Love the Wolfless Power Girl at First Sight

The full moon outside the window slowly dipped toward the west as the glow of the spirit–sealing array faded into nothing.

Tessa picked up the broken ring from the ground and tossed it straight into the metal basin where the charcoal still burned.

The flames crackled as they licked the silver shards, charring the engraved words – Forever Yours – until they turned pitch black. From now on, she was free.

Bracing herself on the floor, she stood up. Her legs were still a little weak, but she felt lighter all over. Without the suppression of the blood bond, even her breathing came easier.

“We did it,” Emma said with a smile in her voice. “The spell’s fully broken. The blood bond is gone. There won’t be a trace of Nathan left in your glands.”

Tessa walked to the window and pushed it open, letting the night wind flow in.

The air in the forest carried the fresh scent of grass and trees. Without the weight of the blood bond, even the moonlight felt freer.
