[Edward’s Perspective.]

We had arrived back at New Moon Tribe and Rose was still asleep. I carried her soft little body back to the room, placed her on the large bed, and went downstairs with Patrick for the Alpha conference. When we entered, I saw that the Council of Elders, Alphas, and Betas were already seated.

After a while, I understood why the Alpha conference had been called ahead of time. It was because Alex had petitioned the Council of Elders to accuse me of biting him. His neck, hands, and feet were all wrapped in ridiculous bandages. If there were any more, I would have suggested that he go directly to the coffin to be with the mummy.

“Alpha Edward, do you admit that the injuries on Alex’s body were caused by you?” Elder Quinn spoke to me.

“Yes, I admit they were.”

“Do you want to kill him?”

“I did want to kill him at the beginning.”

I heard the participating Alpha and Betas exclaim and start to whisper to each other. Alex looked like he wanted to kill me.

“But if your mate was imprisoned and enslaved by New Moon Tribe for eight years and was almost violated by a piece of scum like Alex, I think you would also want to kill him.”

I heard another wave of surprised voices.

“I have no idea what you are talking about!” Alex roared in my direction from the other end of the round table, but I ignored him.

“Gentlemen, I have found my mate in New Moon Tribe. I believe that many people have witnessed it. What I want to say is that my mate, Rose, is a survivor of the massacre of Southern Wilderness Tribe. All her family members were killed by New Moon Tribe during that massacre. She was brought back to New Moon Tribe by Alpha Roger. For the next ten years, they treated her inhumanely. They beat and tortured her, making her suffer from hunger and abuse, as well as sleeping in the storeroom. This morning, she was almost beaten to death. However, Alex still did not let my mate go and tried to assault her right under my nose. According to my understanding, I don’t think the imprisonment, enslavement, or maiming a member of any tribe is allowed against one’s will.”

“What nonsense are you talking about! Rose is just an orphan that my father found at the border of the tribes. We have been treating her well for so many years!”

“Oh, really?” 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

Then, I saw an Omega maid enter the conference room to deliver drinks to everyone. I recognized her as one of the maids who had helped Sarah beat up my partner this morning. I gave Patrick a look, and he immediately understood.

Patrick got up and left his seat. He walked over to the female Omega maid and revealed his charming smile before gently asking, “My dear lady, although I also think that Rose is a wh*re, didn’t your Alpha tell you that it’s not good to beat up members of your own tribe?”

I glared at Patrick. The first half of his sentence made me very unhappy, but I knew that he was trying to make her sympathize with him.

“Beta, what kind of joke is this? Rose doesn’t deserve to be a member of our tribe. She’s a useless wh*re from Southern Wilderness Tribe. Even our Alpha beats her up.”

Patrick’s smile and humility made the maid forget herself and let her guard down. Although her voice wasn’t loud, I was sure that the few Alphas next to her had heard it. At the same time, I also felt anger and pain. No matter which society we existed in, there would always be a group of people who would gang up on others to hurt, humiliate, and trample on them just to satisfy their sense of superiority. This was no different from school violence in human society.

“What Alpha Edward said is true.” At this moment, Alpha Philip sitting two seats away from me stood up. The maids standing behind him were all dumbfounded. Philip was an Alpha of Mirror Lake Tribe, and he could be considered an old friend of mine. The few Alphas beside him nodded in agreement.

“Alpha Alex, how will you explain yourself?” asked the grand elder of the Council of Elders, Elder Liam personally. Elder Quinn, who had questioned me just now, didn’t say a word.

“Rose was brought into the tribe by my father. That’s what my father told me! I’ll investigate this matter and explain it to the Council of Elders later!” 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

When I heard that Alex wanted to shift the blame to his father, Roger, I was completely convinced. This was the legendary scammer. Roger was probably sneezing non-stop right now. I saw that some of the other Alphas had looks of disdain on their faces as well.

Given Alex’s quibbles and no further proof to continue the inquiry, we moved on to the next item on the agenda: the signing of a year’s worth of inter-ethnic relations between the various Alphas. The options were adversarial, neutral, and friendly. With this dramatic set-up, the agenda became much more beneficial to me. Out of the thirty-seven tribes that attended, four were neutral towards New Moon Tribe, one was friendly, and the remaining thirty-one listed New Moon Tribe as an adversary. This meant that they could fight New Moon Tribe under the right reasons, just as New Moon Tribe massacred Southern Wilderness Tribe. Obviously, I was one of the thirty-one, and this figure was only fifteen last year. As one of the largest werewolf tribes in America, none of the Alphas had a rival relationship with my tribe, except for Alex.

The meeting lasted several hours. Once it was over, I asked Patrick to get the car ready so that we could be out of here in half an hour. But when I returned to my room, I couldn’t find Rose anywhere..
