Third Person’s POV
“I know what to do now. Thanks for the reminder,” Adelaide said with a smile.
Caldwell nodded and left.
Adelaide called Susan over and asked for a list of the omegas and servants around Priscilla, instructing her to keep it a secret from Priscilla and others.
Susan, clear–headed and alert when away from Priscilla, quickly grasped Adelaide’s intention.
Soon, Susan brought over the list, which detailed cach person’s palace name, original name, hometown. age, year of entering the palace, and the priest they had served under.
On the surface, the list seemed normal.
Only three had served other priests—Eleanor, Sophia, and Morgana.
Eleanor had served the old Lycan King’s favorite priest. After the priest’s death, Clarissa assigned Eleanor to Priscilla.
Sophia and Morgana had served another priest during the old Lycan King’s reign.
When that priest suddenly died of illness, the old Lycan King, in a rage, executed all his attendants except Sophia and Morgana, who had been assigned to care for the sick Priscilla by Clarissa.
Most others on the list were brought to the palace by Priscilla from her own pack.
Susan, Priscilla’s nanny who had raised her, was undoubtedly loyal.
The rest from Priscilla’s pack were mostly trustworthy.
Adelaide ordered extra surveillance on the three. Any unusual activity was to be reported immediately.
After the invitations were sent, some people began scheming.
Wanda specially called Sabrina to Madison’s manor, saying she would bring her to Priscilla’s birthday party.
Sabrina was reluctant. She harbored resentment towards Adelaide, the former Luna.
Why was Adelaide so lucky to become Lance’s mate and shine at the birthday party?
Sabrina didn’t want to see her glory.
But she didn’t dare refuse Wanda outright and said, “The Bloodmoon Pack hasn’t received an invitation from the Blackthorn Pack. Would it be inappropriate for me to go?”
Wanda laughed. “Invitations have also been sent to Madison Manor and the Glenveil Pack. Since I’m invited, I can bring anyone, I like.”

Sabrina forced a smile. “That makes sense, but…”
Wanda became impatient. “Do you still want to become Lance’s breeder? Tomorrow, I’ll create an opportunity for you. Trip in front of him. If he holds you, he’ll be responsible.”
Sabrina’s eyes lit up with joy. “Really? If it works, I’ll never forget Madison and your kindness.
Wanda said, “If he holds you, with so many people watching, he’ll have to take responsibility, Lance is a responsible person and won’t let you be ridiculed.”
Sabrina grew excited, imagining Alpha Lance’s handsome and imposing face. Her heart raced.
She knew she wasn’t as beautiful as Adelaide, but she was still very pretty. If she succeeded, Lance would surely dote on her.
Wanda said, “I’ll prepare your clothes and jewelry for that day. This must be kept secret. The Bloodmoon Pack is loosely managed. If others find out and ruin your chances, it would be terrible.
“Okay, I won’t tell a soul,” Sabrina said, trying to calm herself, but her face still flushed thinking of Lance.
After Sabrina left, Wanda sneered, “Fool.”
A cold glint flashed in Madison’s eyes. “She wants to be Lance’s breeder? Her greed is her downfall.”
“Lance won’t make her his breeder, but once he holds her, we can spread rumors and ruin his reputation,” Madison said.
“Mother, Sabrina’s unreliable, but we should find someone to be Lance’s breeder. Then we can monitor the Blackthorn Pack,” Wanda said.
Madison slowly sipped her coffee. “No need to rush. Priscilla must be the one to do it.”
“Priscilla?”
Wanda recalled their last encounter with her and Adelaide, anger rising. “Given how close she’s grown to Adelaide, will she even listen to us?”
Madison took another sip of coffee, now cold, and ordered a fresh cup. “She won’t listen to us, but provocation always works with her. There’s someone who can do it.”
Wanda’s eyes brightened. “Use provocation? Get Hera involved.”
She clapped. “You think of everything. Alpha Ansley’s mate Veronica already has a daughter. His two breeders each have a son and daughter, and she’s pregnant again. Priscilla probably doesn’t know about the breeder’s pregnancy. Once she does, she’ll want to find a breeder for Lance. If they fight over entertaining.”

Madison leisurely drank her coffee. “They won’t agree. There’s always friction between a son’s mate and his mother. We just need to sow discord. Priscilla’s easy to manipulate. If we drive a wedge between her and Adelaide, using her will be simple.”
“You’re right, Mother,” Wanda agreed.
