Chapter 181: A Sudden Change in Leadership

A shocking piece of news swept through the werewolf community.

Alistair Gerymoore, head of the Gerymoore Clan, had sent a formal letter to the King of Werewolves, accusing Eleanor Raynor and the Raynor Clan of unjustly disrupting their business interests and political standing within the kingdom. He had even provided several pieces of evidence to support his claim.

Due to the recent holy duel, most werewolves were already aware of the rising hostility between the two clans... many had either witnessed the duel firsthand or heard detailed accounts. They were also familiar with the sudden, dramatic shifts in the kingdom’s political landscape. Now that the Gerymoore Clan had formally lodged a complaint, it was easy for the public to connect the dots between what had once seemed like unrelated events.

Alistair Gerymoore had gone personally to the King, pleading for intervention and fair judgement. He made no effort to conceal his visit to Brontes Island. The transparency of his presence added an air of credibility to his accusations. Rumours spread quickly, and people were stunned by how the Raynor Clan had behaved... quietly dismantling the Gerymoore Clan’s influence across the kingdom while the public’s attention was on the duel.

What shocked them even more was the merciless precision behind it all... especially when a new name emerged at the heart of it: Eleanor Elizabeth Raynor.

Until recently, most of the supernatural community had been only vaguely aware of the Raynor Clan’s young heiress. Fiona Raynor was still the recognised head of the clan, and Eleanor had largely remained a name without weight. But now, with Alistair’s formal accusations aimed not at Fiona, but Eleanor herself, interest in her surged throughout the supernatural world.

People began investigating... and what they found stunned them. Eleanor had risen swiftly in recent years, emerging from relative obscurity to wield significant power and influence.

As that revelation took root, another bombshell exploded from within the Gerymoore family.

Citing Alistair’s impulsive and reckless behaviour, the Elders’ Council of the Gerymoore Clan dismissed him from his position as clan head. In his place, Grand Elder George Gerymoore would act as interim head until a successor could be chosen.

Upon assuming leadership, George personally contacted Fiona Raynor to apologise for Alistair’s actions. He also requested a formal meeting with both Fiona and Eleanor, expressing his intent to visit the Raynor Estate in Manchester. Interestingly, Fiona agreed to the meeting... but made no promise that Eleanor would be present.

The call, made in front of the entire Gerymoore Clan, was inevitably leaked, fuelling even more discussion among the werewolves.
