Chapter 29: The Price of Defiance [V]

The comments below the article were brutal.

​@WolfPack_99:

"A HUMAN SLAPPED PRINCESS BEATRICE?! Is this girl out of her mind?! Somebody put her in a leash and throw her out of the academy!"

​@Lunar_Knight:

"I was there in the corridor! Beatrice’s lip was literally bleeding! A human drew werewolf blood on the first day! Who does this Downsoon girl think she is?!"

@Vixen_Perigee:

"Princess Beatrice is way too merciful. If some human commoner put her hands on me, I wouldn’t have just given her a slap, I would have torn her apart right there. Downsoon needs to learn her place!"

@EclipseEmpire:

"The confidence of some humans these days needs to be studied."

​@FangGirl_101:

"Did she really disrespect Alpha Mikhail to his face too?! The nerve! She’s acting like she owns the place just because she got a few votes on Apex. I’m revoking my vote right now."

@Gore_Hunter:

"DOWNSOON?! The nickname fits her so well! Credit to Night Owl for coining it, because this girl is literally going DOWN soon! 😂😂😂

But I’ve got more: DOWNTRASH. DOWNCLOWN. DOWNBAD. DOWNHILL. DOWNFALL. DOWNGRADE. DOWNCAST. DOWNRIGHT STUPID. Seriously, Asterion hasn’t even started with her yet. 💀💀💀"

@Moonfang97:

"MISS DOWNSOON 😭😭😭 I’M NEVER CALLING HER STARLIGHT AGAIN."

@SilverClaw:

"Night Owl absolutely cooked her with that nickname. 😹😹😹"

@RoyalBlood88

"Miss Downsoon is really going down soon. She’ll go from Rank 14 in the to public enemy number one in less than a day."

@SilverPaws_Reign:

"Night Owl hit the nail on the head! Downsoon took the Twins’ kindness for weakness and thought she was special. Now Eden pulled the video down! She got dumped by the royal family in less than 12 hours LMFAO 💀💀"

@HumanUnity_Star:

"Wait, guys, hold on... I was in the hall when it happened. Princess Beatrice slapped Elle FIRST. Starlight was just defending her roommate! Beatrice was the one bullying a human backward-walking student!"

└ @ClawEnforcer: "Shut your mouth up if you don’t want to get targeted next. A human putting hands on a Perigee noble is NEVER justified."

└ @Alpha_Rulez: "Lol look at another human trying to make excuses for violence. It doesn’t matter who hit who first, Downsoon escalated it against a noble clan! Know your hierarchy!"

└ @HumanUnity_Star: "But it’s true! Beatrice was stepping on us like always—"

└ @BiteMe_Hard: "Delete your account, low-rank trash. Or drop your dorm number so we can teach you how to respect royalty too."

@ApexWatcher:

"She dropped 3,000 votes on Apex in the last five minutes alone! People are actively downvoting her. Downsoon is going to fall straight to the bottom of the board by morning."

​@Crescent_Princess:

"Imagine getting blessed with a spot at Asterion Academy and wasting it by offending TWO royal clans before dinner. Miss Downsoon has to be the stupidest human in the history of the Empire."

@Realist_Student:

"I’m a human student, and I just want to say Downsoon DOES NOT represent us. Please don’t lump the rest of us with her reckless, arrogant behavior. We respect the rules and the Five Clans!"

└ @Hawthorne_Fan: "At least some of you humans have common sense. Tell your little revolutionary friend to get on her knees and beg before the whole human block pays for her pride."

​@Viper_Gaze:

"The fact that she turned her back on Alpha Mikhail... I was literally gasping. The disrespect was insane. He looked so cold afterward. Downsoon is officially a dead girl walking."

​@Noble_Observer:

"Night Owl, another absolute masterpiece of an article! Downsoon is the perfect name for her. She was flying too close to the sun, and now her wings are burnt."

@Shadow_Pack:

"If I see Downsoon in the dining hall tomorrow, I’m dumping my tray on her head. Who’s joining me?"

└ @FangGirl_101: "Me! 🙋‍♀️"

└ @Vixen_Perigee: "Count me in. Let’s show Downsoon what happens to humans who forget their place."

@HowlQueen:

"I honestly feel bad for Alpha Mikhail. Imagine helping someone only for them to disrespect you."

​@Wolfheart_Nation:

"ALL WOLFHEARTS LISTEN UP! 🗣️🔥 Go to the Apex board RIGHT NOW and retrieve every single vote you gave to Starlight Dawson! She used our Alphas’ reputation to climb the charts, and then humiliated Alpha Mikhail in public! She does not deserve a single vote from any of us. Strip her of Rank 14 by midnight!"

└ @Luna_Stalker: "Already retrieved mine! Down to rank 40 she goes!"

└ @PackFirst: "Done. Anyone still voting for Downsoon is an enemy of the Eclipse Clan and Wolfhearts."

└ @Alpha_Supporter: "Done and downvoted! Let’s drag her back to the zero rank where she belongs."

