Third Person’s POV
Lycan Erasmus hadn't anticipated unearthing such shocking evidence.

He'd assumed Madison's mansion harbored only the venomous familial disputes typical of noble houses.
Concerned by the excesses, he'd intended to intervene but hesitated to overstep by directly ordering an
investigation into Madison’s internal affairs. Hence, he’d nudged events forward on the Moon Newborn Festival.
Truth was, he wasn’t certain if anyone would act against Madison’s mansion tonight. Lately, rumors had run
rampant.
Salleged Dwight’s breeder was Madison's bastard daughter.
Erasmus had probed Madison’s mansion and Hunt, uncovering Hunt's ties to the Barker family in the capital.
It turned out a Barker she-wolf had visited the Blackthorn Pack multiple times.
These fragmented clues didn’t paint a clear picture.
But fate wove a curious tapestry—Madison’s mansion, as usual, had invited numerous priests for the Moon
Newborn Festival rituals; and Craig had arrived in the capital just before the festival.
Erasmus also recalled the past discord between Adelaide and Madison, speculating that Madison's private
vendetta might entangle the Barker family.
He didn’t know Adelaide intimately, but he knew her for a just and discerning woman.
If the Barkers had appealed to her and she already held a grudge against Madison, it was plausible she might
intervene.
Most critically, the abduction of Cassius’s family had occurred at this juncture.
If Madison was indeed behind it, Adelaide would undoubtedly act.
These were Erasmus’s speculations, but he hadn't expected the search to reveal weapons, armor, and a
stockpile of gunpowder.

Lycan Erasmus said to Cyrus, “You may leave now, Cyrus. Lance and | need to speak privately
Cyrus rose and bowed. “I'll take my leave then.”
“Walk safely, Cyrus,” Lance said with a wave.
Cyrus glanced at Lance, said nothing, and left.
After Fabian closed the study door, Lycan Erasmus looked at Lance and said, “Sit. Tonight, let's speak plainly as
brothers.”
Lance sat and replied, “Yes.”
Lycan Erasmus fixed him with a piercing gaze and asked bluntly, “Tell me, were the infiltrators tonight your
doing?”
Lance immediately rose and knelt on one knee. “Yes. | accept responsibility.”
Lycan Erasmus’s expression was stern, his tone accusatory. “You knew of her treasonous intentions? Why didn’t
you inform me? Do you think | wouldn't believe you?”
Lance inwardly winced. Without evidence, how could Lycan Erasmus have believed Madison was plotting
treason?
If he’d spoken up earlier, he’d likely have been rebuked for absurdity.
But he held his tongue and solemnly explained, “I hadn't uncovered her treasonous intent. Tonight's operation
wasn't premeditated-it was a sudden move.”
“The Cassius family’s abduction prompted our suspicions. When both Cassius’s mate and children vanished, we
began to suspect Madison's involvement.”
He paused, noting Lycan Erasmus didn’t interrupt, and continued, “We intercepted a she-wolf on my return
journey from rescuing the Eugenius Team at the Southern Border.”

“So, you plotted the Moon Newborn Festival operation?” Lycan Erasmus’s eyes turned cold. “But you just said it
wasn’t premeditated.”
