She is wolfless and weak. Seen as the ugly duckling. Imagine being rejected by your mate, the king. Then a few years later, one wild night, you find yourself numb and in bed with someone, feeling powerless. That night results in pregnancy; your father, the viscount, is disgusted by you and exiles you from the pack and the city, not wanting you to dishonour the family name anymore. When six years later, you have your pups and a husband, a call comes through, and it's finally time to go back home. The prince who once rejected you was king, and now, you realise just who it was that you had spent that night with, and just who the father is to your pups. Now that he is ready to accept you as his mate, you're not willing to let his vile behaviour from before pass.
