Deep within the forbidden royal sanctuary lay the Whispering Pool, a mystical pond hidden in the thickest part of the forest. Old pack legends claimed its silver waters were touched by the Moon Goddess herself, capable of purifying curses and unlocking dormant gifts. Tonight, I was drawn here by an overwhelming, magnetic pull in my chest, an invisible thread tugging at my very soul, leading me deeper through the thick fog.With every step I took away from the Silver Moon Pack, the lingering sting of Brandon’s pathetic insult faded. I was no longer the weak, desperate girl trying to fit into a tiny mold designed by an insecure Alpha. But beneath the cool night air, my new blood burned like liquid fire. My throat felt scraped raw, dry as ash, burning for a single drop of something warm and fresh.The air grew

The cool morning mist hovered over the glowing waters of the Whispering Pool as the first rays of golden sunlight filtered through the dense forest canopy.I lay completely breathless against Salvatore’s massive, heavily muscled chest.

My dress was completely ruined, shredded beyond repair from the feral night in the sanctuary pool. B
