In the midst of steep and icy mountains lies the city of Arcanán, anchored beyond where human eyes have ever ventured. Its remote and practically unknown existence is shrouded in obscurity to the world. Only supernatural beings are privy to its location. Surrounded by towering walls atop inaccessible cliffs, it stands as one of the safest and most impregnable of all known places. Only those who are invited may visit, and no one, not even by chance, can pass through the enormous gates that safeguard it.Rumours persist that for centuries, the so-called Greater Archons have dwelt there since they were banished from the celestial city and compelled to live as halves of the souls of werewolves.Whether this is true remains unknown, but what is universally acknowledged is the existence of this city and its strange pack of werewolves known as the Arcano. It is led by the most fearsome and ruthless Alpha to have ever lived, a reason in itself why no one dares to approach the place. He is cal

Seraphim bowed his head to him, realizing that he was a powerful Alpha. He took the Moon in his arms and hurried away, losing himself in the darkness of the night. Aren dedicated himself to marking the territory, to confuse the pursuers, wanting to give them to understand that they were trespassing his area. He saw them arrive, there were more than ten of them, and they stopped at once, sniffing, while they communicated with each other. Then they turned into humans."We can't go on, they went into the Arcane pack's territory. You know that the Cursed Alpha does not forgive anyone who trespasses his area. We don't want him as an enemy.""It's too far away, we have to take the Moon. All this will be in vain if we don't get hold of the Moon, you know what the sorcerers said. Their son will be our undoing. We have to do it!" one of them shouted very loudly."If you order it, we will follow you, but you will be responsible for everything when we turn around if something goes wrong," anothe

In half an hour they were on their way. Her father carried her to be able to walk faster. They had to leave the territory before nightfall. They finally made it. They were out of the village. They sat down to rest for a while. It was already dark. The moon was shining in the sky."Let's see if we can find a cave, my dear. We'll light a fire. It's going to be a cold night.""I think that on that mountain, we might find a place to take shelter."They walked through the vegetation until they reached the side of the mountain. A large grotto was a little further up. They climbed with some difficulty until they finally arrived."Gil, my dear, come. Let me keep you warmer.""Why, Mommy? I'm not cold. It's beautiful here. Look at the stars, Daddy.""Yes, love, it's beautiful. But go put on some more clothes. It's going to be very cold tonight.""Will we sleep here, Daddy?""Yes, honey, we will. Tomorrow we have to decide where to go.""I think we should go to the city. There, my cousin can ho

They accept everything Mrs. Rita offers, which is a lot. They won't need much for a long time. They adapt quickly to their new life. Gil now wears blue glasses that make her look different, but she likes them because people don't give her strange looks anymore. Mrs. Rita has her call her 'Grandma' and treats her as such, constantly gifting her things and taking her out everywhere. She truly feels like her granddaughter.Nara and Serafín are the ones who practically run the business, especially Serafín, who is very good at organizing things, guiding and directing everything. She is truly happy, to the point where she has even asked them to move into the big house, but they prefer to stay where they are, although they join her for meals every day, enjoying the dishes Nara prepares.Gil is sitting in her room, gazing out of the window at the forest. On full moon nights, for reasons unknown to her, she feels an overwhelming urge to go outside, lie on the grass, and watch it glow; it appea

10. THE ALPHAUpon hearing Gil's question, Serafín slams on the brakes and turns to face her with a look of deep concern, which piques Gil's curiosity. "Of my size? What do you mean? Where did you see a wolf as big as me?"Could her father be aware of the existence of her wolf? She notices him scanning their surroundings, his head turning this way and that as if searching for something that might be following them. He restarts the car, visibly shaken. Seeing her father in such a state, Gil reassures him."It's just curiosity, Dad." She says in a whisper Serafin now looks at her and realizes that he scared her, so he takes a breath and tries to speak as calmly as possible. "Gil, my daughter, there are things you don't know, but I need you to promise me something," he says in a very serious tone."Anything you want, Dad." Gil answers, frightened."If you ever see a wolf my size, you must tell me immediately. It's very important, Gil. Promise me! You could be in serious danger, my child