​@Starlight_Visage:

"I won’t lie... she’s stunning. That face and those green eyes were gorgeous, but wow, what a complete waste of beauty on such a trash personality. She looks like an angel, but acts like a wild animal with no manners."

└ @BloodMoon_Beta: "Waste of face fr. She thought pretty face + Alpha attention = immune to rules. Reality is about to hit her like a truck."

└ @GlassSlipper: "She really thought she was the main character 💀"

​

@Rebel_Spirit:

"Wait, since when is it a crime for a human to stand up for themselves?! 🤨 Starlight saw her roommate get slapped and fought back. Why are we acting like werewolves are untouchable gods who can hit whoever they want without consequences? It’s high time you guys stop treating humans like dirt under your boots!"

└ @FangsOut: "Found another brave little mouse behind a screen. You want to test if we’re untouchable in person?"

└ @PureBlood_Elite: "It’s a crime because she’s a human in OUR empire. Know your place or leave the academy. Simple."

└ @Rebel_Spirit: "The empire belongs to everyone, not just people with fangs. You all talk big until someone actually hits back!"

└ @Perigee_Loyalist: "Keep talking like that and we’ll track your IP to your dorm room. Let’s see how loud you are then."

@Centurion_Alpha:

"Look at the length of this article and the state of these comments. A human girl literally broke a noble’s lip, treated a Royal Alpha like an annoying child, and walked away unscathed. She is an absolute menace. If the academy administration doesn’t discipline Downsoon publicly, students will handle it themselves. Consider this her formal notice."

@Anonymous_Wolf:

"She really looked Alpha Mikhail in the eyes and asked ’Who are you to me?’ 💀💀💀 I’m still in shock. The sheer audacity. I don’t know if she’s insanely brave or just has zero brain cells."

​@Savage_Howler:

"She thinks having a pretty face and a lucky lottery ticket makes her equal to us. Tomorrow morning in the courtyard is going to be brutal. Nobody sits with Downsoon. Nobody talks to Downsoon. Let’s make her regret ever stepping foot in Asterion."

@BloodyEclipse:

"RETRIEVE ALL VOTES! I swear if I see any human or wolf still keeping her in the Apex top 20, you are dead to the entire student body. Strip her naked of every single vote!"

└ @Alpha_Guard: "Down to Rank 49 already! Keep pulling them back! Drop her straight into the dirt where pests belong!"

└@Midnight_Howl: "Rank 50 now! You are going down, clout chaser! 👎💀"

​@Terror_Perigee:

"Beatrice was too soft. If Downsoon stepped in front of me like that, I would have snapped her neck in two before she could even raise her hand. Humans need to be reminded why they were put at the bottom of the food chain."

└ @Claw_Slayer: "Facts. She’s breathing our air and living in our dorms, yet she acts like a rabid dog. Time to put her down."

​@Royal_Enforcer:

"I’m literally shaking with rage reading this. Alpha Mikhail walked up to help her ugly ass and she asked him ’WHO ARE YOU TO ME?’ 🤬🤬🤬 The sheer, unadulterated DISRESPECT. She deserves to be thrown into the dungeon cell under the assembly hall."

└ @FangGirl_101: "I cried when I saw a video of that part fr. Alpha Mikhail was being so gracious and she treated him like trash. She needs to be publicly flogged!"

​@Imperial_Bred:

"Let’s clarify something for the human sympathizers in this thread: YOU ARE SUBHUMAN TO US. You exist in this academy on OUR mercy. The moment you lay a finger on a noble wolf, you forfeit your right to walk out of this place in one piece. Downsoon will learn this lesson the hard way tomorrow."

@Huntress_K:

"She’s lucky we’re still in Freshman Week. If we weren’t, her class schedule would already be a nightmare. We’d make sure she couldn’t get to a single lecture without being drenched in food scraps or tripped on the stairs."

└ @Shadow_Pack:"We can still do it. I’ve already got her dorm information. Block B, fourth floor. We’re camping outside the entrance starting at 6 a.m."

└ @Vixen_Perigee: "Count the entire Perigee House in. We’re going to make her beg for forgiveness on her knees in front of the entire courtyard."

@Truth_Teller_X:

"This whole situation is disgusting. Beatrice assaulted a human first, and you all are witch-hunting the only girl with enough guts to stand up to royal bullies! You’re all sick in the head!"

└ @Pack_Executioner: "Found another human traitor. Enjoy your last peaceful night in the dorms, @Truth_Teller_X. We know who you are."

└ @BloodMoon_Beta:"Imagine defending a human who struck a Royal. You’re going down right along with her, rat."

└ @Truth_Teller_X: "Come find me then! You wolves are nothing without your titles!"

└ @ClawEnforcer: "Marked. See you tomorrow trash."

@Void_Walker:

"Starlight probably thought if she acted tough, the Alpha Twins would find her ’interesting’ like in those trashy romance novels. Newsflash sweetie: you’re just a filthy human commoner and they will discard you like yesterday’s garbage!"

@Apex_Dominance:

"The fact that her video was taken down by Eden within hours is the ultimate slap in the face. She got dumped, exposed, and stripped. Worst day one in Asterion history!"
