The pack territory finally became quiet after the intense battle.
Most of the wolves returned to their homes, but the tension remained in the air.
Ariana sat quietly in her room at the mansion.
Her mind was full of questions.
Moon Bloodline.
Moon Heir.
Alpha battle.
None of it felt real.
She sighed and lay down on the bed.
Soon, exhaustion pulled her into sleep.
But the moment she closed her eyes…
Something strange happened.
Ariana suddenly found herself standing in a wide open field.
The sky above her was dark, but the moon was glowing brighter than ever.
Silver light covered the entire place.
"Where am I?" Ariana whispered.
A soft voice echoed around her.
"You are where destiny begins."
Ariana turned around quickly.
A woman stood behind her.
She wore a flowing silver dress, and her eyes glowed like the moon itself.
Ariana felt an overwhelming presence.
"Who are you?" she asked.
The woman smiled gently.
"I am the one who guides the wolves."
"The one they call the Moon Goddess."
Ariana's eyes widened.
"You're… real?"
The Moon Goddess stepped closer.
"Yes, child."
She gently touched Ariana's forehead.
"You carry my blessing."
Ariana felt a wave of energy pass through her body.
"I don't understand," she said softly.
"Why me?"
The Moon Goddess looked toward the moon in the sky.
"Long ago, the balance between wolves and humans began to break."
"Dark forces are rising again."
Ariana felt nervous.
"What does that have to do with me?"
The goddess looked directly into her eyes.
"You are the Moon Heir."
"The one who will decide the future of the werewolf world."
Ariana's heart started pounding.
"That's impossible."
The Moon Goddess smiled softly.
"Your power will grow with time."
"But you will not walk this path alone."
She paused for a moment.
"Two Alpha wolves are tied to your destiny."
Jayden.
Kayden.
The names immediately appeared in Ariana's mind.
Ariana frowned.
"You mean… them?"
The Moon Goddess nodded.
"Both of them will play a role in your fate."
"But only one will stand beside you at the end."
The moonlight suddenly became brighter.
The vision began fading.
"Wait!" Ariana called.
"What am I supposed to do?"
The goddess' voice echoed one last time.
"When the Blood Moon rises, your true power will awaken."
"And the real war will begin."
Suddenly Ariana woke up.
She sat up in bed, breathing heavily.
Moonlight shone through the window.
"Was that… a dream?"
But deep down…
She knew it was real.
And the prophecy had already begun.
