Third Person's POV
Abigail threw herself into her grandmother's arms, burying her head there for a good while before lifting it again.
Her eyes were red, but they sparkled as if every word she spoke was from the heart.
Adelaide and Paisley exchanged glances, both feeling something was off.
But since their mission was to persuade Abigail to give up, and now they could give Doug and Eugene an answer, they didn't press further.
After leaving Doug's, they headed back to the Blackthorn Pack, planning to send someone to inform Eugene of the outcome.
Initially, Adelaide intended to merely pass on the result, but after a moment's thought, she decided to have Paisley deliver Abigail's exact words personally.
Though Adelaide was a bit slow in matters of the heart, she could sense Abigail's barely concealed distress after making her swift decision.
Could it be that Abigail's feelings for Eugene were more than a fleeting fancy? Had they cr
Third Person's POV"See? This is you. This is what everyone thinks of you—mad, reckless, shameless, and without a shred of dignity," she said, grabbing Gloria's hand."Let's go. You wanted to see Cynthia? Let's go. Let's make her furious and then you can die. Then the pack will finally have peace."Gloria recoiled in terror, her breathing ragged."No, no! I'm not like that. I'm not mad. I won't go, I won't!"An omega helped Christine sit down as tears streamed down her face.She reflected on her life since joining the Ironclaw Pack.She had devoted herself to the pack, never neglecting Cynthia, Gloria, Tad, or even Tad's breeder's children.In the early years, when the breeders caused a commotion and Tad sided with them, she had endured a lot.She had worked tirelessly to secure Tad's position and reputation to protect their offspring.Everyone relied on her, but not everyone obeyed.Over the years, o

Third Person's POV"I think Lycan Erasmus might send you to the Bloodscar Border or put you in charge of the royal troops in the capital. But he's also watching you all to see where you fit best," Lance said."But Alpha Zander's already at the Bloodscar Border," Eugene said."There are things..."Lance started to say but stopped himself. "I won't say more, but stop investigating the Bloodmoon Pack. I know what's going on. Also, your Eugenius Scout Team shouldn't be too close to me. I invited you here today for personal reasons. In the future, if there's anything, maybe Paisley will pass on messages to you."Eugene was confused at first.The Eugenius Scout Team was saved by Lance. Why couldn't they be close to him now?But then he figured it out. Lycan Erasmus had just become Lycan King.His power wasn't secure yet. Naturally, he would be wary of Lance, his younger brother."Got it. I'll wait for the assignment," Eugene s
Third Person's POVEugene arrived soon after.He was a man of action and efficiency, never one to procrastinate.But he didn't expect that Lance had called him here to discuss his second mating.He had no intention of entering a second mating so soon, wanting to settle things first.He told them his honest intentions without reserve, aiming to make Gloria give up on him.Paisley spoke up, "As long as you're not mated, she won't truly give up."Eugene replied, "That's true. But she's already come to the Hutchinsons', and I've had the maids relay my stance. She should get the message and stop harassing me. So I can put my matters on hold for now.""By the way, she caused a scene at the Blackthorn Pack, thinking I was the one who spread the news," Adelaide said.Eugene froze. "Why would she think you did it?"Adelaide laid out the whole story.After listening, Eugene's brow never eased. After a long pause, he
Third Person's POVAfter Doug finished speaking, he stole a glance at Adelaide. Seeing she wasn't angry, he let out a breath he didn't know he'd been holding.He silently vowed to give himself a good scolding later.It was clear that Doug truly adored his granddaughter.Abigail seemed to be Doug's youngest granddaughter and undoubtedly the apple of his eye."Are you two in a hurry? Can we..." Lance wanted to leave."We're in a hurry. Abigail's already in tears," Doug said anxiously, rubbing his knees as if he could will them to move.He was desperate for them to approach Eugene immediately. "She's stubborn, but if the Hutchinson family can give her a convincing answer, she'll let it go. She won't cling endlessly."Mrs. Watson added, "Yes, she's been given the excuse of 'not wanting to hold her back,' but she thinks it's just an evasion. She wants a straightforward answer. Abigail's like that—she wants the truth."H
Third Person's POV"Okay," Adelaide agreed, though she usually went places with Paisley. She felt uneasy leaving her to handle Ramona and Dorothy alone, hoping Paisley wouldn't be upset.Before they could head out, Ralph announced, "Alpha Lance, Luna Adelaide, Mr. and Mrs. Watson are here.""Ah? Advisor Doug Watson from the royal court?" Lance was taken aback. "Did he mention what it's about?"Ralph shook his head. "No details, but they seemed worried. Maybe they're in trouble."Lance was puzzled. "Trouble? The Watson family has resources I don't even have as an Alpha."Anyway, with visitors at the door, their plans for the day were scrapped.Lance had been looking forward to visiting Yellowstone Mountain with Adelaide for days, but today was consumed by entertaining the Germain family and now the Watsons.His anticipation for a private outing with Adelaide was dashed.Noticing the disappointment in Lance's eyes, Adelaid
