    Third Person’s POV


    Princess Helia led her exhausted team out of the Protocol Hall and back to their quarters.


    The Northern officials, however, didn’t leave. They stayed behind, locked in a heated strategy session for the next round of talks. Cyrus joined the discussion, pointing out a critical red line.


    “We absolutely cannot agree to the third condition regarding food supplies. The Western Tribe suffered a brutal winterst year, and their army is starving. If we send them those rations, we are literally feeding the enemy so they can better attack our own soldiers on the battlefield!”


    He paused, adding firmly, “Furthermore, Lycan Erasmus has made it clear: there will be no retreat from our current border lines!”


    After speaking his piece, Cyrus left, feeling a sense of relief. Lance’s performance at the table today had given him the confidence that the North’s interests were in good hands.

    mp cells of the Royal Marshal’s office, Ulrik was pacing like a caged beast, desperate to speak with Lucas.


    Velda the night before, he hadn’t known a moment’s peace.


    night racking his brain, trying to figure out how a prisoner like Velda could possibly force the Western Tribe


    said that? But she didn’t say how?” Lucas’s brow furrowed as he listened to Ulrik’s report.


    shook his head, his eyes hollow with fatigue.


    No. No matter how much I pressed, she wouldn’t talk. But she’s already mapped out her escape and a route for me to hijack the prison carriage. She’s way too confident for someone who has no cards left to y.”


    Lucas didn’t know the exact progress of today’s negotiations yet, but he knew one thing for certain: as long as the highmand held firm, the Western Tribe would never get their hands on Alpha Zander.


    “It’s impossible,” Lucas scoffed, cutting through Ulrik’s paranoia.


    “If Lycan Erasmus agrees to extradite her, she’ll be in a high–security transport surrounded by our best guards. It doesn’t matter what she screams from inside that carriage; the Westerners aren’t just going to take her word for it.”


    Ulrik let out a long sigh.


    “I thought so too. It’s illogical. But she’s being far too calcted… Being locked in here, I can’t do a thing. I need you to get a message to Luna Christine. Ask her to look into the omegas within the Bloodmoon Pack.”


    “You suspect… that while Velda was under house arrest, she was bribing servants to smuggle intel out of the estate?”


    Ulrik rubbed his temples, his mind a tangled mess.


    “I don’t know. I can’t connect the dots. But I won’t sleep until I’m sure. If there really is a Western spy inside the Bleedmools, Christine needs to tell Adide immediately.”


    Lucas realized the gravity of the situation, but he was genuinely confused.


    “If we’re investigating the Bloodmoon Pack–your own pack–why go the long way around through Christine?”


    Christine was the mate of Alpha Tad from the Ironw Pack and a rtive of Ulrik’s mate, Gloria.


    It would have made much more sense for Ulrik to ask his own Luna to handle an internal investigation.


    Ulrik’s face flushed with embarrassment.

    He stammered for a moment before choking out, “Well… Luna Christine has managed the Irondes for years. She’s experienced. If there’s a mole in my pack, she’s the only one with the sharp enough eyes to dig them out.”


    Looking at Ulrik’s expression, Lucas quickly pieced together the subtext.


    Gloria likelycks the spine and the brains to manage a pack properly.


    Lucas nodded.


    “Fine, I’ll notify Gamma Adide first and let her handle the outreach to Luna Christine.”


    Ulrik bowed deeply behind the bars, a look of immense relief on his face.


    “This is urgent. Please, go now.”


    Lucas didn’t waste a second. He headed straight for the ckthorn estate and ryed Ulrik’s warning to Adide word–for–word..


    Hearing the news, Adide’s eyes narrowed into thin slits.


    She had also found Velda’s behavior after her arrest to be highly suspicious.


    Initially, Adide thought Velda was just framing Zander to save herself.


    But even after the “truth serum” and the harsh interrogation, Velda hadn’t wavered–she was hell–bent on delivering Zander to the


    Westerners.


    Suddenly, the puzzle pieces clicked for Adide.


    “I see…” Adide let out a coldugh. “She isn’t just framing him. She’s preparing a sacrifice to buy her own freedom.


    Without hesitation, Adide threw on her cloak and vanished into the night, heading straight for the tronde territory. She had to unearth the spy Velda had nted in the Bloodmoon Pack before the Western delegation made their next move.


    When Luna Christine heard the story, she didn’t ask a single unnecessary question.


    She gave a solemn promise, “This involves Alpha Zander’s life. I’ll start the investigation immediately.”


    Ever since Ulrik had been hauled off, Gloria had been a nervous wreck within the Bloodmoon Pack


    She had even run back to her parents‘ pack, begging the Irondes to plead for Utrk’s bife, but Christine had shut her down. without mercy.


    Christine knew this was a matter of international diplomacy–she had no right to interfere.

    However, Christine had used her connections to check on him, and she knew that while Urk was in custody, he wear theng tortured.


    When she shared this “good news” with Gloria, Gloria had only broken down in tears,ining about how velda had nined entire pack.
