle refused to acknowledge the mating... Andrei refused to consider the possibility. His mother would acknowledge Hannah. Izobelle had no other choice.
The Queen rose, walking around her desk, gaze trained on him. “There is something in your eyes, Andrei,” she said, voice soft. “What have you been up to? Where is your mate?”
“I wanted to speak to you in person first. Offer you a choice.”
Her sleek blue black brow rose. “A choice? You offer me a choice?” She laughed. “Please, enlighten me.”
His expression hardened. “My mate is human, Mother.”
Izobelle stilled, emotion bleeding from her face. “So. Every Casakraine Heir exerts their independence from their Sovereign by making an ass of themselves. It is family tradition. I didn’t imagine you would rise up to the expectations of our lineage so spectacularly, son.”
He wanted to strangle her. He loved her, and respected her. But he wanted to strangle her. “It wasn’t on purpose, Izobelle.”
Her eyes narrowed. She hated when he called her by her name. “I thought your little vacation was going to be the worst of it, but I suppose even I can be wrong.”
“I left her in the States,” Andrei said. “But I need her by my side. Are you going to allow her into the country or not?”
She bared her teeth in a... smile. “Now, why do you imagine I wouldn't?”
