Jennifer's POV: 

I couldn't believe my ears.I stood bolt upright and shouted, "What?! Mrs.Jones was attacked? By who? You must be joking!"

"Oh, how I wish I was joking..."

Anthony's eyes burned with untethered rage.

In that moment, I knew he was being serious.

"Oh, my God! How on earth did this happen? Who would be so bold as to trespass the royal palace?"

I too was enraged.

Elizabeth was the kindest, most considerate woman I knew.Why would anyone want to hurt her? 

"How is she, Anthony? Was she seriously injured?"

"Fortunately, the guards made it in time.Mom is recuperating now."

Anthony frowned and sighed.

"I need to go back to the royal palace as soon as possible to find out who did this."

"Anthony, I'll come with you!"

I volunteered immediately.

However, Anthony shook his head firmly.

"Jennifer, you've just become the Alpha of the Rainbow Pack.Now is an incredibly critical time.If you leave, the public's view of you will be affected, which will undoubtedly affect management in the future." I sighed helplessly.

I knew that Anthony was right, but how could I let him deal with this matter alone? Elizabeth had just been attacked.

It was my duty to go to her and take care of her.

"Anthony, I can't turn a blind eye to what happened to your mom.We're family, aren't we?"

I looked at Anthony with determination.

"Don't worry, Jennifer.Mom would never blame you for staying.If she knew the situation, she would've wanted you to stay here, too," Anthony said gently, taking my hand.

I lowered my gaze, filled with frustration and remorse.

"Anthony..." Just then, Simon cleared his throat.

"Alpha Jennifer, don't worry.You should join Mr.Jones."

Simon gestured towards Tony and himself.

"The Rainbow Pack still has us.We can take over the pack's affairs for the time being.We won't let anything go wrong!"

"He's right, Alpha Jennifer,"

Tony chimed in with a reassuring smile.

"Just leave the pack to us.We might be old, but we can handle this.If something comes up, we'll report to you immediately."

I looked at the two elders in shock.I wasn't expecting them to take such a firm stand at such a critical moment.

Seeing the looks of determination in their eyes, I felt incredibly moved.

Other than Anthony, these two sensible elders were the ones who helped me become Alpha in the first place.

If Tony hadn't supported me openly, the other elders would have Stirred up trouble the day my brother announced his abdication.

"Thank you," I whispered, tears welling up in my eyes.

"When I come back, I will manage the Rainbow Pack to the best of my abilities!"

"There's no need to thank us, Alpha Jennifer.You're our Alpha.It is our duty to support you, especially in times like this."

Tony looked at me sincerely.

At this time, Daniel and Helen also stood up.

Helen walked over to me and took my hand.

"Jennifer, you and Mr.Jones should go back to the royal palace as soon as possible.The queen's safety is your priority.If anything happens to the Rainbow Pack, we'll take care of it."I looked at her gratefully, deeply touched by my friends " support.

However, we were pressed for time, so I didn't say anything more.I simply nodded to Anthony, indicating it was time to go.

"Thank you, everyone." Anthony smiled back at me.

"It turns out you can come back with me, Jennifer.Let's go turn over the pack affairs."

After waving goodbye to Helen and Daniel, the elders and I hurried to the Rainbow House to properly turn over the pack affairs.

There, we also informed the other elders about what had happened, then assigned some tasks to Simon and Tony.

When that was settled, we went straight to the city square, where Anthony's private plane was waiting for us.

Jennifer and I spoke out his name at the same time.

It had to be Larry.

Wizards had always been neutral towards werewolves and vampires.

They rarely intervened in the matters of werewolves, let alone that of the royal family.

We had no enmity with any wizard— except Larry.

Besides, he was the only one capable of making such a big risk and getting away with it.

Jennifer rubbed her chin, deep in thought.

"I have a theory that Larry wanted to get back at us for saving Amelia."

"That's possible." I nodded solemnly.

"He must have found out we broke into his log cabin and released Amelia.He probably went to the royal palace to take her back, or maybe he even wanted to settle accounts with us.But when he found out that neither of us were in the royal palace, he attacked my mom.He's insane!"

When I thought of my poor mother, my anger flared up again.

Larry needed to pay for what he had done.

Minutes later, we reached our destination.

I looked outside the window as the plane landed on the royal palace's tarmac.

Jennifer and I disembarked and went straight to my mother's bedroom.I swung the door open and rushed to my mother's side.

"Mom!"

But she didn't respond.She lay unconscious in her bed, eyes tightly shut.My heart fell at the sight of this.Beside the bed stood Roy, Amelia, and Morgan.When Roy saw me come in, he immediately saluted.

"Mr.Jones, Miss Smith," he greeted.

I nodded to them.

"Thank you for coming.How is she, Roy?"

"Mrs.Jones!"

When Jennifer saw my mother lying in bed, she couldn't help but cry out.

Turning to me, she asked nervously, "How is she?"
