### Summary
Following the public display of his ruthless protective instincts, Kim Shin's brutal retribution continues, providing readers with a satisfying conclusion to the conflict with the red-headed antagonist. The narrative reinforces Shin’s authority as a rare "awakened alpha," whose legal privileges justify the other alphas' non-interference in his violent campaign. However, Shin's rage has escalated to an indiscriminate level, causing him to lash out at his own subordinates or uninvolved security personnel, a development that has generated mixed feelings among the audience. Meanwhile, Song Yeon-woo, having just engineered his own escape from kidnappers, is shown to be in a state of heightened anxiety and trauma, now running from what appear to be Shin's own men. This creates a deeply fraught emotional landscape for their impending reunion. Readers are simultaneously eager for the couple to reunite and nervous about the outcome, hoping Shin can calm Yeon-woo and will finally reveal their shared past, bringing the story toward its climax.
