Myron stood at the base of the stairs patiently as he waited to escort Anna to the ball, compared to a few hours ago when the king had arrived, he was now in a tuxedo, and his hair was slicked backward giving one a full view of his enchanting face.He felt kind of nervous, they were going to appear today in front of the representative of the whole realms as mates, after this night, there was truly no going back. He has to accept her as mate and Luna along with the thousands of envoys in the realm. After all, the king was here to endorse her and give her his support as her father. Even though he and her had done a good job in the past few days posing as one loving couple, this night was everything. They had to ensure the envoys believed he was in love with her as she was with him so that their pack standing would be good, but was this the only reason he was eager to do this? Hell no, he was seizing the opportunity to claim his right over her and call her his. Myron wasn’t a fool, eve
Myron and Anna walked into the hall where the party was now in full swing under the probing gaze of the crowd and just like all the other guests, their first move was to approach the king to say their greetings. Myron, however, was surprised by what he saw, Anna wasn’t bluffing when she said she could decorate. Brightly colored drapes lined up the walls of the hall and ran across the edges of the four large chandeliers in the hall, whose light had been changed from warm yellow light to shrilling white lights, the white light from the chandeliers illuminated the hall making it look flashy. On the right side of the hall was a large table filled with drinks, food, snacks, and all sorts of assortments, while a line of servers stood next to the wine bar, filled the empty wine glasses, and served the thirsty guests. On the top right corner in front, a band was present and they were busy playing a piece of slow music, which was enticing and calming, while on the platform where Myron alway
“Ladies and gentlemen,” King Herman called the attention of everyone a few seconds after the music stopped and they all looked at him with rapt attention. “On behalf of my family and the entire kingdom which you all have come to represent, I would like to say thank you to everyone present at this royal ball. I know the news of the change of venue came as a shock to many and many feared for their safety due to the various rogues incident that has been plaguing our realm but still, you all honored my invitation, I am grateful for your support.” He slightly raised the wine glass in his hand to all the guests as he greeted them. “I organized this ball mainly to make a very important announcement. As most of you know, I have a daughter, one that I cherish and adore so much and have kept hidden from the realm and its people for her safety. Anna?” He looked in her direction.“Please come up here, darling.” The king called and everyone followed his gaze, staring at Anna and making way for h
Anna finally let out a sigh of relief when she saw the guard place Myron in his bed. After he fainted on her, she pushed him off her after mustering all her strength, but that was not where her misery ended. There was no guard on site so she had to practically drag him to the door of the mansion, bearing his weight all on her own until she finally found this guard who came to her aid.“Can you ask the cooks to prepare him something for the hangover?” She instructed the guard as she arranged the duvet that she had earlier used to cover him. She looked up when she noticed she didn’t get a response and the man didn’t leave only to see that the guard was giving her a weird look, she was confused.“Is there a problem?”“The Alpha does not need a hangover soup or anything, he would be fine after a few minutes of rest.” He informed her even though he was still confused as to why the princess, now turned heir, was so ignorant.“What do you mean? We might heal fast but alcohol is different,
“Did you really find your mate?” Archie asked Anna as he saw her out of the room, She stopped in her tracks and gave him a forced smile. In fact, she wasn’t really sure where she was with Collins, she knew she had no feelings for him, but he was also deliberately pushing her toward Myron instead of making an effort with them and Myron confessed to her... she was so confused about the whole thing right now.“Who is he?” Archie asked her and Anna looked at him. That question was the one thing she had wanted someone to ask her but now that Archie asked, she was reluctant to say it and she didn’t know why. Could it be that she was ashamed of Collins? True he was not as perfect as Myron but then he was not that bad, it’s just his indifference, “Why don’t we talk about him later? I need to go check up on Myron, he was pretty drunk earlier too.” She excused herself and hurried away after throwing him a fake smile.Archie stood in place and stared at her with a worried expression, all he co
A thousand miles from the Blood Moon pack, an off-road jeep drove at full speed past the ‘70m/hr.’ sign, the driver ignoring it despite traveling through the narrow road with lots of bends. Avi looked out the window of the passenger’s seat in which she sat staring at the pitch black greenery that surrounded the road, her mother behind the wheels. She had never come this far before in her life, she didn’t even know which territory this was or if the realm extended as far as here. She and her mother had been on a road ever since they left the pack three weeks ago in search of the witch, Sierra, which she wasn’t even sure they would find. Her mother had gotten a lot of clues from her acquaintance but even until now, there was no hope of finding the witch and all they had achieved on this journey was to go further and further away from the pack.Avi had a frown on her face. Right from the beginning, she had not been in support of this journey, she saw absolutely no reason for it, these
It was like walking down memory lane again, how could Avi forget that night? The night that changed everything in her life. Even if she didn’t remember it for how memorable it was, she would always remember it for how scared she had been. She had never been that scared in her life. The trees in this forest were similar to those except they didn't have the nightmarish appearance she had seen that night. She thought as she looked around the thick forest in which they walked. When they had seen the light from the building that didn’t seem to be far away, her mother had ushered her back into the car and they soon found a route that led there, except the place was not as close as they thought. Soon they packed their car and continued the journey there on foot. Her mother didn’t seem bothered at how significantly stressful all these were, come to think of it, she didn’t even seem bothered that night thirteen years ago when they went in search of Sierra either. Perhaps she had always been h
“What?!” Avi exclaimed. She couldn't believe what she was hearing, this would witch want her soul? Was she kidding her right now? She looked at her mother, was she hearing this? Wasn't she going to say anything?Nicole looked at Avi and frowned, even she didn't expect the witch to ask for something as serious as a soul. She felt the witch was just making things hard for them on purpose, maybe she didn't want to help them but even if she didn't want to help, she couldn't let go. She had to convince the witch to help. She couldn't let go of this desire.Never!“But… if she gives you her soul, how could she possibly be mated to the Alpha? She would die.” Nicole antagonized and Avi breathed a sigh of relief.She knew that her mother didn’t do it because she loved her but because she was the only candidate she had for the Luna’s position but still, at least she had enough sense to know that she couldn’t be a Luna if she was dead!“Oh, she won’t die.” Sierra gave Avi a taunting smile as if
