Adelaide fell silent for a moment. Cedar pheromones slowly coalesced around her into a layer of ice-like

coldness.

Her vertical pupils flickered faintly beneath her irises.

A suppressed lupine growl rumbled in her throat as she spoke, “Beata, show our guests out.”

Luna Skye’s fury erupted instantly. The Silverlight Pack’s signature lilac pheromones, laced with anxious sulfur,

assailed the air. Her pupils shrank to fine lines.

“Adelaide, I'm not done talking! How dare you rush to usherout? I'm your aunt!”

In her rage, her wolf claws partially emerged, and with an Alpha’s aura, she slammed her palm-clenched around

a coffee cup-down onto the floor.

The sound of shattering bone china echoed through the room. Her chest heaved, and the wolf hairs at the back

of her neck bristled with agitation.

Adelaide glanced down at the shattered cup at her feet. As coffee seeped over her shoes, cedar pheromones

abruptly solidified into tangible pressure, chilling the very air.

She slowly raised her head. Her vertical pupils gleamed with silver-blue coldness in the sunlight, and her voice

carried the gravelly texture unique to wolves, “If you dare...”

She paused, her fingertips whitening from restraint, yet showing no signs of beastly transformation. The invisible

aura made Luna Skye’s breath hitched. “If you can display such fury in Soulrend Pack, if you can smash a cup in

their presence and call Dwight heartless to his face, Melinda would find solace in it, and | would still consider you

family. But did you not witness Melinda’s distress that night? You merely played mediator. When she sought to

dissolve her mating bond and asked for your acceptance back into the pack, a simple nod from you-not just

endless urgings to endure-would have offered her immense comfort. Perhaps her words about dissolving the

bond were born of momentary anguish, but have you considered how your refusal might break her heart, how it

might drive her to despair?”

“She cannot dissolve the mating bond!”

Luna Skye’s face flushed with urgency, her pheromones chaotic and her wolf ears trembling faintly.

Baring her fangs, she hissed, “Have | spoken in vain? If | accept her back into the pack while she’s pregnant, how

would that situation be resolved? Have you truly thought about her? She holds you in such high esteem; how

could you harm her like this?”

Luna Skye rose abruptly, her wolf claws extending half an inch before she forcibly retracted them.

Tears welled up as she swiped at them with a tissue, yet they kept falling.

Her voice, laced with a sob and the vibrato of a wolf's howl, pleaded, “What are the current hardships compared

to the bigger picture? As the lawful mate, does she have to fear a breeder from a nightclub? Even if she is Hunt's

daughter, raised in squalor, Dwight will eventually tire of her. In time, he will return to Melinda. Explain this to

her, and she won't insist on dissolving the bond. She's always heeded your

words; go speak to her, and she will listen.”

After speaking, she staggered back to her seat, her shoulders shaking with suppressed sobs as she dabbed at

her face with a tissue.

Her wolf tail swept restlessly under the skirt, spreading sorrowful violet pheromones into the air like rain-

dampened petals-a mix of vulnerability and helplessness.

Adelaide, seeing the resemblance between Luna Skye’s face and her own mother’s, felt a pang of discomfort at

the sight of her constant tears and runny nose.

Yet she couldn't help but raise her voice and ask, “What are you afraid of? What exactly are you fearing?”

“Fearing?”

Luna Skye, her voice muffled as she covered her face with her hands, spoke through a nasal tone. “We fear being

expelled from the capital and banished to that barren land! You know full well where our territory lies-it’s a place

of extrcold and poverty. How could we endure such hardship?”

Adelaide shook her head, her tone icy. “You fear the hardships of your territory, so you choose to suffer

humiliation in the capital, enduring others’ disdain and living in degradation, even casting away the royal

family’s dignity.”

“Impossible!”

Adelaide walked to the door, made a dismissive gesture, and said firmly, “They are not subordinates. Before

Melinda gives birth, I will not allow them to leave. Luna Skye, you're not welcomed to be here at the Blackthorn

Pack, Please leave.”

Luna Skye’s eyes widened. “Adelaide, you would even driveaway? I've always cared for you. How can you

treatlike this now?”

Without lifting her eyelids, Adelaide repeated, “Beata, show our guests out.”

With that, she turned and left.
