The Lichen Blood Pack: a name that resonated with the whispers of a magnificent and grand ancient history. A legacy that spoke of a great kingdom, where werewolves, shape-shifters, and humans coexisted in perfect harmony. At the heart of this kingdom lay the mighty Romano dynasty, renowned for their exceptional skills, unyielding strength, and unwavering bravery in battle.

For centuries, the Romanos had forged unbreakable bonds with neighboring packs and shape-shifters, cementing their reputation as a formidable and respected force. Their roots, deeply entrenched in ancient Italy, told the tale of a rich heritage that had been carefully preserved and passed down through generations.

However, the aftermath of the last grand battle had brought about a pivotal change. The previous king, driven by the urgent need to safeguard his people, had made the perilous decision to relocate the pack to the distant shores of Canada. It was a bold move, undertaken solely for the survival and well-being of their kind.

In the present day, the Lichen Blood Pack stood as a shining testament to the Romanos' indelible legacy, their name forever etched in the annals of history as the greatest and most powerful werewolf pack the world had ever known. Nestled in the heart of Canada, in the picturesque city of Ottawa, the pack existed in a delicate balance between the mundane world and the shadows, hidden from prying eyes.

Only a select few, deemed worthy and superior, were privileged to know of the pack's existence, and even fewer had been fortunate enough to encounter them. Ottawa, with its unique blend of natural beauty, modern architecture, and ancient structures, provided the perfect backdrop for the pack's secretive existence.

The city's climate was a study in contrasts, with long, warm summers giving way to freezing, snowy winters that stretched from early October to late April. The surrounding landscape, a vast expanse of wilderness that stretched from the southern shores of Lake Superior to the Wisconsin border, was a nature lover's paradise. Teeming with wildlife, the area boasted breathtaking vistas of rolling hills dotted with lakes, rivers, and waterfalls, all set against a kaleidoscope of spectacular fall colors. Something that makes the kingdom more beautiful.

To the uninitiated, the Romanos appeared to be a family of billionaire immigrants who had built a business empire through their vast shipment company. The current chief director and CEO, Vinceno Romano, was a man of immense influence and power, with far-reaching connections that spanned the globe. His reputation was formidable, and few dared to cross him, lest they suffer the consequences of his wrath.

Vinceno Romano was a master strategist, a chess player who always thought several moves ahead. His power and influence were palpable, yet he remained an enigma, a mysterious figure who shunned the spotlight. Despite being one of the most powerful and influential people in the country, he remained conspicuously absent from social media, magazines, and mainstream media.

The Romanos were, in essence, a royal family, shrouded in mystery and intrigue. Their privacy was fiercely guarded, and they had managed to keep their secrets hidden from prying eyes. The curiosity of the general public was piqued, but the Romanos remained an enigma, a family of immense power and wealth, yet hidden from the world.

Within the opulent castle walls of the Romanos, a flurry of activity unfolded as the maids scurried about, meticulously preparing for the grand welcome of the Prince. Every corner was scrubbed, every surface polished, and every artifact, no matter how ancient, was buffed to a brilliant sheen. The air was alive with anticipation as the staff worked tirelessly to ensure that every detail was perfect for the arrival of the prince and his mate.
