Shaman pointed at the moon. "I was waiting for it to become full before calling you. Can you make out how it looks like it is shackled by the thorny vines! Just like her tattoo! This could be an indication."

I stepped closer. "Indication of what?" I asked, my eyes going wide as I studied the pattern.

my mind warred between hope and fear. I felt violently protective toward her. If she was the answer, then danger lurked closer than I thought. Remus growled inside me, demanding to luck her away, to shield her from my enemies who would stop at
