Third Person’s POV
Madison laughed, leaning back in her chair with an air of careless laziness.
Her elbow rested on the armrest, her eyes seeming to flirt yet hide mockery.
She teased. “You look alike, but the feel is vastly different.”
She had once touched Alpha Bentley’s face and was slapped for it, met with his furious “Get out!”
His arrogance was maddening yet magnetic.

As the favored princess, she held immense power, while his family had no backing–just his military merits. Yet he dared to roar at her.
His unyielding pride fueled both her fury and an uncontrollable urge to conquer him.
I’ve seen your two sons,” Madison said lazily.
“Both take after you. I hear your mate’s pregnant again. Another son, perhaps? You’re quite the son–bearer, aren’t you? So many sons, all spitting images of you–it’s tempting.”
“You…”
Cassius shuddered with fear. “What do you want?”
Madison sneered, stood up, and turned to leave. “Lock him in the basement,” she ordered coldly.
Hearing this, Rosa hurried after her. “Princess Madison, have you changed your mind?”
“Irritating Madison muttered. “Just lock him up first.”
“Yes, Princess. Don’t upset yourself,” Rosa pleaded.
“No one compares to him. Even a double isn’t him. It doesn’t move me a bit. Instead, his face just angers me, Madison said, her eyes blazing with fury.
She returned to the room and sat down, still fuming “Bring water and soap. I’m washing my hands
The servants scrambled to obey. She washed her hands over and over again, scrubbing away the touch of Cassius,
Just like after every encounter with Hunt, she would take bath after bath in hot water, trying to wash off the vile stench that clung to her
After dismissing the servants, Rosa sighed at Madison’s agitated state. Princess, is your love for Alpha Bentley just about his looks? He’s dead. Even a double isn’t the one you loved Why torture yourself so?”
Madison used to deny loving Alpha Bentley whenever it was mentioned, even by Rosa.
But now, she didn’t bother.

If love and hate were her only connections to him, so be it.
“Fate,” she said, her voice brimming with sorrow and bitterness.

Yet her next words were merciless. “I don’t want to see another face like his. Disfigure him and kill his two sons and his pregnant wife.”
Rosa was horrified. “Princess, it’s the Moon Newborn Festival tomorrow. Let’s honor the dead and pray for
the souls…”
“Pray for them too,” Madison said coldly.
Seeing Rosa hesitate, she snapped, “What? You sympathize with them? Very well. I’ll grant your compassion.”
She called the wolf guard captain, Lacius.
“Lacius,” she ordered, “bring Cassius’s wife and sons here. Lock them in the basement. Disfigure Cassius before them, then kill them all. Let the family die together.”
Lacius took the order but glanced at Rosa.
She looked worried but said nothing.
The wolf guard captain had no choice but to comply and stepped back.
Seeing Madison still seething with anger, Rosa sighed. “I’ll bring you a drink.”
After Madison stormed out, Rosa caught up with Laciùs. “Wait.”
“Yes,” Lacius greeted.
“Princess Madison’s orders are fickle. If we really scar his face and she blames us later, what then? Finding another face so alike will be impossible,” Lacius said in a hushed voice.
“I know the past two years have been tough for you all with the ever–changing orders causing you much distress and punishment. For now, keep Cassius in the basement dungeon. As for his wife and sons, take them there as she commanded, but wait a couple of days before acting further. If she still insists, proceed then, Rosa replied.
Lacius fretted, “If I defy her now and she’s angry, you must protect us.”
I will. I’ll reason with her once she’s calmer,” Rosa assured him.
Relieved, Lacius said, “Thanks, Rosa. I trust you.”
“Go,” Rosa said with a smile
