On my first day as CEO of the pack’s corporation, unfolded.
Walking toward my new office, | caught wind of an ongoing board meeting.
“I can stay by your side, but you'll have to handle things yourself,” Axel reminded me.
| nodded and decided to head straight to the boardroom.

As | approached, | overheard their conversation - they were gossiping about how | was Alpha Malcolm's
supposed illegitimate daughter, coming back to steal everything from my brother, the rightful heir.
When Axel opened the boardroom door, | strode in with purpose.

Their faces went pale. They glanced at Axel, who shot them a threatening look. Immediately, they jumped to
their feet and bowed to him - after all, he was the pack’s Beta.
“Couldn't help but overhear you all,” | said with a smirk.
My sass caught them off guard. Axel suppressed a grin, looking down at the floor. He was clearly enjoying the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshow, and | was nailing it.
“Our apologies, Miss Selene! We didn’t mean to speak so loudly,” one board member stammered.
It was obvious they weren't sorry for what they said - just sorry they got caught.
| met their gazes head-on, refusing to back down.
With a confident smile, | addressed the room. “Allowto introduce myself. I'm your new CEO. And contrary to
your assumptions, I'm not illegitimate.”
Their eyes widened in shock. | could practically hear their thoughts: How is this possible? How could Alpha
Malcolm have a legitimate daughter?
They looked to Axel for confirmation, who nodded firmly.
“She is Alpha Malcolm’s lost daughter - not dead, just missing for years. Now that she’s back, she’ll take what's
rightfully hers. | suggest you all show proper respect,” Axel stated firmly.
They practically tripped over themselves bowing to me.
“Please forgive us. We were foolish to disrespect Alpha’s sister,” one of them pleaded.
“We had no idea you were our lost princess. Your return wasn’t announced - we were completely unaware,”
another added, head still bowed.
| couldn’t help but feel satisfied seeing them grovel.
“It’s fine. If you're truly sorry, prove it through your work. | expect the sloyalty you showed my father.”
My calm response visibly relieved them. They straightened up and nodded eagerly.
As days passed, word spread throughout the pack about Alpha’s daughter's return.
Though pack members hadn't met me, rumors about my appearance circulated. Our laws prohibited
unauthorized photos or videos of pack members.

Several Alphas from neighboring packs requested visits just to meet me, but my brother Magnus declined,
saying | needed tto adjust.
Despite being new to business, within months I'd established myself as a force to be reckoned with.
People who initially respectedonly for my bloodline began to genuinely admire my business
acumen.
“Boss, we're really heading to the coast?” My secretary Rachel asked, looking bewildered.
I'd hired her after becoming CEO, and she'd proven to be both sweet and capable.
“Yeah. I've learned the hard way not to trust blindly. | need to see everything for myself.”
Our pack territory bordered the ocean, and seafood was a major part of our business.
| wanted to personally inspect our aquatic products warehouse.

The drive to the coast took several hours.
We arrived in the late afternoon, and what | found in the warehouse sent my blood boiling - piles of spoiled
seafood going to waste.
“Who's in charge here?” | demanded.
The supervisor approached, head bowed, begging forgiveness for his negligence.
Something felt off - this wasn’t simple carelessness. | suspected sabotage, so | demoted him immediately and
appointed someone more trustworthy.
Word spread that I'd developed an intimidating presence. Under my leadership, the previously lazy staff became
energized and efficient.
It was evening by the t| left the warehouse and headed back to the car.
Rachel's attention was caught by something in the marina.
“Boss, would you like to take a yacht ride?” she asked, gesturing toward the boats.
| turned to look, and one yacht in particular caught my eye - decorated with flowers and candles, clearly set up
for newlyweds.
The sight triggered a flood of memories.
| remembered how Kane's parents had prepared a yacht for us after our wedding. But Kane's refusal to go on our
honeymoon had turned it into a symbol of my isolation.
“Boss? Are you listening?” Rachel's voice snappedback to reality.
| tore my gaze away from the yacht, trying to forget that night when Kane had abandoned his new bride, leaving
