LOGINThird Person's POV
Ulrik didn't know how things at the Bloodscar Border would unfold.
Lycan Erasmus hadn't taken action yet, but he'd already dispatched surveillance on the Bloodmoon Pack.
It was certain that if the capital's situation changed, the Bloodmoon Pack would be affected.
The new Lycan King of the Western Tribes didn't care about face like Lycan Erasmus.
While others enjoyed the glory, Ulrik could only scrape by.
In this moment, he felt utte
Third Person's POVLydia shook her head frantically, her voice trembling."I really don't know! The moment I handed over the herbs and gave her the message, she kicked me out of the room."She stopped, a sudden realization hitting her as she gasped."Wait! I remember now... later, when I went back into her room, I smelled something burning. In the ashes of the fireplace... there were some charred scraps of parchment that hadn't burned all the way through!"Christine locked eyes with her, pressing for more details until she was satisfied nothing was missed. She finally leaned back and gestured for the guards outside to enter.Just then, the door swung open and Gloria walked in, her voice trailing a string of complaints."What on earth are you investigating? I'm the Luna of the Bloodmoons, and you won't even tell me the truth! Now all the omegas are hiding and slacking off—there's no one even making dinner!"Christine ignor
Third Person's POVChristine had given her a harsh lashing with words, warning her that as a Luna, she needed to exert her authority during a crisis to protect the pack.Gloria, completely stunned by the scolding, slunk back to the pack house, yet she continued to dump all pack affairs onto the aging Alpha Isaiah Turner.Once word of this got out, the noble circles of the capital were rife with mockery for the Bloodmoons.Meanwhile, the protective barrier at the edge of the Bloodmoon territory flickered almost imperceptibly as Christine arrived with her trusted subordinates.The moment she stepped into the packhouse, she commanded Gloria to hand over the roster of every omega in the pack."What do you need those for?" Gloria asked, looking utterly lost."To find a way to save Ulrik, obviously," Christine replied coldly.Gloria tried to press for details, but Christine cut her off impatiently."I'll explain later. Right now, do exactly what I said. Now!"Gloria had no choice but to com
Third Person's POVPrincess Helia led her exhausted team out of the Protocol Hall and back to their quarters.The Northern officials, however, didn't leave. They stayed behind, locked in a heated strategy session for the next round of talks.Cyrus joined the discussion, pointing out a critical red line."We absolutely cannot agree to the third condition regarding food supplies. The Western Tribe suffered a brutal winter last year, and their army is starving. If we send them those rations, we are literally feeding the enemy so they can better attack our own soldiers on the battlefield!"He paused, adding firmly, "Furthermore, Lycan Erasmus has made it clear: there will be no retreat from our current border lines!"After speaking his piece, Cyrus left, feeling a sense of relief. Lance's performance at the table today had given him the confidence that the North's interests were in good hands.Meanwhile, in the cold, damp cells of the Roy
Third Person's POVHelia was the first to break the heavy silence.Her voice carried the unmistakable aura of a Lycan's command."Your nation unilaterally tore up the pact to protect civilians and spare prisoners of war. It was an atrocity that angered the Moon Goddess. However, our slaughter of the Frostfang Pack was equally a bloody transgression."Her eyes burned like torches as she continued, "If these negotiations are to proceed, both sides must acknowledge these blood-stained facts. Only on this foundation can true discussions begin."The translators quickly relayed her words.Lance and Elias exchanged a look and nodded in agreement.With that, the high-stakes negotiation that would decide the fate of two kingdoms officially commenced.The Western Tribe didn't waste time on pleasantries; they laid out five non-negotiable conditions.First, a formal apology from the Northern Kingdom to the slaughtered civilians of t
Third Person's POVThe Northern officials were willing to offer formal apologies, gold, and mineral resources for the Snowdeer Town massacre. However, their primary goal was to secure a chance for a fair hearing rather than facing the tens of thousands of Western troops currently massed at the border.The Western diplomats distributed the parchment dossiers regarding the Snowdeer Town incident.Included were numerous gruesome eyewitness accounts—the truth as reconstructed by the Western soldiers who had been captured alongside the Crown Prince and later managed to escape.The civilians of Snowdeer Town had not been entirely wiped out; survivors hiding in cellars and snow pits had witnessed the hellish slaughter firsthand.In these documents, the identity of the late Crown Prince was scrubbed, using the alias "Rowan" instead.But Lance and Elias knew the truth: "Rowan" was actually Crown Prince Lucian.As Lance and his team read
Third Person's POVBy bringing up the assassination attempt and demanding a formal response before the actual negotiations even started, Lance appeared candid and sincere, but he was actually applying massive psychological pressure on the Western delegation.In fact, the Western envoys almost wished Lance would be sleazier—they wanted him to use the incident as a blatant bargaining chip. That way, both sides could drop the pretense of diplomatic grace and get straight to the cutthroat business of national interests.At this moment, every member of the delegation—except for Bobby Potter—was cursing Damian in their hearts.A trigger-happy idiot like him thought he could replace Pierce? Utterly delusional.Lance maintained a calm gaze, locked in a silent standoff with his counterparts.He knew this was a psychological war of attrition. The Westerners held the "Bloodscar Massacre" card; they should have been the ones roaring in

Third Person's POVPaisley and Avery grasped the deeper implications of Adelaide's words.The Western Tribe's situation would soon undergo significant changes. When the new Lycan King ascended, he would likely launch a thorough investigation into the Snowdeer Town incident.T
Third Person's POV"I don't know where Alpha Lance is. But of course, I wouldn't harm him. Since Alpha Lance isn't here and he's Lycan Erasmus's own brother, Lycan Erasmus will protect him. But you're different. We're with you now, not Alpha Lance. Naturally, we're looking out for you."Tad pondere
Third Person's POVUlrik's eyes were as cold as ice as he said, "I wish you could tell me that you didn't do those things in Snowdeer Town."Velda sneered, "You despise me because of Snowdeer Town incident? No, you're disgusted that I was captured on the mountain, that I was disfigured, thinking me
