The door burst open, and Bertrando Neri, the 13th pack's Beta, arrived at the throne room in a hurry.
"Bertrando!" Cirino called for him. He mind-linked Bertrando earlier so he could give his suggestion for the given problem they were currently facing.
"My King!" Bertrando lowered his head in respect and glanced at Rosina. "My Queen."
"I'm not Pepe's Queen anymore," Rosina grinned and gestured toward Mari's form. "She is."
Bertrando's eyes squinted as he examined Mari's aura and noticed that she was a weak and fragile wolf. The opposite of Rosina. He was already seeing Rosina as a delicate wolf, and knowing that Mari was even more feeble irked him.
Rosina bit her lips to stop herself from laughing. She sensed that Bertrando was disappointed in Mari.
"Will this be enough?" Rosina stated and kept patting Mari's head. "If you reject my offer. I will take away your mate, and you'll never see her again."
