Nothing like her

Emily reveals that she is the Luna of the lands up south, King Talon’s sister, and Axel’s godmother.

Do something stupid
As Violet accompanies Emily to the vehicle, she’s exposed to Monty, Emily’s mate, who’s abrasive and disagreeable, causing Violet’s discomfort.

Upon arrival at a cemetery, Emily leads Violet to a specific tombstone, where she pays her respects to her deceased best friend, Dawn.
