she asked and frowned. “I… don’t think so?” Jun answered, feeling uncertain. “If the moon goddess wanted to send us a message, she would definitely send a messenger… a person… right?” he said. “Oh. You are right.” Laila muttered. “Then, this eagle…” Mabu spoke as he looked at the eagle that landed on their table. Suddenly, he thought of something. His eyes brightened. “Could it be…?!” he exclaimed. His face flushed with excitement.

Right there. That was where the bond had formed. For one blinding moment, when Olivia's wolf had awakened and the Moon Goddess had tied our souls together, I had felt it. A pull so strong it had nearly brought me to my knees. A connection that went deeper than blood, deeper than duty, deeper than anything I had ever known. And then I had severed it. I had looked into her eyes and said the words that would destroy her. "The Moon Goddess must have made a mistake." I squeezed my eyes shut.

It’s only a moment but it stands out from all the other flashing scenes and images spinning in my mind’s eye. Blinking my eyes open I note the moon has passed its apex and the ritual is almost over.

"Torin himself witnessed her in a neutral safehouse, wrapped in the arms of the Pale Blade! She refuses to launch a counter-assault on the eastern border because she is enslaved to the parasite's scent! I call for a formal vote of no confidence! Strip the Moonvael name from her skull!"

Alpha Maximus said to the crowd and took his stand in front of Marcus as the Elder Joseph stood in between the two. “My fellow Blue Moon members. Tonight we are truly blessed as the Goddess herself is shining above us.

The village buzzes with life. Everywhere I turn, someone is preparing for tonight’s Lunar Eclipse Festival. It’s the most important celebration for Moonlair—a tribute to the Moon Goddess for her guidance and protection. Children race through the village square, their laughter ringing out like bells. The air smells of roasted meats, sweet honeyed bread, and the faint tang of herbs being prepared for the festival offerings.

the abbot coaxes I blink slowly, and upon closer inspection, I notice the rock is a slivery blue not white as I initially thought When my attention returns to the abbot, I realize he’s still talking, “-And a child is born, when the moon is full and blue, the goddess will descend and bless.” When the power of the moon is at its peak.
