As the dust settled, I found myself reeling in grief and turmoil. Determined to reclaim my birthright, I emerged from the shadows, my heart aflame with defiance. Yet, the path to becoming Luna, the supreme ruler of The Sentinels, was fraught with treacherous obstacles.

I was no longer just a daughter, a cousin, or a friend. I was the future Luna, the protector of the Sentinel Valley, and I would carry the mantle with pride.

My strength resonated through the Sentinels. I rallied the villagers, inspiring them with my courage and determination. Together, we tackled the daunting task of rebuilding, our hands calloused, our hearts filled with a newfound purpose.

Melike and Fenrir had helped me to regain control of my people and we chased our evil auntie away.

The castle, once a symbol of loss, slowly transformed. The crumbling walls were mended, the windows replaced, and the grand hall echoed once again with the sounds of life. The villagers, inspired by me the new Luna, rekindled their spirit, working tirelessly to restore their community.

I, the Luna, had found my purpose. My grief, though never forgotten, was now a driving force, propelling me forward. I was the protector of the Sentinel Valley, a beacon of hope for my people, and a testament to the enduring power of resilience. I was the Luna, and my story was just beginning, as I promised myself to help Melike to claim back the Iron Throne as she helped me to claim back my castle and became the Luna. Melike is the rightful ruler of the seven kingdoms.

*Melike Pov*

'Ava, my dearest,' I whispered, my voice laced with emotion, 'I am overwhelmed with joy for you on this momentous occasion.'

Ava turned to me, her radiant smile illuminating her face. 'Thank you, Melike. I am eternally grateful for your support and unwavering belief in me.'

I clasped Ava's hands tightly. 'I have never doubted your abilities. You possess the wisdom, strength, and compassion of the wolf that will guide your kingdom into an era of prosperity and peace.'

A moment of silence fell over the room as Ava and I shared a profound bond. We knew that Ava's ascension to the throne not only marked a turning point for our lives but for the entire realm.

'Together,' I declared resolutely, 'we shall confront the treacherous machinations of our malevolent aunt, Queen Delilah.'

Ava nodded determinedly. 'Her reign of tyranny will end. We will rally our forces and bring justice to the Seven Kingdoms.'

As the coronation ceremony drew to a close, I felt a surge of confidence wash over me. With Ava as the Luna, I knew that we could overcome any obstacle that stood in our path. The Sentinels Valley had regain the symbolic royal state of the wolf.

Later that night I was summoned by one of Ava servant to her private chamber.

As I entered, her eyes sparkled with a mixture of awe and trepidation. Ava's gaze met mine, radiating an aura of trust and affection.

'My dearest Melike,' Ava began, her voice soft yet commanding, 'there is something I must entrust to you. A gift of great significance and power.'

I brows furrowed in curiosity. 'A gift, Luna? What could it be?'
