Adide found rissa’s actions puzzling.
rissa’s delivery of floral tributes and holy water lent support to Madison, drawing many to Madison’s event.
rissa’s sudden benevolence was likely orchestrated by Lycan Erasmus, especially since Sophia’s interrogation would inevitably implicate Madison.
Hence, Erasmus’s heightened interest in the religious ceremony.
But what was the purpose of such attention?
It would only attract a crowd.

After discussion, Adide asked Caldwell, “?s Lycan Erasmus luring individuals with close ties to Madison’s mansion? After all, Madison wouldn’t invite them without a strong connection.”
Caldwell frowned. “I’m concerned Lycan Erasmus might know of tonight’s nned events at Madison’s mansion, which is why he’s sending so many. While your suggestion is usible, I believe his primary aim is to uncover Madison’s
secrets.”
“Could he know about our ns?” Paisley asked, surprised.
“It’s uncertain,” Caldwell said.
He continued, “Lycan Erasmus is not only suspicious but also enigmatic. We’ve conducted multiple screenings, but if he has deep–cover agents, they’d be hard to detect.”
Adide added, “Even if there are, it’s not strange. At least when we discussed this, no one else was present–only the four of us are privy to it.”
Craig interjected, “Intuition. I’ve spoken with Lycan Erasmus before; he’s exceptionally intelligent and perceptive.”

“Intuition?” someone questioned.
“Yes, a ruler’s intuition,” Craig exined, fanning himself.

“Don’t dismiss it. Rulers often possess unique perceptiveness, even if it’s based on fragmented information.”
Caldwell said, “You should also know that recently, the capital’s citizens have been moring for a memorial hall for Lance. Although we’ve had people praise Lycan Erasmus alongside LAlpha ance, Lycan Erasmus is likely still displeased.”
Adide nodded. “Combined with Sophia’s situation, the disappearance of Cassius’s family, and tonight’s ritual at Madison’s mansion, Lycan Erasmus might sense these events are interconnected. He could believe public unrest is manipted, implying someone is plotting.”
“Exactly,” Caldwell said. “If this is the case, it’s advantageous. Even if Lycan Erasmus knows we’re behind tonight’s events, it confirms that Alpha Lance dislikes public adtion and opposes the memorial. Moreover, it exposes Madison’s secrets, reminding Lycan Erasmus that the real concern isn’t the ckthorn Pack but others.”
Craig added, “Since your mating, the ckthorn Pack hasn’t schemed or allied with powerful packs. Lycan Erasmus’s suspicion of you should ease.”
Paisley turned to Adide, “They’re right. Men often understand other men better.”
Around nine in the evening, the infiltrators set out.
d in ck skin–tight clothes, they exuded a rust–like pheromone tinged with bloodlust, slipping into Madison’s mansion like nocturnal bats.
Their wolf ws flickered at their fingertips, cold and predatory.
Inside the main courtyard of Madison’s mansion, the religious ceremony proceeded with sandalwood and amber pheromones filling the air.
A sudden scream, sharp as a de through silk, silenced the prayers.
“Intruders!” The scream,ced with terror, pierced the night, striking fear into Madison’s heart.

Though she didn’t see the intruders, her instincts pinpointed their location—they had breached the middle and rear courtyards.
Her wolf ears pricked up, pupils contracting into slits.
As she moved to act, Abigail grabbed her. “Princess Madison, it’s dangerous out there.”
“Let go of me,” Madison snapped, turning sharply.
Her ebony pheromones erupted with intimidating force. Her expression hardened, wolf ws emerging with a glint that startled everyone present.
Their pheromones erupted in chaos, like leaves tossed by a gale.
Panic ensued among the guests, while the priests and a fewdies remainedposed.
Priest Abram spoke gravely, his voice brooking no argument, “The wolf guards and warriors will handle the intruders. Madison, don’t endanger yourself. Resume the prayer.”
