Chapter 2Lsabella's pov :
After Xavier left, I returned to the dinner party.
With the example of the broken hand just now, although the eyes of the crowd still fell on me intentionally or unintentionally, no one dared to come forward and offend.
I scanned around and an unfamiliar man caught my eye.
This should also be an Alpha.
He was about 6 feet 3 inches tall and had handsome features like an ancient Greek statue.
His powerful intimidating force pressed over without a second thought, making all present feel intimidated.
This is by no means the aura that a small pack of Alpha can exude!
I suddenly realized that he also had blond hair, so he really looked a bit similar to Xavier.
As I thought about this, the gentleman was already walking to the center of the room.
His sharp eyes glanced around the room and rested briefly on me.
His eyes were cold and seemed to have a disdainful look.
At this moment, the expression on his face was the same as the others in the room, and it was obvious that he also despised me for being a female Alpha.
At this point, Charlotte walked up to him with a flirtatious smile on her face.
"Jasper, where have you been just now? I've been looking for you."
The man called Jasper did not give this beauty a look, he nodded very perfunctorily, and then handed the finished glass of wine to Charlotte in passing.
Charlotte's expression froze but quickly returned to the previous smile.
Although I have never met Jasper in person, through the conversation between the two of them, I also know his identity.
This man should be the leader of the Blue Moon Pack, one of the strongest people on the East Continent: Jasper-Adolf.
His family has ruled the largest pack on the East Continent for generations and is very powerful.
The target mission I set before coming here was to find the right pack and turn them into powerful allies of the Blood Moon Pack.
Although I aspire to be strong, I will not choose to work with someone who does not respect me.
I looked coldly at Jasper, who was already surrounded by a number of sycophantic Alpha's who obviously wanted to butter him up.
Jasper shook hands with them in greeting and gave them a few perfunctory words, and then he walked straight in my direction.
"I didn't think there was really a female Alpha here, how interesting! I advise you to hand over your power before it's too late, or you'll definitely drag your wolf pack down."
Jasper's voice was low, but it was clear enough for the entire meeting room to hear.
Very funny!
I retracted what I had just said about how similar he and Xavier were.
He's not worthy to compare with my Xavier.
The man in front of me looks noble but has such a vicious heart.
Jasper's eyes fell on me like he wanted to crush me into the dust.
I tried to slow my voice down and retorted coldly, "You just met me for the first time, how do you know I can't lead a pack?"
Jasper scanned the crowd that had gathered with a playful smile: "Oh? If you say so, then how about a duel between our two clans tomorrow on the East Continent? If you can survive until the sun goes down, I'll take back my words."
Before I could reply, Charlotte smoothly came over to cater to him, "Alpha, you're bullying the little pack too much, I think it's okay to stick around until lunch, hahahahaha!"
I knew Charlotte couldn't stand the thought of having a beautiful woman like me steal her thunder, so she would definitely seize the opportunity to humiliate me at all times.
Their remarks caused the people in the audience to burst into laughter.
Everyone knew that Blue Moon Pack didn't have to wait until the sun went down to annex a small wolf pack like us, but it was too much before lunch.
Jasper and Charlotte were clearly mocking me!
At this moment, Jasper's handsome face can only make me feel disgusted, and the little good feeling that he had accumulated in my heart as a strong man has completely disappeared.
Due to the current disparity in strength between our two clans, I could only swallow this first, and I couldn't lead the wolves to a dangerous situation because of my own momentary impulse.
I fell into silence, refusing to face his taunts directly.
Jasper saw that I did not respond to him and felt bored, so he snorted coldly and walked away.
With Jasper gone, Charlotte wasn't interested in staying here either.
She pretended to point around the circle of people, "You do not bully the weak pack Oh!"
Then she left the center of the hubbub with a winning stance.
After they left, the people around immediately laughed and laughed, and all kinds of unpleasant sounds slipped into my ears.
"Hey, you're so weak, you got your Alpha position by your bed skills, right?"
A disgusting remark rang out in the crowd, and the people around me immediately burst into laughter.
In their eyes, I was a leader of a small wolf pack who did not dare to resist, and with the Beta around me missing, they could now bully me as much as they wanted.
"I've heard that ambitious women will use that advantage they have to make even powerful werewolves willingly kneel down at her skirt, that Beta just now is really pitiful, how could she be fooled by you?"
"Then what are you still doing here at the meeting? Wouldn't it be better to stay in bed and wait for your Beta?"
The more they talked, the more powerful they became, and some even put their hands on my shoulders.
I briefly swept the people around me, and those who were watching from afar.
I think I probably underestimated this wolf world where the weak are stronger than the strong.
This is not the Blood Moon Pack, after all, it's a place where the winner will always be respected.
I have to show a little bit of my ability, I have to take the victory proudly and give them a hard slap on the face so they will submit to me!
I slowly gripped the wrist that was resting on my shoulder and turned my head to meet a pair of eyes that were filled with levity and molestation.
I grinned, and as my hand flared up, I warned these people who weren't afraid to die, word for word: "Don't take my patience as a capital that you can be as arrogant as you want!"
My sudden burst of powerful force threw this Beta in front of me out of the door.
The moment he fell to the ground, I had come to his side and transformed my form.
I threw my head back and howled, pacing back and forth in front of the fallen Beta.
