The Moon Luna

Chapter 7: The Full Moon

As they entered Alex's office, Lily couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation. What would he say? Would he be able to help her uncover the secrets of her past?

Alex looked up from the papers on his desk, his eyes locking onto Lily's. "Ah, Dr. Rodriguez, Lily," he said, his voice warm and welcoming. "What can I do for you?"

Dr. Rodriguez smiled, taking a seat in one of the chairs in front of Alex's desk. "I think it's time we talked about Lily's... unusual healing abilities," she said, glancing at Lily.

Alex's eyes narrowed, his expression thoughtful. "Yes, I've been meaning to talk to you about that," he said. "As you know, the full moon is tomorrow night. It's a time of great power and connection for our pack, a time when our bond with the moon goddess is at its strongest."

Lily felt a shiver run down her spine as Alex spoke. There was something about the full moon that seemed to resonate with her, something that felt... familiar.

And then, suddenly, she was hit with a flash of sound.

A mystical, ethereal voice whispered in her ear, "You are more special than you know, little one." The voice was like nothing Lily had ever heard before - it was as if the stars themselves were singing to her. And yet, beneath the mystical tone, Lily detected a hint of joy, a sense of delight that was infectious.

Lily's heart skipped a beat as the voice faded away, leaving her feeling breathless and disoriented.

Alex's eyes locked onto hers, his expression concerned. "Lily, are you okay?" he asked, his voice soft.

Lily nodded, trying to shake off the feeling of wonder that had settled over her. "Yeah, I'm fine," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.

Dr. Rodriguez leaned forward, her eyes shining with interest. "What's wrong, Lily?" she asked, her voice gentle.

Lily hesitated, unsure of how to explain the strange, mystical voice she had just heard. She didn't want to tell them about it, not yet. She wasn't even sure what it meant.

"I'm just a little overwhelmed, that's all," she said, trying to brush it off.

Alex's eyes narrowed, his expression skeptical. But he didn't push the issue. "We'll talk more about this later," he said. "But for now, let's just focus on getting you prepared for the full moon tomorrow night."

Lily nodded, feeling a sense of trepidation. What would happen tomorrow night, under the light of the full moon? And what did Alex mean by "prepared"?
