I awoke on my wedding morning, the golden wolf sigil on my wrist glowing with the Ancestral Goddess's blessing—a sacred confirmation of my bloodline. Joy turned to devastation as guards dragged me to the hall. There, Selene revealed a counterfeit mark beside a manipulated sacred stone, while Logan, my beloved of ten years, chose political duty over truth. The mate bond fractured, leaving profound heartbreak—but also clarity. They see a fallen orphan; I see a path to justice. With quiet resolve, I embrace the Goddess's promise: the Blood Moon Festival will awaken my true power. This is not an end. It is the beginning of unveiling every deception, restoring honor, and building a reign rooted in truth. The throne awaits its rightful heir.
