The next morning. Vera arrived at the main Soren estate under the pretense of delivering a custom gown from Emberhall Atelier. Using that opportunity, she met Evelyn and, following Nira’s instructions, carefully steered the conversation where it needed to go.
Later, when Damon went to see the head of the Soren family, Garrick Soren, to ask for help getting through his current crisis, Garrick’s attitude had completely changed.
Where he had previously shown signs of agreement, he now kept things vague, offering no clear answer.
Damon couldn’t make sense of it. Just before, Garrick had practically agreed, so why the sudden shift?
That same night, something explosive hit the entertainment world.
The gossip account ClueHollow posted on Twitter, claiming to have major dirt on a top celebrity.
The post was deliberately vague, only hinting that the celebrity had once been involved in a serious incident, where during a late night at a bar, they accidentally killed a mixed–blood werewolf. Instead of facing the consequences, they allegedly manipulated the situation, found someone else to take the fall, and quietly left their pack to let the whole thing fade away.
The only concrete clue given was that the celebrit
‘s last
name started with “S.”
That alone was enough to send the internet into chaos.
The topic exploded across social media and shot straight to the top of trending. People began digging through every well–known celebrity with an “S” surname across the pack alliance, from chart–topping singers to award–winning actors, dragging each one into the storm of speculation.
But ClueHollow remained deliberately silent, offering no additional details, only dropping occasional cryptic replies that kept the discussion alive and growing.
Early that morning, Nira scrolled through several articles, a satisfied look crossing her face before she set her phone aside and stopped paying attention.
At the Soren breakfast table, the atmosphere felt noticeably tense.
Janice, still punished from the night before, looked downcast and quiet.
Nolan, on the other hand, seemed distracted, barely present. Jenna called his name several times before he finally reacted, earning a sharp look from her.
“Nolan, what’s going on with you? I’ve called you multiple times.”
He snapped back to reality and quickly covered, “I didn’t sleep well last night. Just zoned out.”
Jenna’s expression softened immediately, concern replacing irritation. “You need to stop staying up so late going over scripts. Take better care of yourself.”
“Yeah, I know,” Nolan replied, brushing it off.
Just then, his phone buzzed. The moment he read the message, his expression changed, and he stood up abruptly. “Mom, Dad, I

need to head out.”
“Wait, at least finish your breakfast” Jenna started, but he was already gone.
Nira watched his hurried figure disappear through the doorway, the corner of her lips lifting slightly.
Right on time.
