Luna had to think.
She couldn't afford to act recklessly. Every move from here on had to be calculated and precise.
It wasn't enough that she was important. No—The reason for her importance made her a pawn.
She needed more than just the favor of the chief and elders.
There were also a lot of things Luna needed to figure out.
One of the first things she had to figure out was how to transform.
She knew she could—everyone else said she could, too—but it wasn't something she could do on command.
Not yet.
And if she wanted any chance of surviving, let alone taking power for herself, she had to unlock that ability.
Luna also needed to understand the full extent of her strength. What she could do—what kind of damage she could inflict, what kind of power she could wield if pushed.
But most importantly, she had to figure it out in secret.
Quietly. Without raising suspicion. Because if anyone found out what she was planning… she'd be killed before her fangs could bare.
