Se connecterChapter FifteenSeraphina had spent most of the morning preparing for her assigned responsibility.After Alexander's warning the previous night, she had taken the time to memorize the important locations within Silvermoon Pack. She reviewed the territory's layout, the training grounds, the council hall, the medical center, and the various facilities reserved for visiting guests.She couldn't afford to embarrass herself in front of the Wolf King.When Dante finally arrived, she greeted him with a respectful bow."Good morning, Your Majesty.""Good morning, Seraphina."He glanced at the neatly arranged schedule in her hands."Have you prepared a route for our tour?""Yes, Your Majesty. We can begin with the training grounds before visiting the council hall and the guest quarters. After that, I can show you the medical center and the other important facilities."Dante listened without interrupting. "Very well. Let's go."Seraphina led the way, expecting him to follow the route Alexander
Chapter FourteenDante's wolf was not pleased.'Don't you dare choose her brother?'Dante remained seated as the banquet continued around him, his expression unreadable."I didn't choose her brother. What do you even mean?"'You know what I mean. The girl is far more interesting.'Dante almost sighed. His wolf had been unusually restless since their arrival in Silvermoon. First, it had taken an interest in the girl who nearly got herself run over by their car. Now it was insisting that she accompany him during the assembly.'If you spend every day with her brother, even a simple walk around the territory will feel like another council meeting,' his wolf complained."You cannot make decisions based on fleeting interests," Dante replied internally.'Then why haven't you changed your decision?'Dante ignored the question. Yet ultimately did not change his decision. "It's settled then. Seraphina would show me around." Dante said to the room, making everyone gasp.Across the table, Domin
Chapter ThirteenThe welcome banquet was held in the grand hall of Silvermoon Pack, where every detail had been carefully arranged to impress the Wolf King.Alphas from neighboring territories had also gathered, each eager to secure a moment of the Wolf King's attention.Dominic had spared no expense.He personally welcomed the distinguished guests, while Catherine remained close to Dante, ensuring that he lacked nothing. Alexander also joined the conversations, hoping to demonstrate his abilities as the future Alpha of Silvermoon.Meanwhile, Seraphina had been seated at the far end of the table.Nobody had bothered to include her in the important conversations, and she had no intention of forcing herself into them. Instead, she focused on the food in front of her.She had barely eaten properly in days. Her appetite had been poor because of her deteriorating health, but tonight, with so many delicious dishes available, she couldn't resist.She quietly served herself another portion.
Chapter TwelveThe following morning, Seraphina stood among her family members in the grand reception hall, struggling to keep her expression composed... She had barely slept.Every time she closed her eyes, she remembered the black SUV, the intimidating man in the back seat, and the questions he had asked. She had returned to her room safely, but the encounter had left her with another problem to worry about.What if he recognized her?What if he told someone about the girl he had found wandering near the territory's boundary in the middle of the night?She adjusted the sleeves of her dress, trying to hide how badly her hands were trembling. "Stand properly, Seraphina," Catherine whispered beside her. "The Wolf King will be here any moment. Don't embarrass us."Seraphina straightened immediately. "I understand, Luna."Catherine gave her a displeased look at the title but didn't have time to correct her.Her attention had shifted to Elara, who stood on Dominic's other side in a magn
Chapter ElevenThe night before the Alpha Council meeting, Seraphina couldn't wait any longer.Her health was deteriorating, and she knew it was only a matter of time before her family demanded another blood donation for Elara. If she stayed in Silvermoon, she might not survive the next one.Tonight was her only chance.With a small bag containing a few clothes and the little money she had managed to save, Seraphina slipped out of the residence. She hurried along the familiar path toward the territory's outskirts, keeping to the shadows whenever she heard approaching footsteps. Her legs were weak, and her breathing became increasingly difficult, but she forced herself to continue.Freedom was just ahead!She had almost reached the final turn when a pair of headlights suddenly appeared.A black SUV came speeding around the corner.Seraphina gasped and jumped aside, but her foot caught against a raised stone.She fell hard onto the ground, and her bag flew from her shoulder, scatterin
Chapter Ten Lucien's accusation destroyed whatever warmth remained in the room. He stood beside Elara, his expression still clouded with disappointment, while the others looked toward the doorway through which Seraphina had just disappeared. Dominic's face darkened. "Unbelievable. Does she have any idea how much shame she has brought upon this family?" Catherine sighed, gently stroking Elara's hair. "I don't understand her anymore. Elara has already made so many concessions, yet Seraphina refuses to let her have even the smallest thing. What more does she want? Is she really our daughter? How did we give birth to a child like that?" Alexander shook his head, disappointment written across his face. "I thought things would improve after she was discharged from the hospital. I genuinely believed she had finally understood how much trouble she had caused everyone. But it seems she was only hiding her dissatisfaction. Now she's even bullying Elara in front of our guest."
