Aria made a disapproving face stating: “Prosperity? Maybe for some, but these human wolf hybrids? They’re will nothing but a disgrace. I don’t care if people see them as symbols of peace–they’ll never be withing more than mongrels to me.”
I stood up and replied neither humbly or arrogantly, Tve never been ashamed of my rolein. Whether l’in a werewolf human hybrid or a pure blooded werewolf, I was born out of my parents love. I’m not inferior everyone present. We are equal. You should be ashamed of your arrogant discrimination”
The room fell silem, then erupted into applause once Inope.
The crowd’s support buoyed me, filled me with a strength I hadn’t known 1 possessed.
Aria’s face flushed with anger, her eyes darting in Leo for support.
But to her dismay, was he who spoke next, his voice firm, cutting through the tension.
“Aria,” he said, his tone laced with disappointment, “that’s enough. You’ve crossed the line.”
His defense surprised me, but it seemed to enrage Aria even further.
She glared at him, her eyes flashing with fury, but before she could speak, Orlando stepped forward.
“Let’s settle this once and for all,” he said, his voice cold, wuthoritative “Aria has been pestering me to sell a tune, claiming that as the future Luns of Silvermoon and Oceanheart she could offer me protection. But I don’t sell my music to those who lack the talent and character to appreciate it.”
The room buzzed with whispers, the crowd hanging on every word
Leo turned to Aria, his expression one of shock and dismay
“Is this true?” he asked, his voice strained
Aria’s composure crumbled.
“No, it’s not “she began, but her voice faltered, her denial weak and uncomincing
The challenge bang in the air, the room falling into an expectant bush.
Aria’s face went pale, her eyes darting around the room, searching for an escape.
But there was TIOON,
The crowd watched, waiting, their judgment palpable.
She hesitated
The weight of the moment pressed down on her, and I could see the fear in her eyes
The room erupted into applause once more, the crowd on its feet, their cheers echoing through the hall.
I stood there, my heart pounding, a mixture of triumph and relief washing over me.
This was my victory–not just over Arsa, but over phy past, over the doubts and fears that bad hated me for so long.
Orlando placed a hand on my shoulder, his touch reassuring, grounding me in the moment.
“it’s the time to end this show once and for all he said quietly, has voice filled with pride.
I looked out at the crowd at the faces of those who had once doubted me, who had dismissed me as nothing more than a mistake.
And I knew in that moment, that I had finally found my place.
This was the moment had been waiting for,

And during one training session, Leo was seriously injured and fell list a conia. It was Art’s plano imule that woke him up. Because of t have always maintained close contact.
I stepped forward, my Voles clear and strong
The piano is right here, Aria. If you have the talent, prove it. Play a time and show everyone that you deserve the masir you covet
The tension in the grand ball was palpable as Aria’s eyes darted nervously around the room.
Het face, usually so composed, was now a mask of panir. She cliched her hand, her wire trembling as she teled in excuse herself.
“1-1 hurt my hand earlier. I can’t possibly play right now,” the stammered, her words lacking the conviction the so desperately needed.
The crowd retained unconvinced
Whispers of doubt filled the air, their collective suspicion calling through Aria’s weak explanation.
She stood there, under the harsh scrutiny of the onlookers, with no choice but to fall silent, her earlier bravado reduced to nothing more than a pitifka
facade.
Leo was staring at her from a distance.
“if you can do it well, come on play it. Someone from the crowd shouted.
Aria looked puzzled and her eyes were unable to meet the public.
“I can do it better than her, it’s just I am not well. She insisted to be stubbornly. The crowd knew it now, so did Leo. I was at peace…”
Aria could no longer continue with her lies. She turned around and ran out of the venue with a flushed face.
After she left, the banquet continued.
Orlando, standing by my side, gently guided me away from the plans, leading me toward the gathering of celebrities and influential figures mingling around the hall.
The party had officially begun, and I was to be introduced as his daughter, a revelation that had already sent shockwaves through the room.
As the evening progressed, I found myself swirling through a sea of faces, each one more distinguished than the last
Orlando introduced me to everyone–from world–renowned musicians to influential politicians
Glass after glass of wine was thrust into my hand, the liquid slipping down my throat as I struggled to keep up with the endless small talk and pleasantries.
The night wore on, the effects of the alcohol beginning to cloud my mind.
I needed a break, a moment to breathe.
Finding a secluded spot on the vast terrace, I sat down, the cool night air brushing against my flushed skin
The gentle rustle of leaves provided a soothing backdrop to the chaotic evening, and I closed my eyes, letting the wind clear my thoughts.
Footsteps approached, and I opened my eyes to see Leo walking toward me.
His expression was unreadable, his eyes flickering with an emotion I couldn’t quite place.
He sat beside me, the silence between us heavy with unspoken words.
