"Will you be my Luna again? Be my mate, my wife, my soulmate, and live with me in this palace?"

Brandon's calm gaze captivated Rachel. For a moment, she was at a loss for words, too shocked and moved by Brandon's proposal. She had been worrying about their status, and now Brandon had laid it all out.

"I... I..." Rachel's tears fell silently down her cheeks. Brandon smiled, gently wiping them away, but his touch only made her sob harder. She buried her face in his chest, feeling embarrassed for crying instead of replying.

Brandon chuckled softly, patting her shoulder as she wept quietly.

"I love you," Brandon whispered, kissing her temple.

Once again, his tender gesture made Rachel cry even harder. "I love you too..." she said hoarsely, burying her face into Brandon's cloak, inhaling its sweet scent.

Brandon smiled widely, resting his chin on the top of her head. He let Rachel cry, releasing all her pent-up emotions, while he occasionally planted kisses on her head.

    A thick mist shrouded the Pack Manowi castle that morning. The temperature had dropped significantly, and the cold wind blew without rest, but it didn’t dampen Armani’s spirit for training. He was determined to master every element of the exercises, guided by Brandon or Victor as his instructors. “If you can produce a blue light in your hand, then you’ve passed the first stage of this training,” Brandon explained, raising his hand to show a soft blue glow. Armani watched in awe, moving his own hand in an attempt to imitate. Unfortunately, nothing happened. His pout made Brandon laugh. “Keep practicing. Beta Victor will supervise you here,” Brandon said. He intended to check on Rachel, who seemed to have finished getting ready. “I’m going to see your mother.” “Alright, Father!” Brandon smiled, giving Armani’s shoulder a gentle pat. He then turned to his loyal Beta, standing by the hedge. “Victor, keep an eye on my son. Let me know immediately if there’s any progress with his magi

    "Are you sure you want to leave this afternoon, Sweety? Are you going alone? Without any escort?" Brandon asked worriedly, watching Rachel as she donned the ceremonial cloak of Pack Canis. After spending several days enjoying the fresh air of Pack Manowi, Rachel had decided to visit her own pack. She was worried that something might have happened during her weeks of absence. Although there had been no reports from her Beta, Alicia, Rachel felt the need to check on her pack. After all, as an alpha, she couldn’t neglect her responsibilities now that she had recovered. She couldn’t abandon her duties in Pack Canis and let it turn into a group of wild rogues. Not after she had worked so hard to tame them. Pack Canis was formed from a group of werewolves who once lived as lone wolves. While honing her own powers, Rachel had gathered them all and established her pack. It hadn’t been easy, but eventually, Rachel became a respected leader. So, she wasn’t going to abandon her pack. "Don’t

    Rachel admired her reflection in the mirror, satisfied with the dress sewn by the maids. The dress was similar to her wedding gown from the past, but with a simpler design. The skirt was not flared, and a small ribbon adorned the bodice down to her waist. Today, there was a celebration in Pack Manowi, and Brandon, as the pack’s leader, would attend. Rachel and Armani were joining as well, so she needed to prepare herself properly. "Sweety, are you done in there?" Brandon peeked his head through the doorway. He had just finished checking Armani’s preparations in his room. As the heir to Pack Manowi, Armani was bound to be the center of attention, so he needed to look perfect. "Yes, I’m coming out now," Rachel replied, waving with a sweet smile. Brandon nodded and went back to Armani’s room, intending to give him a few final instructions before they all left together. Rachel took one last look at her appearance and quickly followed Brandon. She adjusted the rose clip in her hair,

    Could Victor still be chasing him? Luxton glanced back and breathed a sigh of relief when he realized Victor had not pursued him beyond the border. It would have been a huge problem if he had been caught, as his strength was no match for Brandon’s loyal Beta. Luxton had pushed himself to run too hard, his chest burning with breathlessness. He stopped by a river, taking a moment to drink some water. His breaths came in ragged gasps, and his legs ached. Thankfully, he had managed to escape. The close call had nearly exposed his identity. As Kennedy’s spy, he had been careful not to get caught, but Victor’s instincts were incredibly sharp. Luxton splashed water on his face and knelt down on the grass, surveying the quiet forest around him before leaning his head back against a tree trunk. He had obtained crucial information: Rachel had recovered, and Armani would be officially appointed once he turned 20. This news would certainly please Kennedy. Luxton hurriedly made his w

