My father leaned his body backward, resting his back on the couch. His fingers tapped the couch and hummed. I didnโt know why he didnโt ask his question right away. So, I asked him again. โFather, your question?โโMimi, what do you think of serving Anna? Considering your rank is higher than her, it is quite unusual for you to serve her.โ My father tapped the couch again. Mimi smiled. Glancing at Anna for a few seconds then back at my father, she cleared her throat. โElder Horace, Mistress Anna is good to me. She also considered it weird for me to serve her, but Iโm happy to serve her.โโWhy?โ my father asked. โShe is nice and kind. Mistress Anna actually did most of the job.โ Mimi shrugged and let out a sigh. โI feel bad to know I can only serve little things for her.โMy father hummed for a while, then suddenly he asked Anna. โSo, Anna, why did you do most of the job Mimi should do?โAnna bowed her head to my father. โElder Horace, with all due respect, Mimi is my superior. She is
~ Anna/Victoria ~After Elder Horace and Elder Tom left Cameronโs house, Melanie held my hands and grinned. โSo, what do you have in mind about the dress?โโThe dress?โ I stared at Melanie, confused by her question. โOh, come on! You will be our Luna soon! I think they will announce it soon after the marking ceremony.โ Melanie let out a dreamy sigh. โImagine how beautiful the scene will be: our Alpha and you as mates on the marking ceremonies.โ She giggled and raised both hands, expressing her excitement by moving her hands. โCongratulations, mistress!โ Mimi hugged me. โItโs a wonderful day!โ Then she kneeled before me. I frowned and offered my hand. โPsi Mimi, why do you kneel? Please rise.โโMistress, I have a request, please? Can I continue being your maid?โ Mimi asked, staring at me with a pleading look. โI enjoy working for you, and being your maid is a great honor.โโAlso a prestige,โ Cameron added. โYou will be a Mu, instead a Psi.โMimi shook her head, but she blushed. โI d
We had a busy morning afterward. Mimi guided Rhos to enter the living room while she disappeared into the kitchen to prepare snacks and drinks. At first the Rhos were perplexed when they came. They stared at Cameron to get a clue of why he asked them to come to his house. โPlease, have a seat first,โ Cameron said, gesturing his hand to point at the couch. โMy woman will join us soon.โI could hear Cameron as his living room was connected to the hall. I didnโt move fast because I was careful when I stepped downstairs. When I was in the living room, the Rhos stood as they might already guess that I was the one Cameron referred to as his woman. I smiled at them and nodded. โThank you for coming. I need your help a lot.โ โWe, not only her,โ Cameron corrected me. He offered his hand to me, and I held it while I took a seat too. โI think my father or Elder Tom hadnโt told you anything. But besides Mimi and Melanie, you will be the first people who know about our upcoming event.โThe Rhos
Before we continued our discussion, Melanie came with eight Mus. They chatted cheerfully along the hall. When they saw me, they smiled and bowed their heads. โGreetings, mistress.โ I stood and gestured at the couch. โThank you for coming. Please have a seat.โ Mimi brought some additional chairs from the dining room so all Mus could sit. Mimi then returned to the kitchen as before. She returned with a tray of orange juice and sandwiches. โWe want to congratulate you first, mistress,โ a Mu said, representing other Mus. โWe heard from Melanie you would be our Luna in three days. Itโll be an honor for us to cook you the food for the ceremony.โI nodded and smiled. โThank you so much. I know you have been working hard for a few days ago. Now, we must ask you to do the same. So, please cook food that is easy to prepare.โOne of them shook their head. โMistress, serve our Alpha and you will be our honor and pride. Considering you are our Alphaโs true mate, we must prepare for the best.โ
Three days was too short a time to prepare for our big event. As it was a once in a lifetime event, I wanted it as a moment I could treasure forever. At first, I didnโt get it why Elder Tom suggested it. I agreed because I was happy I could be Cameronโs mate, and no one would suggest that he had someone else as his mate anymore. However, after taking a nap, I wondered if it wasnโt too hasty. I didnโt need a grand ceremony, but three days of preparation seemed too rushed. Yet I changed my mind, as I already had my dress. The Rhos also picked the same color shade of flat shoes for me. They even prepared a special veil. I was eager to see it, but as it wasnโt finished yet, they asked me to be patient as they wanted to surprise me on my big day. The Mus showed me their kitchen in their building. Though they worked daily in many houses, they had a building to work in whenever our pack had a special event that required them to work together. Evelyn, Elder Horaceโs maid, visited me every d
It was shocking news. How dare he threaten our pack?! I was nervous to wait for the result of the meeting. Since Cameron didnโt ask me to go with him, I couldnโt know the result before the meeting was finished. I grasped my hands. I couldnโt just sit here! With the threat of war looming, could we truly have our marking ceremony in two days from now? Suddenly, my pup kicked my belly. I took a deep breath and rubbed my stomach. โWhat do you want, my pup? Mommyโs here.โ My pup kicked again. I didnโt understand why, but I felt my pup supported me. Smiling and caressing my stomach, I whispered, โThank you, sweetheart. Mommy loves you. Yes, everything will be alright.โWhen I wanted to go upstairs to rest, there was a bell ringing. I strolled to the front door and opened it. Mimi rushed to the front door too, but when she saw I was already there, she only smiled at me and returned to the kitchen. It was a teenager at the door. I smiled at her and asked, โHello?โโUh, hello. Miss Anna, uh
