Menu A voice drifted from behind me, moving toward the staircase. I turned my head and saw Alpha Hunter, the lead Alpha of the Steel Valley Pack.

A deep frown settled on my face as I watched him extend his hand to Selene, who was descending the steps. Without hesitation, she placed her hand in his.

“Alpha Hunter, how have you been?” Selene greeted him.

She never spoke to me that politely. Why was she so cold toward me but so warm with everyone else?

“Because you treated her poorly when she was with you,” my wolf muttered inside me.

I ignored him, keeping my gaze fixed on Selene as she exchanged nods and glances with the others. Admiration filled their eyes as they looked at her. I was taken aback when I saw Finn step forward to shake her hand as well.

Glancing around, I realized everyone else had already made their way to the meeting hall. I was the only one left, standing there, watching her.

“We don’t mean any harm. Kane wants this alliance because he genuinely wants to help,” Finn told her.

Selene arched a brow. “Help? We don’t need any help.”

I scoffed. She had grown so arrogant. Where was this attitude when she was my wife? Back then, shet had been a fragile woman, always crying over everything–a complete crybaby.

I was convinced her newfound confidence came from her royal lineage. When someone gains power overnight, they tend to get overconfident.

“Selene, can I ask you a favor?” Finn inquired.

I narrowed my eyes at him. What favor could he possibly need from her? He was my beta–he didn’t need anything from her.

“Yes?” Selene asked, her gaze shifting past Finn to meet mine.

The moment our eyes locked, my thoughts scattered. Her sharp stare pierced through me, making me feel like the hunter had become the hunted.

I quickly looked away, shoved my hands into my pockets, and started walking toward the meeting hall.

“Tell y your brother to set aside personal history and consider the alliance,” Finn murmured to her.

His words made me pause mid–step. I turned my head slightly, waiting for her response.

Selene shook her head, her voice calm but firm. “My brother isn’t the type to let personal grudges dictate his decisions. He’s a professional. He thinks about what’s best for the pack, unlike your Alpha, who lets personal feelings interfere.”

Finn looked stunned, and anger flared inside me. Why had he even brought this up? Instead of gaining anything, he had only given her an opportunity to insult me.

“She’s not the head Alpha of this pack. Stop wasting time talking to her. Let’s go,” I said sharply. stepping forward toward where the others had gone.

17.22 Get 5 Menu Finn followed without another word. I didn’t need to say anything more–he should have known better than to approach her.

As I entered the meeting hall, the room fell silent, I took a quick glance around. A large wooden table dominated the center of the room, surrounded by chairs. A few couches were scattered around, and books and scrolls were stacked high on the shelves.

“How could I forget? This is a pack of wizards,” I muttered under my breath.

The Iron Crown Pack wasn’t just a werewolf pack–they had a long history with wizards. That explained why they often relied on magic to deal with their challenges.

The thought irritated me. Didn’t that prove their own weakness?

Even though they valued unity and sought help from one another, I had never once turned to a witch or wizard for assistance.

Not even when my father was dying from a fatal illness.

“Alpha Kane.”

The sound of Alpha Magnus’s voice pulled me from my thoughts. I turned to find him seated at the head of the table, his beta, Axel, beside him.

Ignoring his gaze, I walked to the table. My officials were already seated–they had arrived before Finn and me.

I took my seat beside them and focused my attention on Alpha Magnus.

“I always thought Alpha Kane was a punctual man. After all, you arrived at my pack a day early. So. why are you late to this meeting?”

I could sense the tension in the room. Others were worried I might take offense. But I wasn’t here to argue. Instead, I answered smoothly, “Apologies, Alpha Magnus. Something caught my attention earlier, and I got a little... distracted.”

The room fell into stunned silence. They all knew exactly what I was referring to.

Alpha Magnus chuckled. “Of course. I have plenty of interesting things in my pack. That must be why you left all your responsibilities behind to come here seeking an alliance.”

I simply nodded. I wasn’t in the mood for unnecessary conflict.

As the meeting commenced, each Alpha took turns presenting their proposals. Seven Alphas had gathered in the hall, all negotiating with Alpha Magnus.

When my turn came, Finn spoke on my behalf, detailing my offer. The room shifted uncomfortably when he mentioned offering military support.

“Would Alpha Kane himself come to defend this pack?” one of the Alphas finally asked.

“If necessary, I will,” I responded, my gaze steady.

I could see the unease in the other Alphas‘ eyes. The truth was, even if I hadn’t proposed this, I was stil I the most capable of providing aid. My pack was strong enough to support any other.

All eyes turned to Alpha Magnus, waiting for his reaction. He studied me carefully.

“Impressed?” I asked, knowing he had little choice but to accept.

Suddenly, he burst into laughter. I frowned.

17:23 “Alpha Kane Thorne,” he chuckled, shaking his head. “You really are something else.”

The entire hall went silent.