    Rachel rolled over to the side of the bed, for what felt like the hundredth time that night. She couldn’t sleep, even though it was well past midnight. Perhaps it was because she had been resting in her room for several days straight, and now she wasn’t tired anymore. “Sweety?” Brandon’s groggy voice called out. It seemed her restless movements on the wide bed had woken him up. He moved closer and pulled Rachel into his arms. “What’s wrong? You’ve been tossing and turning.” “I can’t sleep. Sorry if I woke you up,” Rachel said, looking up at her husband. Brandon smiled. “Don’t apologize. I understand. Maybe it’s because you haven’t taken the potion lately. I’ll ask the healer about it tomorrow.” “Thank you.” “You’re welcome, my love.” Rachel chuckled and gently pulled Brandon’s head down, giving him a brief kiss. “I think I need some fresh air for a bit.” “Alone?” Brandon frowned, disliking the idea. “Just in the backyard. I won’t go far,” Rachel reassured him, planting another

    As usual, Armani was busy with his morning training routine. Rachel was trying to sew a cloak for Armani when Brandon entered the room, his face serious. Rachel quickly set down the fabric in her hands and looked at her husband. “Brandon?” “Sweety, I need to talk to you about something important,” Brandon said, taking a seat in front of Rachel. Rachel frowned. “What is it?” Brandon cleared his throat, hesitating for a moment as if unsure about how to deliver his plan. But his resolve was firm today. “I’m going to the Pack Leinz territory to challenge Kennedy to a duel.” “What?” “I know you might think I’ve let it go, but I haven’t, Rachel. My plan for revenge remains unchanged,” Brandon explained, quickly taking Rachel’s hand in his. “But you don’t need to worry. This isn’t a war involving our entire pack, just a one-on-one duel between me and Kennedy. I can’t let him keep acting recklessly and harassing you.” Rachel looked concerned, biting her lower lip as she gazed at Brand

    After calming herself, Viviane followed Kennedy to the front courtyard of the palace. There, Brandon stood fully armored, facing off against Kennedy. A silver sword, famed for its magical properties, hung at his waist. His gaze locked onto Kennedy, who didn’t look away either. The tension in the courtyard of Pack Leinz was palpable, creating an eerie atmosphere. Moments passed in silence, intensifying the suspense. A gentle breeze blew, causing the hairs on everyone’s necks to stand on end. Both Betas and the guards watched each other cautiously. Some of them were breathing shallowly, waiting for these two top-ranked Alphas to break the silence. Finally, Brandon let out a sharp breath and spoke, "I’ve come here to challenge you honorably! A one-on-one duel using the full extent of our Alpha powers. Win or lose, the stakes are Pack Manowi and Pack Leinz." Kennedy narrowed his eyes and smirked. "Are you serious about your offer?" "Of course." Brandon grinned. "I’m not one to make f

    “What did you just say, you bastard?!” Brandon growled deeply. Kennedy chuckled and pressed his hand against Brandon’s chest, forcing him to remain pitifully pinned down. “Yes, because soon enough, that poison will make you wither away, slowly destroying your organs,” Kennedy whispered. Brandon’s eyes widened in shock at those words. He struggled to free himself from Kennedy’s hold, but his strength had mysteriously vanished. Something was wrong in their duel. The poison. It was the poison that had rendered him this weak. Brandon’s gaze darted to the tip of Kennedy’s spear lying beside him, glistening with a clear liquid. He had been so focused on Kennedy that he had failed to notice the details of the weapon. Brandon cursed himself inwardly for being so careless. How could he forget Kennedy’s cunning nature—and that of his wife? Especially after Rachel’s own experience of being struck by a poisoned arrow. Brandon should have realized it earlier. They would do anything to win.

