A Female Alpha’s Revenge novel Chapter 481

Chapter 481

Third Person’s POV

Christine turned every word of Adelaide’s over in her mind.

She’d come because she suspected ulterior motives.

She couldn’t be sure of much, but she knew Alpha Germain had returned to the capital claiming Pandora

was ill.

They were supposed to be caring for Pandora, yet he’d first visited the Blackthorn Pack.

And now, after meeting Gloria at the Blackthorn Pack, he was heading to the Ironclaw Pack. Christine found it hard to believe there was nothing more to it.

As the future Luna of the Ironclaw Pack, she had her own keen insight, observational skills, and a knack for sensing danger.

The capital was home to many powerful packs and prestigious families.

Yet Alpha Germain didn’t seek them out–he made a beeline for the Ironclaw Pack.

It didn’t take much to guess why. Tad held command of the Southern Border Legion.

“Christine, take him at face value. Just follow the usual etiquette,” Adelaide said, noticing Christine’s hesitation.

She knew Christine well enough to guess what she was thinking.

Christine was quite capable, so Adelaide decided to give her a little more guidance.

“It’s up to you. If you think Luna Sadi is approachable and want to befriend her, that’s your choice. But if you think she’s out of your league, there’s no harm in keeping your distance,” Adelaide added.

Now that Adelaide had spelled things out, Christine understood.

She didn’t dare think further–it wasn’t her place.

All she could do was ensure the Ironclaw Pack’s dealings with everyone were aboveboard.

After Christine left, Caldwell entered.

He seldom came to see Adelaide on his own, but he’d been keeping an eye on things since Christine arrived and had overheard part of the conversation.

“Did I strike the right balance?” Adelaide asked him.

“Perfectly,” Caldwell replied with a bow. “You can’t be too explicit, Luna Adelaide, but you also can’t leave things completely unmentioned. After all, the Southern Border’s werewolf warriors are either part of Alpha Bentley’s Legion or the Royal Army.”

Adelaide sighed. “Yes, that’s true. I can’t just stand idly by. But Christine is now assisting in managing the

Ironclaw Pack. She can’t be privy to everything.”

“So, as you said, you struck the right balance, Caldwell said before taking his leave.

Adelaide watched him leave, momentarily stunned.

She’d expected him to discuss the matter further, but he’d only come in to compliment her.

Caldwell wasn’t the beta of the pack, but Lance treated him as an advisor.

In reality, he managed the entire pack’s affairs, fulfilling the duties of a beta.

Beyond Caldwell, the pack should have had its own gamma, but Lance was picky and hadn’t found the right person yet.

So Caldwell took on the workload of two, which elevated his status within the pack.

Caldwell was always busy, rarely seen from morning till night.

He had a deputy, Ralph, who handled day–to–day operations. Ralph managed most of the pack’s routine affairs.

Adelaide sometimes felt exhausted just from meeting with various supervisors every other day to hear their endless reports.

Though she never complained, Caldwell had taken the initiative to suggest that Ralph screen the matters first, only reporting the essential ones to her and handling the trivial ones on his own.

He was truly considerate.

Over the past few days, Ramona had been frequently visiting the Blackthorn Pack.

Naturally, this was because Paisley was learning dance from her. They’d discovered a great rapport, so Ramona was invited to the pack more often.

Adelaide, however, maintained a distance from Ramona.

Today, after Ramona had just left, Paisley went to the villa to see Adelaide.

As soon as she entered, she plopped down and said, “Ramona’s a really great person. I think you seem to take a dislike to her.”

“I’ve only met her a few times. It’s too soon to like or dislike her,” Adelaide said, glancing sideways at her.
