Beyond the Broken Mate Bond
"Luna Seraphina, are you certain you wish to proceed with the breaking of the mate bond? Once we begin the ritual, the bond between you and Alpha Kaden will be gone forever. Your power, your standing, and everything you hold within the pack will no longer exist."
The aged priest of the pack held Seraphina’s hand, her weathered eyes reflecting worry.
Seraphina nodded, her voice unwavering with determination. "I’m sure."
The priest persuaded Seraphina, "The ritual will bring you unimaginable pain, and Alpha Kaden will suffer greatly too. Please, could you reconsider it?"
Seraphina broke the skin of her finger with a silver pen and pressed her blood print on the ancient werewolf script to seal the deal. "Let’s begin."
"Very well. After the ritual, you will forsake the name, Seraphina Mor, and in return, the Moon Goddess will grant you a new life. You will go by Kathryn Flint, is that correct?"
"Yes."
Kathryn would leave and begin a new chapter in a forest. It was a path she had set out for herself.
She was going to leave and break free from the pack that had been nothing but lies.
After the ritual, the priest handed her a new human ID and passport.
"Can I leave the territory now?"
"Yes, you may. The confirmation slip holds the Moon Goddess’s blessing, which has the power to mask your scent from the Alpha seeking to track you, but it can only last for a week."
Seraphina prepared her departure with haste. She would bring nothing else with her, neither her Luna staff nor her registered name on the pack’s records.
Seraphina was leaving with her new passport in a week anyway. The Luna title could remain with the pack for good, for she no longer needed it.
