LOGINDuring the Bluemoon Festival, Viola felt her mate bond with Edward, the Alpha of the Winterblood Pack. Edward and Viola believed they were fated mates. They were married, but Edward was always cold and didn't even touch Viola on their wedding night. Viola was sad, but she always tried to give her best for the Alpha because she realized her position as Luna. One night, Viola felt very happy because, finally, the Alpha came to her and mated with her. But when they finished making love, Viola just realized that there was something strange about the Alpha's body. "Did he always have a tattoo there?" Viola wondered.

Her wolf instincts felt threatened by Luna's presence.Alpha George immediately grabbed Seraphine’s arm with a gentle but firm grip."Enough," he said."Seraphine, this isn't necessary..." George tried to reason with her."Not necessary what?" Seraphine interrupted calmly.Her gaze returned to me, tracing from the top of my head to the tips of my shoes as if assessing every detail."I just wanted to greet the heir to the Carpathian," she continued.She put on the same polite smile that was anything but warm. Her eyes were truly those of an ice princess. I felt like I was being stripped naked there."I appreciate the welcome," I replied flatly."Oh, of course." She touched her hair with an elegant gesture."It must be exhausting, right? A long journey and rituals that are quite taxing on an unaccustomed body."George immediately turned to me, worry flashing in his eyes. Seraphine noticed
14Viola's POV Now that the welcoming ritual is over. The blue fire slowly began to fade, and the Carpathian air returned to its calm state. The elders and guards slowly dispersed, leaving the open field behind them.With a tired expression, I stared at the blue fire that was slowly dying out. My father approached me, his face looking tired even though the look of pride had not faded."Viola, we will be escorted to rest," he said."Yes, Dad." I nodded without taking my eyes off the fire, feeling a strange emptiness inside me.Soon, a man approached us. He introduced himself as Beta Rowan, a tall man with broad shoulders and a calm demeanor. Beta bowed respectfully to my father."Elder Harry, allow me to escort you to the elders' quarters. Your room has been prepared.""All right."My Dad then nodded at me, as if to make sure I was okay before leaving. When I nodded back, he followed Rowan, his robe fluttering in the night breeze.Now only Alpha George and I remained. I realized that
13Viola's POV My father and I walked for quite a long time, and finally we arrived at the Carpathian Mountains, the territory of the Nightclaw Pack.When we arrived, the snow was the first thing that struck me.Small flakes stuck to my eyelashes as my father and I stepped out of the forest. The wind hit my face like a mourning spirit, its howl echoing between the sharp, ancient-fanged cliffs.This place... felt very familiar to me. Lily shifted inside me with a shiver."Home," she whispered.The word made my chest tremble strangely. I just nodded without answering her.Father walked a few steps ahead of me. His robe fluttered in the mountain wind. I could feel his magic was heavier here, as if the land recognized him. Recognized us.Slowly, torchlight began to appear among the trees. It was followed by the sound of footsteps that were regular, heavy, and cautious"The Nightclaw guards," Father muttered softly. "Don't look down when they inspect you.""Okay, Dad."

12Viola's POVA chill pierced through my bones as my consciousness slowly returned. I didn't know where I was now. There was only the scent of damp earth, juniper smoke, and the whisper of spells swirling around me. The air felt heavy, as if every breath I took swallowed fragments of fog filled with memories and fears.My eyes slowly opened. I stared up at the sky above me. It was no longer the forests of Silvermoon or Winterblood. This forest was dark, dense, with stars that seemed distant and foreign."Dad?" My voice was hoarse and barely audible.Not far from the rock I was leaning against, I saw a gray-robed figure standing near a small fire. His face was illuminated by the firelight, revealing old lines and eyes as sharp as an eagle's. Elder Harry turned slowly."Don't speak yet. You're still too weak," he said calmly.I tried to get up, but my body refused. My stomach felt like it was being squeezed from the inside. Lily whimpered weakly in my mind.
