Return of The Blood Wolf: Ashes Rise

Chapter 31 - Avalor

From my concealed vantage point in the shadows of the ancient trees, I watched the scene unfold with a mix of curiosity and suspicion. Draegon, that enigmatic newcomer who had disrupted the balance of our pack, was standing beside Phoenix's blood wolf. The very fact that the blood wolf hadn't lunged at him was a perplexing turn of events.

I knew of the ancient rituals and bonds between blood wolves and their anchors, but it was a rare occurrence, and to witness it was something else entirely. If that blood wolf had indeed chosen Draegon as her anchor, it meant that he had gained her trust in a way that left me uneasy.

Phoenix's blood wolf was a force to be reckoned with, and the implications of this newfound connection were not to be underestimated. It also raised questions about Draegon's intentions and the role he was playing within our pack.

I remained hidden in the shadows, my keen senses alert to any sign of aggression or danger. The blood wolf, now accepting Draegon as her anchor, stood beside him in a silent display of loyalty. It was a bond that could not be broken lightly, and I knew that it carried a weight of responsibility and protection.

As I continued to observe, my suspicion deepened. What did this newfound connection mean for our pack? And what was Draegon's true purpose in all of this? There were secrets lurking beneath the surface, and I was determined to uncover them, even if it meant confronting the blood wolf herself.

For now, I would bide my time, watching and waiting for the right moment to make my move. The balance of power within our pack was shifting, and I couldn't afford to be caught off guard.
