Amanda’s POV:

It was past midnight by the time we got back to Reeves Manor.

Every light in the house was on. Dalton waited right by the front doors. The second I stepped out, he came forward fast, his face tight with worry. “What happened? Was that gunshot connected to you?”

I walked straight into the living room and pulled the door shut behind me. My voice dropped to a near whisper. “Dalton, this wasn’t random. It was planned. Theo heard it from security. The shot came from the VIP box on the second floor. Someone aimed it.”

Dalton’s expression went cold. He waved the staff off and led me into the study. “I already had the house security link up with Mooncrest’s team. They recovered a bullet at the scene. Just arrived.”

He reached into the drawer and pulled out a clear evidence bag. Inside was a short, thick bullet that shimmered cold under the light. “Take a look.”

I took the bag. My fingers brushed over the plastic. The bullet inside was chunkier than standard rounds, and carved into the base was a tiny, sharp-edged ice crystal.

I knew that mark. Glacier Pack’s custom rounds. Only core members ever got access to them.

My chest tightened. One name hit me straight away.

Alice’s voice cut through my thoughts, filled with rage. “It’s that piece of trash Mephisto! No one else would have the balls to pull something like this right now!”

“It’s Mephisto,” I said, setting the bag on the desk. My tone didn’t waver. “My dear cousin’s never stopped drooling over the Alpha position.”

Dalton froze mid-sip, his hand stiff around the cup. “He’s the one who stirred up the council of elders. Said you couldn’t lead because you’re a woman, right?”

“That’s him.” I sank into the chair. My fingers rubbed the armrest without thinking. The past slammed into

me all at once.

After my parents died, Glacier Pack fell apart. Mephisto saw his opportunity. He was the only man left in the family, and he played the elders like fools. Said a woman couldn’t lead. Convinced them to back him as the new heir.

But he forgot one thing. My grandfather didn’t just teach me how to fight with a wolf spirit.

When it came to tactics, Mephisto’s little schemes at the council of elders were a joke. I picked them apart with barely a sentence.

When it came to allies, I’d been by my grandfather’s side for years. Every division leader already saw me as the Alpha heiress.

Back then, even with Alice’s unstable state, she still managed to help me shut down his rage when it

mattered most.

At the final vote, he lost every single ballot. His face turned the color of swamp water.

“That moron probably heard I ‘vanished,’ bought into the gossip that I was some cripple with no wolf spirit, and when he saw me laying low inside Mooncrest Pack, he must’ve thought I was finished.”

I let out a sharp laugh. A cold glint flickered through my eyes. “He’s probably betting on the chaos from the Mooncrest Cup. Either he planned to get rid of me quietly, or pin everything on Samson and trigger a full-blown clash between Eclipse Pack and Mooncrest Pack. That way, he could scoop up the leftovers.”

Dalton nodded. “That sounds exactly like something Mephisto would pull. He’s petty. He’s reckless. But I didn’t think he’d be dumb enough to fire a shot on Mooncrest Pack’s land.”

“He’s not bold, just a fool.” I pressed my fingers against my brow. Right then, a warm force stirred in my

elixir field. Alice.

think She stretched inside my mind, her wolf spirit form humming with strength. “Amanda, don’t you we’re syncing up more lately? When I tapped into my power just now, your senses went sharper too.”

I paused and focused.

Sure enough, I picked up the sound of footsteps just outside the study. Even the soft chirping in the garden came through crisp.

We’d been through back-to-back hell these past weeks. Alice’s spirit had finally steadied. Our link was getting stronger. My body had become sharper too. Faster. More powerful.

“Dalton,” I stood up, my voice steady, “I’m heading back to Glacier Pack.”

Dalton looked stunned. “Now? If Mephisto’s already made a move, he probably rigged the whole place. You’d be walking into a trap.”

“That’s why I have to go,” I said. I walked over to the window and stared at the moonlight outside. “Glacier Pack belonged to my grandfather. I’m not letting someone like Mephisto tear it apart. If he’s ready to fire a bullet, he’s hiding more than that. He might even be tied to the people who kidnapped me back then. I need to know.”

Alice’s voice flared with energy. “Damn right we do. Let’s go smash his face in. Show him we’re not the ones he should’ve messed with!”

I sucked in a breath and curled my fists tight.

“I won’t do anything reckless,” I said as I turned back to Dalton. “Theo’s already digging into the VIP box records. Once we have solid proof that Mephisto was behind this, I’ll make my move. And when I do, I won’t just drag him into the light-I’ll settle everything he left in the dark.”

Dalton held my gaze, then nodded. “Alright. You’ve got my support. Whatever you need from the manor, it’s yours.”

The moonlight poured through the window and touched my skin like frost. In my head, I saw Glacier

Pack’s snowy ridges and endless forests. Mephisto, everything you owe me, everything you took from Grandpa, from our home-I’m coming for all of it.
