Alpha King Chases Abandoned Luna

Chapter 408

Once beyond pack jurisdiction, she thought she could start a new life. She was reveling in the belief that I would suffer while Ethan grieved, and she would live freely in human society.

However, the destination was not the civilized country Victoria desired, but the lawless Bloodfang Territory in the savage lands beyond werewolf civilization. A hellish existence awaited her among the rogue packs that controlled human trafficking operations.

Hearing that Victoria had unknowingly sent herself to the Savage Lands and imagining the horrors of being enslaved by feral wolves, my expression softened. My wolf settled with grim satisfaction.

"This won't implicate the Blackwood Pack, will it?" I asked, still concerned for Lucas's standing among the Northern Territory Alphas.

"No, she contacted the traffickers herself through Derek Walsh's criminal connections. The Blackwood Pack has no involvement," Lucas reassured me, his gray eyes reflecting the same cold justice that Ethan Stone would have demanded.

Both Alphas shared the sentiment that Victoria's evil nature made a quick death too merciful. They wanted her to suffer a fate worse than any pack punishment.

However, even if she were captured, her documented mental instability would prevent proper sentencing under human law. The suffering available in civilized territory was too limited for her crimes.

Someone like Victoria was perfectly suited for the Savage Lands, where rogue wolves showed no mercy to those who harmed pups. Only then did I feel truly relieved, my wolf finally at peace knowing the threat was eliminated.
