Lycan Erasmus had heard about the birthday party incident, but he wasn’t sure if he knew the full story.
Had it really been that many days already? Was today’s palace visit still about that?
“Show her in,” Lycan Erasmus said.
Beta Fabian hesitated and said, “Madison is with Lycan Clarissa. She asked for you to come over and also summoned Priscilla.”
“Me, go to her?”
He offered a faint smile, though his eyes remained cold. “Well, as a junior, I ought to pay respects to my senior.”
Beta Fabian bowed and ushered him out of the study, then instructed the guards, “Prepare the carriage.”
The distance from the study to the harem was considerable, and walking in this heat was far from ideal.
Beta Fabian invited him into the carriage and quietly said, “I hear that at the birthday party, Miss Davidson mentioned Madison once gifted Airella a silver wolf–head statue with the ancient werewolf script ‘Eternal Night Lone Wolf engraved on the base. It does sound rather unsettling.”
“I’ve heard about it,” Lycan Erasmus’s expression darkened, even the sunlight couldn’t lighten his mood. “If it’s true, she’s unworthy of being a Lycan princess and doesn’t deserve the favor my grandfather showed her.”
Beta Fabian said, “Perhaps it’s due to old grudges.”
“Old grudges?” Lycan Erasmus recalled some rumors. “You mean her failed attempt to become Alpha Bentley’s mate?”
“Exactly. That incident caused quite a stir back then. Madison has harbored resentment ever since. Even after mating Hunt, while they appeared amicable, their relationship has been anything but harmonious behind the scenes.”
Lycan Erasmus stared at Beta Fabian’s neck mark. Beta Fabian quickly lowered his head. “I’ve overstepped,” he said.
“The Davidson family’s affairs seem to be quite familiar to you,” Lycan Erasmus’s pheromones carried the royal musk, pressing against Fabian’s wolf ears.
Beta Fabian, still anxious, said, “I was just thinking about Alpha Bentley’s descendants… Now only Miss Davidson remains. It’s rather sorrowful. After all, Alpha Bentley and his sons sacrificed themselves for the kingdom.”
Lycan Erasmus’s wolf eyes reddened. He let out a soft sigh, his eyes filled with grief. “It’s a loss for our kingdom. The thought pains me every time.”

Beta Fabian sighed regretfully but dared not say more.

Lycan Erasmus had special feelings for the Davidson family, but such sentiments could only be offered by him, not demanded.
When Miss Davidson first entered the palace to request the dissolution of her mate bond, he was patient. But the second time, he grew impatient, even feeling annoyed before she could even explain.
Now, those feelings had become more complicated.
However, if Alpha Bentley’s matters weren’t brought up, he might prefer to simplify or settle things, even if it meant slighting Miss Davidson.
Yet mentioning them too much could also be problematic. Beta Fabian knew he had to tread carefully.
Upon arriving at Clarissa’s palace, he found Clarissa seated on the central sofa, her brow slightly furrowed.
Madison sat on the left sofa, her expression arrogant and icy.
Priscilla sat on the right, appearing somewhat restrained and cautious.
Lycan Erasmus entered, greeted Clarissa and Priscilla first. Clarissa nodded slightly, while Priscilla stood to curtsy before sitting again.
Lycan Erasmus turned to Madison. Seeing her stern expression, he jested, “You seldom visit us without reason. What brings you here today?”
Madison, noting Lycan Erasmus’s lack of customary deference, was displeased.
But as the Lycan King, he was beyond her reproach.
With a cold demeanor, she declared, “Lycan Erasmus, I’m here to demand you punish someone.”
“Oh?” Lycan Erasmus watched as Beta Fabian brought over a chair. He sat down, accepted a cup of coffee from an omega, took a sip, and then asked, “I wonder who is so bold as to anger you so deeply that you’ve come to the palace seeking my retribution.”
Madison spat out a name through gritted teeth, “Adelaide!”
