Chapter 423 - If your son ever falls for her...
Flashback Continues
Luna Kylie parted her lips, ready to fire off another question that was burning on her tongue. Before she could get a single word out, Noelle reached over and lightly touched her arm, her face unusually serious and tense.
"There’s something I need to tell you."
Kylie glanced over at Humphrey, who gave her a small, encouraging nod. "I’ll be right back."
The two women quietly slipped outside the shaman’s hut. The cool evening breeze brushed against their faces as they walked a short distance away, making sure they were far enough that no one inside could possibly overhear them.
Noelle looked around one last time, double-checking they were alone, before lowering her voice to almost a whisper.
"Luna..." She hesitated for just a heartbeat. "I think I’m carrying the gifted wolf."
Kylie’s eyes flew wide open in pure shock. "What?"
Noelle nodded with total confidence, her expression steady and sure. "I have the crescent moon mark too." She smiled faintly, almost shyly. "It’s on my lower back." Her hand instinctively moved to rest near the back of her waist. "The mark has been passed down through the women in my family for generations."
She made sure to mention the exact location on her lower back because she knew Kylie well enough to understand the Luna would never ask to see something so private.
Kylie slowly let out the breath she’d been holding, massive relief washing across her face like a wave. "Thank the Moon Goddess." A genuine smile finally broke through. "I was terrified we’d never find the gifted she-wolf."
Her shoulders visibly relaxed as the heavy weight started lifting from her heart. "But it looks like the Moon Goddess has already arranged everything perfectly."
She laughed softly, the sound full of heartfelt joy and gratitude. Humphrey’s voice suddenly echoed through her mind link, urgent and clear. ’Kylie. Come back inside. The shaman isn’t finished.’
She immediately turned to Noelle. "We have to go back. There’s more."
The two women hurried back into the hut. The moment they stepped inside, the old shaman slowly lifted her head.
Her cloudy eyes rested on them for a moment, almost like she had known exactly where they had gone and what they had talked about, before she continued speaking.
"But be warned." Her voice grew much heavier and more intense. "There is another wolf. The Fenrir Wolf."
The room instantly grew deathly silent. Everyone straightened up, tension crackling through the air.
"She will be born around the same time as the gifted white wolf." The old woman’s gaze settled heavily on Humphrey. "If your son ever falls for her..." She slowly shook her head, her expression full of dread. "No one will be able to save him."
Humphrey’s face darkened with worry. "What exactly is the Fenrir Wolf?"
Her eyes were closed, and a gentle smile remained on her face. It looked as though she had simply fallen asleep. But her long journey had already ended. The Moon Goddess had called her home.
The entire pack mourned her passing with heavy hearts. A burial worthy of the oldest and wisest shaman was immediately arranged. Every single member of the Centenary Pack attended to honor the incredible woman who had protected and guided them for so many years.
End of Flashback.
The memories slowly faded away, pulling everyone back to the present.
Back on the yacht, everyone remained unusually quiet, the weight of the story still hanging over them. No one spoke for several long moments as they processed everything.
Voren and Seraphine were finally starting to put the pieces together. Everything that went down between Seraphine and Ravyn wasn’t some random mistake. Ravyn was the one who fucked up, and now he’d have to bear the consequences.
Voren got it now, why the moon goddess let him and Seraphine go through all that pain. He had stepped into territory that wasn’t his. Seraphine had belonged to Ravyn for a long time, but Voren was sure the moon goddess was done with Ravyn too. If not, why would she make him Esperanza’s new daddy?
He wasn’t even mad about the revelation. The description was spot on. He had a real talent for spotting the good in people, and when he did, he went after what he wanted. Just like he’d claimed the only woman he’d ever loved, ever since they were kids.
He still had Ravyn to thank for it, because if it wasn’t for him, Voren never would’ve met Seraphine at all.
Kylie looked at Madison with eyes full of deep confusion. "So..." She slowly exhaled. "How do you have the same crescent moon mark?"
