Sean’s face instantly darkened. Inheritance rights to the Shadowmoon Pack? How dare she even say that on loud?
What she really wanted, he feared, was to become the adopted daughter of the Miguel family. Once his son was gone, her position would only rise higher.
If that was her aim, then maybe she didn’t even want his son to live.
After all, if the deal went through, and Henry died, this little omega would still inherit and run the mighty Shadowmoon Pack. And Sean? He’d probably be stuck following her around, cleaning up her messes.
“Little girl, who gave you the guts to come in here talking nonsense?”
Sean’s voice was a growl, his wolf fangs faintly visible–he was on the brink of shifting.
“Do you even know what kind of virus Henry’s infected with? The top wolf medics in the region have all thrown in the towel. And you? A barely eighteen–year–old omega? You think you can save him? Ridiculous!”
Alpha–level dominance surged from Sean’s body. Even retired from his post, his presence was still razor- sharp.
But Aubrey didn’t flinch. Smiling, she brushed imaginary dust from her skirt and replied lightly.
“After the alpha got infected, he had a fever for three days, right? Then his wolf started weakening. By now, his whole body must be in constant pain. He won’t make it past a month. And the disease–extremely contagious, isn’t it? I’m sure those helpless wolf medics have already told you all this, haven’t they, Mr. Miguel?” Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ƒind ηøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access s of novels early and in the highest quality.
Sean’s pupils contracted slightly.
“Oh, and by the way, I’m the one who cracked the T–Flu. Since I could solve that in record time, tell me- who else in the world is more qualified to treat an alpha than I am?”
Another bomb dropped.
Aubrey stood tall, radiating a calm, unshakable confidence. Her presence was sharp as a blade.
Her delicate chin tilted upward, and even her faint smile carried a forceful impact.
Sean couldn’t help but be persuaded.
He had heard all about the T–Flu. Even top–tier medic Biford once said it would take him at least a year to find a cure. Yet this omega girl had managed to lead a team to develop the antidote in a fraction of that
time?
There was no reason to doubt her–lying about something like this was too easy to expose . Which meant she really did have the skills to back it up. And if that was the case , she was worth the gamble .
“Fine. I accept your deal . The truth is … Henry only has about a week left . ”

Sean exhaled deeply, his aggression dissipating. “I don’t know what happened–he was doing fine, but yesterday, he suddenly took a turn for the worse. He was supposed to have a month left. Now… just one week. Do you still think you can save him?”
Hearing that Henry’s condition worsened just yesterday, Aubrey frowned. She had a suspicion–but didn’t voice it.
Instead, she nodded calmly. “Yes.”
Her poise gave Sean a flicker of hope. No one would gamble their life like this without having something solid to stand on.
“There’s one more thing,” Sean added, brow furrowed. “There’s a detail about the virus you should know. It’s true that it’s highly contagious–but only to omega–class werewolves. Gammas and Betas are safe as long as they don’t come into contact with Henry’s bodily fluids.”
“What…?”
Aubrey froze for a moment, surprised. So Alpha Henry had contracted a weakened strain of the K–Virus?
In her memories, the K–Virus had swept across the continent in her past life–even gamma and beta werewolves hadn’t been spared.
But this new information made sense. It wasn’t supposed to show up this early in the timeline. Ulrich must have jumped the gun, releasing an incomplete version of the virus.
That actually worked in her favor. She had already started researching ways to neutralize K–Virus before the T–Flu outbreak even began.
Aubrey took a deep breath. “Alright. Then I’ll go see the alpha now.”
