Third Person’s POV
Sidney gripped Adelaide’s wrist tightly, glancing outside, her breathing labored.

The ashen wolf fur at the back of her neck brushed against the silver bracelet on Adelaide’s wrist. Cedar
pheromones mixed with a shuddering tone, “Listen to me, Germain’s no good. He and Madison have been
scheming secretly for years.”
Adelaide's moon mark blazed hot at the nape of her neck. Silver-blue blood beads welled from her elongated
claws.
“What?” she gasped.
Her pupils slit like ice in the candlelight. The Alpha presence of the Shadowfang Pack surged, frost spreading
across the carpet. The hot cocoa Paisley brought in trembled and rippled.
Adelaide swiftly dismissed everyone and posted Paisley on guard.
Paisley stood at the door, her ears flattened from the Alpha aura.
“Sidney, what do you mean?” Adelaide pressed.
Sidney's head sagged. Her sulfur pheromones reeked of fear. “For years, he’s been secretly recruiting private
forces in Blue Ridge State, funded by Madison and Maya. Those werewolves are hidden on Madison's private
land.”
Adelaide's claws dug into the sandalwood table, silver-blue blood freezing the five deep grooves.
She knew Madison's territory-the land granted by the old Lycan King, still marked with the Moon Goddess’s

“Don’t cross him. Don’t oppose him,” Sidney rasped, her voice trembling with fear and cold.
The temporary mark on Sidney's nape cracked with ice crystals, a sign of a werewolf's impending collapse. “He's
far more complex than outsiders think,” Sidney noted.
Adelaide caught the suffocating fear in Sidney’s pheromones, overshadowing any faint reassurance.
“For years, he’s played the ‘doting breeder’ card, but it was all for show-to mislead Lycan Erasmus,” Sidney
added.
As Sidney revealed the truth about the “doting breeder,” Adelaide's wolf roared deafeningly in her mind, making
her temples throb.
Everyone thought Germain was incompetent and lazy. Even Adelaide had believed it.
Likely, Lycan Erasmus’s spies in Blue Ridge State overlooked the recruitment happening on Madis land.
Madison didn’t even reside there-how would Erasmus know about Fairfax County?

No wonder Madison had been so brazen in her corruption.
After speaking, Sidney grew weak and dozed off.

On December twenty-second, her spirits unexpectedly rallied. She ate lunch and dinner, even asking for more
and eating half of it.
Adelaide thought her condition was improving and was overjoyed, encouraging Sidney to rest and promising
spring would bring recovery.
Sidney smiled and agreed, “Okay!”
Adelaide, too caught up in her relief, missed the silent sigh from Arnold.
By midnight on Christmas’s Eve, Adelaide and Paisley were roused by Arnold's knock and her choked voice,
“Sidney has passed away!”
Adelaide bolted upright, gasping as if surfacing from a deep dive. “No!”
Sidney had passed peacefully in her sleep.
Arnold, who had kept vigil, discovered her lifeless in the early hours when checking on her.
She didn’t make it through the year and passed away in the silence of the Greenwood Sanatorium.
Lance arrived early on Christmas’s Eve morning. Upon hearing the news, he held Adelaide close, expecting tears.
Instead, she was eerily calm, her eyes dry.
Adelaide's wolf curled inward, a silver-blue droplet sliding from her bitten lip.
Amid Greenwood’s wood scent, she sensed Sidney's final pheromones-moon grass and resignation.
Nestled in his embrace, she whispered, “She’s gone. Perhaps it’s a relief.”

All were steeped in sorrow.
Lance held Adelaide throughout, not letting her out of his arms.
She lay still as a hurt kitten, silent and motionless.
