I didn’t linger. Without making a sound, I left the library, slid into the car, and dialed Cody. “Have Fiona, Eclipse Pack’s chief jewelry designer, wait for me in the council chamber tomorrow at ten in the morning.”
“Yes, Mr. Ortega. Ms. Sawyer just finished a gem setting commission for the royal family and happens to be in the pack right now.” Cody’s voice came through the receiver-steady and reliable as always.
The next morning at 10 a.m., Fiona Sawyer arrived on time in the council chamber.
A wolf-head pattern was embroidered in dark thread on her cuff, and an energy stabilizer stone hung at her neck-an identification mark for a certified high-level jewelry designer. “Mr. Ortega, you asked for me?”
I pushed a high-definition image of the blood jade in front of her. “I want you to design a set of jewelry using this blood gemstone. The core requirement is-stabilizing the wolf spirit.”
Fiona’s pupils tightened slightly. She picked up the image and studied it carefully. “This is a top-grade blood gemstone. The life-energy fluctuations inside are extremely strong-truly an ideal material for stabilizing the soul body. Are you planning to use it for … a pack member with an unstable soul?”
“Someone important.” I avoided identifying them. “Keep the design simple. It needs to be worn close to the body, and the energy-guiding method has to be as gentle as possible-no stimulation to the soul.”
Fiona immediately pulled out a sketchbook, her pencil flying. “I suggest a necklace with matching stud earrings. The necklace should use the largest piece as the main stone, carved into the outline of a wolf fang-wolf fangs are a protective symbol of our kind and can strengthen energy guidance. The earrings can use the smaller fragments as accents to form a closed energy loop.”
I looked at the draft and nodded. “Do it that way Finish the piece in one week. Use the pack’s secret energy-engraving method for every step-no standard techniques that might damage the blood gemstone’s vitality.”
“Rest assured.” Fiona put away the sketch, her gage solemn. “This will be the work I pour most heart into in years…”

I caught Jennifer steadily. Looking at her skin tanned into a healthy wheat tone, I teased with a smile, “So, how’s training going for Silvermoon Pack’s ‘soon-to-be Alpha’?”
Jennifer lifted her chin, pride shining in her eyes.
“I just finished three months of training at the Howlstead Foreign Affairs Department. Even the elders in my pack said I’m way steadier than before. Now, Silvermoon Pack’s members all recognize me as the next Alpha. The second I got back, I came straight here to share the good news.”
We’d just reached our seats when a teasing voice cut in. “My future Alpha-running this fast. Afraid I won’t catch up?”
Marcus leaned against the doorframe, his short black hair slightly messy from the wind. Behind him was a little girl with twin ponytails his sister, Chloe.
Jennifer turned and glared. “Who asked you to catch up? I’m here to see my friend. Stop sticking your nose in.”
“Chasing your girlfriend is only natural.” Marcus strode over, smoothly brushing a fallen leaf off Jennifer’s shoulder. “I asked around. I knew you’d be here today.”
“I’m not your girl!” Jennifer puffed up and slapped his hand away, but she wasn’t truly angry.
Chloe walked over with her arms crossed. She glanced at me first, playfully rolled her eyes, then tugged on Jennifer’s sleeve. “Jennifer, don’t mind my brother. He’s been chasing you so hard he even skipped the pack’s training.”
I couldn’t help laughing-this little brat was still just as proud and prickly as last time, but the hostility from before was gone.
Jennifer took Chloe’s hand and explained to me helplessly, “She misunderstood you last time.”
