Third Person’s POV
Prunella snapped her back straight. “Yes, sir!”
Caldwell’s eyes lit up as he listened.

He had already planned on keeping the Silverlight estate under 24–hour surveillance, but Klein’s idea to turn Alpha Howell into a penniless rogue before he even reached Hudson City was beautifully twisted. He absolutely loved the plan.
Klein let out another cold snort.
“And don’t think I’m giving you the cold shoulder for no reason. Your mentor, Irene, was up on the Shadow Peaks messing with alchemical black powder and managed to turn my courtyard into a pile of rubble! Not only that, she ordered me to the capital to help you deal with this mess. So, my mood is terrible!”
Craig and Prunella traded a subtle, knowing glance.
Irene was tinkering with black powder again?
Back when they first heard Adelaide was heading to the front lines, Irene started refining dangerous powders in her lab like a madwoman. She’d tried it before, but the results usually lacked any real “punch.”
This time she actually leveled Klein’s backyard? Did she finally crack the formula?
Prunella’s curiosity momentarily outweighed her fear.
She couldn’t help but ask, “So… how big was the blast? Like, is the whole courtyard gone–gone?”
Beside her, Caldwell winced and covered his eyes in phantom pain.
A dangerous hiss vibrated in Klein’s chest, and a violent wave of aura slammed into Prunella.
“Get out and do what I told you to do!”
Terrified, Prunella’s legs shook as she scrambled out the door.
Caldwell watched her go, sighing inwardly.
Whether it was Craig or Prunella–high–ranking wolves who commanded massive respect in the capitary noble cacin nothing but obedient pups in front of Klein.
Honestly, Caldwell figured that even when Adelaide saw him, she’d probably tuck her tail and kill her as instantly
Not long after Prunella fled, Lance and Adelaide returned to the estate under the cover of night
The moment they stepped inside, they fell Klein’s overwhelming aura
The reactions of the capital’s most powerful Alpha and Luna were polar opposites one’s wolf was prctically wagging its tad with excitement, while the other was inwardly groaning at the trouble ahead.
Regardless, they both headed straight for the study to pay their respects

As for Paisley and Avery, they didn’t dare set foot in that room. They feared Klein’s temper far too much to provoke the “Great Beast” willingly.
The heavy study door swung open.
When Klein saw Lance–his proudest student–his eyes immediately filled with a rare, indulgent warmth.
But the moment his gaze landed on Adelaide, his eyelids drooped with visible disapproval.
“Master, what are you doing in the capital?” Lance strode forward, his voice full of respect and genuine affection.
Adelaide followed behind in her heavy combat boots, taking tiny, hesitant steps.
“Master Klein… you’re here,” she murmured.
Predictably, Klein only acknowledged Lance.
“I’m here because of Irene! She blew my courtyard to pieces. The place is being renovated, and since I had nowhere to sleep. I decided to tolerate your pack for a few days.”
He turned his head, his gaze cutting into Adelaide like a serrated blade.
Her wolf let out an instinctive shiver.
She immediately shuffled over to stand next to Craig, trying to make herself as invisible as possible.
Sensing the volatility in the air, Lance smartly changed the subject.
