My Alpha Wants Two Lunas? I'M Done (Laila and Holt) novel Chapter 19

Third–person POV:

The bards showing up to apologize had naturally been arranged by Estelle.

Under Samson’s watchful eye, killing those bards outright would attract far too much attention. But if she didn’t pay them and send them to apologize to Laila, they would certainly start causing trouble. Once they did, her name would inevitably come up.

Though she was furious and grinding her teeth in frustration, Estelle had no choice but to pay another 30 thousand and have someone deliver the money to them.

Once the bards got the money, they marched in a grand procession to the entrance of the Silvermoon Pack’s Alpha den.

Such a dramatic public apology immediately attracted half the werewolves in the territory, including the ones who had come to do business with the Silvermoon Pack.

Faulkner had deliberately arranged for the scene to take place outside the main gate of the wolf den. He wanted everyone to see it.

The bards stood in a row, shouting and admitting they had been greedy for money and had spread fabricated rumors to smear Laila.

Mixed within the crowd were people Samson had specifically arranged to stir things up. They began shouting questions.

“Was it Jenna from the Blackrock Pack who paid you?”

“Was it Jenna, or was it Estelle?”

“Hey, you can’t talk nonsense like that! You’ll die if you offend Estelle!”

“But it’s the truth. I heard that at Estelle’s birthday banquet, Laila even gave her a painting by Mr. Green. They accused it of being fake and tore it up on the spot!”

“By the Moon, didn’t Estelle say she loves fine art the most? Mr. Green’s paintings aren’t something you can just buy with money.”

“I heard Jenna was the one who tore it. She’s the Luna of the Blackrock Pack—a long–established pack. How could she not even recognize an authentic painting by Mr. Green?”

“Maybe Blackrock Pack only agreed to marry her because of her status. I heard they aren’t fate mates.”

When Margaret arrived at the entrance of Laila’s wolf den, those were the exact words she heard.

Her vision went dark with anger.
