"How is she, Rowena? She's all right, isn't she?”

Rowena turned to Jemma, who had been wringing her hands the whole time. Then she replied, "Yes, she's fine. You don't need to worry. She's just tired and needs to rest. After she sleeps, she'll be fine.”

There wasn't the slightest doubt in Rowena's voice. Not only because Vione had two wolf spirits that would always protect her, but also because of the Amerotha Forest.

Rowena wouldn't risk Vione's safety. After learning that the power of the Amerotha Forest was Vione's power, she decided not only to call upon it during the healing ritual. She had done something else to ensure Vione's safety even more.

"Oh, thank goodness," Jemma said with great relief. Then she patted Rowena on the shoulder. "Thank you."

Rowena stood and looked around the room. "Now let her sleep in peace."

They nodded and one by one left Usher's room, where Vione was now resting. Meanwhile, Usher decided to stay a little longer.

Usher moved closer and sat down on the

    The Nimbria Pack steeled their hearts and their resolve. They were forced to put aside all their grief and loss, if only for a moment. They could not allow themselves to wallow in grief. Instead, they would use it all as fuel to ignite their fighting spirit."There is no other way," Torin said, looking at his trusted comrades. "The only way to avenge all this pain is to kill Vione and conquer the Frostholm Pack. We will burn Frostholm to the ground. We must kill them all without exception.”James and the others nodded. Their determination was fierce. The desire for revenge, to destroy the Frostholm Pack and to kill Vione had become a vow of death that they would follow, no matter what obstacles or challenges stood in their way."Good enthusiasm, Torin, but I hope you haven't forgotten that the Frostholm Pack is full of cunning people.”A voice interrupted the conversation. Torin and the others turned to the door. They saw Connor enter, his face grave."Papa.”Connor approached Torin, h

    “Like father, like daughter.”In this single sentence spoken by Connor, a multitude of emotions and meanings were conveyed. It was not just an ordinary saying, but a release of all the hatred and vengeance he had carried for years, ever since Bethany's death.Connor had been tormented by that anger and suffering. Not a day went by that he wasn't consumed by grief, still unable to avenge Bethany's death. His pride was wounded. He felt ashamed that to this day he had not been able to bring peace to Bethany in her final rest.Days turned into weeks. Months turned into years. It had been a long time for Connor, waiting for the Frostholm Pack to fall. As his final promise, he would give Bethany a view of the Frostholm Pack's devastated territory, watching from above.To complete this revenge, Connor was determined to ensure the death of everyone connected with Ivan as a sacrifice for Bethany's life. He would kill Rowena and Vione.Unfortunately, all his promises had to be postponed once ag

    “Moon Goddess. I have heard from Cora that Luna Vione is well, but she needs rest. So, I beg you, grant her a peaceful and serene rest. Please watch over her as she always watches over us.”“I thought I would die soon, but that hope came back with Luna Vione's return. She has been through so much. Please bless her.” There have been so many voices in Vione's mind lately. Especially after she had been reunited with Usher and the healing ritual had been completed. Exhausted, she had decided to rest, and from that moment everything began.It all came from the forest of Amerotha, and it was the voice of the pack that worried about her. They gathered there, gazing up at the night sky, sometimes at the morning sky, just to pray for her. All those prayers and hopes flowed like a never-ending melody, soothing Vione in her sleep.Vione remained in bed. Her rest was undisturbed, even though those voices managed to make her soul smile deep inside. Even her two wolf spirits curled up comfortably,

    For Usher, Vione's welfare was above all else, inextricably bound up with the interests of the pack. He couldn't choose between the two, but for now he was forced to postpone his meeting with his trusted advisors because of the report from an Omega watching over Vione.Usher hurried off and met Scott on his way to the room. They went together, and the worry they felt vanished in an instant when they saw that Vione was awake.At least they were relieved that Vione seemed to be all right. After a quick but thorough examination, Scott was able to assure them that Vione showed no signs of illness. So, the only reason for Vione's expression of anger must be that something had happened. That was their conclusion.Vione looked at Usher. Can we talk alone?Alone? Usher's eyes narrowed slightly. Then he answered. Of course.Usher turned and ordered everyone to leave the room. Now it was just the two of them.“What do you want to talk about?” Usher asked bluntly a moment later. “Tell me.”Vione

