The excitement that surrounded the Xylvaneth Pack Palace in the early morning gave off an aura of happiness. People who had been asleep suddenly awoke as the good news spread from mouth to mouth. They immediately left their rooms and saw Landon rushing to Oscar's room.The good news was indeed true. Era, the future Luna of the Xylvaneth Pack, had come out of her coma. All the anxiety and worry that had plagued her days had vanished in an instant, leaving no trace behind."So how is she, Landon? Is she okay?"Landon finished his examination of Era. Then he turned to Oscar with a beaming smile. "Of course, Alpha. Era is perfectly fine now. You don't have to worry anymore."Oscar felt an immense sense of relief. He closed his eyes in gratitude and instinctively hugged Landon. "Thank you, Landon.""You're welcome, Alpha," Landon replied with a nod. Then he turned back to Era. "Welcome back, Era."Era smiled weakly, but felt happy. "I seem to have inconvenienced you for the umpteenth time.
Era's eyes closed briefly as she felt the morning sun wash over her entire body. It felt truly refreshing and made her wonder for a moment, does the morning sun always provide such peaceful warmth like this?See? Didn't I tell you? The sunlight here is so refreshing, but you didn't believe me before.Era smiled. This time not only because she appreciated the sunlight on her skin, but also because she could finally hear the voice of her wolf spirit again. After days of silence, she could hear the hustle and bustle again.I miss you.Era's wolf spirit startled. W-what? You miss me?Era replied. Very much. So, promise me. Never leave me. My world is really empty without you. You've always been by my side, so never leave me.Of course, Era. I'll never leave you. I'll always be with you. We'll always enjoy the morning sun like this. What do you think?A smile spread over Era's face. Of course. That's a great idea.Era spent her morning sunbathing in the palace garden. She believed that her
Ursa greeted Era's arrival with a broad smile and open arms. Then she hugged Era tenderly. Era closed her eyes and smiled as well. The warmth of the embrace made Era feel calm.One reason Era has always believed to be the cause of her calmness when she was with Ursa was her longing for a motherly figure. In addition, Ursa always had her own way of soothing Era's fears. There were times when she felt a gentle vibration emanating from Ursa's body, then spreading through her own body, and all her anxiety instantly disappeared. As if all the complications in her life had vanished without a trace through Ursa's warmth and love."You will never know, Era, how grateful I am for your recovery," Ursa whispered as she released the embrace. She created some distance so she could look at Era. "Thank you for coming back to us."Era smiled with mixed emotions. On the one hand, she felt guilty for worrying so many people. On the other hand, a part of her felt happy. Now there are so many people who
The world seemed to spin in Oscar's eyes. He took a deep breath for a moment to regain his disturbed concentration. He tried to concentrate again, but it turned out that he couldn't.Oscar closed his eyes. He pushed the laptop away from him. "Give me another task, Philo. I've been staring at that laptop screen for almost fourteen hours straight today. I'm sure if I look at the laptop screen any longer, your face will soon turn color in my eyes.""Sorry, Alpha," Philo said as he approached Oscar, who was sitting behind the desk. He glanced at his watch. "How about you go home now, Alpha? It's almost midnight. I think this work can wait until tomorrow."Oscar groaned and also looked at his watch. "The tomorrow you mean is only eight minutes away, Philo.""You need rest, Alpha, and even though there's a lot of work to be done, your health is the priority," Philo continued as a sudden thought crossed his mind. So, he spoke again, albeit with an uncertain expression. "Besides, I think you
Oscar could feel it, his blood began to boil. There was something in Era's words and manner that ignited his natural instincts. So, he remained alert, preparing himself for any possibilities that might unfold.Trying to calm himself amidst the onslaught of intuition that instantly awakened his wolfish soul, Oscar took a deep breath, trying to contain the sudden rush in his chest. He persisted and decided to halt his steps, unwilling to risk approaching Era any closer for fear that a misinterpretation of his instincts might cloud his judgment."Actually," Oscar said, furrowing his brow for a moment. He could not believe how his voice was shaking. Then he cleared his throat. "What do you want to say, Era?"Era let out a long sigh. Then she stood up and approached Oscar with a confused expression on her face. "I don't know. I just realized something after I woke up from the coma.""What is it?""There were some voices and emotions that felt strange. They weren't mine, but I could feel th
The tickling sensation Era felt suddenly disappeared. Her expression slowly changed. She looked tense and anxiety was visible in her eyes.Oscar knew that Era was in a difficult situation. All of fate and reality came so suddenly that Era was on the verge of uncertainty. He just hoped that Era would slowly accept it as time went on.Oscar's hope began to show signs of becoming reality when he received information from Ursa. Era's desire to learn and train to become a full werewolf was a good sign. However, he did not want to be too arrogant and assume that it was also a sign that Era had accepted herself.Era's reaction reinforced that thought. So, Oscar smiled and tried to suppress the disappointment that began to rise in his chest. He reassured himself that he was okay; after all, Era would still be completely his."Calm down, Era. You don't have to be so tense," Oscar said with a thin smile. In his heart he prayed that his expression did not show any signs of disappointment. "You c

The cheers were so deafening that they echoed throughout the arena, drowning out all other sounds. Applause and shouts echoed from every corner of the packed stands. Their faces were filled with enthusiasm and fervor, their eyes refusing to blink for even a second, as if they didn't want to miss a single moment of the action in the arena.Various reactions erupted from the crowd. Some held their breath as the two fighters attacked and defended with equal tenacity. Others showed expressions of awe, natural when witnessing the skill of both fighters.
