At the pack’s borders, those frightened women and children were being precluded by those partying at the borders. Quite a lot were filming them too.
“Please stop!” one of the women pleaded tearfully.
“Let us pass, please!” a little black-haired boy begged.
“Nope,” a warrior of the 12th-ranked pack said with glee.
“She’s the one who let us go,” another remnant Ralton disputed.
“Who knows if you’re trying to escape while she’s dealing with your Alpha? I thought you were proud to be Raltons?” Alpha Dmitri’s warrior interrogated mockingly as he munched on a yellow fruit.
“I allowed them to leave, so let them go. Whatever happens to them in the future is none of my business,” Lavana’s voice was heard from above. Everyone looked up to see her standing on a sturdy tree branch, arms folded.
“And I thought I warned you guys not to film at all. Was I speaking to myself earlier?” she questioned with a deep scowl.
Immediately, many threw down their phones and cameras, some even stomped on them till they became fragments. These little gadgets weren’t enough for them to be on the Olmpha’s bad side.
“Sorry about that, Miss McKenny,” Alpha Marcus apologized sheepishly.
“You’re lucky,” Lavana scoffed before jumping off the tall tree’s branch, landing easily on the ground a few feet away from the people.
“From now on, Ralton Pack doesn’t exist. According to the law, everything that once belonged to a defeated pack automatically becomes the victor’s possession. This entire land and all the wealth that Blake once controlled now belongs to me. If I find any trespasser on this land, I will pay a visit to the person’s pack,” she warned.
“Noted, Miss. Each Alpha King here will provide people who will not trespass into this land and will fight off anyone who plans to,” Alpha Marcus offered.
“No need,” without looking back, Lavana casually threw a shiny black gemstone taken from her storage ring behind her. When it fell to the ground, a magical silver barrier was immediately set up, covering all parts of Ralton.
“You can find Blake at the other end,” she revealed before levitating.
“Also, where’s the 7th-ranked Alpha?” she inquired.
Immediately, a tall, olive-skinned man with dark brown shoulder-length hair and blue eyes stepped out, “Here I am, Miss,” he slightly bowed his head in greeting.
“All properties that once belonged to Moon Heart, relinquish control of them,” she ordered, “The one to sign the documents will come to you in two days. And, don’t you dare reserve any of Moon Heart’s property for yourself, otherwise, you’re tired of living,” she warned before flying away.
Everyone looked at the Alpha King who was sweating bullets now. What was fetching him the most income belonged to Moon Heart.
Luna Anita, back then, offered that if he lent some of his men to her to battle Moon Heart and take down their Alpha, Reece Hawkins, then all of the properties of Moon Heart would belong to him. And he heartily agreed back then.
Now, the Olmpha was asking him to relinquish control just like that.
If it were just Alpha Marcus or even an Elder of the werewolf council who gave such an order, he would try to keep at least one or maybe three to himself secretly. But this was ordered by her- the terrifying wolf sovereign!
Disobedience meant his pack would be gone, just like Ralton of today. Even if all the wolf bloods were to come together to fight against her, with her immense strength, flying ability and more importantly, her invisibility skill, it would be like an ant trying to destroy a mountain.
He could only bend this time!
“What?” he questioned with ire at those staring at him, “She might come for any of you soon. Don’t be too happy yet. Besides it’s just letting go of some properties,” with that, he walked away. He was in no mood to party anymore with how dire the situation was.
“She asked for Moon Heart’s properties. She doesn’t want the land?” the 14th-ranked Alpha questioned.
“Dummy! Anything that belongs to Moon Heart, she wants it,” the 5th Alpha King responded.
“Does that mean her mate is a survivor of the pack’s destruction?” Alpha Dmitri questioned Alpha Marcus using mind link.
“The late Alpha Reece did have a son named Sullivan Phoenix Hawkins. I came across it while reading a book that dealt with the history of fallen packs some years ago,” Alpha Marcus disclosed via telepathy, “We do know that her mate’s name is Phoenix. So he might be that child. Sigh! Alpha Felix’s really unlucky,”
“That’s why there is this saying ‘You reap what you sow’. We have to be more careful in our affairs from now on,” said Alpha Dmitri solemnly through mind link, “We don’t want to offend the wolf sovereign in any way,” said Alpha Dmitri.
“Indeed,” Alpha Marcus nodded his agreement.
“Next year, my son will take over from me,” divulged Alpha Dmitri.
“I hope he’ll be as good as you,”
“Oh, he’ll be better,” the 3rd-ranked Alpha chuckled.

A week later,
Phoenix now had everything that rightfully belonged to him.
At his mate’s request, he also took over the companies in the human world that belonged to Ralton and Moon Crest. The lands of all three packs had been sealed with different barriers, so no one could enter except a fellow sorcerer.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
He appointed a few of his men to stay in the human territory to maintain control over the numerous businesses that belonged to him and his wife.
Although they were reluctant at first, at the offer of 6 times their salary and also the promise of a precious training manual, they readily agreed.
Now he had more time to spend with his mate. Since they’d taken down their enemies, it was time for them to get married.
Beatrix, on getting the long-awaited news, became excited. She and a few maids began to practice secretly in expectation of the big day. Many in the light wiz kingdom had gotten news too, that the Savage Lord had finally found his mate and she was a beautiful mermaid.
They would certainly attend the wedding that was set to happen next month.
