The werewolf collective consciousness was linked, and when the pack’s glory materialized as Alpha Bentley’s memorial plaque shimmered in the snow, every wolf’s nape gland resonated–a primal summons etched in their blood, the highest tribute to the fallen.
Lycan Erasmus stepped down from his carriage, his pine–and–amber pheromones parting the snow like an invisible force.
With a sweep of his hand, his bronze war bracelet clashed with his wolf–head emblem, producing a resonant chime. The sound, carrying blessings for the victorious, compelled lower–rank wolves to kneel.
As musicians struck their guitars in unison, drummers raised their mallets to a thunderous rhythm.
Then, the guitar music started, the drummers raised their drumsticks and struck hard to the rhythm of the music. The trumpets played a brief prelude, then the guitars and drums began to play together. The sound was as mighty as a charging army.
Everyone present was filled with excitement and passion, their eyes shining with emotion.
Each note seemed to tell the story of the hardships and glory on the battlefield.
When the final drumbeat fell, everything fell silent.
olding Alpha Bentley’s memorial plaque, lifted it high as he was about to enter the city, as if Alpha Bentley’s wolf soul into the city first.
walked into the city with steady steps, and others followed closely behind.
Everyone holding the memorial plaques was silent, with solemn and respectful expressions on their faces.
“I return victorious with Alpha Bentley, having reclaimed the southern border!”
Lance’s voice, laced with a wolf howl, shook the snow from the battlements.
As Bloodscar Border’s former lieutenant, the marking on his neck–a legacy from Alpha Bentley’s final moments–glowed faintly, casting a silvery–blue radiance in the victory light.

The crowd erupted in deafening cheers.

His voice choked with emotion as he declared, “Rise, you are all heroes!”

She stood ramrod straight, clutching her brother’s memorial plaque to her chest, her gaze lowered to avoid meeting Lycan Erasmus’s eyes.
“Gamma Adelaide,” Lycan Erasmus called softly.
“Present!” Adelaide responded, her voice strong.
Despite the dust and weariness from the journey, her striking beauty was evident.
Her bright eyes, like luminous pearls, caught the light.
Lycan Erasmus felt a pang of guilt.
He’d once doubted her, thinking her envious of Velda.
Yet she’d proven herself with action and unmatched skill.
She was Alpha Bentley’s daughter, with the Davidson family’s resilience and pride flowing through her veins.
“The Davidson family and you have done well!” he praised.
“Circle the city with Alpha Lance and the other Gamma plaque–bearers. Accept the people’s applause. You are heroes of the southern border reclamation, and your deeds will be forever remembered.”
Adelaide’s eyelashes fluttered. “Yes, sir!”
Lycan Erasmus didn’t join the victory parade but returned to the palace to prepare a grand banquet.
The palace was ready to celebrate the hard–won triumph.
Ulrik and Velda trailed the procession. 2
Ulrik had spent half the journey on horseback, his temporary marking faded like snow, a reminder of the wolfsbane–induced agony he’d endured for Velda’s sins.
His hand trembled as he supported Velda, not from the cold, but from the stench of white–sage and decay emanating from her—a permanent reminder of the Western Tribes‘ interrogation.
