"Where are your husband and his officials?" Magnus asked, his voice cutting through the chatter Selene, who had been conversing with a group of guests, turned toward her brother. A bright smile t up her face as she rushed forward to embrace him.
"Brother!" she exclaimed, the formality she had been practicing as Luna momentarily forgotten.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMagnus arched a brow and smirked. "Alpha Magnus," he corrected playfully.
Selene cleared her throat, stepping back from the hug. "Fine, fine. Alpha Magnus," she said, rolling her eyes but smiling nonetheless, Magnus reached out and gently placed a hand on top of her head. "I can hardly believe how much you've changed in just two months." "Changed?" she asked, tilting her head slightly, unsure of what he meant.
"In the best way," he clarified, his smile warm. "You're about to becthe Luna of a great pack, but to me, you'll always be my little sister. Still, I can see it in your eyes-you're happy, Alpha Kane has taken good care of you, hasn't he?" Selene nodded, her voice soft but sure. "He has, brother. I'm happier than I've ever been. He lovesdeeply, and he's always there for me. Our past may have been dark, but we ctogether when we needed each other most." Before Magnus could reply, Selene's mother, Evelyn, interrupted, her voice teasing, "Done monopolizing your sister? It's our turn now." Selene turned to embrace her parents, Alpha Malcolm Hawthorne and Evelyn Hawthorne. Both of them looked proud, their smiles wide as they took in their daughter's transformation.
"What a powerful woman you've become," Malcolm said, his voice filled with admiration.
Just then, Kane's parents, Alpha Garrett Thorne and Diana Thorne, approached. The two families exchanged warm greetings, their happiness evident as they spoke.
Magnus, however, wasn't done with his sister. Leaning in close, he whispered, "You still haven't answered my question." Selene glanced toward the main door, her gaze flickering with expectation. "He got a call from his company and had to leave about an hour ago," she said quietly.
Magnus frowned, his sharp eyes scanning the room. "And his officials? Where are they?" Selene paused, realizing he had a point. Kane's officials, aside from Finn, rarely went to the pack's company. "Maybe he needed them for something important," she murmured, though doubt crept into her tone.
Magnus nodded and turned his attention to Leo and Luna, who were nearby. The children lit up with excitement as their uncle knelt down to talk and play with them. Their laughter echoed through the hall, momentarily easing Selene's growing unease.

Guest after guest approached her to offer congratulations or small talk, and while she responded politely, her mind was elsewhere. Minutes turned into an hour, and Kane still hadn't returned Selene was speaking with her mother when a sudden crash broke through the noise of the hall She spun around, her eyes darting to the source of the sound.
Alpha Garrett stood frozen, a shattered glass at his feet and his phone pressed to his ear. His expression was grim, his knuckles white as he gripped the device.
Selene rushed to his side, her voice urgent. "Dad, what's wrong?" Garrett's eyes,
wide and troubled, met hers as he ended the call. His voice was steady but heary with worry, "Seleneöhen began, srogues have attacked and burned down our northern village. The villagers are trying to protect themselves, but they're in danger."
Selene's fists clenched tightly at her sides, her jaw tightening as fury coursed through her. The sweetn composed expression she had worn all evening vanished, replaced by a fierce determination. Her eyes darkened to a deep, glowing blue, her power radiating off her in waves. "Don't worry," she said, her voice low and sharp. "I'll take care of the rogues myself." Turning to Garrett, she added firmly, "Call Kane and tell him I'm heading to the village now."
She was already moving to leave when Garrett's voice stopped her in her tracks. "Selene," he said, his tone steady but laced with urgency. "Kane is already there." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
