Selena's POVWe walked down the passage that led to the stairs as usual and many guards were situated around the stairs when we got there. I and Lily looked at each other upon seeing them and I kind of figured that it was because of the coronation that they were that many so we didn't need to panic about anything.We walked down the stairs together with Lily in my front and the guards bowed down to me one after the other after the moment they saw me.I could see them giving numerous quick glances at me just to stare at my dress and my new look with the same shock from the previous night on their faces and I met each of their gazes with an icy look that made them look away immediately. I hated the way they all stared at me so I had to make them stop staring. I was the luna and I had the power to do that… With just one look and it was done.“Good job” Lily whispered to me, referring to how I confidently stopped those guards from staring at me by glaring at them, then she walked ahead o
Selena’s POVThe whole coronation process and rites finally came to an end and I just watched from where I sat, how people cheered and hailed Raymond’s name on and on right after he officially became the new alpha of the star moon pack. It was done and there was no turning back now, the plan was going to be set in full motion with more intensity from now on and there wasn’t going to be a choice of looking back or having second thoughts. Raymond was now the alpha and it wasn’t a dream… I was really going to end the man I was pretending to love.With the weight of my whole thoughts and realization settling on me, I sighed to myself in distress because I was the one heading the whole mission. Lily was just there to cheer me on and tell me what to do and what not to do since she was more experienced but she was still in a disguise while I wasn’t. I had to be extremely careful while carrying out any action that had to do with the mission because unlike Lily and Alpha’s guards, I had my lif
Selena's POVI finally snapped out my reverie and trance when I realized that I was staring at Raymond way too long for it to just be an act.The crowd was still cheering for us and I quickly put on a smile to cover up my panicked look after realizing that I may or may not be falling for Raymond all over again. I didn't even know if it was all just an act or if it was real anymore but one thing I knew was that I couldn't let Lily know what was running through my mind at the moment because she was only going to panic and it wasn't going to be beneficial for the two of us.I was still sticking to Alpha’s plan because no matter what was going to happen or how complicated my feelings were going to get, I still knew that Alpha was the rightful leader of this pack and Raymond stole it from him by betraying him and the pack members that didn't even know what was going on.Slowly, I took Raymond's hand off my waist and he gave me a questioning look.“I still need to go out for some air” I str
Selena's POVIt was in two days' time! My wedding with Raymond was in two days time and I was the one that chose the day. I was staring at him with wide eyes and I was speechless too because I didn't know what to say in response to what he just asked me when Lily suddenly linked our minds and told me to choose a day that wasn't too far. Without thinking, I spoke out immediately and told him I was okay with having it in two days' time, and the grin that appeared on his face immediately, you would think he won a chunk of wealth.I sighed as I sat on my bed and made a face. I was stressed and just wanted to sleep in for the night but I couldn't because I had to be present for the dinner feast that was to be held that same night which was just a few hours away.I should have known this was what I was signing up for when I willingly sacrificed myself for Alpha’s cause so I had no choice but to endure and keep up now. I wasn't used to it though, it was still taking time for me to get used
Selena's POVMidnight came, and everyone left for their homes so it was just me, Raymond, Lily, and the guards that were left behind in the courtyard. Alpha was gone from the rooftop too and I felt kind of empty due to his absence no matter how I tried to control how I felt. I guessed I was going to keep on being this way as long as he was my mate because the bond alone was enough to make us feel things for each other.His presence alone was enough to lift my mood throughout the night’s feast and the funny thing was, he wasn't even doing anything. He just sat there and stared back at me but I felt much more comfortable than I was beside Raymond. It was at that moment that I knew that I was just confused about Raymond. He may have been the one that I had been dating and believing I loved but weirdly, the feelings I was beginning to grow for Alpha little by little felt more genuine and even though I was scared that he may end up rejecting me after all of this, I liked how I felt about
Selena’s POVWe remained in that position for quite a while as I stared at Alpha, wondering where he was heading to with the questions he kept throwing at me but a part of me also wanted to let him know that the kiss I shared with Raymond meant nothing and I never even wanted to kiss him in the first place… I just did it to suit the members of the pack. “The kiss was nothing, I just had to play along and you know that” I replied and he growled again before he held my chin higher and I was looking at him directly in the eyes this time.My heart was still beating fast because I didn't know what to expect from Alpha and his questions. The way he looked at me too was setting a fire and butterflies in my stomach and I knew I was already close to losing it if we went on this way. “I don't care if you had to play along Selena, I want to know if you liked it or not,” he asked me again with fiercer eyes and I gulped before I opened my mouth to speak.“I don't know Alpha, I was confused and d
Selena's POVIt was the bright rays of the dawning sunlight that woke me up as I squeezed my eyelids shut tighter to keep the light away because I wanted to sleep more but it wasn't working.After a while, I growled and opened my eyes then I sat up, and opposite me were Lily and Laisha and they were both watching me with their hands across their chests.“Good Morning Sunshine” Laisha greeted in a singsong mocking voice and I rolled my eyes at her while Lily laughed.“There's nothing good about the morning Laisha, you both ruined my sleep” I complained but it only made them laugh harder as I groaned to myself and laid back in bed then I covered my head with a pillow to get some sleep for a few minutes… That was if they weren't going to disrupt that one too.“I guess introducing you two to each other wasn't a good idea after all” I muttered to myself under the pillow and immediately, it was pulled off my head along with my blanket from my body. I groaned as I sat up again and glared at
Selena’s POVIt was hard to make a choice. At the dressmaking place, it was Lily who chose the color, style, and pattern of the dress for me. Now, at the bakery shop for the palace, there were many flavors of cake right in front of me that had been brought for me to make a choice but I still didn't know which to pick out of the numerous choices. It was Laisha who tagged along with me and Lily that did the tasting and at one point, she also got tired of tasting so many flavors that she just advised me to pick simple flavors of my choice that wouldn't put the guest's stomachs in a twist at the wedding.I almost laughed at that but I held myself back… except Lily didn't. She laughed to her content at every funny statement that Laisha made and since Laisha was a funny one, Lily laughed a lot. When the head baker finally brought the last slice of a different flavored cake out, I held her hand to stop her from bringing any more and when she looked at me, I smiled at her.“It's okay Mrs. Mel