A young woman sat on the couch. When she saw me, the woman stood and bowed her head. โMiss Anna, itโs an honor to meet you.โโOh, you are so kind. Please have a seat.โ I sat on the couch next to her. โI got a message for you. Here you go.โ The young woman gave me a pink envelope sealed with a heart shape. I grinned and opened the seal. There was a piece of card with a heart shape too inside. I pulled the card from the envelope and read the message. โPlease dress well, my mate. I will wait for you at the Moon bridge today at 3 p.m. Go alone because I have a surprise for you.โ It was two hours from now and Moon Bridge wasnโt too far from here. I smiled and placed the card on my chest. โDid Cameron say anything when he gave you this?โ โUh, I didnโt accept the envelope directly from our Alpha, miss. But the messenger said it was from our Alpha for you. I only sent it to you.โI nodded. โI understand. Thank you for delivering it to me.โThe young woman stood and bowed her head again. โI
It was a smooth trip, as the traffic wasnโt as full as usual. I checked my appearance through a small mirror I bought in my handbag. Everything looked good. I smiled to imagine what we would do on our date. Maybe we would go to a romantic dinner, then continue to a nearby hotel to spend our night together. As I wore a white lingerie matched with my dress, I imagined it might create a virginal impression. Letting out a sigh, it was weird. Though in the second life I was a virgin again but I didnโt embrace the moment as a virgin. I thought I wasnโt a virgin anymore because Billโthe vampireโraped me and stole the moment from me forever. But who would have thought I was given a second chance? Even in the second life, I didnโt know I was reborn as someone else in her body. Both experiences were painful, but with Cameron, it was brief and more surprising than shocking. I guessed we couldnโt expect everything to happen according to our wishes. Having the second chance itself was more than
~ Lisa ~ Susanne entered my room in a rush. Her face was gloomy. โMiss Lisa, we must leave the pack immediately.โ I raised my eyebrows. โWhy? Whatโs wrong?โ Susanne opened my cupboard, packed some of my clothes there. โAlpha Cameron came with his troop. Itโs better for you to stay somewhere safe. If all have been calm, we can return here.โ I let out a sigh. Susanne might be right. Rubbing my belly, going elsewhere would ensure my pupโs safety rather than staying here. So, I took my handbag, filling it with my jewelry and some gold plates I had. Then Susanne and I walked to the garden, and after passing the secret passage, we were already outside of our pack. We walked without conversing, as I was nervous. Hopefully, nothing bad would happen in our pack. We headed to the Dark Forest where my family had a small house there. Susanne unpacked the luggage and put my clothes in the cupboard there. I checked the table and the food buffet. The stock was full. I let out a sigh of relief
Cameron let out a heavy sigh again. โYesterday, I killed Lisa and Billโs father. I didnโt plan it, but he attacked me from the side. Bill saw his father die and attacked me too.โ He put his chin on my head. โDid Bill โฆ die too?โ I asked, wondering if itโs the reason Nate was so gloomy lately.โNo, I put him in the dungeon. I donโt want to kill him because it will add more heartache for Lisa. However, letting him alive will be dangerous.โโWhy?โ I clenched my hand. โHe raped me a few times in the past life and turned me into a vampire. In the current life, he tried to rape me again, even he asked our former Elder to pay someone to kidnap me.โ Shaking my head, I blew my breath. โIf Michael sent me to Bill, for sure Bill would rape me again. He seems to have a distorted idea about love, as he thought loving me was a good reason to rape me. He said it was his expression of love.โ Shuddering because of that, I hugged Cameron more tightly because it was too frightening to think how someon
Cameron brought me to our bedroom. There were white rose petals too on the bed. I glanced at my mate. Before I said anything, he kissed my lips. I giggled and caressed his hair. โYou made me forget what I wanted to ask.โHe grinned and kissed the tip of my nose. โOh? Let me kiss you again. Maybe you will remember what you want to ask.โ He bent his head and captured my lips in a deep kiss. This time, it wasnโt a short kiss as he didnโt stop the kiss. But he laid me on the bed, inserted his tongue in my mouth, and teased me until I moaned. โNow, do you remember what you wanted to ask?โ Cameron grinned, rubbing my face with his thumb slowly. โIf you keep kissing and touching me, how can I remember?โ I giggled and pinched his hard and flat stomach. โWait for a minute! I want to ask you something. Ah, the rose petals! Did you prepare them yourself?โHe took a deep breath and shook his head. โSadly, I didnโt do it. It was Mimi and Melanieโs initiative. Since they wanted to give us a rom
