My Sister Stole My Mate And I Let Her (Seraphina) novel Chapter 520

Chapter 520: Chapter 520 THROUGH THE MOONLIT FOREST

SERAPHINA’S POV

The hours slipped by almost without my noticing.

One conversation melted effortlessly into another, dances became stories around the fire, and stories gave way to shared laughter as the stars slowly wheeled overhead.

Before I realized how late it had become, the full moon had climbed to the very center of the sky.

Then, somewhere beyond the bonfires, a deep horn echoed across the pack grounds.

Its solemn note rolled through the forest, and almost instantly, the celebration quieted. Conversations faded, dancers drifted apart, and every wolf turned toward the northern tree line.

Excitement swept through the clearing, quiet but contagious, spreading from wolf to wolf until it seemed to pulse through the air.

The pack run.

Kieran’s gaze met mine, a smile tugging at his lips as he offered me his hand.

“Shall we?”

My pulse quickened as I took his hand.

I had dreamed about this moment more times than I could count, and I thought I was going to burst from the intensity of the anticipation thrumming through me.

The crowd parted naturally as we passed, and hundreds of Nightfang werewolves fell into formation behind us with the effortless precision of a tradition they’d repeated their entire lives.

Families stood shoulder to shoulder with warriors, elders beside newly awakened wolves, while excited pups bounced impatiently between their parents’ legs.

For the first time in my life, I wasn’t taking my place somewhere in the back.

I stood beside my mate at the head of the pack.

The breeze carried the scent of pine and earth as the moon bathed the forest in silver light.

Alina stirred within me, her anticipation brushing warmly against my own.

‘Ready?’ Kieran’s voice rumbled affectionately through our bond.

I glanced sideways at Kieran one last time before closing my eyes.

‘Ready.’

The Shift flowed through me as naturally as drawing breath. Silver unfurled across my skin, warm and exhilarating as muscle and bone reshaped until my paws touched the earth and every sense burst gloriously awake.

I looked down at myself, feeling the surge of wonder that filled me with every Shift, even now.

Ashar stood beside me, magnificent in his golden coat, his eyes fixed on mine with unmistakable adoration.

And then his deep voice resonated clearly in my mind.

‘Hello, Little Silver.’

Alina lowered her head and brushed her muzzle gently against his. ‘Hi.’

Daniel came racing toward us, weaving effortlessly through the gathered wolves before skidding to a stop in front of Ashar and Alina.

Though he couldn’t shift yet, there wasn’t a trace of disappointment on his face. If anything, his eyes shone even brighter as he looked up at us.

“Hi,” he breathed.

His fingers disappeared into the thick silver fur along my neck before moving to stroke Ashar’s sleek golden coat with equal reverence.

A warm rumble vibrated deep in my chest as Alina lowered her head, nudging gently against his shoulder.

Beside me, Ashar did the same, sandwiching our son between us until Daniel burst into helpless laughter.

"Okay, okay," he laughed, trying—and failing—to push away two very affectionate wolves. "I’m getting squished."

Alina licked his cheek in response.

"Mom!"

Ashar’s amused rumble echoed through our bond.

Daniel wiped dramatically at his face before looking from one of us to the other, his smile softening.
