But the moment they stepped from the resting room into the hall, a figure appeared at the second-
floor landing.
“Alpha Henry, you really are blessed with luck. Not even the Sineville virus could bring you down.
Truly enviable.”
Ulrich stood there grinning, his smile venomous, his gaze locked tightly on Henry.
At once, more than a dozen beta warriors closed ranks at the doors of the banquet hall, blocking
every exit.
Aubrey and Henry needed no further explanation.
“So you didn’t die,” Aubrey said coldly.
“Thanks to the Moon Goddess, | was spared-so | could be here to expose you.” Ulrich sneered, then
called out loudly, “Alpha Loch, and honorable sir, every wolf who cared for Henry has fallen ill with
fever. He is the source-he must be! To keep him from infecting more of us, | say we kill him now!”

unmistakably alpha.
Henry's eyes darkened, and he leaned to Aubrey’s ear. “That's Nathan- one of the Alpha King’s most trusted
lieutenants.”
Aubrey’s brow furrowed. Ulrich not only lived, but had managed to draw in the royal court. With Nathan here,
concealing Henry's condition would

be nearly impossible.
Her fears were quickly confirmed.

Nathan's voice rang out, slow but absolute. “Alpha Henry, the Sineville virus is dangerously contagious. The
wolves who tended you are now all burning with fever and quarantined. We suspect you are the carrier. For the
safety of all, you must submit to testing. This is the Alpha King’s command.”
His words were deliberate, leaving no room for refusal.
Ulrich’s voice rose with false righteousness. “We all know it—this virus kills ninety-nine out of a hundred! If we
don’t prove the truth at once, the entire werewolf continent could be at risk!”
And he already knew Henry was infected. That certainty fueled every word he spat.
Aubrey’s sharp eyes cut to him. She studied him closely, unable to understand how he still stood so smugly. He
should have been writhing in pain—or dead.
Was he an immune carrier, like she herself? Even so, the virus should have left him suffering. Yet Ulrich showed
no sign of pain. Could he really be that lucky?
Neither she nor Henry could fathom it, but Henry dismissed the thought. It didn’t matter. What mattered was the
threat before them.
His expression hardened as he addressed Nathan. “Mr. Nathan, since when do southern wolves cnorth to
dictate our affairs? | recall the Alpha King’s own decree: the continents govern themselves,”
Nathan's brows drew tight, but he did not immediately refute him.

Henry turned his cold gaze on Loch. “And you-you, Alpha of FlPack. Days ago you pledged
alliance with me. Now, over Ulrich’s slander, you doubt me? You know the symptoms of infection:
fever, severed link to the wolf spirit, the body’s collapse within days. Do you see any of that in me?”
His challenge left both Nathan and Loch momentarily silent.
“This...” Loch faltered, “But Ulrich says you are infected...”
“Where is his proof?” Aubrey cut in, her laugh sharp as ice. “Whoever makes the claim must
provide the evidence. If baseless accusations are enough to demand Henry’s blood, then-” she
turned her gaze on Nathan -“Mr. Nathan, as a wolf doctor, | now suspect you of infection. Shouldn't
you also draw blood, here and now, to prove your innocence?”
“You-!” Nathan’s face darkened with fury, his aura of dominance flaring outward.
Almost at once, Henry stepped forward, shielding Aubrey with his body, his own alpha power
crashing forth.
The two pressures collided, invisible forces clashing with a roar that churned the very air around
them.
