Adide looked coldly at Madison’s angry face, her silver–gray wolf hair on her ears bristling slightly with disgust<b>. </b>
She caught the scent of sage pheromones from the omega–the nd inhibitor Madison used to control them.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw an omega rush to shield Madison, shouting, “Help! Somebody help!”
“No need to call the guards,” Adide said, her aura spreading. Lower–ranking wolves instinctively stepped back. “I’vee to return your ‘gift.”
Madison’s vertical pupils narrowed sharply, locking onto the silver wolf–head statue in Adide’s hand.
She actually kept it?
The usual response to such a gift would be anger and destruction.
Madison had assumed Adide’s earlier words were just talk, never expecting her to have kept the statue.
As the guard captain rushed in, Madison snapped, “Leave! Wait outside the door.”
This statue was known only to her inner circle. Its existence must be concealed–exnations couldeter, but it must not be seen.
Especially by the guards, whose loose lips could spread the secret far and wide after a few drinks.
The omega remained by Madison’s side.
Once the door closed, Madison’s gaze turned venomous. She attempted to exert her Lycan aura, but years of luxury had made her wolfzy.
Her efforts had no effect on Adide.
Madison snarled, “Do you think bing Lance’s mate will shield you? Your intrusion here is the height of disrespect, and I can make you pay.”
Adide met her stare with disdain. “Empty threats. If you can make me pay, I can do the same to you. I’ve met many viins in my life, but few as malicious and petty as you.”
“My father and brother sacrificed themselves for the kingdom and all werewolves. As a royal, you show no respect for their memory. Instead, you send cursed gifts and bully my mother and sister–inws, rubbing salt into their wounds<b>.” </b>
“You’re worse than an animal.”
Madison trembled with rage. “How dare you! You’re outrageous<b>!</b>”
The omega <b>cowered </b>behind Madison, only to be pushed away by her wed hand.
Madison’s wolf ws dug into the sofa armrest.
“I am outrageous. What are you going to do about it?”

Adide’s voice rang with a wolf’s sharpness. Her silver–gray wolf hair fanned out in anger, and her cedar pheromones swept through the room like an arctic storm.
She fixed her gaze on the decaying mark on Madison’s neck. “What gives you the right to be a princess? To demand the people’s respect? A monster like you will one day face the Moon Goddess’s judgment.”
“I didn’t juste to return this cursed object. I’m here to warn you–I’ll watch you like a cheetah stalking its prey. The moment you slip up, I’ll seize it. Every harm you’ve inflicted on my mother, I’ll return to you, blow for blow.”
She spread her hand, her ws elongating. With a fierce grip, the statue shattered.
Among the jade fragmentsy the base, inscribed with the words “Eternal Night Lone Wolf.”
Adide sneered, turned, and kicked open the door, striding out.
At the doorway, she turned back. “Remember my words. I’m ready for whatever you throw at me- underhanded tricks, venomous schemes. Cross me, and I’ll make you pay tenfold.”
She unleashed her Alpha aura. The lower–ranking guards dropped to one knee.
With that, she walked to the entrance, got into the car, and ordered, “Let’s go.”
Madison clutched her chest, her face twisted in fury. She stared at the fragments on the floor, the word “lonely” still visible among the debris.
She took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. “Prepare the carriage. I’m paying the pce a visit.”
Was there any need for underhanded tactics against Adide when a simpleint to Lycan Erasmus would suffice?
As his aunt, while she had no say in state affairs, she could certainly persuade him to discipline a mere Adide.
Madison trembled with indignation.
Only once in her life had she suffered such humiliation–when she’d been rejected by Alpha Bentley.
Now, after all these years, Adide had dared to challenge her at the birthday party, and now this.
If she didn’t teach Adide a lesson, she’d grow even more insolent.
In the pce study, Beta Fabian entered and announced, “Lycan Erasmus, Madison is here to see you.”
Lycan Erasmus looked up from his mountain of documents, set down his pen, and rubbed his brow. “What’s this about?”
Beta Fabian replied cautiously, “She didn’t specify, but she’s clearly furious.“Lycan Erasmus sneered. “My aunt has always been domineering. She acts condescending even during family gatherings at the pce. But she rarely seeks me out directly–after all, what problem can Madison not solve? Likely still sulking over the birthday party incident.”
Lycan sneered, “My aunt Eirasmus has always been strong–willed. Even during the New Year’s reunion at the pce, she always treats me like a senior. She rarelyes to me alone, after all, what can’t be solved by her Madison? Probably because of what happened at the birthday party.”
