Moonblessing Stolen The Omega Who Broke the BondChapter 1

During the Moonbite Feast, I bit down on a silver token hidden in my portion.

The entire den erupted in cheers.

Last year, my mate's sister found the token and the pack matriarch gifted her a territory stake worth ten resource shares.

The year before, my mate's nephew won and received a full set of hunting gear and scrying crystals.

Full of anticipation, I watched as Morwenna Duskthorn smiled warmly and made her announcement.

"This year, the rite has changed. The one who finds the token must bestow five resource shares upon each of the twenty pack members present."

I froze.

Was this a blessing turned into a punishment?

Most importantly, by no coincidence, I actually possessed exactly one hundred resource shares—the Moonblessing payout I'd received just days ago.

——

Morwenna cleared her throat.

"Let us all congratulate Lyra on earning the 'Pack Contribution Honor.'"

She began the applause, and everyone joined in thunderously.

Pack Contribution Honor?

Was I expected to empty my stores for the entire pack's benefit?

What a mocking title.

Vesper Stormhart was the first to react.

"Mother, how much does that come to?"

"One hundred resource shares."
