Rosalie was right in the middle of the sound wave, but she didn’t even flinch. She stood tall and fearlessly stared at Harris.
The tiger’s huge eye glared at her for a while. Then Harris shifted back into his human form. His face was still terrifying.
He gave her a creepy smile. “I don’t know why a female like you is suddenly out here all alone.
“But I’ll tell you this-you’re about to die.”
Rosalie stayed quiet. Harris looked down at her small baby bump and sneered, “I see you’re pregnant. Better say goodbye to your kid right now.”
He was basically cursing her baby. Any other female would have been crying by now. But Rosalie just frowned and said calmly, “Ever heard the saying that villains die because they talk too much?”
Harris wasn’t expecting that. He asked without thinking, “What?”
“I’m saying it’s not going to be me who dies,” Rosalie said. “It’s going to be you.”
The empty socket where Harris’s eye used to be started to throb with pain, making him irritated. Holding his head, he stepped toward Rosalie, hissing through his clenched teeth, “You’re just a female. How dare you talk back?! I’ll eat you right now!”
Rosalie didn’t panic. When Harris was about four or five steps away, she pulled something from her pocket and threw it at his face.
Harris sneezed as the fine powder hit him. Then a strange, addictive smell spread through the air.
His cloudy eyes instantly softened. He sniffed the air hungrily, completely distracted. He didn’t even notice Rosalie quietly backing away.
Suddenly, another tiger rushed in from the side and tackled Harris to the ground. Harris roared in anger, then he seemed to snap back to his senses.
The tiger pinning him down was covered in blood and sounded frantic. “Harris, we’ve been set up!”
Harris snapped out of his daze instantly. His eyes turned bloodshot as he stared at the the woods where Rosalie had vanished.

Suddenly, Rosalie stopped walking. Her eyes widened in horror.
Julien was there, covered in blood as if he’d just been dipped in it.
Looking closer, his body was shaking. Under Rosalie’s steady gaze, he said, trembling, “Matriarch, something went wrong.”
The moment she saw Julien here, Rosalie knew the plan had failed. Julien was supposed to be across the forest, dealing with the beastmen they lured away, not here.
Rosalie supported him and helped him into a hidden spot.
Her face stayed calm as she wiped the blood off Julien’s face, not caring that her hands were stained.
Once the blood was cleared, she could finally see his bright blue eyes again.
She could tell he had just survived a brutal fight. She squeezed his hand to calm him down.
“Julien, tell me what happened.”
Julien slowly answered, “Harris somehow brought several more beastmen with him. It completely ruined our plan.”
Rosalie’s expression darkened. Her strategy was about luring Harris’s people away so they could take them down one by one.
She hadn’t expected Harris to have a secret backup squad.
“What about Gael and Elijah?”
Julien shook his head. “There were too many of them. We couldn’t beat them. Gael and Elijah are dragging them around, buying time. I ran here to warn you.”
Rosalie called out, “Cameron! Come out!”
The branches shook, and Cameron jumped down with Leon right behind him.
Julien was shocked to see Leon here when he was supposed to still be unconscious.
