Chapter 142Lyra's POV The servants began carrying the food into the courtyard, and I watched as they arranged the dishes across the tables. The guests had waited longer than expected, but I had made sure everything was ready before allowing the food to be served.I stepped forward and addressed the gathering with a polite smile. “I apologise for the delay. I wanted to ensure we served our guests something worthy of the occasion, and preparing the finest dishes took longer than I anticipated.” She continued.“I hope you enjoy what we've prepared for you.” she bowed her head slightly.Selene, who had been watching me with an expression I couldn't quite read, let out a short laugh. “The finest dishes? I sincerely hope they taste as good as you claim. There's no need to pretend you've done something extraordinary when we haven't even tasted the food.” She glared at me. “You sound very certain that the food won't be good, Selene.” I turned towards her, keeping my expression composed.

Chapter 144Lyra’s POVThe gathering ended on a high note, with guests offering compliments about the food, the hospitality, and the organisation of the entire event. Several visiting Alphas congratulated Theron on hosting such a successful gathering, while others sought me out to praise my work.I accepted their compliments graciously, relieved that the evening had turned out better than I had dared to hope. After everything that had happened behind the scenes, seeing the guests leave satisfied made every exhausting moment worthwhile.I didn't notice Ryker, Renn and Liora leave, but Alpha Kael caught my attention as he waved at me from afar.I bowed my head slightly and walked up to him as he moved closer as well. “You have done exceptionally well, Lyra. I knew you were capable, but tonight has exceeded my expectations.” His gaze held a quiet admiration.“You would make a beautiful and capable Luna. Any Alpha would be fortunate to have you beside him.” He added, and I looked up at

Chapter 146Theron’s POVI was still in my office when Coren returned with an update on the investigation. The gathering may have ended successfully, but I had not forgotten how close things had come to turning into a disaster. Someone had tampered with our food supplies and poisoned the water intended for our guests. If Lyra had not noticed the problems in time, the consequences could have been devastating. She suspects Selene was behind all of these but a part of me still wants to give her benefit of the doubt. She won't be crazy enough to do something that crazy.“We have made some progress, Alpha Theron.” Coren said closed the door behind him as he approached my desk. “Tell me what you found.” I put down the report I had been reading. “We tracked down the two temporary maids who joined the household shortly before the gathering.” He nodded. “They were the same women Lyra mentioned, the ones she had sent away from the kitchen after becoming suspicious of them.” He reported.

Chapter 148Selene's POV I stood still with my fist clenched around my gown. I had no idea how to answer that question, but there's no way I'm telling the truth. I would have to keep up with this act to the end, no matter what."No. I had nothing to do with the food. I was upset about the way you treated Lyra, but I would never deliberately ruin the gathering you worked so hard to organise." I shook my head immediately. He held my gaze for a long moment. I kept my expression earnest, careful not to overplay my innocence.“I know I have wrong Lyra, and I'm willing to apologise to her if that's what it would take for you to see how sincere I am and truly forgive me.” The words tasted bitter, but I continued before he could question me further."I don't expect you to forget what happened. I only hope you will give me the chance to prove that I can do better. I have spent years serving this pack, and I don't want one terrible mistake to erase everything I've done." I pleaded.The door o

Chapter 150Theron’s POVThe following morning, I attended the council meeting with little patience for the arguments I knew would come. News of Selene's accusation against Lyra had spread through the estate, and several council members had already requested an explanation. They wanted to know what had happened at the gathering, whether the water had truly been poisoned, and what I intended to do about the situation.I took my seat at the head of the table while Coren stood beside me. The council members settled into their seats, exchanging whispers until Elder Rowan finally spoke."Alpha Theron, I believe we should begin by addressing the unfortunate incident at the gathering.”“Several visiting Alphas witnessed Selene accusing Lyra of poisoning the water. Regardless of what the investigation eventually reveals, the situation has already raised questions about the management of your household.""I am aware of that, Elder Rowan. That is why I have ordered an investigation into the m