Then it was time for me to say my pledge. I held both of Cameronโs hands. He lifted my veil, then held my hands, and kissed the wrists. When he looked me in the eye, his stare was tender but intimate. I blushed, knowing it was a promise of a lifetime he gave me to be by my side. I took a deep breath as my heart was about to burst with so much happiness. He squeezed my hand, and I smiled, knowing that we would be together after I said my pledge. Then, closing my eyes, I finally smiled. โCameron Black, from the first time I saw you, I had already known you would always have my heart. Though our journey wasnโt easy, itโs like a dream come true to stand beside you.โ I looked around at our pack members. โNow, we are in the middle of our pack to say our commitment to each other.โThen I could hear the bawl of pups. Trying to find out who cried, I grinned to see Irene and Julianna carry my pups. โThen having our twins,โ I shed my tears. Cameron immediately gave me his handkerchief. I wiped
After breastfeeding my pups, I patted their backs to burp them. Then I let Irene and Julianna bring them back to their room. Later, the Rhos came with my mild green dress. Mimi helped me to wear the dress. Then, another Rhos came with two boxes. The first was a white roses garland. The second was a set of white diamond necklace with white rose shape as its pendant, the matching diamond earrings, and bracelet.I gasped to see the jewelry. It was elegant and beautiful. A Rho smiled and said, โItโs from our Alpha, mistress. He hoped you would wear it today. Our Alpha has another set of heritage jewelry from his great grandmother to his grandmother and his mother, but he wanted you to wear a new jewelry set for today.โTaking my breath, I nodded. The jewelry was lovely. It fit for a Luna. After wearing the jewelry, I gasped again. โIs it something wrong, mistress?โ A Rho asked. I shook my head. My tears damped my cheeks. โThe jewelry โฆ They fit with my dress.โโItโs because our Alpha as
As I requested, Cameron didnโt ask for me to mate with him. We even slept in different rooms tonight. It might be weird as we had done it so many times, even though we had already had our pups. However, I wanted to start our days as the official mates of a new thing regardless it was only an illusion. I still wanted to create a new beginning. My past life was filled with so many tragedies. The current life was a redemption. I didnโt know if I could be a good Luna for our pack, but with Cameron and our pups, I felt I could do anything. Also, I had Nate, Melanie, and Mimi who supported me too. I guessed the Rhos and Mus would help me too in doing my roles. I felt a strong connection with them when they helped prepare my big day. Ah, also, the Theta and Iotas. Wait, I forgot a few crucial peopleโmy future father-in-law and Elder Tom. I let out a long sigh. Cameronโs father was a person who completely changed his mind toward me. It was drastic, from taking me in prison to accepting me a
~ Anna/Victoria ~After laying on the bed for a couple minutes, Cameron and I finally went to the next room. It was decorated in yellow, as I didnโt know if our pup would be a boy or a girl. What a surprise to know we had both. We must prepare another room soon so our pups could have their own rooms from now on. Cameron touched my cheek as I was deeply engrossed in my thoughts. โWhat are you thinking, love?โโWe need to prepare another room so Gavin and Belle can have their own rooms. What do you think?โHe wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my neck. โItโs a good idea, but as they are still newborns, we will have more time until they are one or two years old.โI nodded. โI know, but decorating both rooms will be a new activity for me.โCameron kissed my shoulder and bit it a little. โI have many activities for you, even for now, my darling.โ His hand touched my breast to show what he meant. I only giggled, as mating with him was always fun, satisfying, and fulfilling. So, I
After Nate arrived at the Wild Wolves Pack, I introduced him to Elder Ralph and left Nate to get to manage the pack, as I couldnโt wait to hug and kiss Anna. I smiled as I wanted to see our pups too. The trip to go back to my pack seemed longer than I expected. When we passed a few shops, I asked the driver to stop. I headed to the flower shop first. Looking around there, I picked white roses for Anna. Waiting for the florist to wrap them in a pretty bouquet, I walked to a baby shop next to the flower shop. At first I wanted to buy dolls for my twins, but they were newborn. So, it would be useless. Finally, I picked up a set of pajamas, socks, shirts, and pants. I asked the shopkeeper to wrap them in a box. When I returned to the flower shop, the bouquet was ready. My driver helped me to bring the gift box to the car. Then I placed the bouquet on the box. Hopefully, Anna would like it. I was clueless why I didnโt choose the red roses. Probably it was because of my dreams. I didnโt
I looked around to ensure they listened to me. โI donโt want to make unnecessary conflict, especially as we have a peace treaty.โ Shaking my head, I sighed. โI didnโt blame Lisa either, as she was the victim of this matter. However, if her father didnโt drug her, none of this would happen.โThen Elder Fred stepped forward and stood beside his son. He sneered at me and laughed. โStill trying to find a scapegoat, huh? Itโs all started with you! If you didnโt agree to be my daughterโs mate, it wouldnโt happen. How dare you humiliate us twice?!โโI have explained everything. But you kept pushing your agenda.โ Then I straightened my back and glanced at him. โThe worst thing is you used your daughter as a tool for your own game. You didnโt think of her as your daughter or pack member.โ I shook my head. โI pitied her to have a father like you, but the most regrettable is she has two alphas who did the same to her, regardless they are her family.โโEnough of this bullshit!โ Elder Fred said. โ
