The morning sun peeked over the horizon, casting a warm glow over the valley. Today was a big day for the pack—the day Kael and Lyra would be married. Everyone in the pack had gathered, excited and ready to celebrate. It was more than a wedding; it was a new start for Kael, Lyra, and everyone they protected.
In her small room, Lyra looked at herself in the mirror. Her heart raced, filled with excitement and a little bit of nervousness. She hardly recognized the woman looking back at her. Her hair was pulled up, decorated with tiny white flowers, and her dress was simple but beautiful, flowing down to her feet. She looked almost like someone from a fairytale.
A gentle knock on the door caught her attention. She turned and saw Mira, her close friend in the pack, standing there with a warm smile.
"You look beautiful, Lyra," Mira said softly, her eyes sparkling. "Kael is going to be speechless when he sees you."