    "No, Luna. I don't know what you're talking about. I swear. Alpha, please. I didn't do what Luna is accusing me of."Mariah's denials came in waves as Garth and Berg arrived shortly after. She tried again and again to defend herself, claiming that Vione's accusations were completely unfounded and untrue. But it was all in vain as Vione remained firm in her conviction."Please," Mariah pleaded, her face drenched in tears. She looked at Usher with pleading eyes. "Believe me, Alpha. I didn't do anything."Usher paused, torn by the uncertainty that filled his mind. It had been so long ago, and even then, he hadn't been sure if someone had really been watching them from behind the bushes, as Vione had once claimed—the person Vione now believed to be Mariah."Berg," Usher didn't want to act rashly. He had to find out the truth, and to do that he had to make sure the situation remained under control. "Secure her."Berg nodded and ordered two guards to keep a close eye on Mariah. Mariah cried

    Even over the phone, Greisy could feel Torin's anger. So, it wasn't surprising that it took extra courage for her to continue speaking.“The Bernathra magic that plagued the Frostholm Pack has been neutralised. Their ability to heal themselves has returned to normal. Worse, Rowena has helped Scott by making a potion that will speed up their recovery.”Greisy paused and waited. But there was no answer from Torin.“I'm sorry, Alpha. There's nothing I can do,” Greisy added quickly, trying to suppress her fear even though her voice was shaking. “Besides, I can confirm that the strength of the Frostholm Pack—”Greisy's words hung in the air as the call ended abruptly. She glanced quickly at the screen of her phone and saw that Torin had unilaterally ended the call.Closing her eyes, Greisy let out a deep breath. In her heart she thought. Alpha Torin must be furious about this situation.Unfortunately, there was nothing Greisy could do about it. She'd never imagined that the Frostholm Pack

    Standing not far from Usher and Vione, Ayla, the Sacred Elder who was always present at every trial, could hardly believe that the defendants that night were Mariah and Greisy. She was shaken. While she didn't know Greisy personally, Mariah was another story. They were close—so close that Ayla needed time to calm herself and clear her mind.Ayla exhaled deeply. "I would never have thought that the woman who once cared for Alpha Usher with such tenderness could be someone so devoid of compassion."Mariah scoffed, then smiled. "I'm sorry, Ayla. I guess I've let you down."The pain was almost unbearable. For the first time in her life, Ayla felt the sting of betrayal. She couldn't stop the tears from welling up in her eyes."Oh! Would you like to know something interesting, Ayla?" Mariah asked without waiting for an answer. A second later she continued, "That war, when we came out of the secret passage and were captured by the warriors of the Nimbria Pack, it was all..."Ayla shook her h

    The silence of the night was suffocating. Not a sound was to be heard. The nocturnal creatures that usually chirp merrily were nowhere to be seen, as if they were hiding, sensing the tension that was spreading everywhere.The clouds moved slowly. Their flow seemed to have stopped, perhaps waiting for the inevitable collision, bracing themselves for whatever might unfold.The wind blew fiercely, rustling through the leafless branches, carrying a chilling aura that enveloped the entire area.Above all, a full moon hung low in the dark sky, its presence a silent witness, staring coldly down at the two large packs facing each other on the battlefield.The Frostholm pack stood firm on the north side, their ranks tight and determined. Their sharp eyes stared ahead, fixed on the enemies who had caused them so much pain and suffering for so many years.Usher personally led the Frostholm Pack, standing at the front with a straight posture and eyes full of determination. Beside him stood Garth,

