Alina's POV:
I froze on the spot, speechless. I wondered if Laura saw through me.
"What? Have you already lost your tongue? It was just a small thing, but you couldn't even do it well. What are you if you are not a fool?" Laura sneered. Then she turned around, walked to the sofa, and sat down. "Do you think Rufus won't find out that Coco is simply taking the blame for you?"
"I don't understand what you mean," I said in a low voice, wanting to keep playing dumb.
Laura looked at me coldly and said, "Stop pretending. I've been in this position for so many years. I've already seen all kinds of people and their tricks, brilliant or not. You are still too naive. If you are really so innocent and pure, then I don't think you are suitable for this position."
I got so flustered at once. I didn't expect that Laura would see through me so easily.
"When did you find out?" I asked haltingly.
"I knew it from the first time I saw you," Laura snorted coldly. Then she picked up her fan and flapped it gracefully. "People can't hide their ambition in their eyes."
I touched my eyes subconsciously, feeling a little confused. "But you still chose
me."
"I need someone who has the desire, ambition, and even ruthlessness. Only such a she-wolf can truly defend her power." After saying this, Laura looked at me up and down and shook her head. She added, "You have the desire and the ambition. But you are not ruthless enough. You have to understand that in the imperial capital, the cheapest thing is compassion."
"But Coco is..." I wanted to stand up for Coco, but Laura interrupted me impatiently.
"I know you don't want to give her up. But this time, you don't have a choice. You have to. How can you not sacrifice anything in doing something great? Which is more important to you, your life or your humble servant's?"
I couldn't answer her question. No matter whose life was more important was not under my control.
"I suppose no one else knows about this," Laura said when I remained silent. S-lah the Findlovel.let website on Gøøgl to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
I hesitated for a moment, thinking of Warren. Should I tell Laura the truth or not?
"You must tell me everything. Otherwise, how can I help you? Do you think Rufus will let you go just like that next time?" Laura threw away her fan and said angrily, "Come on, be straightforward. I hate indecisive people the most."

"Okay, I'll tell you. The son of the Beta of our pack also knows. His name is Warren, and he's my childhood m friend," hurriedly said. He knows everything I did, and he has evidence.
He even threatened me with it. He said that if I don't leave the imperial capital after the military parade, he will expose my crimes." The content is on Popsnovel.com! Read the latest chapter there!

"Now I can say that you are really stupid. How can you let him walk around with that big of a secret? Laura rebuked me loudly since I didn't live up to her expectations. "Just now, I asked you to tell me the truth, but you still wanted to protect him, right? You won't even know why you're doomed one day." The content is on Popsnovel.com!

"So, what shall I do now?" I couldn't help but shiver. Laura's angry look scared
me, reminding me of my father.
"Since things have already reached this point, we don't have a choice but to kill him," she said indifferently.

My eyes widened in shock. I regretted
telling her the truth. "Warren is the
son of a Beta. He's not an ordinary werewolf that can be killed casually." killed Laura sported coldly and said contemptuously, "So what? Do you
expect me to consider that?" Her
words sent a chill down my spine. For the first time, I felt so
insignificant in front of supreme
power. Even though Warren and I had
fallen out, I never thought of killing
him. The content is on

"Go back and think it through. Come back to me when you figure it out. I will help
you by then. But if you can't really make up your mind, it doesn't matter." Laura paused and gave me a kind smile. "You can go back to your pack anytime. Many she-wolves want to be the future queen anyway."
