I shot a venomous glare at Rosaline standing on the stage, an uncontrollable surge of jealousy twisting inside me.

For so long. I had assumed Caden would be getting engaged to Heidi–but in the end, it was Rosaline.

I refused to accept it.

How could an Omega like her be chosen instead of me?

A primal rage boiled within me, and I wished I could shift into my wolf form that very moment, leap onto the stage, and rip Rosaline apart until there was nothing left of her.

Caden was mine—the most exceptional heir in the entire Werewolf Continent—and no one had the right to take him from me!

“Aunt Eleanor, just look at Caden–he’s completely under Rosaline’s spell, that cunning vixen.” I cast a sideways glance at Aunt Eleanor, unable to resist stirring the pot. “If his fiancée had been Heidi, a mere bar singer, getting rid of her would have been effortless.

“But Rosaline is an entirely different threat. That Omega isn’t just shrewd and ruthless–she’s also the powerhouse behind Starplay Entertainment. After everything we’ve put her through, if she actually ends up marrying Caden, don’t you think we’ll be in serious trouble?”

After hearing what I said, Aunt Eleanor’s face darkened, her eyes burning with hatred as she shot a venomous glare at Rosaline standing on the stage. She turned to me and declared, “Queenie, don’t worry. I will never allow that Omega, Rosaline, to become my son’s wife.”

“But even Mr. Richard is supporting her,” I replied, anxiety gnawing at me.

After everything that happened today, it’s obvious that the Alpha of the Eclipse Pack was already aware of what Caden and Rosaline had planned.

Otherwise, why would the Alpha approve Caden and Heidi’s engagement when he clearly has feelings for Rosaline?

“That’s not something you need to concern yourself with,” Aunt Eleanor said through clenched teeth. “I have my own methods.”

At that moment, a thought struck me–back when Caden had imprisoned us, Aunt Eleanor had made a single phone call, and just like that, Mr. Richard had commanded Caden to set us free.

That could only mean Aunt Eleanor had some kind of hold over the Alpha.
