Chapter 93
Third Person’s POV
Vanya found the whole farce at the Bloodmoon Pack hilarious.

In her view, the Bloodmoon Pack’s current status was nowhere near worthy of attracting the Royal Council elders‘ mates.
Even if Ulrik and Velda had contributed to the war efforts, there were many others who had done the same, and it was unlikely that they would be prioritized for recognition.
However, if the rumors were true and the female Gamma who had consecutively captured two cities had indeed performed a great deed, then it was clear that these ladies‘ dismissive attitudes towards Velda indicated that the achievement had nothing to do with her.
By midnight, Rosemary was suffering from severe chest pain and hastily sent for a physician.
Witch Shaman Digby, although still selling her medicines, refused to visit the pack for treatment, forcing her to seek alternative healers–the Bloodmoon Pack could no longer afford a dedicated pack physician.
Tamara, barely keeping her eyes open, attended to Rosemary until the early hours of the morning.
Exhausted, she instructed the pack’s Omegas to continue caring for Rosemary before retreating to rest.
The next morning, upon not finding Tamara, Rosemary flew into a rage.
Her wolf eyes flaring with menace, she immediately dispatched someone to summon Tamara.
The Omega in charge of Rosemary’s care, terrified, explained that Tamara was unwell and had returned to
rest.
As the commotion escalated, Vanya entered the scene.
Seeing Rosemary trembling with fury, Vanya drawled, “What’s the point of throwing such a tantrum? If your illness worsens, it’s not as if someone else can feel the pain for you. Back when Adelaide was here, even the slightest uncomfortable would have Shaman Digby rushing to your side. You took her kindness for granted and instead doted on that scheming Velda. Now you’re reaping what you’ve sown.”
These words struck Rosemary like a barb. Her face drained of color, and her wolf fur bristled with anger.
Memories of Adelaide’s devoted care contrasted sharply with Velda’s hollow flattery and absence in critical moments, warring within her mind.
Yet, since Vanya was the former Luna, Rosemary sneered, “You’re so fond of Adelaide. I hear your son still lacks a mate. Perhaps he should join the Frostfang Pack.”
“I know my son isn’t worthy of Adelaide. As the Frostfang Pack’s Alpha, she can nominate a member to the Royal Council. Her future mate will undoubtedly be exceptional–far superior to Ulrik,” Vanya retorted.
Enraged, Rosemary attempted to exert her dominance, but her enfeebled wolf spirit failed to respond.

“You!” she stammered, her chest heaving and fingers trembling with fury. “You’re here just to aggravate me!”
Vanya shook off the grass–stained dust from her cloak, sneered, and said, “Bitter medicine is good for the illness. Take it or leave it.”
With that, she stepped over the scattered tea cup shards and left with an air of indifference.
Initially, the werewolves in the capital believed the female Gamma in question was Velda.
However, Rosemary’s antics at the Bloodmoon Pack’s gathering raised suspicions.
As gossip swirled, a new revelation emerged–Ulrik’s ex–mate, the former Bloodmoon Luna had also ventured to the southern border.

Curiosity piqued, people delved into Adelaide’s past.
They discovered she had been sent to the notorious Warscar Training Camp in the Shadow Peaks at the age of seven or eight, where she had honed her combat skills through blood and fire. No wonder she had carved a path of glory on the battlefield.
Rumors spread that her mate had been stolen by Velda.
Some claimed that if Adelaide were truly formidable, she would have long since charged into battle alone –both to avenge her father and to prove her superiority over Velda.
These claims quickly gained traction and reached the Bloodmoon Pack.
Rosemary, upon hearing this, sneered in disbelief, “Adelaide, capable of battlefield achievements? If she had such prowess, she’d have bolted into battle like a lone wolf instead of sticking around as our Luna, tending to me day in and day out.”
This statement circulated swiftly.
Some, without a second thought, took it at face value, spreading the tale that Adelaide had been inseparable from Luna Rosemary, even sleeping outside her quarters.
Yet discerning individuals interpreted this differently–wasn’t this a testament to her loyalty and sense of duty?
Previously, when Velda and Ulrik had returned from the Bloodscar Border triumph, their union, forged through shared merits, had been celebrated as a fine romance.
But with the recovery of the southern border, the joy from the Bloodscar Border victory paled in comparison, as the southern border’s reclamation was of utmost concern.
Without the luster of martial achievements, Ulrik was cast as a heartless mate deserter, and Velda as the ruthless home–wrecker.
What was there left to praise about such a pair?

The rumors outside grew wilder and more varied with each passing day.

Regardless of the chaos, the Bloodmoon Pack remained convinced of Velda and Ulrik’s contributions to the war effort.
This belief held firm until the following month when Lycan Erasmus announced the list of those who had distinguished themselves in the campaign.
Three female Gammas were recognized for their contributions, with Adelaide topping the list for her crucial role in capturing two cities.
The other two were Paisley and Angela.
While Ulrik’s name appeared on the list of meritorious generals, it was relegated to the very end, with most of the top names being former subordinates of Alpha Bentley.
Shocking to many, Velda’s name was conspicuously absent from the list.
