His expression softened, and a small smile tugged at his lips.

"Sherry," he said, the warmth in his voice unmistakable. "What brings you here?"

I took a deep breath, knowing what I had to say.

"I came to help. As Luna, it's my responsibility to handle pack matters while you're gone. I won't stand by and do nothing."

Leo's eyes widened slightly in surprise, but they quickly filled with admiration.

"You don't know how much this means to me," he said, standing up from his desk. "I've been struggling to replace someone I could trust, someone who could manage things while I'm away. I didn't want to burden you, but I'm relieved you came. I was worried about what Derek and Cecily might try to do in my absence."

He leaned in and kissed me, but it wasn't a kiss driven by passion-it was a kiss filled with quiet gratitude, a tender moment between two people who understood the gravity of what lay ahead. When he pulled away, he studied my face carefully, almost as if he were searching for something.

I looked away, unsure of how to respond.

will delay my journey, but it won't kill my resolve.

The looming war overshadowed everything.

Love and hate seem insignificant compared to the brutality of war.

The only thing I can hope for now is his safe return.

For only when he returns will I be able to tell him everything in peace.

Thinking of this, I silently hid the mobile phone displaying the successful purchase of the ticket behind my back, and smiled at Leo with difficulty, "So... I wish you an invincible battle and a safe return."
