Chapter 300
~Zaria’s POV~
The dining room was set perfectly, the long mahogany table adorned with silver candlesticks and fresh floral arrangements. Dinner was almost ready, and I looked forward to another evening with Zara.
The past few days with her had been everything I’d hoped for—filled with laughter, connection, and memories.
Tonight would be no different. I had plans to bring up tomorrow’s foundation ceremony again, hoping to convince her to stay longer.
"She’ll come around," I muttered to myself, sipping from the glass of wine before me.
Clarisse approached from the side calmly as she leaned down to whisper something in my ear. "Shall I fetch Lady Zara, Luna Zaria?"
"Yes, please," I replied with a warm smile. "Tell her dinner is ready."
Clarisse curtsied and left the room. I sat back, letting the faint sounds of the bustling kitchen fill the silence as I thought about tomorrow’s ceremony. Elder Faris had been thrilled at the idea of Zara’s involvement, and her presence would undoubtedly cement her role in the pack’s legacy.
Minutes passed, and I frowned. Clarisse hadn’t returned yet.
