[Rose’s P.O.V.]
In the past two days, everyone had been preparing for my Luna ceremony. Edward said that according to tradition, this would be much grander than the welcoming ceremony. The castle would invite the family representatives of all the members of the pack to have dinner together before they witnessed
my coronation together.
‘When Edward and I went to the dining hall for breakfast in the morning, we bumped into Patrick who had just returned from somewhere. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that he was all smiles.
“Patrick, seems like you just came back from somewhere.”
“Yes, Luna. I was with Diana the whole of last night.”
“You’re amazing, Patrick. What trick did you use?”
“Luna, I’m very sad that you actually think that I’m a person who takes advantage of others. I just hugged her to sleep. Although we kissed, we didn’t do anything else.”
“Oh my God, is this still you, Pat?” Jane joined us. Her eyes were as wide as brass bells as if she didn’t believe Patrick’s words at all.
“did say that I would take my mate very seriously.” Patrick shrugged and slipped away. He knew that if he continued to stay, he would be at the center of the gossip vortex.
During breakfast, Edward received a message from his father, instructing the former to meet the latter at Edward’s office with me.
Once we arrived at Edward’s office, Alpha Leon and an old man with silver hair walked in soon after. Edward had told me beforehand that his name was Brennan, the elder in charge of Sunset Pack affairs in the Council of Elders. He had specially made his way over to preside over my Luna ceremony, and I
had expressed my respect for him.
Elder Brennan started to go over the entire process of the Luna ceremony with me. Then, he gave me and Edward the oaths that we each needed to recite publicly later. I glanced at it and noticed that my portion of the oath made up the majority. This was a challenge for me. After Elder Brennan left, I
immediately began to recite.
“Babe, there’s still a whole day left.”
“Lknow, but I’m afraid that I’l forget it during the ceremony. That would be so embarrassing!”
“Okay, but I still want you to relax. I don’t want this ceremony to be a burden to you, my Luna.”
I stood on my tiptoes and kissed Edward, then continued to recite the seemingly awkward oath.
‘When afternoon came, I heard a knock on my room door. It was Luna Taylor and Jane. They had arrived with my custom-made dress.
I put it on and walked out of the closet. Luma Taylor and Jane exclaimed. Luna Taylor’s eyes even started to tum a little red.
“Rose, my child, do you know how beautiful you are? You look just like your mother.”
Hearing her say that made my tears begin to well up too. I touched the roses on my dress. If only my parents could be there tonight to witness my Luna ceremony.
Jane comforted me and patiently waited for me to recover before working on my makeup and hair.
When everything was ready, I looked in the mirror. I couldn’t believe it. Not so long ago, I had been a lowly slave – beaten, abused, starved, and humiliated. Now, I was dressed in my Sunday best with makeup on, soon to be the wife of the Alpha of the largest werewolf pack in America. I was grateful for
them all.
At this moment, Edward came in. Just one look at him and I felt my heart almost jump to my throat. His hair had been meticulously combed to match the luxurious black silk robe he was wearing. His skin glowed as bright as day, showcasing the sculpted features on his face. I didn’t know why, but I
always felt my heart beat faster for him and he had said that he felt the same for me.
“Just what kind of good deeds had I done in my previous life to deserve such a dazzling lover in this life?”
My Alpha was never stingy with his compliments, which made me jump into his arms.
“Babe, we are about to head downstairs to attend the dinner party now. However, | still have to remind you that if something unexpected happens later like last time, you must suppress your emotions and leave everything to me. Of course, if someone wants to hit a rock with an egg, I won’t show mercy
even if you plead in their stead.”
I nodded. I knew he was afraid that I would reveal my ability, allowing that someone in the dark to find me. But it suddenly gave me a bold idea.
After tonight, maybe I should study my ability so that I could study and work on it, instead of waiting for someone to come take me away or even kill me.
I didn’t want to live in fear forever. I might be Edward’s darling, but I also wanted to be a good Luna who was able to fight in times of crisis.. But the key question now was, how do I tap into my ability?
