Gone were the days of his indifference; now, he treated me with an air of respect and reverence. I couldn't help but feel conflicted, wondering if his newfound support was genuine or merely a result of my recent triumph."You think you've won, don't you?" she sneered. "But I know your true intentions. You've conspired with the Blood Moon Clan to steal my birthright!""Father, she must be cheating, her wolf is fake, all this is a conspiracy between her and Lucas!"I met her gaze, my own eyes steady and resolute.

He was trying to contain her, to protect her, but the toxins were stronger than anything he could do."Father, stay away from her, mother has lost her mind, she will attack you!""No, I can't, it's all my fault."My father tried to hug my mother, but my mother's eyes were red, her teeth were bared, and the wolf's claws scratched my father's face with blood."Father!" I yelled.The father was helpless, held back his grief and knocked his mother down with his backhand.I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists, my body quivering with a mixture of fear and determination.

We need to find the real antidote as soon as possible."After feeding his mother the medicine, the father asked, "Where can I find the antidote?"Black Moon Clan." Lucas replied with a serious expression, "You should know that the Black Moon Clan is making a medicine that can control werewolves. The reason why many of our Blood Moon Clan werewolves disappeared is because of this experiment."“Yes... I used to turn a blind eye to their experiments, and now, it's setting fire to our pack.”The werewolves had regained their sanity, the wildness that had consumed them finally abating.