At that moment, all the people in the banquet hall poured out of the building and gathered around us, with a few shouts and whistles coming from time to time.
"Stand up Ethan! Are you going to lose to this woman!"
With his friends cheering him on and so many people around, Ethan was obviously a little afraid of losing face.
He braced himself for the pain and got up from the ground, and also transformed into a wolf form.
It was a gray wolf, and it was looking at me with its teeth bared.
I bared my fangs and lowered my predecessor, waiting for the right moment.
In an instant, the two lights tangled together and separated after a brief contact.
The crowd a few gasps and held their breath again.
The battle was so fast that they could not determine the state of the two sides of the fight.
The smell of blood ran up and the sound of pattering came into the people's ears.
The crowd searched for the source of the sound and their eyes fell on me as I spat out a severed limb from my mouth.
By the light coming through the hall, I could see that it was gray fur.
Behind me, there was a "poof" and another wolf fell to the ground.
I regained my human form, and my face was still stained with some blood. I reached out and gently wiped it off, it was the blood of the weak.
I looked toward the crowd, who backed up to make way for me, and no one dared to look at me with their previous contemptuous eyes.
This is the law of survival in the world of wolves.
Not only did I understand this now, but I was able to use it to gain respect for myself.
I looked toward the distance, and Jasper was standing there at some point.
I raised my face, still stained with blood beads, to gaze at him.
He was standing on the steps of the hall, looking down at me, with a smile that seemed to be in the corner of his mouth.
It was not a mocking smile, I could read some appreciation on his face.
"Interesting." I read his lips.
He raised his glass and clinked the air in my direction, and Charlotte, with her voluptuous figure, stood at Jasper's side.
Apparently, she also noticed the change in Jasper's expression.
She first gave Jasper a surprised look, then followed his gaze and met my eyes.
When the eyes met, I could feel the anger erupting in her eyes.
But I didn't care, after all, I was the winner.
Lsabella's pov :
When the dinner started, Charlotte came towards me with two glasses of wine, accompanied by Ethan, who I had beaten up and bruised.
He was holding a glass of wine, and his other injured hand looked like someone had bandaged it for him.
I don't know what she had in mind, after all, she was leading the mockery of me with Jasper just a moment ago, and now she's actually coming here to sell favors.
I smiled politely and didn't intend to respond to her.
"I went back and thought carefully, as the strongest pack on the East Continent, we Blue Moon Pack deserve to maintain peace between packs, not to start a war, I apologize on behalf of Blue Moon Pack, let us drink this drink, how about we forget about tonight's matter? "
Charlotte is the Beta of Blue Moon Pack, Ethan's pack's status is no better than hers, so he didn't dare to disobey her order.
Waiting for Charlotte to finish, he hurriedly raised his glass.
"Miss Lsabella I also apologize to you!"
Charlotte smoothly handed me the other glass of wine in her hand, with a fake smile on her face.
Although I really hate this hypocrisy of this set!
But things have come to this point, I have to accept their "good intentions".
I took the glass, raised it in Ethan's direction, and looked up to drink the wine out of it.
After dinner, I planned to return to my place.
My place was not far from the venue, so I was going to walk back to get rid of the alcoholic fumes so that Xavier wouldn't worry.
He was always so worried about my safety that he would be angry if he knew that I would return to the house alone after a few drinks in one sitting.
I don't know if he's this nagging in front of others.
But after I saved Xavier, he was always by my side.
When I think about it, he only seems to be this nervous about me.
I thought about it as I walked, and before I could take two steps, I felt something wrong with my body.
A dry, hot breath permeated my body, my eyes gradually became blurry and my head was a little dazed.
I stopped holding onto the wall and struggled to hold my blurry eyes open, and I could vaguely see a man standing on the dim corner in front of me.
It was Liam.
He smiled lustily and rubbed his hands together excitedly after seeing my abnormality.
Damn, there must be something wrong with that glass of wine!
I didn't think Charlotte would dare to do it before the meeting even started, did Jasper instruct him?
After all, he is also the Alpha of the largest wolf pack on the Eastern Continent.
Do I still need such nasty means to deal with me?
The effect of the hallucinogens made me unable to think.
Liam rushed over and hugged me at once, but my body had gone limp and I couldn't break free.
With my last bit of strength, I pulled out my dagger.
Liam was startled, but I took the knife and stabbed myself in the shoulder.
I couldn't kill Liam now, but I could get help.
Werewolves have a keen sense of smell, and the dripping blood would allow Xavier to find me as quickly as possible.
The blood flowed down my shoulder and I fell into a complete semi-conscious state.
I felt someone dragging me up and seemingly into the building.
After I stopped, someone was tugging at my clothes.
In my unconsciousness, I vaguely heard what he said.
"Baby, you know what? Your disgusting little follower broke my right hand. If it wasn't for him, we could have had more fun tonight, only now I can only undress you with one hand. But it's okay, just be a little patient, I'll come and satisfy you soon!"
"Take it easy, baby, am I not better than that Xavier? When we're done, I'll send someone to kill him so you can return to the Fai Moon Pack with me."
Liam laughed and tore my clothes apart.
His brute force made my scalding skin suddenly naked in the air, but it did not relieve my pain at all.
I tried to open my eyes, raise my arms, and break free of Liam's clutches, but I couldn't do anything.
The pain and suffocation were all over my body.
At this moment, all I could think about was Xavier, I needed him!
