Chapter 632: Oppositions Arising (II)

[Third Person].

Conversely, the Council of Elders had assembled in secrecy. The summons had not come from the King, and that alone made the gathering seem suspicious.

In a dim private chamber within the Council’s chamber, a handful of Elders gathered in low voices. Two Alphas stood among them, their cloaks drawn, and their expressions tight.

An Elder with a number of grey hairs on his head was the first to speak. "We all saw it."

A heavy silence followed, then another muttered, "She moved those steel without touching it. That was not wolf strength."

An Alpha crossed his arms. "Obviously, it was fae magic."

The word itself felt dangerous in the air. Then another elder exhaled slowly.

"We cannot pretend this is a small matter. Stormveil has never been ruled by anything other than full-blooded werewolves."

"She saved your life," one of the younger Alphas snapped quietly.

"And I am grateful," the elder replied sharply. "But gratitude does not erase precedent."

Another Elder leaned forward. "The people will fear what they do not understand."

"And if fear grows, it turns into doubt," the first elder added.

One of the Alphas spoke carefully. "But we all know that the King will not remove her."

"Of course, we know," the second elder agreed. "And this is why pressure can be applied."

The room stilled for a moment before the first elder, who started the conversation, spoke again, 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"We will approach the King respectfully and demand clarity. What is the Queen’s bloodline? What are her capabilities? What protections exist?"

"And if he refuses?" Another elder inquired with furrowed brows.

The second elder’s eyes darkened. "Then we remind him that Stormveil was built on werewolf law."

Murmurs of agreement followed. Though none of them openly declared rebellion, the fracture had begun.

And they all knew it.

At the same time, the Fellowes’ Residence was lively.

Reginald sat in his study, unusually relaxed. A faint smile curved his lips as he swirled the drink in his glass.

Intel had arrived faster than expected and informed him of all that had transpired within twenty-four hours of the Vampires’ invasion. So, he was in a good mood.

He gestured to a servant. "Send for Wanda and Levi."

Minutes later, both of his children entered. Wanda’s posture was rigid while Levi’s expression was cautious.

"You called for us, Father?"

Reginald leaned back in his chair. "Yes, I did. Sit down, both of you." As soon as they did, he began smoothly, "It was Estella who led the vampire attack."

Both siblings stiffened.

"Estella?" Levi repeated. "Draven’s sister?"

Wanda’s eyes widened. "She returned?"

"Oh yes," Reginald said lightly. "And she targeted the palace directly."

Wanda leaned forward. "What happened?"

A slow smile spread across Reginald’s face. "The Queen happened."

Wanda frowned. "What does that mean, father?"
