A Female Alpha’s Revenge의 모든 챕터: 챕터 11 - 챕터 20

Adelaide's POVAfter talking with Beata, she prepared afternoon tea for me.The glass container held homemade vanilla ice cream, its sweet scent mingled with fresh blueberries Beata had just picked.Our shadows on the basalt countertop were shattered by the loud crash of iron armor."Adelaide!" Ulrik's howl made the starlight chandelier above tremble. "How long do you plan to keep up this farce?""Beata," I said, watching the melting ice cream—a three-hour labor of love from Beata—slip down the counter, "clean up the glass. Ulrik and I need to talk."Once Beata's footsteps faded upstairs, I looked up at the Alpha, his hackles raised. "Want to discuss Shaman Digby?"Ulrik's slit pupils burned crimson. "How dare you?"I smirked, unleashing my wolf's aura."Why shouldn't I? Maybe the Tenar family should ask why the most reputable shaman, Digby, refused to treat Luna Rosemary. His contract clearly states—If the employer dishonors the healer, the contract may be voided.""Stop playing inno

Adelaide's POVAfter handing over pack management, I secluded myself.I only interacted with the Omegas and guards from Frostfang, even dining in my private kitchen.Meals were prepared by Omegas Ivy and Jessica.Recalling how I'd disbanded the Frostfang guards and Omegas I'd recruited, I knew Bloodmoon was in chaos.Tamara had to temporarily promote low-ranking wolves to fill patrol gaps.With the bonding ceremony approaching, guard shortages worsened.The recruits I'd trained were long gone, and the remaining Omegas struggled to support the Tenar family.Word reached me that when Tamara reported to Rosemary, the old matriarch raged, demanding I fund the crisis.Vanya approached me next, but left without requesting more funds.Omega Jessica informed me Bloodmoon was selling assets."Expected their last resort," I said.Jessica fumed, "When the pack was broke before, you used Frostfang assets. Why not sell shops now?""Not the same," I smiled. "Luna Rosemary's waiting for Velda and Al

Third Person's POV"I've already decided to reject her tonight, but rest assured, I won't take her wealth. I'm not bullying her—she's gone too far," Ulrik said, stroking the silver wolf-head pendant at his throat, a symbol of his Alpha status.Velda's fingertips traced the oak table, leaving faint claw marks in the moonlight."This isn't about disrespect—it's outright elder endangerment!""So you agree with rejecting her?" Ulrik pressed.Velda's pearl earrings gleamed in the night air.She weighed the consequences.Rejecting Adelaide posed risks to their future.But whenever she pictured Adelaide's striking face, a nameless agitation stirred within her.With that beauty and Frostfang's Alpha bloodline, there was no guarantee Ulrik wouldn't revert to old feelings.After all, their mate bond was still very much intact.If Ulrik exiled Adelaide and severed the mate bond, Velda would be Bloodmoon's sole Luna, Ulrik's only mate.She'd always seen Adelaide as a tough opponent. Better to eli

Adelaide's POVMy voice was soft, but my pheromones carried the chill of silverfir—like ice blades slicing through the air.Ulrik froze, his suppressed whine choked off by my aura as I brushed past him.Halsey immediately asked, "Adelaide, stand firm. I'll fight for your justice."My eyes welled up as I bowed before her. "I've brought shame to the family—I failed.""Rise!" Her tail lashed like a whip, silver fur revealing old battle scars. "Even Frostfang's last pup deserves respect—not exile for keeping vows Blood Moon broke."Her pheromones surged, rotting lilacs flooding the room. "Since you joined Bloodmoon, has any Tenar wolf cursed or harmed you?"I shook my head slowly. "No."Rosemary's fury boiled over. "Then why attack me? Jealous of Velda? It's Lycan Erasmus's decree! Your jealousy's a sin—what more do you want?"Halsey cut her off. "The whole city knows she nursed you day and night!"Rosemary sneered. "I thought her 'devotion' was sweet—until she cut off Digby. That's attem

Adelaide's POVI knelt on one knee, my spine finally relaxing.The decree from Lycan Erasmus arrived late, but it arrived."Thanks, Lycan Erasmus, for his mercy!" As my words fell, the coolness of the ground beneath my palm, mixed with the scent of withered leaves from the courtyard, was oddly reassuring compared to Bloodmoon's laurel fragrance.Ulrik stood rigid in my peripheral vision, his face ashen.He opened his mouth but no sound emerged—I knew he was shocked, confused, perhaps even recalling all my patience and concessions over the past year.But those speculations no longer concerned me. My gaze was fixed on the parchment in Fabian's hand, the gilded wolf-head crest gleaming warmly in the autumn sun.Rosemary suddenly clutched my sleeve, her nails digging painfully into the fabric."Adelaide, it was all a misunderstanding!" Her voice carried unprecedented urgency. "I thought you were trying to stop Ulrik and Velda, so I—"I gently withdrew my arm, putting half a step between u
