Finding Estella's bracelet in the forest yesterday always worries me, and a small voice interrupts my thoughts. Elara tugged at my hand with a pout on her face. "Mommy, Daddy, you've been so busy lately. You never have time to play with me."

I crouched down to her level, my heart melting at her adorable expression. "I'm sorry, sweetheart. Mommy and Daddy have had a lot on our plates recently. But we promise to spend more time with you, okay?"

Elara's pout turned into a bright smile, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "It's okay, Mommy. I have a new friend to play with now."

I raised an eyebrow, curious. "A new friend?"

Elara nodded eagerly. "Yes! His name is Ethan, and he's really nice. He's the grandson of Elder Dawson from the Blood Moon Clan."

Lucas chuckled, his eyes twinkling. "Oh, really? And what do you and Ethan do together?"

Elara's face lit up as she recounted her adventures with Ethan. They would explore the woods, play hide and seek, and even have picnics. But what c

    ArianaMy victory had left Seraphina bitter and furious, her eyes seething with jealousy and resentment. As I walked through the clan grounds, I could feel her gaze burning into my back.My father's change in attitude towards me was both surprising and unsettling. Gone were the days of his indifference; now, he treated me with an air of respect and reverence. I couldn't help but feel conflicted, wondering if his newfound support was genuine or merely a result of my recent triumph."You think you've won, don't you?" she sneered. "But I know your true intentions. You've conspired with the Blood Moon Clan to steal my birthright!""Father, she must be cheating, her wolf is fake, all this is a conspiracy between her and Lucas!"I met her gaze, my own eyes steady and resolute. "Sister, you know that's not true," I replied, my voice calm. "My only goal was to prove my worth and protect our clan."She scoffed, her laughter bitter and mocking. "Protect the clan?

    ArianaMy heart pounded in my chest as I stood at the heart of the turmoil, watching my mother's once graceful form contort and shift into a twisted reflection of herself. The moon mark on her back glowed with an unnatural light, a silver beacon against her silvery hair. My father, usually strong and resolute, knelt beside her, his eyes brimming with anguish and helplessness. He was trying to contain her, to protect her, but the toxins were stronger than anything he could do."Father, stay away from her, mother has lost her mind, she will attack you!""No, I can't, it's all my fault."My father tried to hug my mother, but my mother's eyes were red, her teeth were bared, and the wolf's claws scratched my father's face with blood."Father!" I yelled.The father was helpless, held back his grief and knocked his mother down with his backhand.I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists, my body quivering with a mixture of fear and determination. My mother's transformation wasn't an isolated

    Ariana"Ariana, I'm back!"Hearing Lucas' voice, I breathed a sigh of relief.“Alpha Andrew, this is the antidote. “Lucas handed the medicine to my father.My father's expression showed a touch of emotion, “Thank you, Alpha Lucas.”“And there is one problem, this medicine is only an experimental product, and it can only last for a week. We need to find the real antidote as soon as possible."After feeding his mother the medicine, the father asked, "Where can I find the antidote?"Black Moon Clan." Lucas replied with a serious expression, "You should know that the Black Moon Clan is making a medicine that can control werewolves. The reason why many of our Blood Moon Clan werewolves disappeared is because of this experiment."“Yes... I used to turn a blind eye to their experiments, and now, it's setting fire to our pack.”The werewolves had regained their sanity, the wildness that had consumed them finally abating.

    ArianaLeaving the crowd, I encountered a man. Although his skin had darkened significantly, I recognized his face at a glance. He stood before Lucas and me, causing me to involuntarily halt my steps. I don't want to meet him with Lucas at this time."Ariana, it's been a long time," the man said. He smiled, his tone carrying a hint of sadness. "You've grown beautifully confident. I almost didn't recognize you. And congratulations."Familiar yet unfamiliar, Rennes, the person I used to have a secret crush on. He was the son of a friend of my father. In our childhood, we used to play together. Back then, I thought we'd always be together. But later, I found out he had slept with my sister, and my innocent crush came to an abrupt end."Thank you, Rennes. When did you come back?" I looked at him calmly, and the sense of distance in my tone stunned him for a moment."About two years ago. I heard recently that you got married to…""Ariana, who is he?" Lucas interrupted our conversation, st

    Ariana’s POVLucas's eyes softened as he tried to explain. "The Black Moon Clan is a very dangerous place, and we need to keep you safe. Your mom and I will do everything we can to find the antidote and come back to you. I promise."Elara wasn't convinced. She looked at me, her eyes pleading. "Mommy, can I please go with you?"I knelt down beside her, brushing a strand of her hair away from her face. "Sweetheart," I said softly, "I wish you could come with us, but it's too risky. We don't want anything to happen to you."She looked down, her disappointment palpable. Lucas, not one to give up easily, extended his pinky finger towards her. "How about this?" he suggested with a warm smile. "We make a pinky promise that I'll come back for you, and we'll have a big adventure together."Elara's eyes lit up at the idea of a pinky promise. She wrapped her tiny finger around Lucas's, sealing the pact. "Okay," she said with a small smile, "but you have to come back, okay?"He nodded solemnly. "

I couldn't help but tease Lucas, knowing how he always enjoyed playing along. "Well, darling," I began, "that's something your Papa and I will have to think about."Lucas grinned, his eyes dancing with mischief. "Indeed, Ariana. Maybe we'll have to consult the moon and the stars for the right time."Our daughter, however, was having none of it. She stamped her furry paw on the ground playfully. "Come on, you two! You're just trying to avoid giving me a straight answer."Lucas chuckled and ruffled her fur affectionately. "You're too smart for your own good, little one."With a shy grin,

Many wolves were afflicted by a terrible curse, and the Alpha was gravely injured. It was during this crisis that the Alpha began wearing a mask."My heart sank as I connected the dots. "So, the Alpha's mask is related to the curse caused by the alchemist's potion?"The woman nodded solemnly. "Yes, dear.

It was as if a new personality had taken over."The revelation sent shivers down my spine.
