LOGINAllischa closed the door carefully before joining her, amber eyes reflecting unusual uncertainty. "Your music tonight... it reached something in me I can't fully explain."
The phantom sensation pulsed with quiet triumph as Lilly felt Kenny and Axel's matching response through their bond. "Music often expresses what words cannot," she offered gently.
"Alpha Awie said something similar," Allischa admitted, her gaze drifting toward the moon hanging low over Riverwood's forests. "That it bypasses rational defenses to speak directly to something deeper."
Lilly nodded, careful not to press for more than Allischa was ready to share. "His sister plays the harp, doesn't she? He seems to understand music's power quite intuitively."
"He unders
As they celebrated Lilly's success, Luka couldn't help but feel hopeful about the future. If Lilly could excel in the human world while maintaining her werewolf identity, maybe there was a way for all of them to balance their dual natures.Later that evening, they gathered in the Alpha's study for a video call with Lilly and Luna Harmony. Lilly's face was flushed with excitement as she recounted her performance."It was amazing," she gushed. "When I started playing, everything else just faded away. It was like the music was flowing through me.""We're so proud of you, sweetheart," Alpha Riverwood said, his voice thick with emotion.As Lilly continued to share details about the competition and the other
As she left, closing the door behind her, the three boys shared a knowing look. Their surprise was safe, and more importantly, they could see how much their support meant to Lilly."We're doing the right thing," Luka said quietly. "She needs this - needs us - more than she lets on."Kenny and Axel nodded in agreement, their expressions determined. They would make sure Lilly felt their love and support every step of the way, no matter the distance between them.As they headed down to dinner, Luka felt a renewed sense of purpose. The road ahead might be challenging, but together, they would face whatever came their way. And with each small act of love and support, they were building a foundation for a future where their unconventional family could thrive.
As he left the study, Luka felt a renewed sense of purpose. With the flower plan approved and the knowledge that Lilly's special projects were progressing well, he felt more confident than ever that they could navigate the challenges ahead. Together, as a family and a pack, they would support Lilly in both her human and werewolf endeavors, ensuring that she never had to choose between her two worlds.With his father's approval secured, Luka felt a surge of excitement as he sought out Kenny and Axel to share the good news. He found them in the pack's training area, sparring under the watchful eye of one of the older pack members."Hey guys," Luka called out as he approached. "Got a minute?"Kenny and Axel paused their match, both looking slightly out of breath but eager to hear what Luka had
"I know," Luka said. "I just wish there was more I could do to help."His mother smiled, reaching out to squeeze his hand. "You're doing more than you realise, Luka. Your support, your understanding, it means the world to Lilly. And to Kenny and Axel, too."Luka nodded, feeling some of the tension ease from his shoulders. "Thanks, Mom. I just want everything to work out for them.""It will," Luna Harmony said with quiet confidence. "The Goddess has a plan for all of us. We just need to have faith and do our best to support each other."As his mother left, Luka felt a renewed sense of purpose. He couldn't solve all of Lilly's problems or eliminate the challenges she faced. But he could be there for her,
Luka felt a surge of affection for his sister. "You don't have to apologize, Lilly. I understand wanting to keep some things private."She nodded, a small smile tugging at her lips. "Thanks. It's just... I'm working on something special. For Kenny and Axel's coming of age ceremonies, and... well, for mine too, eventually."Luka nodded, careful not to reveal that he already knew this information. "That's really thoughtful of you, Lil. I'm sure they'll love whatever you're creating."Lilly's eyes lit up with excitement. "I hope so. I want it to be perfect, you know? Something to symbolize our bond, even if we can't be open about it yet."As she spoke, Luka could see the depth of her feelings for Kenny and
“Why doesn’t your sister usually attend the competition that she’s going to next weekend?” Axel asked surprised that she would turn down a chance to play her violin.Luka paused, considering how to respond to Axel's question. He knew there was more to Lilly's usual avoidance of this particular competition than she had let on at dinner."Well," Luka began carefully, "it's not just about the competition itself. This particular event... it tends to attract a lot of attention from the human world. Scouts from prestigious music schools, talent agents, that sort of thing."Kenny's brow furrowed. "But isn't that a good thing? For Lilly's future as a violinist?"Luka nodded slowly. "In some ways, yes. But it also complicates things for us
