Eden fixed his collar so that the bite mark could not be seen and ignored the gaze of the alpha, but he could feel that the other male was burning holes in his back. He went straight to one of his co-workers. "What is he doing here?" Eden whispered a question to Luis, who was their beta volunteer. Luis shrugged his shoulders. "He was asking to have a test on his blood; maybe he was poisoned." Eden hitched hearing it and saw the doctor of the pack, Asher, come out with an injection and then approached Lior to take blood and put it in a container to be checked. "The results will come out tomorrow; rest assured that we will tell you right away, Alpha Lior," Asher said.

Lior sighed, "Have you also checked the wine?" The doctor nodded in response, "Yes, Alpha. Are you the only one who drank this?” Lior wasn't sure if Eden was also drink that wine but he just nodded to the doctor, "Just check what drug they have put on the wine, then please treat the bite on my shoulder." He showed his shoulder where there was a bite and everyone's eyes widened when they saw it, who has an audacity to bite their leader alpha's son shoulder. "A big cat bit my shoulder last night." Lior added making sure Eden heard it so the young man coughed, Asher quickly called his assistant to get his things. "That's what the proud are blessed with." Eden whispered then rolled his eyes then took his seat, Lior snorted. "Did you say something? ”

Everyone stopped because they knew the two were enemies, and the others were waiting in case everything got physical. Eden chose not to answer the other alpha, making Lior stand up and walk towards the male, while Eden didn't bother to look at him. “Are you testing my patience? If you are..." Lior leaned closer towards Eden to whisper his next words. "I will tell everyone what happened to us last night." The other alpha male glared at him before giving his answer. "Try it; I myself will end your life here," Eden threatened, but Lior just smirked as he got the reaction he wanted. They both looked at each other. "Then stop provoking me, Eden, and you'll regret it." He patted Eden's shoulder, then went back to his place to be treated by the doctor. Everyone was stunned that there was no fight between the two because normally Lior is the first to hit Eden with his fist.

A few minutes ago, Lior also left after treating the bite on his shoulder. The heavy atmosphere earlier was also gone because the two enemy alphas kept running around. Almira and Luis took the opportunity to get closer to Eden, who was busy checking some diagnoses. The alpha didn't bother to stop what he was doing. "What did Lior whisper to you earlier?" Almira asked curiously, and Eden sighed before answering. "No, it's about the final warning for the two of us from the alpha leader." Because he and Lior are always fighting and they are getting to his father and their alpha leader, they are just trying not to make too much trouble. His friends didn't ask any more questions and just continued to work until everyone was called for the pack meeting.

Everyone gathered in the biggest party of the pack mansion, the conference room. Eden saw his father standing near the stage with his stepmother and half-sister, so he went to stand near them. He thought it was okay at first, but he realised that he was too close to Lior when he saw the young man enter and go on stage. Eden tried to ignore his stares again. Everyone fell silent as the Alpha Leader entered. Lior looked away from Eden, then gave his attention to his father. Meonil Kang, also known as Alpha Leader, sat on the throne at the centre of the stage, then looked at his people. The annual pack meeting has started.

The problems happening in the pack were discussed one by one, especially the ones they had to do because of the declaration of rebellion by their opponent's pack. "Alpha, our military is ready in case they attack us," one of the alpha warriors explained. Alpha Meonil just nodded. “Is there anything else you want to say before we end the meeting? "He asked. Everyone was silent for a few seconds when one of the alpha councils, Victor, spoke up. "Me, I want to add something else, Alpha." The alpha council was filled with alphas with a high position in the pack that the alpha leader himself chose, and Eden's father was one of them. The alpha leader nodded to allow Victor to speak.

"Last night, Victoria's daughter was found in a bar where the birthday party was held naked and unconscious, I found out that all the drinks last night at the party had drugs and unfortunately my daughter was also involved . Her birthday just ended but this is the tragedy that happened to her, I would like to catch the person who did this and also the person who raped my daughter because he has to pay for what he did." Everyone was surprised by what they heard, even Lior and Eden but they pretended not to know but Eden could feel someone was looking at him when he looked for him he saw Victoria's mother who was next to the girl's father staring at him causing him to feel something bad might happen.

"I'm sorry for what happened to your daughter Victor; don't worry, and we will talk to the councils so we can investigate what happened," Alpha Meonil said, and everyone agreed. After a few minutes, the pack meeting was over, and everyone went home to meet the alpha council and the alpha leader. As one of the heirs of the pack, Lior also stayed by his father's side; he just listened to their conversation. "How is Victoria now?" He heard Eden's father ask Victor, and the old man smiled a little before answering that his daughter would be fine. His wife was right next to him and was quiet, but her face showed signs of crying. "The perpetrators of these things must be held accountable; you can count on us to help you," said another alpha. Lior tried not to give a reaction."Valentine, I just want to ask how old your oldest child is." That question makes Lior almost stop breathing. Valentine laughed before answering. "Eden? He is already in his twenties, but he still hasn't introduced his mate to us." The woman next to Victor suddenly smiled. "Just wait; maybe he will introduce someone to you who is his mate." He was joking, but Valentine shook his head. The older man knew his son didn't have time for it, especially since he was still studying to be a doctor at a medical school where his deceased mother was studying. "Our daughter likes your son; she even invited him last night, but I'm not sure if he attended my daughter's party." Valentine stops for a moment, then laughs again, "maybe he came home in the morning." Lior was just listening to them, but he knew something was up with the couple, and it involved his Eden.

"It looks like you're talking seriously," Alpha Meonil muttered. Everyone mumbled his title, then bowed their heads. "Valentine and I were just joking," Victor explained. Alpha Meonil smiled. "We're talking about my son, Eden," Valentine said. The alpha leader nodded when he heard the young man's familiar name. "Lior's constant enemy, I don't know why the two of them can't get along." His comment made Lior cough to get their attention; he knew what exactly the explanation was. "I'm here, dad; you can ask me," he said, and Alpha Meonil laughed before answering. "I already knew it; you always reported it to me and your mommy." They returned to the conversation and ignored Lior in the back.
