Adelaide smiled, cutting off her venting.

“If this hadn’t happened, you’d be just as stressed out over the fact that no she wolves were asking for help. We shouldn’t let public opinion dictate our moves. Objectively speaking, Wanda is the very first female wolf to ask this Center for asylum. We have to look past our personal bias and investigate this properly. Only when we have a solid, complete chain of evidence can we evict her and clear our name with the public.”

Paisley sat frozen in her chair for a long time after that.

Logically, she completely agreed with Adelaide. But emotionally, she couldn’t understand how Adelaide could be so incredibly forgiving when it came to a woman like Wanda.

“What is your wolf so worked up about?” Adelaide asked, picking up on her long silence.

Paisley looked up, meeting her gaze dead–on.

“My vote is to just throw Wanda out on her ass. It would squash the public’s rage instantly, and it sends a crystal–clear message to the capital: we only protect decent, honorable souls.”

A flash of surprise crossed Adelaide’s eyes. She hadn’t expected Paisley to fall into such black–and–white thinking.

Putting on a rare, serious expression, she countered.

“Paisley, how exactly do you define a ‘decent, honorable soul“?”

“It’s pretty obvious. A she–wolf who has never committed any crimes or done anything malicious.”

“Then do you draw a line between a fatal atrocity and a minor mistake? Where exactly does the boundary between a massive screw–up and a slip–up lie?”

Paisley blinked, her confidence wavering a bit.

“Well… on principle, any form of malice is unacceptable, right? The Center should only welcome wolves who have kept their slates clean.”

“Then do you think we qualify as those kinds of flawless she–wolves?” Adelaide pushed, backing her into a corner.

“Why wouldn’t we?”

“Are you saying you’ve never made a single mistake in your life?”

Paisley froze.

She ran through her own past over the last few years and instantly felt a wave of guilt.

Shrinking back into her chair a bit, she mumbled.

“Minor slip–ups? Okay, fine, definitely. But we aren’t the Moon Goddess; we can’t be perfect twenty–four–seven.”

Adelaide let out a wise laugh.

“Exactly. We cannot use standard of perfect morality to gatekeep who gets help. If we do that, this place will stay empty forever. You have to understand that when a she–wolf is brutally rejected by her mate, the reasons are usually messy and complicated. That’s why we need to build an objective, rational protocol for admissions, and stick to it regardless of our personal likes and dislikes.”

Paisley got up and walked over to the window, trying to calm her restless wolf.

“But Adelaide, if we just send the guards to kick Wanda out right now, this entire PR nightmare vanishes overnight. It’s the easiest, fastest fix.”

“And what about next time?” Adelaide’s voice drifted over from her chair.

“Every time we hit a bump in the road, are we just going to keep throwing out the women we took in to save face?”

Adelaide slowed her words down.

“Looking at this logically, I see this whole Wanda disaster as a perfect stress test. If we push through it, we’ll have a solid blueprint ready for any messy situation that comes our way later. I still stand by my play: we run a full investigation. If the rumors are true, we kick her out. If not, she stays. Isn’t that the most permanent fix?”

She locked her eyes onto Paisley’s back, driving the point home..
