After the grand welcoming ceremony ended, Amanda excused herself early under the pretense of poor health. She walked briskly back to the stone house nestled deep within the southern quarter of the city, her home, shared with her daughter, Evelyn.The moment the door closed behind her, Evelyn flew down the stairs like a storm. As soon as she saw her mother, she grabbed her arm tightly, her voice sharp and frantic like a small animal driven into a corner."Mother, the servants said the Luna of Ivyshade is Cara. That wretched bitch, it's her, isn't it?"Her eyes blazed with unrestrained hatred and fury, burning like a firestorm ready to consume everything in its path.Just earlier, a servant had returned from the ceremony welcoming Alpha and the Ivyshade pack to Blood Moon. She reported that the Luna of Ivyshade looked exactly like Cara, and she was absolutely certain it could only be her, because no one but Cara had ever been allowed to ride on Alpha’s back.Amanda

After a simple breakfast, Lyra and her attendants began preparing for the field inspection of the epidemic zone.As she was fastening the ties of her cloak, a group of people arrived at the guesthouse steps. Leading them was Raven, followed by Callen and Elder Marrek - the pack’s chief medical advisor.Technically, as the Alpha, Raven had no obligation to join this trip in person.But he came anyway.Partly because he was concerned about the outbreak of the epidemic. But mostly because he couldn’t bear to miss another moment beside Lyra.Even if she no longer held him in her heart, the feelings Raven had for her had never waned, like blood flowing quietly through his veins, silent yet intense.The road to the quarantine zone wasn’t long, but silence hung heavy in the air.Since leaving the guesthouse, their group passed through small villages that were once bustling with life, now reduced to hushed homes and the wary eyes of a few villagers peeking out fr

Raven led the group back into the meeting hall within the pack house. The wooden doors slammed shut behind him, the deep thud swallowing all surrounding sound.Inside, the elders had just arrived. A few of them immediately stood and approached him with concern.“Alpha, are you alright? You look…”“I’m fine,” Raven cut them off, his voice low but firm. He raised a hand, signaling them to step back. “Don’t worry about my condition. There’s something more urgent we need to address.”Without waiting for any objections, he turned to his guards. “Bring in those involved in the altercation. Now.”One elder frowned. “But they’re elite warriors, perhaps…”“I said now,” Raven snapped. His eyes flashed with cold intensity.Before long, the doors opened again. Five warriors stepped inside, their expressions still tinged with defiance, but none dared to raise their heads under Raven’s gaze.“Look up,” Raven commanded, standing tall like a pillar in the center of t

But right after that, a wave of intense dizziness hit her. Lyra felt her head spinning, her vision blurring as if shrouded by a thick fog. Her breaths came in short gasps, and her chest felt heavy, as though someone was pressing down on it. Her legs could no longer hold her up, and her entire body swayed like a dry leaf caught in the wind.She collapsed, her hand reaching for the edge of the table but missing it. Just before the impact with the floor, a pair of strong, warm arms caught her.There was no sound of pain, only the familiar scent of pinewood and the calming rhythm of steady breathing.In her haze, Lyra could feel the firmness of a chest beneath her cheek, the steady heartbeat whispering to her: she wasn’t alone.Then the darkness swallowed everything.As for Raven, after leaving the guesthouse, he didn’t return to rest. Instead, he walked alone through the pack’s garden.Every step felt heavy, as though each one dragged along a chain of unsha

After breakfast, Lyra's complexion gradually returned to a healthier hue. The dull ache in her chest that had flared with each deep breath had subsided. Though still a little fatigued, her mind was noticeably clearer.With her body no longer a hindrance, she returned to her work - finding a way to neutralize the poison of thanorite.Throughout the long day, she tirelessly repeated the process of channeling her unique ability. At last, she pierced through the thick fog and glimpsed the radiant light of truth.At that moment, three steady knocks sounded on the door.“Luna, Alpha Raven has arrived,” a servant said softly from outside. “He said he’s here to collect the antidote.”Lyra started slightly, only then realizing night had already fallen.She nodded. “Let him in.”Less than a minute later, Raven stepped inside. He wore a simple black wool cloak, its high collar turned up. His hair, tousled by the wind, fell slightly over his forehead, accentuating hi
