Chapter 294
Third Person’s POV
Fintstied
After that came a young wolf, barely grown, clutching a black-and-white photograph of a small
cat.
“Miss Ward,” he said, voice trembling but steady,
“you tortured and killed our family’s kitten. When my parents found out, they were terrified you’d ruin us if the truth spread. You forced them to resign and leave the capital. They’ve lived in obscurity and despair in our homeland ever since.”
He lowered the photo, eyes red.
“Today, I brought our kitten to witness how this ends for you.”
More figures stepped forward.
A poor student Celestine had bullied in secondary school-his face marred by a long, vicious
scar.
The elderly parents of a young man she had forcibly taken from another’s mate, toyed with, then discarded-leaving him spiraling into depression.
One by one.
Case after case.
Each more horrifying than the last.
The violence Celestine’s biological father had once inflicted upon her-she had twisted and unleashed upon countless innocent wolves.
Some truths came from Dariusz.
Others were unearthed by Aysel and Magnus during their investigation.
Celestine always chose her prey carefully.
Families greedy enough to silence themselves.
Or bloodlines too weak to resist an Alpha’s adopted daughter backed by Moonvale wealth.
Her crimes had been buried beneath gold, reputation, and years of false virtue.

Now, more than a dozen victims and grieving kin stood in a line before her-like a tribunal beneath the Moon-looming over Celestine as she collapsed on the ground, powerless.
She screamed.
Backed away.
Howled like a cornered beast.
Aysel Vale.
It was Aysel who had brought them.
Not Dariusz.
Never Dariusz.
If Fenrir’s charge of stolen pack intelligence could still be silenced with money, then these revelations-laid bare before witnesses from every major Pack-would condemn her to rot behind iron bars for the rest of her life.
She was finished.
Completely finished.
Someone tore off her veil.
Blood smeared her face, wild and unrecognizable-but no one pitied her. Every gaze burned with loathing.
Celestine’s evil had crossed the line of what even wolves would tolerate.
The officers stepped forward grimly, accepting the thick stack of evidence Jackson handed over.
“Miss Ward,” one said coldly,
“you will come with us.”
“No-no! I won’t go back!” she shrieked.
Memories of prison-ostracization, pack violence, the suffocating loss of freedom-ignited terror within her. She shoved past the officers and crawled toward Luna Evelyn, collapsing to her knees.
“Mother! Mother, save me! Please-tell Aysel to let me go! I was wrong, I know I was wrong! I’ll be a good daughter again. I’ll honor you-please, help me!”

She sobbed, dignity shredded.
Luna Evelyn’s eyes filled with tears as she flung Celestine’s hands away.
“You are not my daughter!”
The Moonvale Pack had not known of her crimes-but the power and wealth they had given her had been the fangs she used to maul others.
And Aysel-
Aysel had been one of her victims.
Eyes red with rage, Luna Evelyn snarled,
“If I had known, I would have let you die alongside Yuna Ward. Adopting you regret of my life.”
is the greatest
Celestine was shoved to the ground.
Despair broke her.
She laughed hysterically.
“And what are you?” she screamed.
“Luna Evelyn-you’re the biggest whore of all! You stole the man my mother loved, stole her wealth and life, then played savior!”
“You’re a fool! Did you know? Aysel’s leg-I did that. I wanted her to never dance again. I wanted your daughter to lose to me forever!”
“And your
mother-hah! Aysel was right. I let that old woman die. I wanted her gone!”
“And you-cherishing the wolf who killed your own mother like treasure-how stupid can you
be?!”
“And Alpha Remus-not believing his own daughter when she tried to avenge her grandmother! You whipped her, locked her away, sent her to be ‘treated’-what a den of fools!”
Smack.
Alpha Remus’s palm struck her face.
His body shook violently, finger trembling as rage stole his words.

Celestine lunged to kick him-
-but Lykos restrained her instantly, eyes blazing.
Then Fenrir’s panicked shout rang out.
“Mother!”
Luna Evelyn collapsed.
Chaos erupted.
And in that instant-crash-
Another bottle smashed against Celestine’s head.
Fanised
The broken glass tore from her eye down to her jaw, leaving a vicious, blood-soaked gash.
It was Damon.
Hearing her words about Aysel, the Alpha-already deranged by betrayal-snapped once more and attacked again in full view of the hall.
Screams erupted.
As Celestine collapsed, bleeding anew, the battle-ruined wedding finally came to its end.
Pack patrol wagons and ambulances howled into the night.
Alpha Blackwood’s hands shook.
“Control the narrative,” he rasped.
