Opening the door slowly to give a heartwarming surprise, was Luna Fiona, Clara's paternal grandmother, who had stayed away from the family after the death of her favourite son (Clara's father).
With tears rolling down Luna Fiona's eyes in a joyful manner, she walked slowly, already holding Clara's left arm and putting her fingers through her grandchild's hair way, giving a perfect 60-second long kiss to the forehead.
Clara, looking all surprised by the weird old but still beautiful skin and features, pushed herself back to exchange a brief eye contact with her uncle. Alpha Jerry, already looking overwhelmed by the surprise visit of his mum that cold evening.
Luna Fiona looked at Clara with a joyous smile on her face. "I am your father's mum" said Fiona, using her hand to turn Clara's face away from Jerry and facing her instead.
Luna Fiona took a long breath as she looked at Clara and said "I am deeply sorry for never showing up till now, but I promise to be your shield till my last breath."
Still in the abandoned building, Lucian was already smiling and getting satisfied with the thought of having his own Luna by his side in a matter of days.
"My Alpha!" One of the wolves of Lucian's pack called out to him. "You asked to see me", "Oh! yes I did, I want all the furniture and interior decor in my house changed before the next full moon", he commanded, as he smiled to himself.
