3rd Person’s POV
Outside their cabins, a bonfire crackled beneath the moonlit sky, sparks drifted upward like wandering fireflies before disappearing among the stars.
Ezra and Damon sat near it, engaged in a low conversation.
Lylah smiled softly before settling beside her mate, naturally gravitating toward his side
She leaned lightly against Ezra’s shoulder.
“Tiara told me what happened in Lunaris these past two days. About the announcement… and what you asked Whitepine to do p>
The firelight reflected in Ezra’s eyes.
“Not just Whitepine.” He didn’t deny it.
“I contacted every pack connected to your father’s sacrifices. Thane Blackridge and the others whose lives were saved because of Jax Stillward all helped spread the truth within the Packs they came from p>
Lylah blinked. “You asked them too p>
“It was their responsibility p>
There wasn’t the slightest hesitation in his answer.
“They’ve spent years claiming they wished to repay your father,” Ezra continued. “Helping restore his daughter’s reputation was the least they could do. And the truth should never be hidden, Lylah. They should be proud to speak it p>
Before she could respond, he leaned down and pressed a kiss against the crown of her head.
The simple gesture immediately soothed something inside her.
A faint smile tugged at Ezra’s lips. “Let me guess.” His thumb brushed against her hand.
“You’re thinking I went too far p>
Lylah
“A
Lylah laughed softly. “A little p>
That was putting it mildly.
She’d assumed Ezra was focused solely on identifying whoever had spread the rumors.
She had never imagined he would mobilize half of Verdanth in the process.
The Alpha’s eyes darkened. “If it concerns my Luna’s reputation, nothing is too much p>
His fingers intertwined with hers.

Sat,

Then he lifted her hand and pressed a lingering kiss against her knuckles.
The gesture was gentle.
The promise beneath it was not.
“This is only the beginning,” he murmured.
“They stained your name with lies. I’ll make certain every trace of those stains is erased p>
Until no wolf in Verdanth dared question her again.
Warmth bloomed inside Lylah’s chest.
She looked up at him and smiled.
The expression was soft enough to rival the stars scattered across the heavens.
Later that night, the camp gradually settled into silence.
The volunteers retired to their cabins.
Even the valley seemed to be quiet beneath the watchful gaze of the moon. Tiara and Damon had been given neighboring cabins near the edge of the clearing.
Unfortunately for the Beta, sleep proved impossible.
A frustrated groan escaped him as he rose from the narrow wooden bed. His hand scratched at his neck.
Then his arm.
Then his shoulder.
The movement immediately caught Tiara’s attention.
She sat upright, struggling to suppress a laugh.
“Well.” Amusement sparkled in her eyes.
“It seems your fancy noble blood doesn’t seem to suit this place very well p>
Damon shot her an irritated look.
“We’ve seen that Alpha Ezra and Luna Lylah are safe. I think it’s better if we leave p>
Tiara immediately frowned.
The suggestion caught her completely off guard.
After all, Damon had been the one insisting they come to Lunera as quickly as possible.
“You can’t just decide that!” she protested. “I still want to spend time with my best friend p>
