Chapter 438
The commotion on that winding mountain road had gradually subsided, but the storm on the Howlnet had only just begun to rage.
My impressive driving skills had made Emily’s look amateurish, igniting the pack’s fury even more.
The half–hearted statement released overnight by Alexander’s team only fueled the flames.
“Potential newcomer? Are they trying to fool us? ” The howls of disbelief echoed across the Howlnet.
“They hyped her up to the moon, and now it’s just a ‘misunderstanding‘?” The accusations were sharp and cutting.
“Star Media is a complete disaster! This crappy pack deserves to go bankrupt p>
The insults poured in, a relentless tide of fury.
The barrage of termination notices from partners arrived, each one representing a huge chunk of territory lost, and those breach of contract penalties were terrifying.
Star Media was bleeding resources – fast.
Alexander sat in his office, his face grim.
The ashtray in front of him was overflowing with chewed herbs, a small mountain of them, and the room reeked of the bitter scent, suffocating.
His wolf was restless, its agitation mirroring his own.
All the losses on the field, the relentless online slander, and the dwindling resources felt like claws tearing into his fragile pride,
His eyes were bloodshot, that usual dark, brooding look he usually hid completely visible now.
His wolf growled low in his chest.
He stared at Emily with a look that seemed ready to devour her.
If it weren’t for her insistence on making this public spectacle, Star Media wouldn’t be in this mess!
Seeing his expression, Emily knew he was blaming her.
Yes, the idea was hers, but he’d agreed to it! And right now, only he and Andrew were on her side.
She couldn’t afford to lose his support.
Her wolf whimpered, fear mixing with a desperate need for survival.
Her eyes reddening slightly, she slowly moved closer to Alexander.
“ Alexander …” she whispered softly, her voice gentle and coaxing.
She released a subtle pheromone, a scent of
appeasement.

She scooted closer, “I really didn’t expect things to turn out like this… I’m so sorry, it’s all my fault p>
Alexander suddenly lifted his head, his eyes dark and menacing.
His wolf bared its fangs, its anger a palpable presence.
Emily bit her lip, gently placing her hand on his tense shoulders, lightly kneading and teasing him with her fingertips.
Her touch was deliberate, designed to soothe his agitated wolf.
“Alexander, don’t be angry,” Her voice was laced with a tempting undertone.
She subtly moved closer, her warm breath brushing his ear.
Her pheromones intensified, a subtle shift towards attraction p>
Alexander remained stiff, silent.
His wolf remained wary, assessing the situation.
Emily bit her lip again, a calculating glint in her eyes.
She knew he was someone who responded better to softness than pressure.

So she bent down, lowering her voice further, whispering in his ear,“Alexander, I know the pack’s in a tough spot… How about I go talk to Andrew? He loves me most, he’ll definitely help p>
The mention of resources seemed to loosen Alexander’s tense nerves a little.
His anger subsided slightly, but his expression remained grim.
But she knew she’d hit the right spot, so her touch became gentler, her body closer.
Her warm body, just beneath her thin clothes, radiated an indefinable intimacy.
Her pheromones shifted again, highlighting her submission and vulnerability.
Alexander’s throat moved, but the anger inside him was temporarily suppressed by the current predicament.
Mm,” he grunted, his voice hoarse.
His wolf grumbled, still wary but less aggressive.
A triumphant glint flashed in Emily’s eyes, but her face remained meek and obedient.
Alexander, don’t worry, Andrew loves me most, I’ll definitely get him to help p>
She turned, picked up her comm–link, and dialed Andrew’s number.
3ut Alexander suddenly grabbed her, biting her earlobe.
‘ What? Andrew loves you, but I don’t? ”
His wolf’s possessiveness was clear.

Emily flinched.
“It tickles! Ow, stop it p>
Her wolf whimpered, a mixture of fear and arousal.
