Chapter 104 The Fall of a Goddess
Aubrey’s POV
“Excited?” Alpha Henry studied my face, trying to read my reaction.
I didn’t answer. Instead, want me to see?”
asked, The rightful source is.net
So, Alpha, why did you really bring me here today? What exactly did you
Alpha Henry lowered his gaze. “If Mariana had the nerve to harm someone and steal their work,” he said seriously, “then the entire werewolf world deserves to see who their so–called goddess really is.”
He was going to expose her publicly?
I couldn’t believe it.
He used to indulge her every whim and now, he wanted to destroy her?
I frowned instinctively, but just then, the music started. I turned toward the screen.
Mariana had begun to dance. Her movements were fierce, every spin and strike like a warrior mid–battle more beast than performer.
But then the background behind her – once a forested mountain – flickered and changed.
A male werewolf appeared, dancing the same routine: Black Swan.
At first, Mariana didn’t notice. The murmuring began in the crowd. Then, the screen played a voice hers. Only then did she falter and stop.

“Mariana, do you think I’ll win an award for this?” camè Daria’s voice. “I spent five or six years perfecting this dance after returning from the frontlines. I think it’s good… but maybe I’m just too proud.”
Then Mariana appeared on the screen, replying: “This dance is definitely going to make it big! But… I have one favor to ask. I wonder if you’ll agree.”
On stage, Mariana froze.
“Shut it off! Shut it off right now!” she screamed in panic.
But the equipment didn’t respond.
The conversation continued:
“What favor?” Daria asked, smiling faintly. “You’ve done so much for me. If it’s within my power, I’ll agree.”
Mariana smiled sweetly. “It’s simple./Sell me your dance.”
Daria’s expression changed instantly. “No. This is the result of years of work. You’ve never been to war – you can’t understand its meaning. I can’t give it to you.”
Mariana’s smile vanished. Her voice turned cold. “Hmph. Do you really think you have a choice? I-
Bang!
The screen went dark.
Chapter 104 The Fall of a Goddess
Mariana had hurled a speaker into the display and shattered it.
The key part of the conversation had been cut off. But what had played was more than enough to ruin her
Her eyes were bloodshot, her body visibly trembling on the edge of transformation.
Below the stage, the audience had already begun murmuring.
“Wait… wasn’t Black Swan Mariana’s original choreography? The royal family even praised her for it! ”
“But in that video, the guy said it was his and he didn’t sell it. So how did she get it?”
“She’s a fraud! A plagiarist! And they called her the youngest genius choreographer? What a joke!”
The murmurs turned to outrage, swelling louder by the second. I watched as Mariana’s once–radiant face paled in horror.
My clenched fists slowly relaxed.
There was no need to watch

I shut off the screen and turned to Alpha Henry. “Where’s Daria? You said you met him. Give him to me.”
He looked at me carefully, as though trying to decipher what I was really feeling. After a moment, he replied, “He asked me to help him get justice. I promised I would… and then he left.”
Left?
I narrowed my eyes, then stood up. “Alpha, the show was spectacular. Thanks for the invitation. I’ll be leaving now.”
“Aubrey!”
He suddenly reached out and grabbed my hand. “Are you happy right now? Or are you angry?”
I squinted at him, narrowing my gaze.
“Does it matter whether I’m happy or not?”
“It matters a lot.”
“Fine then. I’m very happy. Now let go.”
“No!” Henry’s brows knit tight. His lips pressed together, then parted, then closed again – clearly torn inside.
“What are you angry about?” he demanded. “Your eyes tell me you’re pushing me away.”
At that, I finally yanked my hand from his.
“Pushing you away?” I repeated coldly. “That’s a good word for it. In fact, I did enjoy what I just saw … but at the same time…”
I stared at him, voice sharp.
“…I think you’re terrifying.”
