Chapter 5: Tension with the Packs
Last Updated:

As she regained her strength, whispers began to ripple through both territories—faint murmurs at first, building into a storm of speculation. The Ravenwood Pack, Serena’s family, had begun to suspect that her absence was not a matter of recovery but something more sinister. **Why hadn’t she returned? What were the Thornhearts hiding?**
From his position as her protector, Darius sensed the brewing storm on the horizon. The strained peace between the packs was delicate, hanging by a thread, and he knew that Serena’s continued stay with the Thornhearts could snap that fragile thread.

The confrontation with Cedric had left Serena emotionally drained. She had maintained her composure, but the act of facing someone she had once trusted deeply had taken its toll. As the pack members dispersed from the gathering hall, Serena lingered, letting the weight of the moment settle over her. Her father, Galen, approached her first. His presence, always commanding and steadfast, now felt softer, tinged with quiet pride and lingering sorrow. Galen had always been a pillar of strength for the pack, but as Serena looked at him now, she realized how deeply this betrayal must have cut him, too. “Serena,” Galen said gently, his voice breaking the silence. “You handled that with more strength and grace than I could have imagined.
