Celina's POV
The morning air felt electric as I stood in the clearing, waiting for the final trial to begin. The Pack Integration challenge loomed ahead of me like an insurmountable mountain. My palms were damp with sweat as I watched the other contestants, each one radiating confidence I desperately wished I possessed.
The weight of dozens of eyes pressed down on me. Pack members whispered among themselves, their gazes flickering between curiosity and doubt. The Alphas and judges stood like silent sentinels, evaluating our every move before the trial even started. My chest tightened with each passing second.
I had no training for this. While other Luna candidates had spent years preparing for leadership roles, I was fumbling in the dark, pretending I belonged here.
