CHAPTER TWENTY SEVEN
Rudolf’s POV
+25 Bonus
Nn had changed. Age looked good on him. He was taller, looking like the spitting image of his father now. It was like staring into the past. He had his father’s face but in a younger and taller build. The only thing that hadn’t changed about him was the fury in his eyes. It was the same as thest time I’d seen him.
“We should speak privately,” I said and motioned toward the guards.
The banquet hall cleared out quickly. Solon gave me a wary nce, but he obeyed with a short nod. It was only Nn and I now.
I sat back down and folded my hands in front of me. “It’s just the two of us now. You can be honest with me,” I said quietly. “If you’re in trouble, I’m willing to help.”
“You have misunderstood me, Alpha King,” Nn said, taking a bite out of steak on his te. “I’m not here asking for assistance.”
“If this is a personal matter, I can lend warriors to…
“I am not here to ask for a handout,” Nn interrupted. “I am here to find the rogue and take revenge. It is as simple as that.”
“Watch your tone, Alpha Nn. Are you asking or telling me what you want?” I asked, eyes narrowing.
Nn set down his fork deliberately, spine straightening as he locked eyes with me. A faint, sardonic sneer tugged at his lips, barely hidden beneath a polite facade.
“Alpha King,” he said smoothly, voice low but edged with challenge, “I care for every warrior in my pack. So I’m sure you won’t refuse my humble request to search for the rogue who killed one of my men. After all, I’m certain you understand the weight of responsibility.”
I stared at him in silence. Ever since the night of the incident, when I woke with my memories fractured and the news of his father’s death, I’d always suspected I’d failed Nn in some way. Nn never looked at me the same way after that.
Still, I couldn’t let guilt or old debtspromise my duty-not when the safety of my pack and territory hung in
the bnce.
“I’ll allow it,” I said finally. “But remember, this is mynd. You follow my rules-or you’ll face the consequences. I won’t tolerate you stirring trouble here.”
Nn nodded, a cold smile curling on his lips-one that didn’t reach his eyes. “Of course. I wouldn’t dare.”
Talia’s POV
As soon as the banquet hall doors closed behind us, I whispered, “Solon, You can’t lose control like that again.”
“I just hate the way he was talking. He acted politely but he didn’t respect father at all, you saw it too,” Solon huffed.
“Do you think he’s telling the truth about the rogue?” I asked.
“No, I think it’s just ame excuse he used to hide his bad intention, anyways, I won’t let him,” Solon responded.
‘Don’t worry. Here’s Silverfang, Nn wouldn’t hurt the Alpha King,’ my wolf reassured me.

I nodded and headed back to my residence.
Iy in bed staring at the ceiling trying to calm my mind but more and more questions kept popping up. Why was Alpha Nn here, really? Was he telling the truth about the report?
“Ugh!” I groaned, leaning up and throwing my pillow across the room. “I give up!”
I grabbed my phone and decided to g****e something about Alpha Nn, and suddenly my phone rang with a call.
Jason.
I stared at the name on the screen and groaned. I wanted to ignore it, but I knew he would just keep calling. I picked up and asked, “What do you want?”
“Didn’t think you’d still be alive,” Jason said, his voice smug. “With Alpha Nn on Silverfang territory, I am sure Prince Solon is too busy to worry about a weak little omega like you.”
“You know, for someone who imed to be done with me, you seem to enjoy checking in on me. What’s wrong with you? Is Viki not panning out to be the perfect Luna like you wanted?” I taunted him.
“You still have a smart mouth,” Jason retorted.
“Leaving you has done wonders for me,” I said.
There was a pause but then he chuckled. “Is that supposed to be funny? I don’t understand why you’re acting like this with me. We had so many good years together and you threw them away to be a ytoy for the Prince.”
I sighed. “Jason, I’m not going to have this conversation with you again. Get to the point or hang up.” 1
“You’re upset. Already trouble in paradise?” Jason mocked.
“Don’t test me, Jason,” I warned. “Tell me what you want or I’m hanging up.”
“I’m giving you a chance,” he said smoothly. “You don’t belong there. Come back to Shadoww. I’ll keep you safe. Once things go sideways, and they will, you’ll be the first one to die in the chaos. Nobody there is going to risk themselves for some discarded omega, especially not Prince Solon.”
Iughed, sharp and cold. “You know what? I’d rather die a discarded omega than waste another second on you. And Prince Solon? He’s a man you’ll nevere close to matching.”
“You bitch-”
I mmed the phone down before he could finish. Seeing his furious face in my mind gave me a small, satisfying thrill.
