"The old magic recognizes Graystone blood. It welcomes you home, young one."
Luna Mara approached with a small bowl of sacred oil infused with herbs and moonstone dust. "May I?" she asked Matthias gently.
When he nodded, she dipped her fingers in the oil and traced ancient symbols on his forehead, wrists, and over his heart. "For clarity of mind, strength of body, and purity of spirit," she explained. "To help your wolf find his way to you."
The scent of the oil filled the clearing, pine and sage and something older, wilder, that made my own wolf stir beneath my skin in recognition. Around us, pack members were taking their positions, forming the outer ring of the ceremonial circle.
