Defy The Alpha(s)

Chapter 549: Her Wolf

It was close to three in the morning by the time they finally retreated. Yet, despite being nestled between Roman’s and Griffin’s warm bodies, Violet couldn’t sleep. Her mind was far too restless.

Right now, she wasn’t just studying the North Pack but all four packs. Violet didn’t want to be a dead weight, not just for tomorrow’s mission, but for the future. She needed to know everything there was to learn about the packs—their strengths, their weaknesses, and their secrets

First was the West Pack who thrived on power through discipline and intellect. They were dominant, but their cold order could fracture under pressure.

Core Traits: Disciplined, militaristic, ambitious, cunning.

Economy and Focus: Corporate power, education, strategy, and law.

Culture: Patriarchal to the core, where men ruled and women were silenced. They value discipline and efficiency above all else.

Strengths: Brilliant tacticians, feared armies, and ruthless political players.

Weaknesses: Rigid gender hierarchy creates internal resentment.

Obsessive focus on order makes them paranoid and controlling.

Core Traits: Spiritual, resource-rich, hardworking but simple in outlook.

Economy & Focus: Agriculture, oil, minerals, forests, faith-driven society.
