Chapter 19 The low murmurs of conversation abruptly ceased . Inside the Clan meeting room , everyone's gaze unanimously turned towards the door . With a steady push of the door , a he - wolf in pack leathers walked in , leading a professional wolf - law team behind him , their steps neat and firm . How could it be him ?! Xavier knew this wolf . He was Ethan Blake , the second to Alpha Lucian Blackwell . Ethan stopped in front of him . He said sternly , " My apologies , Alpha Sinclair , the Clan meeting isn't over yet , you cannot leave . I'm here to announce a decision on behalf of our Alpha Blackwell . " Xavier was somewhat confused . My wolf snarled . He curled his lips and smiled , " Alpha Blake , have you made a mistake ? This is our Sinclair Pack's Clan meeting . Have you come to the wrong place ? " Though the Blackwell family wielded great power , it wasn't Lucian's place to act wildly on his turf . Ethan smiled , " Not for long . " " What ?! " Xavier froze , sensing something ominous . Next , Ethan was heard saying again : ' Alpha Blackwell is now the main Blood - Lineholder of Sinclair Pack . From today onwards , this territory will no longer be Sinclair's , and your Alpha position is revoked . Another will come to take your place then . ' With that said , he handed out two documents . One was a Blood - Line transfer agreement , proving the source of the Blood - Line Lucian Blackwell currently held . The other was a removal of position notice . The lawyers also sprang into action , distributing these two documents to the Elders present . The scene instantly became a chaotic uproar , with howls rising and falling . Xavier stood frozen in place , his eyes filled with disbelief . He snatched the documents from Ethan's hand and carefully examined their contents . Lucian actually held 50 % of the Blood - Line . It turned out he had made arrangements early on , secretly acquiring 20 % of the Blood - Line , and then , taking advantage of this howlnet storm , collected another 10 % from the market at low prices . As for the crucial remaining 20 % , it was actually transferred by Celeste !! My wolf whimpered . And he only held 40 % of the Blood - Line . 6.5 % < Chapter 19 Just as Ethan had said , from today onwards , Sinclair Pack would no longer bear the Sinclair name , but the Blackwell name . The papers in his hand suddenly fell to the floor , and Xavier stumbled back , almost losing his footing . " Cess , why ? " He never would have thought that Celeste would actually sell the Blood - Line ; this was their shared painstaking effort . But it also precisely proved that she truly didn't want it anymore . She didn't want him , nor the territory they had worked tirelessly on for countless full moon nights over so many years . No , he couldn't accept this outcome . Mem He grabbed Ethan's collar and asked , " Is Lucian playing tricks behind the scenes , swindling these 20 % of the Blood - Line from Celeste ? She was tricked , right ? " Xavier's eyes were filled with yearning . Yearning to get an answer from him , an answer that would let him continue to deceive himself . But Ethan had no obligation to comfort him . Neither concealing nor exaggerating , he reported truthfully with a serious expression : " It was Luna Sloane who actively approached Alpha Blackwell to transfer the Blood - Line at a price 30 % below market value . " 30 % below market value ?! This is impossible ...... Xavier weakly released his grip . Compared to losing the territory , he was now more afraid of completely losing Celeste . Back then , the territory had faced a crisis , and someone was willing to buy it at a high price . He had wavered , but Celeste refused , even having a big fight with him over it . She said the territory was their other home , and as long as the territory was there , their home was still there , and no one was allowed to say they'd give up . But now she had sold it cheaply at a low price . First the Blood Severance , and then selling the Blood - Line , did Celeste really not want to have any more ties with him ? No , it couldn't be like that . Xavier didn't want to admit this fact , even thinking that Celeste must have had a reason , perhaps she encountered trouble after returning to Austin and desperately needed silver for turnover ? He had to go to Austin himself to ask . < Chapter 20 Chapter 20
