Semua Bab A Female Alpha’s Revenge: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Adelaide's POVWhen Alpha Lance found me, I was sharpening my silver claws with the new recruits.His frost-kissed ears bristled with anger, and his voice had that gravelly growl unique to werewolves, "Pack up. I'm sending you back to the capital before dawn." I gripped the rust-stained whetstone, my bandaged knuckles straining from my wolf transformation. I said, "The Frostfang Pack doesn't have cowards. Unless you cut off my claws." He stared at my bleeding palm for what felt like ten heartbeats, then growled hoarsely, "Don't die too quickly," and strode away, his mud-splattered cloak flapping behind him.My wolf nudged me and said, "His scent is intoxicating."I ignored it. Angela peeked out from behind a barracks post, her rose-gold earrings catching the firelight."Does this wolf general always behave like a savage?" she asked.Paisley scuffed a frozen blood clod with her boot. The sulfur pheromones of the Western Tribal wolves mixed with her sigh. "After three years here, who is

Adelaide's POVAngela's once delicate face was smeared with blood, silver-blue coagulated blood resembling ice shards embedded in her skin.She grimaced at the copper mirror. "I get your mom's logic, but Ulrik's a frozen ingrate."Halbert yanked off a bloodied bandage to rewrap his arm wound, his wolf tail restlessly slapping the bed's edge. "If it were me, I'd have led the Frostfang guards to raid the Bloodmoon Pack! You even punched a grizzly in camp. Why go soft on that jerk?"I leaned back on a pile of furs, my eyes shut. The mate-bond scar on my neck throbbed."The capital's not Shadow Peaks. I'm already labeled a 'rejected she-wolf.' If I scratch Ulrik, the whole Frostfang Pack'll be called 'savage brutes'—royals love such excuses to sneer.""Why drag the pack into this?" Halbert asked, puzzled.Paisley pulled a honey-sealed wine bag from a carved leather case. The crimson flame pack's sulfur-wine scent wafted out. "It'll

Third Person's POVAdelaide gasped, a shiver running down her spine as pain prickled her neck.She fought the urge to reveal her wolf ears, but her nails dug half-moon trenches into her palms."Alpha Lance, it hurts," she said, her voice deeper than usual, a barely noticeable tremor betraying her discomfort—not from his rough touch, but from the "mates" talk.As the Frostfang Pack heir, she'd been taught, "Vulnerability only shows when wounds scab.""Haha!"Alpha Lance's laughter shook the tent. "So delicate! Wait till you taste a bear's warhammer on your shoulder—that's real pain!"His slap on her shoulder was rough yet familiar.Adelaide wasn't one could not endure hardships, but the cold had left her skin raw and sensitive.Lance's calloused fingers felt like needles.After his jest, Lance said, "We'll capture Frostbite Town before reinforcements arrive, then face them in the final battle. Adelaide, I expect gr

Third Person's POVIn the military camp outside Tower City, Alpha Lance pressed his hands against the tactical table.His towering figure radiated a cold cedar pheromone, his wolf pupils gleaming like molten fire under the bonfire light."We launch the general offensive at dawn," he said. "Capture Frostbite Town, and we secure the Western Tribes' supplies—food, meat, cotton clothes, bedding, and more. Their wolf warriors arrived at the southern border loaded with provisions."At the mention of "meat," the werewolves' ears perked up.They'd long subsisted on crackers, their eyes now glowing with hunger.Alpha Lance pointed to Frostbite Town's west side on the map, motioning Adelaide forward."After the city falls, lead three thousand wolves straight here. The supplies are stockpiled there.""The Dragon Ash Kingdom and Western Tribes have many wounded. Once the city breaks, they'll prioritize evacuating them over food," he

Third Person's POVDragon Ash's soldiers had seized many civilian homes. When the Western Tribes' army arrived, lacking accommodation, they'd driven residents from their houses.Alpha Lance now decreed that all civilians could return home.Werewolf warriors without shelter were to camp on open ground.After this battle, Adelaide's fame soared.Adelaide had distinguished herself in previous battles, but her latest feat—holding the supply depot with three thousand men and ensuring everyone ate meat—eclipsed her prior achievements in the soldiers' eyes.The successful expulsion of the enemy from Frostbite Town was largely due to Alpha Lance capturing Victor from the Dragon Ash Wolf Kingdom.Lance's informant in Frostbite Town had uncovered the tension between Victor and Solanke, which Lance exploited to capture Victor.The Western Tribes sought Victor's execution, while the Dragon Ash Kingdom opted to retreat.T
