"So be it, my little she-wolf," Garrett growled.　　To Lily's surprise, Garrett spun her around and pinned her against the shower's glass wall. In the sun-lit bathroom, their bodies intertwined, and Garrett's calloused hand traced a path down the woman's slender side. With a gentle yet firm grip on her hip, he pulled her closer, their bodies fitting together seamlessly. In the heat of the moment, their bodies intertwined, their desires reaching a fever pitch. As their passion intensified, his once soft touch grew firm and eager, pressing against her with a sense of urgency.　　Garrett's hand gently caressed a full breast, causing a soft moan to escape from her delicate, plush lips as he skillfully massaged her nipple, gradually transforming it into a firm nub. Her head rolled lazily back to rest on his chest as he slowly nibbled his way down the smooth, pale column of her neck. She raised one hand, burying her thin fingers in his hair, and melted against him in the hot, gentle spray of

　　"This is a problem. I thought doctors had found a way to keep this from happening," Garrett said, his voice filled with concern and a touch of frustration. The days when heat cycles would throw the whole were community into chaos were before him, but the stories of bloodshed and turmoil still echoed in his mind. The mere thought of Lily causing such a disruption made him uncomfortable.　　'She is a rejected and unmated female that you keep overstimulating. It was bound to happen," Berric replied, his tone matter of fact.　　'This is your fault as well,' Garrett responded, a hint of defensiveness creeping into his voice.　　'If you had allowed me to mark her or marked her yourself, we wouldn't be facing this situation,' Berric retorted.　　'You're right, but you also know it wouldn't be right to mark her now. We made that decision together,' Garrett said, the weight of responsibility heavy on his shoulders. 'Regardless of the reasons, we need to find a solution. We can't afford to let thi

　　"I am nervous," Lily said, her voice trembling slightly as she sat in the plush interior of the limousine. Tiffany reached over and gently squeezed her hands, offering reassurance.　　Garrett and Adam left before Lily as Alpha Jack requested their appearance on an important matter. Lily thought she would be walking in with Garrett and when she found out she wasn't, her courage dropped drastically. Tiffany volunteered to walk with her after her parents approved it.　　"Don't worry, Lily. You've got this," Tiffany said, her voice confident. "You're going to be the sassy, confident woman I know you are. We'll get through this together."　　Lily nodded, her nerves gradually subsiding as Tiffany's words of encouragement sank in. The limousine came to a halt, and the driver opened the door. "Showtime. You got this," Tiffany said. Taking a deep breath, Lily and Tiffany stepped out of the vehicle, their elegance and beauty turning heads as they made their way toward the entrance of the magnific

　　Tiffany, seeing the confrontation, rushed to Lily's side. "I don't know what is going on but you need to leave Lily alone."　　"Or what, you filthy rat? What are you going to do about it?" Mandy replied, earning a hiss from Tiffany.　　Kelly, who had been observing the interaction, swiftly intervened, her voice carrying a mixture of authority and compassion. "Mandy, this is neither the time nor the place. I will not tolerate the mistreatment of one of our own."　　"You think you're so special, don't you, Lily? But you'll never be anything more than a mere Omega. Just like your mother."　　"Mandy, your words reveal more about you than they do about me," Lily retorted. "It seems that it is you that is the homewrecking whore that I knew all along you were!" Her growl earned the attention of others, and whispers began.　　"You need to think about what you say next, Mandy. You are about to escalate this into something that should not happen. Remember words are binding tonight," Kelly warned.　

　　Dina emerged from the dressing room, stretching her limbs. It had been a long time since Lily had given her full control to run freely. Surprisingly, the usual pain that accompanied the shift during the Full Moon was absent this time.　　'Why didn't it hurt?' Lily asked, curious about the unusual absence of pain.　　'It's a special night tonight. The Moon Goddess has blessed us,' Dina responded, her voice filled with awe and wonder.　　Dina shook her fur, her senses heightened, and her muscles tingling with energy. She could sense that Lily understood the significance of this night as well. As Dina made her way towards the running trail, Tiffany launched herself from a nearby tree. Dina swiftly dodged her, narrowly avoiding crashing into the snow.　　"You will eventually let me groom you, wolf," Trixie chuffed, playfully teasing her.　　Dina, surprised by the ability to communicate with Trixie, asked, "How can you speak with me? Telepathic links can only be established once an individual
