Third Person’s POV
Sabrina snorted coldly, her face darkening. “What kind of Luna? She’s just a she–wolf who’s lost <b>her </b>mate Even if she’s from the Ironthorn Pack, so what? When I’m with Alpha Lance and be his breeder, <b>she’ll </b>have to bow to me.”
Ulrik was stunned. “What are you saying? Be Lance’s breeder? Are you mad? Lance is bonding <b>with </b>Adide. When has he ever wanted a breeder?”
Sabrina replied proudly, “If Prisci agrees, I can be Alpha Lance’s breeder. Wanda <b>said </b>Prisci <b>is </b>afraid of Madison and does whatever Madison says. If I get Madison to like me, she’ll rmend me <b>to </b>Prisci.”
Ulrik snapped, “You’re crazy! Why would Madison like you? And how can you be Lance’s breeder<b>? </b>People like them will just use you. Don’t be fooled.”
But Sabrina was stubborn. “I don’t care. I’m going to be his breeder. Even if <b>I </b>get used, <b>it’s </b>okay as long as Wanda helps me.”
“You stop this nonsense. Do you know what Wanda is like?” Ulrik red <i>at </i>his usually willful <b>sister</b>. “And Lance is not someone to trifle with. If he doesn’t like you, you’ll only get hurt.”
“How could he not like me? He just doesn’t know me yet. Once we spend time together, he will. Besides, if Lwin Prisci’s favor, she’ll protect me. Who would dare to bully me then? Adide? A defiled she<b>–</b>wolf? Bah!”
She spat, filled with both hatred and jealousy for Adide.
Ulrik’s hand flew up, and he pped her across the face. His face was livid. “Who did you call a defiled she- wolf? Say it again!”
The p stunned Sabrina.
She covered her cheek, stood there for a moment, and then burst into tears. “You hit me? For that woman Adide? I’ll tell Mother!”
With that, she ran off, covering her face.
Ulrik punched the study door, his
Contorted with pain–Adide, defiled?
The irony was that she had never been marked by him.
How tragic that he realized his feelings only after losing her.
Had hepleted the mark before going to war, perhaps he wouldn’t have been <b>so </b>easily swayed by Velda’s pheromones.
Maybe their mating bond wouldn’t have been so easily severed.
Before long, Rosmary summoned him.

Before he could speak, Rosmary said, “I think it’s wonderful that Sabrina has these ambitions, and I fully support her. If Madison rmends her to Prisci, and she can enter the ckthorn <b>Pack</b><b>, </b><b>Alpha </b>Lance would be the perfect mate. I’ll support her all the way.”
Sabrina, having stopped crying, looked at him provocatively.
Ulrik shook his head. “It’s impossible. Alpha Lance won’t be interested in her.”
Rosmary had clearly given this a lot of thought. “Don’t underestimate our own. If Alpha Lance can <b>mate </b>with a woman who’s dissolved a mating bond, why can’t he be interested in our Bloodmoon Pack’s <b>own </b>daughter? Your sister was raised by me. Besides being a bit spoiled at home, everyone <b>says </b>she’s generous and proper in public. Moreover, if she wins Prisci’s favor, Alpha Lance will listen to her.”
Seeing the almost fanatical look on their faces, Ulrik stopped arguing.
At most, Sabrina would be deceived by Wanda once<b>, </b>learn her <b>lesson</b><b>, </b>and wise up.
He was far too busy to deal with such trivial matters.
A few dayster, Prisci moved into Lance’s ckthorn Pack with Zelda.
She brought all the omegas and wolf guards from the pce, turning the once–quiet pack into a bustling, even noisy, ce.
The first thing Prisci did after settling in was send out numerous invitations for a winter snow–viewing party.
She’d always loved to show off. Now living with Lance in the ckthorn Pack, she couldn’t miss this chance to disy her new status.
What was the point of living in the pce?
Though she was once the Lycan King’s New Moon Priestess, her status was overshadowed by her sister rissa and the Full Moon Priestess.
But now, with a powerful son, she was determined to show everyone how fortunate she was.
Inviting Lunas from other packs, as well as royal officials and their families, served her purposes<b>. </b>She wasn’t just breaking free from royal constraints but also intent on enjoying life–her way of enjoying life -being endless showing off.
She also nned to embarrass Adide by inviting everyone except her.
She specifically exined to Lance why Adide shouldn’t be invited. “Your mating approaching. As the future Luna, it’s inappropriate for her to attend as a guest.”
Lance agreed.
