Chapter 6
Alpha Chandler has still managed to keep our marriage under wraps. I sit in the office, reviewing the documents sent over by Darkline.
The Lancelot pack has truly suffered substantial losses.
They’ve manipulated the internet to deceive the Lancelot pack wolves into believing in Alpha Chandler and Monica’s wedding.
Monica is shamelessly promoting her status as the future Alpha of the Ravenclaw pack.
Through their series of maneuvers, Alpha Chandler’s reputation within the Lancelot pack is starting to recover.

In sharp contrast to their situation, a large number of journalists have begun circling the Ravenclaw pack headquarters, eager for a story.
My father has tried several times to clarify things, but I’ve stopped him.
“Dear Dad, a skilled wolf must capture its prey with patience.”
Alpha Daryl nodded gravely.
Once you believe you’ve won, your guard drops to its lowest point.
Only by letting Alpha Chandler and Monica fall from the top can we leave them with nothing, denying them any chance of
recovery.
Standing at the floor–to–ceiling window, I take

in the entirety of the Ravenclaw pack when Beta Emily enters and says:
“Cersei, all the elders of the Ravenclaw pack are here. What’s going on? Word is spreading that you aren’t the next Alpha of Ravenclaw pack.”
“I just can’t stand Monica. Is she really your sister?”
I shake my head, calmly regarding the room full of elders.
They’ve watched me grow alongside Alpha Harvey.
I had already informed them about my ascension to the Alpha position, hence their confusion over the rumors.
I invite the elders to sit down and personally

brew coffee for them.
Then I begin to share my plan.
“Alpha Chandler, desperate to shake off the Ravenclaw pack’s previous support, will do everything he can to sever these ties. We could stand to gain a significant penalty fee.”
I pause, a smile of ambition lighting up my face.
“Without Ravenclaw pack’s assistance, Alpha Chandler will have no choice but to borrow to cover the gaps in funding. Under my manipulation, his reforms are bound to fail, while Ravenclaw pack can reap profits without bearing the losses.”
The Lancelot pack was previously agriculture–based, but now they aim to transition to heavy industry.

In their haste to break free from Ravenclaw pack, Lancelot has nearly dismantled all of their agricultural ventures.
Alpha Chandler likely thinks of Ravenclaw pack as another one of his possessions, which explains his audacity.
As I speak, all the elders exchange knowing smiles.
The Ravenclaw pack just needs to wait to reap the fruits of victory.
Alpha Chandler never anticipated how quickly heavy industry could develop, all thanks to my behind–the–scenes efforts.
With newfound confidence, Alpha Chandler relentlessly borrowed money from other packs.

“Don’t let my plans fall through, Chandler. Accelerate your development.”
I glanced at the documents on the table, my patience wearing thin.
The Lancelot Pack’s status soared due to heavy industry, leapfrogging from the bottom ranks to the forefront.
But just like amputating a leg to make the other stronger, such achievements are fragile.
From my view through the floor–to–ceiling windows, I could clearly see the cars arriving below.
Chandler had traded in for a luxury vehicle.
Monica wrapped her arm around him as they

stepped out of the car, their demeanor both intimate and smug.
Finally, I had waited to see Alpha Chandler.
He strode into my office and slammed a thick stack of papers onto the desk.
His arrogant display was almost laughable.
Monica’s belly was prominently round, and she shot me a triumphant glance.
“I want to dissolve our pack alliance! Cersei, you still have a chance to apologize to Monica and me!”
I remained silent, slowly examining the documents before me.
They were all about the collaboration between the Ravenclaw Pack and the

Lancelot Pack.
It seemed Alpha Chandler genuinely wanted to sever ties with the Ravenclaw Pack for good.
I called for Emily to bring the company seal and decisively stamped it down.
“Oh! You’re just going to do that?”
Alpha Chandler stared at me, bewildered; nearly every pack was currying favor with him now.
“Alpha Cersei! Why are you being so foolish?”
I regarded him with mild indifference; the compensation he owed me was not insignificant. After all, his pack would eventually fall to me, and I couldn’t afford to

lose that money.
“To me, this is a wise decision!”
After five years of binding the Ravenclaw Pack closely with the Lancelot Pack to assist Alpha Chandler, finally being able to free myself felt like a weight lifted.
“We’re even; please return the penalty fee promptly.”
My words held no trace of emotion, and Alpha Chandler’s face turned crimson.
It seemed he had only come here to gauge my reaction.
I chuckled at the notice stating that the payment was due within seven days; he was trying to flaunt his wealth without the
means.

“Is this truly how you want to severdieses with me?” Alpha Chandler shouted in anger.er.
Monica, taken aback by his outburst, shotot him a surprised look before directing a fiercece glare at me.
I couldn’t help but laugh at the jealousy y etched on Monica’s face.
“The more you interpret it that way, the better.”
Stung by my words, Alpha Chandler wrapped his arm around Monica’s waist and boasted, “Cersei, you better think it through; recent headlines suggest I’m beyond your reach.”
I shook my head, smiling, and instructed Emily to show them out.
