For almost a month, the news had been talking about Phoenix's lawsuit.
I remembered watching it day after day—the endless coverage, the speculation, the shifting narratives. It had consumed the entire pack's attention, filling every news cycle and dominating every conversation.
Then, a few days ago, they suddenly switched completely and started talking about the breeding house.
That one had caught the entire pack's attention.
One day, everyone was talking about Phoenix; the next, the breeding house had taken over everything. News anchors spoke in hushed, serious tones. Experts were brought in to analyze. The public demanded answers.
A lot of people believed the leaders had been trying to hide the case from us.
And honestly, I could understand why they thought that.
Novaterra really was the land of the free.
If this had happened in another pack and the leaders didn't want its citizens to know anything about the breeding house, then we probably wouldn't know.
