The room went silent as the councilmen stared in shock. Ivan walked over to Olev and picked him up, holding him up against the wall. "You dare question my leadership?" He growled, tightening his grip. "You have no idea what I have done to protect this pack."
Orlev struggled, trying to free himself, but Ivan's grip was like iron. "If you ever speak to me like that again, I will not hesitate to end you on the spot."
Orlev's face turned red as he gasped for air, his eyes wide with fear. The other councilmen remained frozen, too terrified to intervene.
Before the rest of the councilmen knew it, Ivan began emitting a toxic pheromone due to his intense anger. This was the first time anyone other than his parents had spoken to him that way.
His pheromones were so toxic that they could kill. All the councilmen quickly covered their noses and looked away, their faces flushed red with pain.
