In a blink of an eye, Grand Alpha approached me and slapped me. Wide-eyed, I turned at him as I couldn't believe what he just did."Rachelle!" His Majesty approached me and held my cheek where his father slapped it. "Are you alright?" I didn't answer him as I was still shocked by his father's slap. "Why did you slap him, Father?!" He covered me by using his body as a shield for me."How dare you, Rachelle! I trusted you! And I treated you as my daughter yet this is how you do? Lying to me? You even rejected my son!" Then he turned at his son. "You pathetic asshole... Rachelle is your mate all along and yet you never told me?""I can explain, Father... Please not here."Grand Alpha shook his head. "You lied to me... You lied to your people!" he said angrily. He clenched h

We were at a long table. I was beside Alpha Storm and Crown Princess Cassandra or Luna Casey. On the other side, across us, was Alpha King, Grand Alpha, and Princess Cherish or Captain Iris. They started conversing about political matters which I wasn't interested in. I remained silent. My eyes were focused on my meal. I never intended to join in their conversation. "I heard you will be joining General Cairo's brigade, my dear Iris." I heard Grand Alpha said. That made me glance at him as he was eyeing her youngest daughter. Her Highness gave me a look as she could already feel that discussing that matter was not good since I am here. I just gave her a reassuring smile that I was fine by it even though it pained me. Hesitant, Her Highness answered. "Um... Yes, Father

"I-I don't understand." I released his hold from mine. "Claude, we are getting married. I thought you were going to help me to lead the brigade," I said, sounding disappointed.All I thought was he could help me lead the brigade. I thought he had ideas to make me lead them, instead of General Cairo. He had inflated my hopes earlier and now, it deflated dramatically."That's the point," Claude stated and smiled which made me more confused."I don't understand." I shook my head, having no idea what he was trying to pinpoint right now.Claude opened his palm and gestured to it, telling me that I should clasp my hand with him. I just creased my forehead, not moving and giving him the satisfaction to hold my hand again."Rachelle,

I told Claude about my uncanny encounter. It was very surprising and I felt like until now, I was still dreaming. I even had to ask His Majesty to pinch me to know if I'm in reality or not.But instead of pinching me, Claude suddenly kissed me and bit my lower lip which I smacked his head after that. I was frowning when I told him about the part that the moon goddess said about us and our wolves."Have you had any idea that your mother has come to an agreement on something?""Agreement? Like what?""Uh... I don't know... I felt like the first time I saw her painting was when it was my first time entering the antechamber, I felt like she and your mother had some sort of agreement..." I remember just now the moon goddess's godly female voice which I also heard at that time when I almost fainted upon seeing the painting of Claude's mother.I watched Claude think. "I am not sure... Mother never said anything about it when she was still alive."I sighed. The

We took our strides to the throne room where my coronation will be held. It didn't take long for the ceremony to finish when I had the sapphire crown in my head. Claude and I looked at each other, smiling. He raised my hand with a pride expression written on his face. "Behold, Her Majesty, Luna Queen Rachelle Simon!" he announced to the audience. "Let us serve our people and be their voices." "Long live Luna Queen Rachelle!" "May the Moon Goddess blessed the Waevalon Kingdom, Alpha King Claudian, Luna Queen Rachelle!" "Long live, His Majesty, Alpha King Claudian, Her Majesty, Luna Queen Rachelle!" They all clapped after the loud cheer from the audience. Claude and I looked a
