PRECIOUS We all started laughing after Nate's utterance, and I guess, it was high time I got him healed and moved on already. There are so many things I needed to learn about my magical wand, so that I'd get prepared whenever there were emergencies just like Nate's. Nate and Miracle started walking towards us with smiles on their faces and I didn't know when mine etched into a smile also. I felt at ease now that the truth about the whole matter was out and right now, I didn't have anything to worry about. I am their mate and it's right for me to be their Luna and moreover, I also am aware about how much they love me. And I especially wouldn't deny the looks that Duke gives me or the way Richmond looks at me like I am his forever person including Nate who has shown how important I am to him by making the dishes, taking care of me and of course the love that I see in his eyes when they land on me. "And what is the love of my life thinking about?" A shudder passed through me, and I l
DUKE I pressed my knuckles together, and a satisfying crack filled the air as I sighed in relief. Looking at what I had typed on my system, I felt satisfied with the results. I have been making arrangements for Precious' Luna coronation and to say it's not tiring then I would be a liar. I got up from my seat and drew the chair backwards and I switched off my system as a yawn of tiredness escaped my mouth. Yes tiredness and maybe hunger too. Precious had come to give me lunch after I missed breakfast but I insisted on getting my work done before having anything to do with food. With the way my tummy is growling right now, I regretted my harsh decision earlier. I felt my tummy rumble again and I immediately put a hand to it, trying to soothe its hunger. I walked around the room that I shared with my brothers before going over to the bed and sat down. Erase. Fell on it. The soft feel of the mattress did well to soothe my aching back and I let my head fall to my left side, my eyes c
PRECIOUS After I checked the fruits in the fridge, I grabbed a tray and piled it up with assorted fruits, two bunches of banana, eight apples, strawberries and raspberries. I placed the tray on the kitchen counter before I went over to the gas burner and boiled water for tea. "Gladys, get me that milk and Milo tin on the top side of the cupboard," I shouted as I watched the water boil. I went to the sink and a maid who was washing the dishes excused herself to give me space to do my business. After washing three cups and rinsing them I went back to my kettle to find the water boiling. Gladys had kept the things I requested on the counter so I made them for us. I placed the three cups on the tray but seeing they were likely going to be uncomfortable there, I took them out. "Get me another tray Gladys," I instructed. She bowed. "Yes, ma'am." "I won't repeat it again. Address me by my name," i rolled my eyes and she looked her eyes down and bowed her head again. "Yes, ma'am, oh
PRECIOUS I was still giggling when I saw Nate. He was bent on, his hands fastening his shoe laces, with his back facing me. He was dressed in a beige shirt and charcoal trousers, each piece tailored to perfection, highlighting his lean physique. The sunlight gently kissed his hair, casting a warm, golden halo around him. As he straightened up and turned around, his eyes met mine, and in that moment, time seemed to stand still. His smile, oh, his smile could light up the darkest corners of my soul. His eyes held a twinkle, a mixture of mischief and tenderness that made my heart skip a beat. With a playful wink, he approached, his steps confident and purposeful. As he reached out to hold my hand, I felt an overwhelming sense of warmth and belonging. "Nate," I whispered, my voice barely audible as he pulled me into an embrace. His rich manly scent missed with cologne filled my nostrils and I inhaled deeply, enjoying the moment. He lifted up my face with his left hand, eyes filled w
PRECIOUS After we had dinner together except for Nate who had to run off before time for some emergency that he claimed to have, I went back to my room to have a rest before our plans for the evening finally came around. I laid down on my bed and shut my eyes, the events of the day wearing off on me. I let out a deep breath as I turned my body to my left, my right shoulder nearly kissing my chin and I let the cool night breeze blowing through the window caress my face. Someone pushed me out of my swing that I was pushing myself in a carefree manner and I tumbled on the ground with my tummy making a hard thud against the rough floor. A loud whimper of pain escaped my mouth and I landed my face on the ground when I tried getting up. Whatever it was that pushed me to the ground I didn't know. But as I tried getting up, I felt a kick on my round butt and I fell back down, my body rolling so that I was now laying with my back to the ground, my front now facing a shadow that I couldn't
PRECIOUS "Please don't paint me beyond recognition," l begged the make-up artists that Damon hired to do me all over. I had disagreed in getting professionals to make me up but he had been so adamant that I had to give in at last. "Yes, Luna." One of them who introduced herself as Melanie chuckled. She was the one in charge of my face while her friend was in charge of my hairstyle and I had a designer that made my dress as well. Basically three weeks had passed since my mates and I arrived from our holiday trip and today is the day I am going to be announced as the Luna of the pack. I have been thrilled but nervous at the same time, knowing that with this comes responsibility for me. I leaned into the chair I was sitting on and closed my eyes to feel comfortable. I let them take care of me today and from tomorrow, I will be in full charge of my makeup, hair style and dressing. "Please open your eyes Luna," Melanie said cheerfully, and I blinked my eyes to find her grinning fr
PRECIOUS But as I opened the door, my mouth hung open as I took in the scene before me. There were red glowing roses decorated on the floor and its scents drifted into my nostrils. Standing before me were photographers who started taking pictures of me the moment I stepped on the roses. I could see the excitement and admiration on their faces as they watched me and I couldn't help the pink color that washed over my doll-like face. I sniffed in the air and I felt the presence of my mates but I could not find them anywhere. But I knew they were there somewhere because of how strong their scents were reaching my nostrils. I stopped for a moment and turned back to look at the ladies still in my room. They waved their hands and blew me an air kiss and I felt my eyes stick up with unshed tears but I quickly blinked them back inside to prevent them from spoiling my face. As I was walking down the hall with the group of telegraphers still flocking behind me like cocks following afte
PRECIOUS Grandmother stood with beaming smiles on her face, and my eyes widened in astonishment. I didn't know she was coming, so I left Tiger's hand after getting a nod from him and ran slowly towards her. This was a surprise for me. I knew there were times I didn't want her around because then I only needed my family members by my side, but right now, I knew I needed her back in my life. Knowing that I was going to be responsible for the pack now, I needed every piece of advice I could get. I ran into her arms, and she wriggled me in her embrace as I sniffed her scent. She released me and twirled me around, and I would have fallen off my feet had Duke not caught me by my waist. I flew into his arms, and our eyes held for a long time. His gaze drifted to my lips and lingered there. I licked my lips as a longing for him tore at my core. Duke's face broke into a playful smirk before his lips met mine. As he kissed me, he carried me up in his arms, more like in a princess style, an
