Punishment

[Ellie's P.O.V]

"What a wonderful name!"

The flattery began again.

Anton quickly cut them off, "Enough. Now that we've decided to establish the new pack, I expect everyone to fulfill their responsibilities. I will assign people to oversee your work, and any negligence... well, you know what I'm capable of. Moreover, the contents of today's meeting, especially those related to the establishment of the pack, must remain confidential. Similarly, if I find anyone has grown too talkative, they might find themselves short of a tongue."

Anton's gaze turned sharp, his threat certain. The senior members nodded meekly, promptly leaving the meeting room in a subdued manner.

In essence, their presence brought them no advantage but rather a loss. Even if their secrets weren't spread, they were now at our mercy.

With the examples of the first two, the rest were cautious, aware that their personal affairs hadn't escaped the notice of the alphas.