    Vione couldn't answer Jemma's words. Her heart was truly touched and she fell silent, only able to look at Usher, knowing that everything Jemma had said was the undeniable truth. Pregnancy was always a happy announcement. But Vione's pregnancy was more than joy; it was a blessing. For Usher, Jemma, Rowena and the Frostholm Pack, Vione's pregnancy was the greatest gift the Moon Goddess had given them. So, it was no surprise that when the palace announced Vione's pregnancy, the entire pack rejoiced and celebrated everywhere. Without exception, the news spread to the farthest corners of the Frostholm Pack territory. Smiles and beaming eyes adorned the faces of every member of the pack. They continued to give thanks for all the good things that had happened to the pack—from their victory in the war to Vione's pregnancy—and they didn't forget to pray for Vione's wellbeing. Ayla, the Sacred Elder, made hasty preparations. She arranged for a blessing ceremony for Vione's pregnancy to be h

    There was a bright, blinding light. It seemed to be the morning sun, its warmth soothing her soul. Vione wasn't alone. Next to her was Usher, always holding her hand. They were talking, laughing, when suddenly a scene made her eyes widen. "Sylvia, come back! Don't go too far! Oh, God! Silas, can you go after her?"Usher pulled Vione into his arms. "Don't worry, she won't get lost. They're smart kids." "Usher," Vione groaned, pressing her lips together and raising her hand to point. "That's too—" Vione frowned. Something was holding her hand. Something was stroking the back of her hand, squeezing her fingers. "U-Usher." "Vione? Are you awake?" Usher's voice echoed in her head, like the buzzing of a thousand bees, driving that beautiful memory from her mind. It made her slightly dizzy and she moaned softly. "Vione? Can you hear my voice?" Vione frowned and slowly opened her eyes. She saw Usher's face, filled with immeasurable relief. "Usher." "Oh, thank God," Usher whispered, k

    The meeting was only ten minutes old—it had only just started—and the first presentation had only just been given, but Usher's concentration was already disturbed. He couldn't concentrate on the data being presented. His mind kept wandering back to Vione. He had tried to ignore it, but suddenly his heart was pounding with an unfamiliar rhythm.Usher held his breath. Vione. Had something happened to her?At the same time, Usher saw Garth reach into the inside pocket of his suit. He watched as Garth stepped out of the meeting to take a phone call and for some reason Usher was certain that the call had something to do with Vione.Usher's intuition was right. Immediately after the call, Garth approached him and whispered in his ear."Alpha, Cora just reported that Luna fainted at a banquet—"Usher immediately got up from his seat. He left and Garth quickly said, "The meeting will be postponed."Then Garth hurried after Usher. They left the office five minutes later, Garth driving as fast

    Two days later Rowena was ready. With her was Cora, whom Usher had specially assigned to accompany her on her journey.Rowena cupped Vione's cheeks. "Don't worry, Vione. We'll see each other often. Besides, it's the only way I can make up for leaving you as a baby.""No, Mama." Vione held Rowena's hands. "You did it so I could live with other werewolves. I understand that."Still, Rowena's guilt remained. So, she promised to make up for it with happiness and togetherness in the future."I hope you take good care of yourself, Mama," Vione said, calming her heart. Then she took off the moon necklace she was wearing. She put the moon necklace into Rowena's hand. "Let me know if anything happens."Rowena nodded. "Of course."Vione and Usher watched Rowena leave, certain that this wasn't goodbye. In truth, they were just living apart. They would keep in touch. They would still meet and visit. So, everything would be fine. There was nothing to worry about.That was what Rowena believed too.

