Chapter 112: The Two Thrones
Maya stood in front of Eleanor, holding a tablet in her hand, her expression grim.
"A team from our U.S. division just visited the Indian companies," she began. "They've suggested several
improvements to our previous strategies for each company, but there’s a common problem we can’t ignore...
security and management are severely lacking. The employees are so casual that they have no concept of
company secrecy or confidentiality. We need to deploy our own security personnel immediately."
She paused, then looked up at Eleanor with concern in her eyes. "Also, we need to assess which of their
employees we can retain long-term. Everyone must sign confidentiality agreements, and we'll need to train them
on how to meet the standards of our company."
Eleanor nodded thoughtfully. "It’s okay. I've been planning to visit India for stnow. Looks like I'll have to
go sooner than expected. I'll personally oversee the security situation there."
She turned to her computer and quickly tapped a message to Lily.
"As for the training programs," she added aloud, "ask Lily to send a team from our administrative and legal
departments. Explain the situation to her thoroughly... she'll know what to do."
She looked at Maya again. "Send Teresa in on your way out."
Maya nodded and left the room. A moment later, Teresa entered.
"Boss, you called for me?"
"Yes. I'm planning an urgent trip to India," Eleanor replied. "Check my schedule and clear any conflicts so | can
arrange an appointment as soon as possible."
"There's nothing critical in your schedule for the next few days. Everything's flexible," Teresa said. "Who should |
call for the appointment?"
"Not you. | need to make this call personally."
Eleanor picked up her phone and dialed Fiona. The call was answered almost instantly.
"Grandma, | need to schedule a meeting with the matriarch of Harivamsa Clan," she said briskly.
"I'll send you the number of the Clan Head's secretary," Fiona replied without hesitation. "He should be able to
handle the appointment."
"And if there's any trouble, just letknow. I'll speak directly to the Clan Head."
"Thanks, Grandma."
Moments later, Eleanor received the contact information and placed the call.
"Hello, I'm Eleanor Elizabeth Raynor of the Raynor Clan," she said when the line connected. "I'd like to request an
appointment with Reverend Sarika Somavati Harivansha. Please convey the message to her."

"Ah! It's an honor to hear from you, Young Miss Raynor," cthe polite voice on the other end. "The Reverend
One is currently in a meeting with His Highness, the Heir Apparent. | was instructed not to disturb her unless it's
a matter of life or death."
"This isn’t urgent. Just let her know | need an appointment at her earliest convenience."
"Understood. I'll inform her after the meeting."
"Thank you," Eleanor said, ending the call.
She turned back to Teresa. "Maya needs support at the Indian companies. Talk to her and make arrangements. |
want the Indian branches to begin production as soon as possible. Also, send someone from our legal team to
draft new employment contracts and confidentiality agreements. You already know how to shape a company to
match our standards."
"Understood. I'll get on it right away," Teresa responded, and left the office.
Eleanor then opened her phone and checked the Whatgroup created for Freya's school moms. There were
over a hundred new messages. She skimmed through them and realized the group still hadn't finalized a venue
for their outing.
After deciding to follow up on the group chat later, she opened the live feed from Freya's school, watching her
daughter play classmates and solving puzzles. The sight brought a rare smile to her face.
She then began clearing the piled up works. After finishing her paperwork, she closed her laptop and left her
office... it was tto pick up Freya from school.
As she exited the elevator, Ethan's car was already waiting for her.
"You're early," she said as she entered his car.
"I like to be early when it’s about Freya," Ethan replied with a small smile.
They drove off to the school in silence, the comfort of routine enveloping them.

In the heart of an obsidian citadel,
beneath a vaulted ceiling etched with
constellations drawn from ancient
werewolf blooginfS pean
theope nom $rAdUse Lychos... the
ruling clan of the werewolves. Vast
and echoing, the hall seemed to
breathe with silence older than any
living soul within its walls. The hush
was broken only by the occasional
gust of wind curling through towering
arched windows of crystal glass. The

Each pane shimmered faintly, catching flashes of distant lightning from thunderclouds gathering over the high
peaks of snowing mountain. It was as though nature itself had cto bear witness, baring its teeth in
allegiance to the absent King.
At the far end of the hall, upon a dais carved from midnight-black stone laced with golden veins, stood two
thrones.... symbols of legacy and power.
The first, at the center, loomed with
somber authority. It was hewn from
black marble veined with fossilized
amber, like lightning ca turedHnm
stone. Hg higky Sh dems like
jdadad mountains, and above it hung
a banner stitched in gold: wolves
mid-howl| beneath a crescent moon.
This was the throne of Damon
Brontes Lychos, the King of
Werewolves. It stood vacant now...
silent, formidable, and cold... its
emptiness a thunderclap of absence.
To its right, smaller yet no less noble,
stood the throne of the High
Apparent. Crafted from white iron
and polished oak, it was GIEnEeh
runes of [eqiaedohd storm. Upon
itlsat\Erevan Brontes Lychos, the
crown prince. Draped in a
golden-edged cloak that spilled like
moonlight down the steps, Erevan
sat upright, a sculpture of poise and
power. A lightning-shaped tattoo
beneath his eye flickered with subtle
energy, the dormant strength of his
lineage stirring in his veins. The

He did not fidget or lean. His posture was that of someone carrying the weight of an entire race upon his back...
silent but commanding, still but alert.
Flanking the twin thrones in crescent formations were ten high-backed chairs, carved with the crests of the Great
Houses. Today, they were empty, their absence a testament to the lack of formal council. This was not a day for
politics or ceremony. This was a day of omens.
Beside the throne of the High Apparent sat the only occupied chair... one reserved for the High Priest of the
werewolves.
Sarika Somavati Harivamsa, the Revered One of the Werewolf Council, sat cloaked in twilight-hued silks. Runes
inlaid with gemstones glimmered faintly upon her sleeves. Her long braid of silver hair reached the floor, and
from her neck hung the Crescent Fang... an ancient relic said to have been carved from the tooth of the first
werewolf of her bloodline.
Her eyes were half-closed, yet all-seeing. She watched Erevan not as a subject to a ruler, but as a seer to a storm
not yet broken. The scent of Incense and old parchment lingered in the air. The air itself seemed charged, as
though the very stones waited to listen, to bear witness to whatever decree or destiny would next thunder
through these hallowed halls.
