Semua Bab A Female Alpha’s Revenge: Bab 831 - Bab 840

Third Person's POVAdelaide gently pressed Paisley down by her shoulders, guiding her into a chair.She turned to order Beata to bring some warm mulled mead and roasted nuts from the kitchen, and then smiled."Listen, you do whatever you want. That is hardly a major crisis. Even if it turns into one, Lance and I have more than enough clout to handle it.""Easy for you to say, but I really lost my head today." Paisley ran a frustrated hand through her hair.She'd honestly thought her wolf was getting less volatile, but she'd still gone and flipped out.Adelaide comforted her gently."The Independent Center is our baby, and someone actually had the nerve to drag its name through the dirt. Listen, if you'd told me yesterday that Sadi was the one pulling the strings, I swear I'd have gone with you to beat her up!""Come on, you've never been as reckless as me." Paisley looked up, staring deep into her eyes."Stop trying to make me feel better. Tell me the truth: is what I did today going t

Third Person's POVLycan Erasmus leaned back against his chair, tilting his head toward Fabian."Tell me, have I lost my mind? I actually gave him the green light to go sniff around Germain."Fabian offered a flawless smile, keeping his voice low."Your Great Majesty, I believe this simply comes from a place of brotherly trust.""Trust?"Lycan Erasmus repeated the word under his breath, a cryptic gleam flashing in his sharp eyes.Fabian sensibly shut his mouth, not uttering another word.He knew better than anyone that this paranoid Lycan King could never fully trust Lance.No ruler sitting on a throne anywhere in the world would ever truly trust an Alpha who possessed both unmatched combat lethality and overwhelming devotion from the military.For now, if this shred of "trust" was enough to quiet the Lycan King's days of crushing anxiety, it was plenty.Meanwhile, inside the Blue Abyss territory, the manor

Third Person's POV"That is complete BS!"Germain quickly snapped out of his lapse, forcing himself to cool down."Let's go. You're right. Since Alpha Lance is here, we should give him a warm welcome."Germain's pivot was so fast that Raven still didn't feel good about it.He kept pushing, "Once you take the crown, you can have any she-wolf in the country. When that day comes, you'll see that Paisley is nothing but a foul-tempered, unrefined brute.""Enough."Germain suddenly sounded defensive, almost hurt."Damn it! All these years, I've basically lived like a monk for the sake of our grand ideal! Other than my idiot mate, I've barely kept a few breeders around! But Paisley is different. My wolf wants her; he's begging for her comfort! She's the first she-wolf who's driven my wolf wild, and she's actually strong enough to help me! She is the perfect replacement for Sadi!"His explosive rant left Raven feeling a deep sense of dread and sheer fury.He had no choice but to lay out the br

Third Person's POVBack in the grand hall, Raven remained tucked in the shadows, his eyes locked onto Lance.Lance was keeping up the casual banter with Germain, but his expression was far from relaxed. He kept glancing toward the doorway where Adelaide had left, which only made Raven more convinced that the blowout between the couple was real and not just a performance.Now that the room was cleared of any unwanted distractions, it was the perfect layout to start pulling Lance to their side."So, Lance," Germain said, lifting his glass with a casual shrug. "How has your mother been holding up lately?"Lance leaned back against his chair."She's doing great. I heard Luna Pandora has been incredibly sick. Is she doing any better?""The Moon Goddess has been kind—she's finally turning a corner," Germain said, setting his cup down with a theatrical sigh of relief.Lance had been waiting for exactly that opening."Good to hear. So, when do you plan on packing up and leaving the capital?"G

Third Person's POVWithout giving anyone a chance to cut in, Avery kept talking, his words flying faster and faster."Listen to me, a lot of times, these arrogant Alphas are totally delusional. They honestly think we can't see right through their filthy intentions. Did you see the way he was looking at Paisley? I wanted to slice him in half right then and there."Paisley shuddered, letting out a sharp gasp."Exactly! I felt like that was his true colors coming out, too! He just used to hide it incredibly well!"Avery kept going, full of confidence in his breakdown."Right! Trust me on this! Irene always said that no matter how much power a male wolf has, the second he meets a female who actually triggers his desire, he won't be able to control his wolf's madness. Luna Adelaide, you need to remember Irene's words too. If Alpha Lance ever falls for another she-wolf, you'll be able to spot it instantly!"Lance had been listening to Avery's logic and using it to seriously re-evaluate the d
