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.

Emma's POV Moon festival? As his Luna? I felt like throwing up. If there were two things I hated the most in this entire world, it would be Moon Festival and being Draven's Luna again. Moon Festival is the most important ritual for every pack done in the honour of the Moon Goddess herself. This ritual was celebrated once in three years during the night of Emrald Moon. If not done properly, the legends has it that the Moon Goddess would shower the pack with problems and turmoils.

HONOURING THE GODDESS The air was thick with anticipation as all the Eleven Alphas, leaders of the most powerful wolf territories, together with their subordinates and the council of elders gathered together in a vast clearing deep within the ancient forest. The Tharlegia Festival, a sacred event held once a year, was about to commence. It was a celebration that honored the Moon Goddess and marked the pinnacle of their creation, unity, and strength. The festival was the time the werewolves were graced with the unique presence of the goddess and could ask for her help in fertility, protection, and life. It was a festival every pack in the territory was expected to be a part of and had been ce

The next few days passed in a whirlwind of activity as Stephanie and the team of mothers threw themselves into organizing the children's activities for the Moon Festival. The main hall, which had always been used for formal pack meetings, began to transform into a child-friendly wonderland with a theme centered around werewolves, the moon, and the goddess herself.

Mom asked. I explained how I saw her on the television. "Well I mean it's not impossible" Dad said scratching at his chin. "However the only way to know for sure would be to be face to face" He added. I flopped down into the chair on the side of my moms desk. "How can I do that? I mean she's famous I'd never be able to get near her" I said feeling a little defeated. "Well you're alpha ceremony won't be until next month during the full moon" Mom started to say. "So why don't you take a vacation to Hollywood and see if the Goddess and make some magic happen?" She suggested.

My mother looked at me and I knew the wheels in her head were turning with a plan. “Yes, you do that… Maybe by doing that, you can also find where Paige's loyalty lies, and also if Nadia is double-crossing us.” Mother said and I nodded. “Two birds, one stone.” She said and I laughed. “So when would the Luna ceremony be held?” I needed to know a clear D-Day. “The elders will push the ceremony for next week, you need to be ready.” My mother informed me before she left me to finish my meeting. Before I resumed my meeting, I called Bart in.

Damian asked. “Not so simple. Maybe during the midyear break,” I said. Right then, I heard my mom say something to him. “You heard that?” he asked. “Yeah. She mentioned something about a full moon festival. What’s that?” “Sweetheart!” my mom chimed in. “There’s a holiday honoring Luna’s son—the one who gave rise to the full moon wolves. It’s called the Full Moon Festival, and the entire town shuts down for a whole week. You should come visit since your schedule will be clear.”

“So, Gregory, how are your preparations for the Red Moon ceremony?” I blinked, looking up at her like she was speaking in riddles. “What the hell are you talking about?” I asked, frowning. Her expression softened into one of amusement, like she knew something I didn’t. “Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten that the Red Moon is the day after tomorrow.” I clenched my jaw, willing my mother to stop. But of course, she kept going. “You know you can’t survive the Red Moon pool, right?” she said, her voice hard.

She added, picking up the fork and spoon as she started to eat. Ronan couldn’t get her words off his mind, the biggest? A mini date was the biggest thing she has ever had? “What do you do on your birthdays then, you don’t sit and eat with your parents or do anything?” He questioned half way into the meal. Stacey shook her head negatively, a small sad smile curling the tip of her lips up, “my father would throw a ball for the whole pack because it’s also the same day as the moon goddess, and that way the whole pack would think he’s celebrating my birthday.” She paused, looking up at him as she smiled.

I hear my mates growl in unison hearing Alpha’s Maxwell name. “Why would he insist on doing it on a full moon’s weekend?” My mom questioned. “What do you mean mom?” I asked her “A full moon’s weekend is a very important event in the witch’s calendar. It’s when they recharge themselves. It’s believed that this event restores their powers as it also reveals their next natural leader.” My mom says.
