    **The Moon Goddess 425**


    **Wanda Confronts Meredith**


    As the night unfolded its velvety cloak, the flickering torches that lined the grand hall began to dwindle, their bright mes yielding to a softer, more intimate amber light. The air was thick with the remnants ofughter and chatter, but as the musicians concluded their final, gentle melody, the atmosphere shifted. Their instruments were set aside, and the room fell into a hushed reverie, conversations dwindling to mere whispers.


    Even the Elders, who had spent the evening in a haze of wine and quiet deliberation, began to lean back in their chairs, their expressions a mix of contentment and fatigue.


    At the head of the long table, Randall Oatrun rose gracefully from his seat. Despite thete hour, he retained an air of majesty, his voice ringing clear and authoritative.


    “It has been a night well spent,” he dered, his gaze sweeping across the hall, taking in the faces of his kin. “Our people have returned to us, our faith in Stormveil’s strength has been rekindled, and our Alpha son has once again demonstrated that the Oatrun bloodline embodies resilience and unwavering loyalty.”


    A ripple of agreement coursed through the room, punctuated by light apuse and murmurs of approval. Randall allowed the sound to wash over him, waiting patiently for the enthusiasm to ebb before continuing.


    “Before we conclude this gathering, I would like to invite Alpha Draven to share a few closing words tomemorate this evening.”


    At his cue, all eyes shifted towards Draven, who rose slowly from his chair, his demeanorposed yet intense.


    “Tonight has been long,” he began, his voice steady, “but it was necessary.” He scanned the faces of those seated around the table, each one a reflection of themunity he served.


    “When I was dispatched to Duskmoor,” he continued, “it was not to incite conflict, but to preserve peace. When that peace shattered, I did not fight for glory; I fought to bring our people home. The blood we spilled and the losses we suffered were not mine alone. They belonged to Stormveil.”


    His tone remained even, yet the gravity of his words enveloped the hall in a heavy silence, drawing every listener into a shared moment of reflection.


    “We return now to rebuild,” Draven proimed, his resolve palpable. “And as we embark on this journey, let us remember that true unity is not forged in fear, but in purpose. Let tonight be a testament to that truth.”


    He nodded slightly toward his father, an acknowledgment of the legacy he carried. “That is all.”


    A prolonged silence followed, but soon transformed into apuse, beginning as a respectful rhythm that blossomed into genuine appreciation.


    Randall nodded once, a flicker of pride hidden beneath hisposed exterior. “Well spoken.”


    Seated among the guests, Wanda’s gaze remained fixed on Draven, her mind racing as she absorbed his every word—the effortless authority in his voice, the weight he bore without raising it, and the way Meredith stood beside him, as if she was always meant to be there.


    Her fingers tightened around the stem of her goblet, knuckles paling under the pressure.


    The apuse swelled around her, yet all she could hear was her father’s soft sigh beside her, a sound that resonated with disappointment and unspoken judgment.


    When she finally rose, it was a slow, deliberate motion, her face transforming back into the mask of perfection she wore so well. She smiled, nodded, and presented herself as the dignified daughter of Reginald Fellowes.


    But beneath that polished exterior, a smoldering jealousy flickered, alive and simmering.


    As some guests began to meander toward the exits, the chatter in the grand hall thickened, a tapestry of voices weaving through the air.


    Randall had just dismissed the gathering when a delegate d in silver armor from King Alderic approached, bowing low before Draven.


    “Your Majesty’s envoy requests a moment,” Randall stated smoothly, his tone unwavering.


    Draven inclined his head in acknowledgment. “Very well.” He then turned to Meredith, his expression softening. “You may go on ahead. I will join you shortly.”


    She nodded once, a silent understanding passing between them, before she turned toward the long corridor that led out of the banquet hall.


    From across the room, Wanda observed the exchange, her heart racing. The simple trust reflected in Meredith’s nod and the protective warmth in Draven’s voice felt like shards of ss scraping against her insides.


    As Meredith walked away, unapanied and vulnerable, Wanda’s pulse quickened. ‘Perfect,’ she thought, rising gracefully to her feet.


    The corridor was serene, adorned with high, arched windows through which moonlight spilled, illuminating the polished floors like a silvery river.


    Meredith walked with steady grace, her expression calm, her thoughts drifting toward the sce of solitude.


    “Luna Meredith.”


    Suddenly, a voice sliced through the tranquility, smooth yetced with challenge.


    Meredith slowed her stride and turned to face Wanda, who stood at the end of the corridor, her gown glinting like a de in the soft light.


    “Miss Fellowes,” Meredith replied, her tone polite yet cool.


    “You left early,” Wanda remarked, taking purposeful steps closer, the sound of her heels echoing in the stillness. “I thought it rather rude not to extend a proper wee back to Stormveil.”


    A faint, almost sardonic smile curved Meredith’s lips, a smile that did not quite reach her eyes. “That’s very thoughtful of you.”


    “Is it?” Wanda’s smile sharpened, her words dripping with sarcasm. “I merely wished to ascertain whether the rumors were true—if the new Luna has indeed learned how to hold her head high among wolves who still remember what she once was.”


    Meredith tilted her head slightly, herposure unshaken. “And what was I, Wanda?”


    “A cursed, wolfless girl from a medicine pack,” Wanda replied softly, each sybleced with venom. “Some of us were surprised to see you seated beside him tonight. Others found it merely amusing.”


    Meredith’s gaze remained steady, unflinching. “Then they must have found the evening entertaining.”


    For a fleeting moment, Wanda hesitated, caught off guard by Meredith’s calm response. “You don’t seem to mind being ridiculed,” she observed.


    “I havee to understand that wolves tend to bark the loudest when they are frightened by what they see before them,” Meredith countered, her tone even and almostpassionate. “You used to bark in the same manner.”


    Instantly, color flooded Wanda’s cheeks, anger igniting her features. “Careful, Luna,” she hissed, the title spilling from her lips like an insult. “You might forget whom you’re addressing.”


    “No,” Meredith replied quietly, stepping closer until they were nearly face to face, her gaze unwavering.


    “I remember precisely who you are. You are the woman who believed she could humiliate me and walk away unscathed. But tell me, how does it feel to watch the man you desired defend someone else in front of an entire hall?”


    Wanda’s lips parted in shock, but no words emerged.


    Meredith’s smile was faint yet serene, like the gentle glow of moonlight. “Next time you wish to challenge me, choose your battleground wisely. Corridors echo, and you wouldn’t want everyone to hear what desperation sounds like.”


    With that, she turned away with quiet dignity, her steps deliberate and steady. The fabric of her gown whispered against the marble floor, each movement a testament to her restraint and grace.


    Behind her, however, Wanda’s breath quickened, the sting of humiliation burning hotter than the wine she had consumed.


    ‘How dare she speak to me like that?’


    How could Wanda endure such insolence? In a surge of fury, she closed the distance in two swift strides and seized Meredith’s wrist.


    Meredith stiffened, her head snapping around to meet Wanda’s gaze, the warning in her eyes unmistakable.


    “Let go,” she said evenly, her voice steady andmanding.


    Wanda’s grip tightened, her nails pressing into Meredith’s skin, a fierce defiance in her posture. “Who do you think you are to speak to me in that manner?” she spat, venomcing her words.Conclusion
