Chapter 7
Deep beneath Mayari Manor, a hidden chamber held the pack's oldest secrets. Elder Tomas sat near a stone table illuminated by candlelight. Ancient scrolls covered the surface. His wrinkled hands carefully unrolled one of them.
The prophecy.
He had guarded it for decades.
But today something had disturbed his instinct.
A human entering the pack.
A human the Alpha's wolf seemed to notice.
It couldn't be a coincidence.
His finger traced the old words.
"When betrayal darkens the Alpha's heart…"
The elder whispered softly. " That's already happened." He continued reading.
"The moon will send a human woman whose presence awakens the wolf,
and bring healing to the blackened heart and warmth the whole pack. "
Elder Tomas leaned back slowly.
Hallia Delan.
He had seen the way Orion's gaze followed her earlier.
The wolf was already reacting.
The prophecy might truly be unfolding.
But prophecies were never simple.
Some brought salvation.
Others brought destruction.
The elder closed the scroll.
"We must watch her carefully." Because if the prophecy was real___
Hallia Delan might one day become the first Human Luna Mayari Pack had
ever seen or the reason the pack fell.