    Vione's hope was the promise she had made to Ivan. After so much suffering and sacrifice, there was only one thing she wanted most: to live a peaceful life surrounded by those she loved—Usher, Jemma and Rowena.They were owed many happy days because of the tragedies that had unfolded over the years, along with the war. Now Vione simply wanted to repay that debt by enjoying their time together, especially with Rowena.For countless days, Vione had longed for the loving touch of her biological parents. Despite the fact that her life with Addy and Hilary had been happy and full of love, she could not deny that deep down there was a part of her that longed for the warmth and love of her real parents. And when she learned that Ivan was long gone, all her hopes were placed in Rowena.Vione wanted to experience the affection she had only imagined. She wanted to spend endless days with Rowena in the palace. But it seemed that Rowena had other thoughts than her own."W-what do you mean, Ma?" V

    Silence. Ivan and Rowena both stood still, staring at Vione without blinking."I'm meeting Usher, Dad," Vione said again. She pouted as she continued, "We've been dating since the night of the Coming-of-Age Ceremony." Her face flushed, obviously embarrassed. "When we were celebrating at the palace, and that's when we..."Vione didn't finish her sentence, but both Ivan and Rowena understood. They could guess what had happened that night. But one thing was still unclear to them.Ivan cleared his throat. He rubbed his chin, looking puzzled. "Usher?" he asked. "Which Usher are you talking about?""Papa," Vione groaned, feeling even more helpless. She was completely embarrassed. "There's only one Usher I know, the one you both know, Usher Thorne."Ivan's mouth opened, but no words came out. He seemed genuinely shocked and needed a little more time to fully process the name Usher Thorne.Ivan stared at Vione. "Usher Thorne?"The doorbell rang at the same moment. Vione's eyes widened.

    A month had passed since the war against the Nimbria Pack, and now normal days were once again colouring the Frostholm territory. Everyone carried on with their activities as before, full of energy and joy. The children played and went to school without a trace of fear, while the adults worked diligently, occasionally breaking into light chatter and laughter.There were no worries. Fear and anxiety about the future had vanished, replaced by happy, vibrant faces. They knew that the danger that had loomed over them for years had been overcome.On the other hand, the peace that now surrounded the Frostholm Pack did not lull Usher into complacency. He refused to become arrogant. Instead, the tragedy that had befallen the Nimbria Pack had taught him many lessons. He would not be careless and would make sure that this would never happen again.As a basis for preventive measures, Berg continued to increase security throughout the territory. Inspections of outsiders became more thorough and r

    A heavy silence had fallen over the Frostholm territory since the night before. The area was truly desolate, with no sign of the Frostholm pack except for Berg and the guards stationed everywhere to protect the borders and the palace. The rest of the pack had evacuated to Amerotha Forest, hiding under the protection of Rowena's magic.The tension was palpable. The members of the pack seemed restless, their minds filled with fear, even though their safety was guaranteed within the forest. They knew that this security did not extend to those fighting in the war; there was no guarantee of safety for them.No one could close their eyes. They couldn't even stay in their tents. Instead, they chose to gather together and pray without ceasing.Hope poured from the depths of their hearts. Every prayer was accompanied by sincerity, and many shed tears. Their sorrow ran deep, and the Amerotha Forest could feel it.A blue-golden light slowly emerged, flowing from the ground and spreading everywhe

    One thing Usher would remember for the rest of his life was that war never brought anything good. On the contrary, only bad things came out of war—death, pain, loss, suffering. For this reason, he would do everything in his power to ensure that there would be no more wars in the future—at least not in his lifetime—even if it meant making extreme choices.Usher hated war and he hated killing, but this time he put those feelings aside to ensure the safety of the Frostholm Pack. He had learned from experience that Kendrick's compassion could never touch the humanity of the Nimbria Pack. In truth, greed had blinded the Nimbria Pack, causing them to ignore the opportunity presented by the Frostholm Pack. Worse still, the Nimbria Pack saw Kendrick's decision as a sign of weakness, leading them to attack again whenever they had the chance.So, this time, Usher abandoned all compassion and humanity. The Nimbria Pack didn't deserve it. Instead, he would make sure that the Nimbria Pack felt all
