Chapter 314

• The reports spread like wildfire through Mooncrest and the bordering packs.
• 【In recent weeks, the Enforcers of the High Council completed an arduous investigation and pursuit, successfully bringing closure to a string of bloody retaliations... Carmen of Ashmoor Academy, accused of multiple killings, was seized alive after resisting arrest.
