Jamie!He was amongst the neighboring packs right?Was he going to just leave without seeing me?My heart clenched and ached.“Where's the court room?” I suddenly asked.“It's on the other side of the pack.” Danny replied, blinking at me.“I'll be right back.” I quickly said.I ran out of the Library, passing by a group of wolves walking in.I didn't know what I was about to do but my feelings were hurt that he was going to leave without trying to find me.I just wanted to see him one last time and tell him how much he meant to me.I never got to tell him how grateful I was.How much warmth I felt by just seating with him in silence back then.I ran.Trying to shake my memory to figure out where the pack hall was the last time Aria and Melanie took me there.I asked whoever I could find on the way and soon I was reaching the most magnificent and scary building I'd ever seen in my entire life.It stood tall and intimidating. It gave me a chill. Puffed breathe left my lips. I bent to cl
“He must have known this.” She added, her face in wonder. “Why was he still willing to go ahead with the mating ceremony if he knew this?’ her eyes scanned round the table in thought.The heat swelled and pumped.We all sat quietly after that. Everyone on our table looked tense and unsettled but I had a different problem right now.The heat in my back spread so fast like a tide wave and I bit into my lips to stop myself from crying out.A few other groups performed up the podium while the rest of the hall clapped.I inhaled sharply, pulling myself together before turning to speak with a smile.“I'll like to head back to my room now.” I whispered and Melanie and Aria turned to me.“Okay, I'll just–” Aria, it's just the room. It's not too far from here. I'll manage. I promise.”I was beyond used to being independent for as long as I could remember but I was beginning to feel strange about the fact that they didn't let me do anything here.I realized the very next day that the job at the
I hit my hands on Jamie's shoulder for him to put me down.Reluctantly he dropped me to the ground.The throat cleared again.Both our head's turned and Jamie's eyes widened.He looked back at me and back to the royal family of the Royal pack.He seemed stunned for a moment before he gathered himself.He bowed to greet everyone on the table and then his eyes scanned until they landed on the King and he flinched.I sucked in a breathe. His eyes they were flashing black and gold.His one hand were gripping the table tightly and the other was still gently holding on to the little child. His face blank.I don't think anyone did anything to piss him off just now.“Well, well, well.” I realized it'd been Melanie who'd been clearing her throat. “Who's this Valerie.” She clicked her lips mischievously. Her eyes looking him up and down.I shifted on my feet, all three women positioned attentively as awaited my answer.I looked up to Jamie who was still looked tense from the King's glare.“This
“W-what?” I nearly stumbled backwards.“He…seems unlike himself.” Luna Nymeria continued and I shook my head repeatedly.“Yeah I noticed that too.” Melanie nodded, stepping forward and now staring suspiciously at me.I couldn't believe what was happening.“N-nothings going on. I swear.” I felt like I was about to cry and I was certain I looked it too.“It's okay. I was just joking.” Melanie laughed. “You look like you've seen a ghost.” She held her stomach now cackling and drawing attention of onlookers to us.“Stop it you two.” Aria scolded, her tone dismissive.“Pay them no mind Valerie.” Aria offered me a smile while Luna Nymeria still watched on, unconvinced and Melanie was still recovering from her laugh.Soon we were all walking to the other side of the grounds that held what looked like a hall.The hall was beautifully decorated just like the outside was. I steared clear from Melanie and Luna Nymeria and walked alongside Aria instead.We reached a table that had names written
Alpha Draco rushed forward to his mate. No one could speak, we were all still recovering from the shock.I could not believe I just rudely snatched my hand away like that.I could have hurt her. I shrunk into myself, crawling backwards until I stood on shaky feet.I wanted to speak, apologize but my lips wouldn't move.Luna Nymeria’s stunned eyes looked upwards to my new standing position and then she breathed coming out of her surprise.“It's okay, it's okay. It's alright.” She repeated softly like she was speaking to herself and me.A large weight pressed against my back and I flinched slightly and like a spell my nose loosened and I could finally breathe again.The searing heat came closer to my back and I trembled.“Are you alright?” Alpha Draco asked his wife. His eyes searching for whatever disturbed her world and I knew he wouldn't hesitate before lighting me ablaze.I heard Alpha’s were extremely more protective of their mate's than lower ranked wolves.She nodded, placing he
We all turned to find a blonde haired man standing behind us, a black ethereal beauty beside him.“Draco.” Melanie squealed, in one quick stride she jumped onto the man and like he was expecting her to, he caught her mid way.His arms wrapped around her. A goofy smile appearing open his face.When Melanie was satisfied, her set her on her feet and next, she launched another hug on the lady beside him.“Nymeria how are you?” Melanie said excitedly.They all exchanged greetings while I just stood there gaping at the exceptionally looking couple.It was very much obvious from where I stood. They were glued to her, his hand always reached back to hold her and from the aura emanating from them both I could already tell they held way too much power and status to be just normal wolves.Definitely an Alpha and Luna.I should shrink back from the shift in the air due to the power and strength they both exuded. I had no wolf, I shouldn't have the guts to stand beside them let alone stare this h
