As my voice rang out in a solemn chant, the black wolf’s fur began to shimmer faintly. Her anguished howls echoed through the space.

The connection she once had with the Eclipse Pack shattered completely.

I didn’t kill her, instead, I demoted her to become Rogue, severing her ties to any pack. Leaving her alive was already a mercy far beyond what she deserved.

Stella transformed back to her human form, collapsing onto the floor. Her face was twisted with fury and disbelief as she roared, “Caden, why? Why do you treat Rosaline so well? She’s nothing but a b*tch! Mark my words, one day, she’ll destroy you!”

Even now, she showed not an ounce of regret in her voice.

The werewolf warrior arrived soon after, swiftly escorting Stella out of the room.

Everything that happened here had been live–streamed. Public opinion on the Internet had completely reversed.

At last, Rosaline was free.

“Rosaline, are you alright?” Jasper asked, his voice tinged with concern. When Stella attempted to attack Rosaline earlier, he turned into his wolf form, but it was too late in comparison to me.

“She’s alright,” I said, stepping forward to wrap my arm around Rosaline’s shoulders. My cold gaze met his, sharp and unyielding.

-Rosaline gently pushed me away and murmured, “Thank you for earlier.”

I lifted an eyebrow. “No need to thank me.”

Caden, have you lost your mind? That was so dangerous! What if Stella had bitten you?” Queenie stormed over, shoving Rosaline aside to plant herself firmly by my side.

Rosaline’s expression darkened, her usual calm now tinged with frost. She stared Queenie down and said sharply, “Queenie, weren’t you the one who kept insisting you saw me push Stella into the water? What explanation do you have now?”

Queenie froze for a moment, biting her lip as a flicker of unease crossed her face. “Maybe … maybe I was mistaken,” she muttered.

“You and your classmates both saw it wrong? If I remember correctly, giving false testimony is a crime. At
