Third Person’s POV
“Refusing to accept failure, blaming others, thinking luck’s always bad, feeling unbalanced and resentful.
Wanting to outdo someone, scheming to regain an upper hand and win others’ respect, Penelope said, shaking
her head slowly.
Her voice was calm, like a gentle breeze. “But why obsess over this? Even if you surpass that person, will they
suddenly becmiserable? Will your victory bring you joy? No. Their happiness doesn’t concern you, and yours
isn’t their business. You're not even a blip on their radar, yet they haunt your thoughts daily. Isn't that

Clenching her fists, she said, “Have you met someone extremely hypocritical? Someone who climbed the ranks
on others’ military merits? Or someone who exploited their father’s and brother's merits for gain, never
satisfied? Or someone who abandoned comrades to capture and torture, yet beca royal member? Does that
seem fair to you?”
Penelope smiled, wrinkles crinkling at the corners of her eyes, looking benevolent.
“Such people exist only in your imagination. How could | have met them?”
Velda’s face twisted in fury, even behind her light veil. “You don’t even believe me.”

will only backfire on you.”
Penelope waved her hand. “I'm tired. What you said the other day, I've forgotten. So have the Stormridge Pack
folks. Today, as you leave here, everyone's watching. They'll believe trouble from civilians will cease.”
Ulrik’s tense nerves finally eased.
He feared Velda’s insolence would anger Penelope, but she rose above it.

Her heart was brimming with resentment and hatred, leaving no room for advice.
Returning to the Bloodmoon/Pack, Velda silently entered the car. Her aura was like a biting north wind, cold and
distant.

Penelope's pupils shrank, her pheromones warm yet fleeting.
“While she fell from grace into the mire, her heart grew unbalanced, brimming with resentment.”
Penelope's voice tinged with regret, warmth in her pheromones turning cold.
“She thinks every she-wolf is better than her, except Adelaide. That's her mindset now.”
Penelope shook her head, the fire's glow dancing in her eyes, her pheromones gradually calming.
