While the omega's stayed with Woozi, Seungcheol gathered the Alphas and Betas of their pack, choosing to discuss with the omega's later.

Seungcheol and Jeonghan discussed the situation and their options with the other pack memebers. The tension in the air was thick as they weighed the potential consequences of each course of action.

"We can't let them push us around," Mingyu growled. "We need to stand our ground!"

"Agreed. But we need to be strategic about how we approach this. We don't want to escalate the situation unnecessarily." Seungcheol pointed out.

"We need to find a way to resolve this peacefully if possible. Violence will only lead to more bloodshed." Minghao added.

After much deliberation, Seungcheol devised a plan that combined diplomacy with a show of strength. He reached out to the rival Alpha, offering to negotiate a truce and restablish clear boundaries between their territories.

However this seemed to only make tensions between the two packs reach its peak.

Which lead to Seungcheol and Jeonghan standing at the edge of their territory, their pack behind them as the co-leaders eyes fixed on the approaching rival Alpha and his followers.

Seungcheol stepped forward, his gaze steady, his voice ringing out clear and strong across the clearing. "We come in peace," he called out, hoping amidst the rising tension.

"Let us find a way to resolve this without bloodshed." He added.

The rival Alpha, a formidable figure with eyes as cold as steel, regarded Seungcheol with suspicion. "You think you can just waltz in here and dictate terms to us?" he snarled. "This is our territory, our domain."

As the rival Alpha and his pack approached, their eyes scanning the assembled wolves with predatory intent, they expected to see fear and submission amongst the non alpha's.

But as their gaze fell upon Jeonghan, they were met with something unexpected.

Jeonghan stood tall and unyielding, his gaze meet theirs, sending a shiver down the rival packs spines.

There was no fear in his eyes, no hint of submission. Instead, there was a quiet strength, a defiance that spoke of a wolf who refused to be cowed.

The rival Alpha's lip curled in disdain, his eyes narrowing as he attempted to assert his dominance with the force of his gaze alone. But Jeonghan remained unfazed, his posture relaxed but unwavering.

"Submit," the rival Alpha growled, his voice laced with menace. "Know your place." He demanded.

But Jeonghan simply tilted his head, a small smirk playing at the corners of his lips. "I don't submit to anyone," he replied, his voice calm but firm. "Least of all to you."

The rival Alpha's fury boiled over, his control slipping as he lunged forward, intent on asserting his dominance through force.

But before he could make a move, Seungcheol stepped forward, grabbing the rival by the neck.

"ENOUGH" Seungcheol yelled, shocking them all. "We're here to find a peaceful resolution, not to engage in pointless displays of dominance." Seungcheol said, quickly letting go of the other Alpha's neck.

The rival Alpha hesitated, his gaze flickering between Seungcheol and Jeonghan.

With a final, disdainful glance at Jeonghan, the rival Alpha turned on his heel and retreated, his pack following suit.

And as they disappeared into the depths of the forest, the tension that had gripped the clearing began to ease, replaced by a sense of relief and triumph.
