A Female Alpha’s Revenge novel Chapter 4

Adelaide's POV

I turned to leave, but Luna Rosemary unleashed a wolfish howl behind me.

"Wait!"

I glanced back, no intention of returning.

Rosemary's face darkened.

She roared to me, "Adelaide, how can you be so foolish? Ulrik's an Alpha—he'll have more than one woman. Every pack works this way. You're still his mate—what more do you want?"

Her words made me sneer inwardly.

A year of compliance had made them think me pliable.

They forgot that I was Alpha Bentley's daughter.

"Cool your jets," I said flatly. "Other packs can rot for all I care."

Rosemary spluttered, coughing into her fist.

Normally, I'd comfort her, but this time, I stayed put.

Sabrina barged in, eyes blazing. "Look at Luna Rosemary! You're embarrassing us! Frostfang's already fallen—your family's gone. What makes you think your Alpha blood means squat now? Ulrik can reject you too!"

I looked at Sabrina, dressed in the pale yellow dress I had made for her last fall.

Now she wore it to question and accuse me—how considerate.

"Take it off first," I said coolly, "then have your tantrum."

Sabrina's face flushed. "I didn't beg for this dress! I'll return it!"

"Go ahead," I said. "And those gems on your neck and wrist? Return those too." I swept my gaze over the room—only Rosemary kept her poker face.

"Anything else?" I asked. "No? Then I'm leaving." I strode out, not looking back.

But I didn't leave immediately.

I stood at the door, my wolf snarling in my mind. "You should've let me take over. Let me rip their throats out with my claws."

I rubbed my temples, responding silently, "We're in Bloodmoon territory, near Lycan Erasmus's palace. I don't want to be a werewolf outlaw."

Muffled voices drifted from inside.

My ears twitched, and I mentally silenced my wolf.

Sabrina muttered, "I can't believe Adelaide's being so stubborn. She even ignores you, Luna Rosemary."
