Velda gave a dry laugh. “What can I do? Most of the wolf generals here were once subordinates of her father. If she wants to gain military merits on the battlefield, how many will go out of their way to help her? I don’t dare to offend her.”

Ulrik nodded.

He had seen Adelaide’s fighting skills, but on the battlefield, skill alone wasn’t enough.

In such a melee, her skill could only help her kill a few more enemies.

How long had Adelaide been at the southern border?

Even if she had killed enemies in battle, it was impossible for her to have been promoted to Silver Claw Gamma so quickly in such a major war.

There must be some falsification involved. But Alpha Lance was willing to support her, and Ulrik and Velda had no recourse.

“If we can’t fight her, can’t we at least avoid her?” Ulrik said with a mix of helplessness and melancholy.

Velda sneered, “Why should we avoid her? My merits were hard–earned. What is she?”

“What are you planning to do, Velda?” Ulrik asked.

“I won’t do anything.” Velda said and turned to leave.)

Ulrik’s nose twitched, but he sensed no pheromone fluctuations.

However, three days later, discontent began to spread among the wolf warriors who had come to support the southern border with Ulrik.

Rumors about Adelaide spread like an epidemic through the camp.

The warriors gnashed their teeth and whispered that Alpha Bentley’s daughter had become a Silver Claw Gamma, relying on her father and brothers‘ merits, without ever participating in a formal battle.

Velda’s wolf warriors kept stirring up emotions.

They said, “If you want to rely on bloodline, you might as well stay in the capital as an elegant lady. Why come to the battlefield to compete for merits with us? We risk our lives to defend the nation, only for someone who does nothing to become a general. It’s unfair!”

“It’s said that Alpha Lance is strict and fair in managing troops, but who would have thought he would favor her and grant her such significant merits for nothing? What’s the point of us fighting

“The Southern Border is in a dire situation. We’ve been rushing here without rest, with many wolf warriors not getting a moment’s respite, traveling day and night. Velda endured the pain of her old injuries flaring up, unwilling to use the military doctor’s medicine, worried about shortages at the front and willing to suffer in silence.”

“Is that so? When Velda arrived here, Alpha Lance reprimanded her, saying she was jealous of Adelaide, and handed over the Ironthorn Army to Adelaide’s command. A she–wolf driven out by her own pack is now in charge of the undefeated Ironthorn Army. If this gets out, won’t it be a laughingstock for our kingdom?”

“Exactly! Velda has established great merits at the Bloodscar Border with only three hundred wolves. Now Adelaide, promoted by Alpha Lance, is even higher in rank than her.”

“What’s the point of all ́this hardship? Are we just stepping stones for others?”

Such rhetoric spread like poison, even causing ripples within the Ironthorn Army.

Despite the warriors‘ fear of Lance’s authority, they began to resist Adelaide’s orders during training, eyeing the temporary mark on the back of her neck with contempt.

Adelaide and her team, having focused on training plans for days, hadn’t noticed the rumors among the reinforcements.

Adelaide was puzzled by the Ironthorn Army’s lack of cooperation.

When Alpha Lance had brought her there that day, the Ironthorn Army had shouted their obedience loud enough to deafen everyone.

So, Adelaide put the training on hold and had Halbert and the others look into what had happened in the past few days.

Halbert kicked open the tent door, his wolf claws clutching a crumpled anonymous leaflet. “Look at these despicable words! They say Paisley is your Omega and that Avery and I are your ‘little lackeys‘!”

Paisley and the others were fuming with rage.

Paisley’s whip cracked against the table, sulfur pheromones erupting. “How dare they speak of me? I’m an Alpha! Should I cut off their weapon supplies?”

Angela was equally enraged. “These scoundrels deserve a taste of my wolf’s claw!”
