Thankfully, Raymond was looking at another place It felt so good to see her in her birth clothes again. Despite the fact that she has been bedridden for weeks, her body is still as glowing as ever " Just don't drown," Carnelian said casually, and Adriena smiled " I won't," she said and went into the bathroom " Or better still, use the direct shower, not the bathtub," he said out of concern " I will be fine," she said While she was taking her bath, Carnelian was paying attention to the bathroom and Raymond. He made sure to listen to her heartbeats, and when he was not satisfied with the heartbeat alone, he mindlinked her " Let's me concentrate, " she said and cut the mindlin

As they said, it is better to get with it once and for all," he said nonchalantly and took Raymond from her hands " But, is next week not too soon?" she asked " No, dear," he said while looking into her eyeballs " We should do that now before any obstacles again. I know you have been waiting for that day all your life, and it is about to come to reality. The first one was a facade, but this one is a dream come true. You will be the Luna of this pack, you will rule by my side, and together, we can rule this two pack together, " he said " I know, I don't just think that I'm ready for the great task by next week.

THIRD PERSON POV What are you two laughing about?" she asked as she took her seat beside them " Hmmm, nothing," Adriena said sharply " Well, i have to have something go tell you guys," Sheila said " Really?" Adriena asked her as she looked at Luciana suspiciously " Guess what?" Sheila said, not knowing that her upcoming news is no longer a news " What?" Lucy and Adriena said, pretending not to know what she was about to say. They need to tag along and not spoil the vibes " I've found my mate," " MATE!!" Adriena and Lucy did not allow her to finish her sentence as they said the word mate together, and Sheila was surprised as to how they both know about it " How did you guys know?" she asked and looked at Luciana specifically " Lucy!" Sheila squealed, and the two ladies burst into laughter " What? It is a good thing, and now we will stop hearing about how a guy asked you out on a date and you rejected him all because you are waiting for your mate," Lucy said " Lucyyy," She
THIRD PERSON POV " Alpha," Lucy and Sheila said at the same time, bowing a little slightly " Hello, love," Carnelian said to Adriena and pecked her on the forehead as he tickled Raymond cheek.

So, if you would like, would you please excuse us," Callous said and went to hold his mate hands " Very well, my good friend," Carnelian said, and that was when Callous and Sheila took their leave " Alpha, we will also have a good night as the party goes on," Taylor said as he also took his mate hand and w

He is going to have to some time with his godparents. Just keep on leading the pack, right? " Lucy said, and Adriena scoffed " How many weeks ahead?," Adriena asked, suddenly using her head to indicate that she was talking about the pregnancy " I don't really know. I just don't want to give myself the burden and unnecessary fear before the birth day," Lucy answered her while rubbing her stomach " There is nothing to fear, Lucy," Adriena persuaded her, and Lucy just smiled " I'm serious. You don't need to be afraid of anything, Taylor will be there with you that day, so you won't have to pass through this alone," Adriena said again " You will be there also," Lucy said suddenly " Pardon," Adriena asked her confusingly " You will be there while I labour," she sa

You got to be kidding me," Adriena said as she walked towards the kitchen to pour herself a drink " No,no,no, not that," Taylor said and collected the cup from her " Why? It is just wine, just wine, Taylor,"she said in defence " Just wine, I know, but you are heavily pregnant, just wine may be prohibited," he said " He is right," little Raymond said while looking at both of them " Even a lad knows that I'm right," Taylor said as he was pouring Luciana a cup of juice " He has a strong energy, and somehow, I don't know if it is possible,but you are carrying an alpha. Is it possible, uncle?" Raymond said and asked the same time looking at his go

But we need to give respect to whom respect due," Adriena said " Mother," Eva greeted Adriena, and Adriena smiled as she gave her a hug " How are you coping with him?" Adriena asked, and Eva smiled as she looked at Raymond eyes " Everything has been good since you've left the pack," she replied to her " We've never left the pack. We are still under the pack," Adriena said, and Eva laughed " Yes, of course. You are still under the pack," Eva said " It's been a long time," Adriena said as she beamed with a smile " Yeah, it is two years?"

Both him and Eva sat down at the same second, and after that, the Alphas in the room sit " Dawn Pack," Raymond called out,his voice reverberating across the room, and the Alpha of the Dawn Pack cowered in fear " Yes, your majesty," he answered Raymond and stood up Raymond expected him to say something more than the reply he gave him.

She lay on the bed and closed her eyes,meditating,thinking about nothing Mira noticed Eva silent attitude " Don't tell me you are deciding on going back into the shell?" Mira, Eva wolf asked " What do you think I should do?" Eva said back to her wolf " Well, I don't know. But we did a lot together, before you can be this outspoken.

He ordered the person to open the door " Come in," he said, and a pair entered the room bowing her head slightly, and she spoke without raising her head up " Alpha Carnelian ordered me to call you and ma'am," she said,using the word "ma" am as she did not know what adjective she could use to describe Eva " Do you perhaps know by chance what we are being called for?" Eva asked " No ma'am. But I was told to tell you to prepare for shifting," she replied to her without raising her head either " Okay. You can go," Raymond ordered, and the maid exited the room " Shifting?"

RAYMOND'S POV Writing and sending letters to the neighbouring packs and the one beyond,who have not heard about the True Alpha,telling them about it " You shouldn't make it compulsory for the packs far away. Just tell them that we now have a True Alpha, and if they wish to succumb to his authority, they are free unless they have a True Alpha at their region," Alpha Carnelian said " That's right. The packs that you want to rule don't have a True Alpha,so it is easy that way. But those far away packs can have a True Alpha that we haven't heard of," Uncle Taylor,father Beta, said " Okay," I said and continued writing the one I was writing initially before I got interrupted " I think that's all," I said while checking if there was a pack I had not written to, and when there was no,I stood up " Good," I said " When did you plan on going?"

RAYMOND'S POV I shouted at her for the first time ever, I could have done better. I could have made a joke out of it,but I chose to shout, and now she is afraid I might hurt her She didn't tell me that she is, nor did it show in her facial expression that she is. But I know that, deep down in her,she is afraid I might hurt her " Eva," I called her slowly, and she widened her eye orbit, indicating that she was listening, but I needed her to answer me not just with facial expressions but with her words " Eva?"
