Lyra's
I suddenly woke up, my heart racing. I felt sweat forming on my forehead while I attempted to understand the environment around me. The familiar smell of pine and dirt entered my nose, connecting me to the earth.
"I murmured, just a dream, but the words lacked substance."
The recent happenings kept playing over in my head like a distorted film. Gabriel's act of betrayal, the ensuing battle, and my eventual triumph all felt incredibly unreal.
I lifted myself up, grimacing at the imaginary pain in my side caused by Gabriel's claws. However, upon checking, there was no visible injury. No mark. No changes.

The anger that had taken over me...I jolted awake, my heart pounding."Take it easy," a voice that was recognizable whispered gently. "You are out of danger."I looked over and noticed Gabriel by the bed, with dark circles under his eyes indicating that he hadn't slept.

She halted a short distance from me, alternating her gaze between myself and the White Stag."Luna Lyra," she exclaimed, her voice traveling through the clearing and quieting the audience. I have to confess, I had some skepticism about you. Numerous uncertainties.I aligned my back, looking directly into her eyes without wavering. I am aware that you did it, Elder Zara.

Gabriel POVI paced restlessly in my office, my muscular frame taut with pent-up energy. Those damn Silvermoon omegas were at it again, their constant attempts to undermine my authority grating on my last nerve. "Those omegas are up to something again," I growled, unable to mask my annoyance. Talon, my most trusted beta, nodded in solemn agreement. "They never learn, do they? After the humiliation we handed their alpha during the last conflict, you'd think they'd know better than to challenge your supremacy."Flashes of our previous confrontation with the Silvermoons played through my mind in vivid detail.
