Chapter 38: The Reveal

Chiara whipped her head to see Lydia standing opposite her. Her arms crossed against her chest and a smirk plastered on her face. After hearing Lydia's challenge, the crowd silenced with a few murmurs that swept away with the breeze. The tension in the atmosphere became thick as the pack members kept glancing between the black wolf and her sister. Their faces were filled with both confusion and anticipation as they held their breaths. 

Their dad came forwards, his face mirroring his wife's, both shocked and bewildered by the turn of events. 

"Lydia, honey. You don't mean that.." Their mum began sobbing when she saw the conviction on her younger daughter's face. Her mum's tear-filled eyes gnawed at Chiara's heart, causing her wolf to start whining quietly before her attention snapped to their so-called sister.