I will uphold truth and justice without fear or favoritism."Armani's voice thundered, filling the entire hall. Applause erupted once more, but outside the palace, a storm began to gather. Fierce winds and heavy rain battered the palace walls, bringing a sense that something ominous was about to unfold.In the palace's underground chambers, Viviane was preparing her final attack. She had not come alone. By leveraging a dark pact she had made with rogue wolves and shad

    The cold wind carried a mist that blurred the view ahead. The forest Viviane traversed grew denser, with towering hawthorn trees lining her path.The sunlight could no longer penetrate the thick canopy of interwoven branches. Though it was still morning, the place resembled a moonless night.Viviane wiped the sweat from her forehead and glanced at Volkov, who was sleeping soundly in her arms. The distinct scent of trees after the rain had lulled him to sleep. The place was damp and quite chilly, prompting her to find a better spot to rest."Where are we heading, Miss Viviane?" Gonder asked, scanning the unfamiliar surroundings. He and his wife were both weary and hungry, but they had found nothing edible along the way.Viviane sighed tiredly. "We should head west, toward where the sun sets."Gonder and Suzy nodded, having no other suggestion for their destination. Leading the way, Viviane secretly felt unsure of where to go, but she couldn’t afford to show her hesitation.Suddenly, so

    "Take them all out. Today, they will be taken to the border." That morning, Brandon immediately gave orders to his Beta. Following his claim and official proclamation, Brandon wanted Viviane and her followers to leave Pack Leinz immediately. Victor nodded obediently and hurried to the dungeon. Brandon then turned to Rachel, who was seated beside him. Her face was furrowed, lost in thought. “Sweety, are you alright?” “Mm, yes.” Rachel snapped out of her thoughts and pulled the corners of her lips into a smile. “I was just... just thinking about Viviane's departure and…” “What is it? Are you worried?” Brandon asked, raising an eyebrow. Rachel fiddled with the ribbon of her gown and nodded. “A little. I’m afraid she might do something after Kennedy’s death. She’s skilled at concocting poisons, and... I’m just scared she might seek revenge,” Rachel admitted, rubbing her neck uneasily. She wasn’t sure why she was suddenly dwelling on it, especially since Viviane was just an ordinary

    Rachel and Armani sprinted through the forest, their hearts pounding with both anticipation and joy. Rachel had heard from the Moon Goddess that Brandon had triumphed over Kennedy in their duel. He had taken control of Pack Leinz following Kennedy’s death in their battle. Initially, Rachel was deeply worried, knowing Kennedy and Viviane often resorted to underhanded tactics. But she was also aware that Brandon’s strength was unmatched. “Mom, are we almost there?” Armani asked, matching his mother’s pace as they navigated the dense forest. The pungent smell of moss lingered in the air after a light drizzle had fallen just moments before. “Almost there, sweetheart,” Rachel replied. “Are you tired?” “Not at all!” Armani exclaimed, shaking his head with a determined look that made Rachel chuckle. “I’m the heir to Pack Manowi, strong like my father. There’s no way I’d feel tired.” Rachel let out a soft laugh, gently patting the top of Armani’s head, charmed by his confidence. “In th

    Brandon made the announcement in a booming voice, addressing the guards, servants, Beta Gonder, Beta Suzy, Viviane, and her nine-year-old son—Volkov Li. He stood before Kennedy’s throne, with Victor positioned just below the steps. Everyone knelt before Brandon, affirming his claim over Pack Leinz. Viviane and Kennedy’s two Betas were forced to kneel under the pressure of Brandon’s overwhelming power. Viviane clenched her fists, her fury still burning deep within. Her tears had dried, but her heart was shattered beyond repair. She knew her life would change drastically after Kennedy’s death, but now she had one single purpose. She had to avenge Kennedy. She had to kill Brandon mercilessly, just as he had done to her husband. Viviane glanced at her son, who was bowing his head beside her. His face was pale and downcast, his lips sealed tight for hours. He was still deeply shaken by Kennedy’s death and Brandon’s claim over the pack that should have been inherited by Volkov. All he

    "Viviane..." Kennedy struggled to speak, his voice barely audible. He coughed violently, more blood pouring from his mouth and staining his chin and neck. Viviane was hysterical, her cries echoing in the tense silence. "No! Don’t say that! Healers! Where are the healers?!" she screamed, tears streaming uncontrollably down her cheeks. "Someone call the healers now! Why are all of you just standing there?!" "No... Viviane... I don’t think... I can hold on... any longer," Kennedy stammered, his voice faltering. His trembling hand lay weakly in Viviane’s grip, his chest rising and falling rapidly. Viviane sobbed harder, her tears falling on Kennedy’s pale face. She clung to him desperately, her world unraveling as her husband teetered on the brink of death. Around them, the crowd remained silent, their expressions grim. No one dared move or utter a word; they all knew there was nothing they could do now. Kennedy's defeat was absolute. Blood continued to pour from Kennedy’s mouth, stai
