Burn in the Alpha Princess's Wrath novel Chapter 216

Chapter 216 The Marriage Contract

Kirby’s POV

Inside the Crimson Moon Pack headquarters, in my office, silence reigned.

A massive holographic screen looped a video that had taken over the Pack’s network, its popularity only climbing higher.

On the screen was my cousin Carris–dressed in a sharp explorer’s outfit, his striking features full of confidence as he casually introduced his new studio and the upcoming adventure documentary, Wasteland.

That face alone was enough to drive countless Omegas wild.

And the name of his studio, in bold letters, was “Queen’s Blessing.”

I stared at the screen, my pheromones tangled and chaotic.

Fury surged in my chest, threatening to tear apart my reason.

I turned to Malach, my voice cold and hard as I forced back the anger about to erupt. “What’s going on?”

The smile on Malach’s face was strained to the point of collapse. His voice shook. “It was… Leslie’s money. She gave Carris one hundred million.”

“One hundred million, what a fitting number…” My wolf, Lance, roared inside me, his voice laced with jealousy and mockery. She used our money to fund another young wolf circling around her! And you, Kirby, what did you do? You just stood there and watched!

Lance’s words poured oil on my anger. My Alpha pheromones spilled out of control, turning the air thick and icy, suffocating.

Malach lowered his head, clearly used to this atmosphere, but still forced himself to speak. “Even though we cut off all of his studio’s funding, the money Fu Yanni took came from Queen Leslie. Many partners who had already canceled their contracts are now reconsidering. His studio probably won’t shut down any time soon.”

I was silent for a few seconds before letting out a cold laugh. “He really has no shame taking money from a woman?”

The words dripped with mockery, yet my chest ached as if stabbed with needles.

The thought that the one hundred million credits might have come from the money I spent on paintings made me feel even worse.

I grabbed a document from my desk, glanced at Malach, and said flatly, “I don’t want to see this kind of news again.”

“Yes, I’ll take care of it.” Malach let out a breath of relief, ready to leave, but then turned back, his tone heavy. “Alpha, Alpha Marcus is here.”

My brow furrowed. I gave a small nod, though unease rose in my chest.

Marcus walked in and immediately took the main seat on the sofa, his aura as commanding as

ever.

My mother, Belle, stood beside him. Her expression carried a trace of resentment, her eyes flicking to me as if blaming me for something.

“Grandfather, Mother, what brings you here?” I tried to keep my voice steady, though I already had a guess.

Belle’s tone was reproachful. “It’s been days. Your sister isn’t here, and you haven’t come back to Bloodrock Estate even once. Are we not allowed to come see you?”

Marcus coughed, cutting her off. His sharp gaze locked on me. “Prepare yourself for tonight. I’ve arranged a dinner with the Rogue Pack.”

My brows drew tight. “The Rogue Pack?”

The decision was too sudden–even my mother hadn’t expected it.

She immediately voiced her displeasure. “Why dine with them? Leslie already has several young wolves around her. I sent you the videos-”

“Mom!” I cut her off, irritation creeping into my voice.

That video from the other night flashed in my mind, Leslie’s figure stirring up emotions I couldn’t control.

“Enough!” Marcus’s voice thundered with Alpha authority, crushing her words flat. “The Rogue Pack’s princess is not for you to dismiss at will.”

Mother froze where she stood, her face paling with humiliation.

Ever since Slyvana was sent away, her status within the Pack had grown unstable. Now, scolded so harshly in front of me, while I stood indifferent, her resentment deepened—and so did her loathing for Leslie,

Marcus took a long breath, his voice hoarse but firm. “Kirby, this matter between you and Leslie must have an end. When she was in danger, you defied the Sea Demons to save her. I know she’s in your heart. Now, half of Crimson Moon’s ships have been destroyed by their retaliation,

but the Rogue Pack stands with us in business. If our two Packs mend ties, if you and Leslie renew your marriage contract, it will be the best outcome.”

I lowered my head, silent for a moment, my emotions tangled.

Marcus never makes a losing trade. He knew Leslie’s current position, and he knew my feelings for her.

Even Crimson Moon was willing to bow its head for this.

I gave a quiet answer. “Alright.”

Though I knew the path ahead would not be easy, the thought of seeing her again sparked a faint anticipation in me.

After a pause, I instructed Malach, “Send Luna back to her estate. She doesn’t need to attend tonight’s dinner.”

Marcus nodded in agreement. “Good. Don’t waste this chance to reconcile with the Rogue Pack.”

My mother’s face twisted even more, but she had no choice. Malach “escorted” her out of headquarters.

As she left, the fury and humiliation in her eyes were almost tangible.
