My mate Ryan wanted our pup to take the blame for his first love’s son and go to the Silver Prison for five
years.

The Storm Shadow Pack’s grand hall buzzed with excitement. Pack Elder Gregory stood on the stage, his silver fur gleaming
under the chandeliers.
“Last week, a young wolf’s life was saved by Beta Ryan’s brave son,” he announced proudly. “We’re here to honor this heroic
pup.”
My heart swelled with pride. Marcus, my eight–year–old, squeezed my hand nervously. (1)
“Would the young hero please come to the stage?”
I stood up with Marcus, but froze.
Ryan was already walking onto the stage – with Sarah Blackwood and her son Jamie.
My blood ran cold.
This wasn’t right. Jamie wasn’t the one who saved that pup. Marcus did.
“That’s my achievement!” Marcus whispered, confused and hurt.
Ryan’s eyes widened when he saw us. I wasn’t supposed to be here – I should’ve been visiting the Northern Pack today. But I’d
rushed back for my son’s ceremony.
“This ceremony is over,” Ryan announced abruptly, his Beta authority brooking no argument.
The crowd dispersed quickly, leaving only confusion and whispers in their wake.
Ryan rushed to my side, grabbing my hand. “Celeste, Jamie isn’t my son. You have to believe me!”
