Third Person’s POV
Today, with gifts to be logged and stored, the missing pink diamonds had to be reported,

Caldwell knew these gifts cwith registers and lists. Any shortage would be spotted at inventory.
The diamonds arrived in boxes, slabeled with quantities. Regardless of the records, he had to inform Alpha
Lance and Luna Adelaide-Madison mustn't benefit from this.
On hearing this, Lance’s expression darkened. “Are you sure? Did she really take them?”
“Crystal clear. She took them herself. When Susan stole them, the wolf guards witnessed it but couldn't expose
her on the spot.”
Lance believed it-it matched his mother’s style.
It wasn’t greed. She loved face and showing off, and she often associated with Madison and Wanda.
Despite being at a disadvantage, she tried to please them.
“I'll handle it myself after we return from the palace,” Lance said.
Adelaide was exasperated-what was Priscilla thinking? Giving her gifts to Madison?
Was it to save face or to show she could control the new Luna?
Adelaide despised such unreasonable people.
She understood Priscilla’s attitude toward Madison and her schemes.
What puzzled her was why the usually dominant Priscilla would fear Madison and her daughter. Were they truly
formidable?
“I'll go,” Adelaide responded firmly.
“Oh?” Lance had smisgivings. Madison was tough to deal with. If she denied everything, things could get
complicated.
“If I can’t even reclaim a few diamonds, how can | stand my ground? But first, | must gave the diamonds to her.”
Priscilla why she

Susan had just reported that Adelaide spent the night with Lance and was fully marked.
Priscilla was satisfied but still hadn't fully accepted Adelaide's second mating.

Lance, knowing about the pink diamonds, suppressed his anger, took Adelaide's hand, and knelt to greet
Priscilla.
Adelaide offered Priscilla a coffee cup.
Priscilla deliberately ignored them until Lance's eyes almost blazed with fury. Only then did she slowly take the
coffee and sip it before setting it down.
“Bring the gifts,” she ordered imperiously.
Susan placed a tray with a pair of diamond-embedded rose bracelets and smilingly offered them to Adelaide as a
gift.
Following protocol, Adelaide thanked her with a bow.
Priscilla was rubbing her neck and said, “Oh, | didn’t sleep well last night. It was such a restless night, and now |
have a headache. Cand givea head massage.”
“Wait!” Lance interrupted in a cold voice.
His cedar pheromones suddenly becintense, and his wolf ears pricked up.
“I need to ask you something. Did you take a few pink diamonds from Adelaide's wedding gifts and give them to
Madison last night?”
Priscilla’s eyes darted away-a telltale sign of guilt.
The mark on the back of her neck suddenly burned, and a bitter taste surfaced in her mint pheromones.
Her wolf tail curled defensively under her skirt, and her vertical pupils becjagged in the sunlight. “Who's
spreading rumors? | won't let this go.”
Lance’s cedar pheromones exploded like a blizzard, his aura so oppressive that the moon grass in the hall shed
leaves.
His nail-hardened fingers scraped the wolfbone table, leaving five silver-blue blood streaks. “Did you or not?”
“Answer me!”
Priscilla was intimidated by her son’s stern expression-it mirrored the former Lycan King’s wrath.
Lance’s aura, unlike the former Lycan King’s white musk, carried the rust scent of battlefields.
While she could still act coquettish

Under Lance's intense gaze, she signaled to Susan.
Susan dropped to her knees with a thud. “Alpha Lance, it’s all my fault.”
She spilled everything about Madison’s bet with Priscilla.

After hearing the whole story, Adelaide gave Lance a calming look, signaling him not to act impulsively.
Then she spoke, “It's just a few pink
