The lost packs のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 161 - チャプター 170

*Thorn* The sun rises with a golden hue, spilling warmth over the bustling city of Catrista as I stand in front of the grand mirror in my room. Today is the day… the day I marry Teyla. My heart races with a mix of excitement and disbelief that this moment has finally arrived. The air is thick with the scent of fresh flowers, and the sound of laughter and chatter drifts through the open windows, a symphony of joy that echoes the happiness in my heart. I adjust my collar, the crisp fabric of my suit feeling foreign yet empowering as I catch a glimpse of myself, a man who has weathered storms, and yet here I stand, ready to embrace a new beginning. Amber barges in, her laughter brightening the room. She’s a whirlwind of energy as she helps straighten my tie, her hands deft and sure. “Look at you, Thorn, A handsome groom, if I do say so myself!” she teases, her eyes sparkling with mischief. I chuckle, shaking my head. “I’m just trying to keep up with my stunning bride. She’s the on

*Thorn* The moon hangs high in the sky, casting a silvery glow over the villa that now feels like our sanctum, a place where dreams intertwine with reality. The air is heavy with the scent of jasmine and sandalwood, wafting in from the garden that sprawls around us like an embrace. Teyla and I stand together on the balcony, the sounds of the evening rustling around us… a soft breeze whispering secrets of love and promises yet to be fulfilled. I turn to her, my heart racing, the memory of our vows still fresh in my mind. “Can you believe this is ours?” I ask, my voice laced with disbelief and wonder… to be honest I never even imagined owning something like this. The villa, gifted to us by her father, stands as a testament to the commitment we’ve made, a symbol of our love and the worlds we’ve united. Teyla leans against the balcony’s railing, her eyes sparkling with mischief and warmth. “I can’t believe it. It’s like a dream,” she replies, her voice soft yet filled with excitement.

*Amber* I crouch behind the vent, my heart still racing as I strain to listen for any signs of movement below. The laughter and taunts of Sonny’s men echo faintly, but they’re growing fainter, replaced by the distant hum of the city. I take a moment to collect myself, breathing deeply to calm the storm raging in my chest. It feels like an eternity since I last felt safe, but I can't linger here forever. I peek over the edge again, scanning the rooftop where they last stood, but the alley is empty now. Perhaps they’ve given up, thinking I’ve vanished into thin air. I can’t let hesitation tether me to this precarious spot. I need to get moving before they regroup and figure out where I’ve gone. I pull myself back into the shadows of the rooftop and make my way toward the fire escape, my instincts kicking in as I edge closer to the ladder. I can hear the faint rumble of traffic below, a reminder of the world that continues to turn outside this chaotic bubble. I let out a breath I didn

*Amber* I sit at the large wooden table, my fingers tapping nervously against the polished surface. Tjeck, Kattie, and Logan are with me, their faces all show different levels of determination and uncertainty. We all know why we’re here… today, we’re making decisions that could determine the fate of the underworld. I take a deep breath, trying to shake off the lingering tension from last night. Tjeck’s anger still echoes in my mind, but I need to focus. The stakes are too high for petty grudges. “So, what’s the plan?” I ask, glancing at Tjeck, who sits at the head of the table, his expression serious. “We need to call a meeting,” Tjeck replies, his voice low and steady. “Get everyone in the underworld to come together. This is bigger than all of us, and we have to make sure we’re united against the Capitol if it comes to that.” Kattie leans forward, her eyes sparkling with determination. “I agree. If we can get everyone on the same page, we might stand a chance. But we need to be

*Tjeck* I take a deep breath, the air thick with tension as I stand at the front of the gathering. Amber’s words hang in the air, and I can feel the weight of her determination. As the Alpha of the Stars, she’s thrown down the gauntlet, but I know we need to solidify our strategy moving forward. The stakes are too high to leave anything to chance. “Alright, everyone,” I say, my voice echoing in the dimly lit church. “We need to discuss our options. The Capitol is gathering strength, and if Christopher manages to stir them against us, we’ll risk facing a war on two fronts.” KC leans forward, his brow furrowing. “We need to get Thorn involved more. He is deputy mayor and a powerful Alpha in the city now, and he has connections that could sway public opinion in our favor. If anyone can rally the packs of Catrista to support us, it’s him.” Kattie nods in agreement, her fiery spirit shining through. “But will he take the risk? Thorn has been playing it safe since the last skirmish. He
