Adelaide's POV

Lance said, "We're going to be mates. No need for formalities. Go be with him. I've had paper and ink prepared. I know Cedric started learning to read at three. He must remember how to write."

I nodded. "Alright. Let's eat first. I'll ask him afterward."

After Lance left, Cedric relaxed and ate greedily, sticking close to me.

His gaunt face and thin frame made it clear how much he'd suffered.

"Eat slowly," I whispered.

His wolf eyes narrowed as he ate—a stray pup's instinct.

Only when my pheromones signaled safety did he ease his grip on the bowl.

He ate quickly, finishing almost all the meat and sandwiches.

While clearing the table, my nails brushed against old scars on his wrists—teeth marks from chains.

After cleaning up, I set out paper and ink.

Holding his frail wrist, I said, "I know you can write. Even if it's been a while, the characters you learned are still there. Tell me—how did you escape? What happened after?"

As I opened the inkwell, tears dropped onto the

  • A Female Alpha’s Revenge   Chapter 280

    Third Person's POV"Mom!" Wanda looked up, puzzled why her mother would undermine them—of course they should deny it.Madison, seeing her daughter's blank stare, sighed inwardly, "Fool! The ledger was taken from the jewelry store—there must be witnesses. A handwriting comparison with Johnson would reveal the truth. How could she claim it's fake?"She snapped, "Wanda, how do you manage your staff? Never visit the store? Not even aware of being deceived? How can you face Priscilla?"Wanda finally caught on, anger flaring, "Johnson dare cheat me? How dare he! I'll summon him right now!"She signaled to the steward, who started to leave, but Adelaide coolly said, "No need. I've detained that deceitful Johnson at the Blackthorn Pack. Once you confirm you were also duped, I'll have him bound and sent to the judiciary."Adelaide sipped her coffee, smiling faintly, "I'm a decisive person. The ledger is here. Call your accountants now, as many as you like. If you're short on staff, I'll send f

    Third Person's POVMadison glanced at her and said, "If you keep using that brain of yours, within three years, your mate's mother will have you kicked out of the pack."Hearing this, Wanda's face fell. "That hateful she-wolf, I'll poison her sooner or later."Madison coldly replied, "Do me a favor and stay out of trouble. If you cause a mess and expect me to clean it up, do you think she is someone to trifle with? You might as well try getting close to her before you talk big."Wanda was feeling downcast. "Forget her. What do you think Priscilla and that wretched Adelaide are here for, Mother?"Madison put down her cutlery. An omega handed her water, which she sipped before taking a napkin to wipe her lips.After tossing the napkin aside and standing up, an omega draped her cloak over her. She strode out, saying, "Shall we go take a look?"Seeing this, Wanda also put on a cloak and followed.Upon reaching the side hall, Madison first noticed several boxes on the ground. Her eyebrows

    Third Person's POV"Is that all?" Adelaide sneered. "I asked for the truth. If you hide anything, you'll taste this poker."The red-hot poker was thrust right before Manager Johnson, who screamed and fell to the floor, "I'll talk! I'll talk!"Adelaide coldly warned, "Tell the truth. One lie, and you'll swallow this poker."Staring at the glowing poker, Johnson prostrated himself and confessed, "Luna Adelaide, Wanda said to pin the blame on Priscilla when trouble hit. Since Priscilla is Alpha Lance's mother, she can take the heat. Then Madison would step in to arrange compensation using the store's cheap inventory..."He hesitated mid-speech.Adelaide cut in, "So Madison feigns virtue to win public favor, while Priscilla and the Blackthorn Pack are labeled as villains. The compensation is all subpar goods—nearly costless. They make a profit and gain a good reputation."Johnson's face drained of color, his silence confirming Adelaide's deduction.Adelaide had Johnson taken away and snee

    Third Person's POVPriscilla's emotions were all over her face.But now, she'd learned to put on a show in front of Madison.Her pheromones quivered with emotional fluctuations, finally sighing helplessly as cedar notes gently brushed Priscilla's hair.Adelaide said no more, first ordering food for her.After Priscilla ate, Adelaide spoke, "Fetch the partnership contract for me. We need to check for loopholes and prepare accordingly."Priscilla's eyes welled up. "What if there are loopholes?""There's always a way. Hand it over first."Adelaide turned to Susan, knowing where the contract was kept.Soon, Susan returned with it.Adelaide read the contract three times from start to finish, finding no issues—it was fair.As for the shareholders, Priscilla used Susan's name, while Wanda used Johnson's—he was her servant.Noblewomen in business often didn't use their own names.Official procedures were a hassle, and there was the issue of avoiding public exposure.They'd use a husband, son,

    Third Person's POVAdelaide first checked in with Beta Ralph to get the lay of the land, particularly regarding the Golden Jewelry Store.Ralph assured her that Johnson was under control and the store was under surveillance—no one would leak information.Relieved, Adelaide headed to the pack's finance room.Priscilla was still reviewing the books, but the room was filled with anxious werewolves who stood up as she entered.The air was thick with Priscilla's bitter almond-scented pheromones, laced with grievance, creating an oppressive atmosphere that forced everyone to bow their heads.The office was in disarray. Everything on the desk except the ledgers had been thrown about, and several cups lay smashed.Priscilla's hair was disheveled, her face ashen. Upon seeing Adelaide, her emotions erupted, and she burst into tears."They deceived me!" Her pupils contracted with emotion, and an unnatural redness crept into the corners of her eyes.Adelaide's Alpha presence, marked by a cedar sc

    Third Person's POVLycan Erasmus was Craig's No. 1 fan.When Craig first came to the Frostfang Pack, Lycan Erasmus had visited in person—a testament to Craig's stature.Lycan Erasmus had even tried to recruit him for the Royal Council, as someone like Craig deserved nothing less than reverence.Scholars and officials across the werewolf kingdom held Craig in the highest regard."When are you leaving?" Adelaide asked tearfully."No exact date yet. We'll let you know," Irene replied."Promise not to leave without telling me," Adelaide said, her eyes glistening.Irene agreed, "We won't leave in secret."But Adelaide wasn't entirely convinced. Irene had a habit of avoiding farewells. She remembered how Irene would hide, claiming to be busy, whenever Adelaide went home.After lunch, Craig and the others pulled Lance into the side room.They spoke cautiously, their words filled with requests for him to take care of Adelaide. Though there was no outright threat, the pressure was palpable bet
