Emily’s wedding was supposed to be the happiest day of her life. Clad in a white gown, surrounded by friends and family, the celebration never happened. Instead, mourners stood around a coffin, their hearts shattered. Emily had passed suddenly, just days before the ceremony. But no one could have predicted what would happen next.
As the funeral began, silence gripped the crowd. Then, out of the mist and into the chapel walked a wolf—majestic, solemn, and with a sense of purpose. He wasn’t just any wolf. He was Charlie, the wild creature Emily had once rescued after a hiking accident deep in the Rocky Mountains. Their bond was unexplainable but undeniable.
Charlie walked straight to the coffin. Without hesitation, he leapt in, curled up beside Emily, and laid his head gently over her heart. No one could move him. No one dared.
Hours passed. The air was thick with sorrow and mystery. And then—someone screamed.
A mourner had stepped closer, eyes catching a faint glint in Emily’s hand. Tucked between her delicate fingers was something no one had noticed: a small, golden charm, smeared faintly with something darker. A clue? A symbol? A warning?
Was Emily’s death truly natural? Or had Charlie returned not just to mourn… but to reveal something far more sinister?
