Third Person’s POV

The wolves living near the southern border despised the Dragon Ash Kingdom’s wolves,
They’d invaded packs, seized territories, and slaughtered numerous wolves.
To add to the atrocities, they’d stolen pack properties and abducted many Omegas.
So, when these wolves saw Alpha Lance’s announcement, numerous pack guards and exiled wolves flocked to join his cause.
Adelaide had learned combat skills at the camp since childhood and had heard many battle stories from Alpha Bentley and her brothers.
Sometimes, her brothers would solemnly warn her of the dangers of real battle, which differed greatly from school sparring.
Despite reading extensively, she had no actual combat experience–everything, was theoretical,
She asked Tommy curiously, “Has Alpha Lance requested backup from Lycan Erasmus?”
“He’s reported to Lycan Erasmus, but we don’t know when reinforcements and food supplies will arrive. Alpha Lance says we must gather more wolf warriors first,” Tommy replied,
“How many have we gathered so far?” Adelaide asked,
“Several thousand,” Tommy said without hesitation,
For them, Alpha Bentley’s daughter was trustworthy, especially after Adelaide had traveled from the capital to the southern border in five days to deliver important news–something not every werewolf could do.
Adelaide was shocked.
In just three or four days, they’d recruited several thousand warriors.
At this rate, they might gather tens of thousands before the Western Tribes‘ army arrived.
However, these wolves lacked battlefield experience,
Seeming to sense Adelaide’s concern, Tommy said, “The recruited warriors have begun training. which has left the Gammas very busy”
Adelaide quickly asked, “Is there anything I can help with?”
“Yes!” Tommy nodded. “This morning, a few people arrived looking for you. Alpha Lance is verifying their identities. Why not go see? They might be friends of yours”

quickly!”
Tommy led her toward the plaza at the camp’s rear.

From afar, Adelaide spotted several familiar figures–her old friends from the Warscar Training Camp.
Her fingertips glowed silver, wolf–claws flickering as she sprinted over, shouting, “Avery! Halbert! Angela! Paisley!”
The four looked up to see a figure charging toward them.
Avery instinctively began shifting, his arm swelling thrice its size, covered in gray wolf fur.
His fingers sprouted sharp claws, swinging at the oncoming figure.
Adelaide sidestepped, her wolf–claws colliding with his wolf–claws, sparks flying.
The two darted and leaped across the grass, their silver–clawed shadows intertwining, startling the surrounding wolf warriors–they’d never witnessed such fierce close–quarters combat.
Soon, Avery’s arm returned to human form. He stepped back, a smile playing on his lips. “Your reflexes have slowed, Adelaide.”
“Your speed’s increased by a third since the training camp,” Adelaide observed, eyeing the broader–shouldered youth.
Gray fur dotted his ears, revealing a newly inked wolf totem. “And… you’ve finally completed your first shift?”
Avery Watson was the sole Alpha heir of the Ancient Moon Pack. Having passed the training camp ritual a day later than Adelaide, he was always teased by her as “the
younger one“.
At that moment, Halbert, Angela, and Paisley swarmed around her, bombarding her with questions.
“We heard you mated with the Bloodmoon Pack’s Alpha? Is it true?”
“Your mate is with Ulrik? That Alpha known as the ‘Executioner‘? ”
“Our instructors forbade us from leaving the camp. We could only sneak around to gather info about you–your instructor was like an enraged giant bear, utterly terrifying!”
“Adelaide, why did you choose to become a Luna of the pack? With your temper, how could you possibly submit to any Alpha’s pheromones?”
Halbert, from the Rose Pack, usually wore a kind smile on his round cheeks but now frowned as if contemplating a philosophical puzzle.
Angela, also from the Rose Pack, had wine–red hair tied into a sleek ponytail and wore rose–gold

Paisley Stephens had the most distinctive background–she was the only daughter of the Crimson Flame Pack’s Alpha. Our wolf kingdom’s arms trade in the west was virtually controlled by their pack’s enterprises.
