Chapter 153
I watched from a distance as my pack, once loyal to Mason, now prepared for war against him. The air was filled with tension and determination-the unmistakable signs of rebellion. My heart sank as I realized the magnitude of the mistake I had made-driven by my stubbornness and fear, I had pushed my son away.
Mason, my beloved son, had chosen Kora as his mate, and in doing so, he had shattered my carefully constructed plans for his future. I had hoped he would align himself with a powerful ally, someone from a prominent pack who could ensure his ascension to the Lycan Throne. But instead, he had chosen Kora-a small and insignificant pack leader.
As the current Luna of our pack, I had the authority and the influence to rally our members against Mason and his chosen mate. With the help of my Resistance, I ran Mason and Kora out, determined to maintain the traditions and power structures I held dear. But now, as I watched my pack prepare for battle, doubt gnawed at my heart.
I missed Mason. I missed his laughter, his bright smile, and his unwavering belief in doing what was right. My son had always been compassionate and fair-a trait he had undoubtedly inherited from his late father. I had also seen glimpses of that goodness in Kora, but my prejudice and fear had clouded my judgment.
Deep down, I knew I had made a mistake in hurting Mason. I had allowed my ambitions and desires to blind me to the happiness and love he had found with Kora. I had convinced myself that I knew what was best for him, and that I could make him “do the right thing”, according to my own definition.
But now,
now, as I watched the resolve in the eyes of my pack members, I couldn’t help but question my own motives. Was I genuinely fighting for what was right, or was I simply clinging to my own sense of control and power? Was I willing to sacrifice my relationship with my son to preserve a system that may no longer serve its purpose?
As Luna, I was supposed to be my pack’s leader, a guiding force. But in my pursuit of power and tradition, I had become a tyrant, causing

division and pain within our community. The weight of my actions pressed heavily on my shoulders, and I couldn’t ignore the deep ache of regret that coursed through my veins.
I knew I had to make things right but feared it might be too late. The rebellion against Mason’s ascension was gaining momentum, fueled by resentment and a desire for change. My pack saw Mason and Kora as a threat to the established order, disrupting the carefully balanced hierarchy they had grown accustomed to.
But deep down, I understood that change was inevitable. The world was evolving, and the old ways could no longer hold firm. Mason and Kora represented a new era-a chance for growth and unity. They had the potential to bridge divides to create a pack that embraced diversity and equality.
In my heart, I yearned for reconciliation. I longed to mend the bond with my son and embrace the love he had found with Kora. But I knew it would require humility and vulnerability, traits I had long suppressed in pursuing power. I had to let go of my pride and admit my mistakes.
As I stood there, watching the preparations for war, a resolve welled within me. I would not let my fear and stubbornness destroy my relationship with Mason. I would find a way to reach him, to show him the error of my ways, and to offer him my support.
Perhaps it was not too late to change the course of our pack’s destiny. Perhaps, with a new perspective and a willingness to evolve, we could forge a future that honored our traditions while embracing progress and love.
Isla, another powerful Luna who had chosen not to follow Mason,
approached me, her expression hardened with determination. She was a formidable ally, and I knew we could pose a significant threat to Mason’s leadership.
“An nalise,” Isla greeted me, her voice laced with urgency and conviction. “We have a rare opportunity to rectify the situation and restore our pack to its rightful path. Mason’s actions have disregarded our traditions and jeopardized our pack’s stability. We cannot let him go unchallenged.”
I met Isla’s gaze, recognizing the fire in her eyes mirrored my own. “You’re right, Isla,” I replied, my voice filled with newfound resolve. “We

cannot allow Mason to undermine everything we have worked so hard to preserve. But let us not forget that he is still my son. We must find a way to bring him back to our side and make him see the error of his choices.”
Isla’s expression softened momentarily, empathy flickering in her eyes. “I understand your desire to reconcile with your son, An nalise, but we must also consider the greater good of our packs. Mason’s alliance with Kora threatens our traditions and the very fabric of our society. We cannot afford to be swayed by sentimentality.”
I nodded, acknowledging the validity of her words. “You’re right. Our pack’s stability and adherence to tradition must be our priority. But perhaps we can find a way to guide Mason back without resorting to all-out war. We must make him understand the consequences of his choices and their impact on our pack.”
Isla’s features hardened once again, her resolve unyielding. “If he refuses to see reason, An nalise, we must be prepared to take decisive action. Both of our pack’s futures depend on it.”
I took a moment to gather my thoughts, considering Isla’s words. She was correct; we couldn’t afford to be naive. If Mason remained defiant, we must be prepared to confront him and protect the pack’s traditions.
“Agreed, Isla,” I replied, my voice firm. “We will exhaust all possibilities of reconciliation, but we must be ready to defend our pack if necessary. Together, we can create a plan to ensure our voices are heard, and our traditions upheld.”
A glimmer of admiration sparked in Isla’s eyes as she nodded in agreement. “I knew you would understand, An nalise. Our combined strength and influence will be a force to be reckoned with. We will not allow Mason’s actions to tear apart everything we have fought for.”
As we continued to discuss our strategy, an understanding grew between us. Isla and I were two strong Lunas, united by a shared goal-to protect our pack and its traditions. Despite the initial conflict between our packs, we found common ground in the face of Mason’s defiance.
We exchanged ideas, each bringing forth our expertise and experiences. It became clear that our collaboration held immense potential to challenge Mason’s leadership. With Isla’s strategic thinking and my knowledge of our pack’s inner workings, we could mount a formidable
Chapter 133 opposition.
But deep within me, a part of me still longed for reconciliation with my son. I couldn’t shake off the pain of our fractured relationship and the hope that one day, Mason would see the value in our traditions and find a way to merge his newfound love with our pack’s legacy.
In the depths of my heart, I made a silent vow. I would strive to protect our traditions, fight for our pack’s stability, and, if possible, bridge the gap between my son and me. The path ahead would be fraught with
challenges, but I was determined to make amends and guide our pack back to its proper course.
As Isla and I continued to plan our strategy, the weight of responsibility settled upon my shoulders. The future of our pack depended on our actions, and it was up to us to ensure that our traditions and values endured.
