A Female Alpha’s Revenge novel Chapter 7

Adelaide's POV

After securing Erasmus's promise, I felt a little lighter.

Back at Bloodmoon, I slept soundly.

The next morning, as I freshened up, Ulrik burst in, his face set and Alpha aura blazing.

The force of his aura hit me like a tidal wave.

My wolf whined in my skull, trapped under the weight of it.

"Adelaide!" he roared, half-wolf fury in his voice.

Beata stepped forward, but the power gap between us drained her, sweat beading on her forehead.

But she stood frozen, wide-eyed and trembling, "Alpha Ulrik, what—are you going to do?"

"Beata," I said calmly, "stand down."

She retreated to my side, still watching Ulrik like a hawk.

In my mind, I met my wolf's gaze. It rose, shaking off its snow-white fur, and pushed back against Ulrik's aura.

Ulrik's eyes narrowed.

"You went to the palace yesterday. Complained to Lycan Erasmus, tried to get his decree revoked."

He spat the words, not as a question but a statement, his jaw clenched.

I met his gaze calmly and shook my head. "No."

"No?" He smirked, contempt lacing his words.

"Coward much? Is this how the Frostfang Alpha's daughter behaves? Pathetic."

The man before me felt unfamiliar, sending a chill down my spine.

Was this even the Ulrik I thought I knew?

Ulrik's eyes reddened with frustration.

Fangs bared, he snarled, "Speak! What else did you say to Lycan Erasmus? Did he agree to revoke the decree?"

I looked down. "Lycan Erasmus didn't agree. The bonding ceremony will proceed as planned."

Ulrik exhaled sharply but kept his tone cold. "That bond was earned through battle. If Lycan Erasmus wavers, it'll shame every Alpha warrior. He summoned me to the palace today but refused an audience—probably due to your theatrics. I won't stoop to your level, but know this—I've done my duty."

"Play nice, Adelaide. No more drama. Once Velda and I bond, you'll have pups of your own."
