We had a busy morning afterward. Mimi guided Rhos to enter the living room while she disappeared into the kitchen to prepare snacks and drinks. At first the Rhos were perplexed when they came. They stared at Cameron to get a clue of why he asked them to come to his house. “Please, have a seat first,” Cameron said, gesturing his hand to point at the couch. “My woman will join us soon.”I could hear Cameron as his living room was connected to the hall. I didn’t move fast because I was careful when I stepped downstairs. When I was in the living room, the Rhos stood as they might already guess that I was the one Cameron referred to as his woman. I smiled at them and nodded. “Thank you for coming. I need your help a lot.” “We, not only her,” Cameron corrected me. He offered his hand to me, and I held it while I took a seat too. “I think my father or Elder Tom hadn’t told you anything. But besides Mimi and Melanie, you will be the first people who know about our upcoming event.”The Rhos
Before we continued our discussion, Melanie came with eight Mus. They chatted cheerfully along the hall. When they saw me, they smiled and bowed their heads. “Greetings, mistress.” I stood and gestured at the couch. “Thank you for coming. Please have a seat.” Mimi brought some additional chairs from the dining room so all Mus could sit. Mimi then returned to the kitchen as before. She returned with a tray of orange juice and sandwiches. “We want to congratulate you first, mistress,” a Mu said, representing other Mus. “We heard from Melanie you would be our Luna in three days. It’ll be an honor for us to cook you the food for the ceremony.”I nodded and smiled. “Thank you so much. I know you have been working hard for a few days ago. Now, we must ask you to do the same. So, please cook food that is easy to prepare.”One of them shook their head. “Mistress, serve our Alpha and you will be our honor and pride. Considering you are our Alpha’s true mate, we must prepare for the best.”
Three days was too short a time to prepare for our big event. As it was a once in a lifetime event, I wanted it as a moment I could treasure forever. At first, I didn’t get it why Elder Tom suggested it. I agreed because I was happy I could be Cameron’s mate, and no one would suggest that he had someone else as his mate anymore. However, after taking a nap, I wondered if it wasn’t too hasty. I didn’t need a grand ceremony, but three days of preparation seemed too rushed. Yet I changed my mind, as I already had my dress. The Rhos also picked the same color shade of flat shoes for me. They even prepared a special veil. I was eager to see it, but as it wasn’t finished yet, they asked me to be patient as they wanted to surprise me on my big day. The Mus showed me their kitchen in their building. Though they worked daily in many houses, they had a building to work in whenever our pack had a special event that required them to work together. Evelyn, Elder Horace’s maid, visited me every d
It was shocking news. How dare he threaten our pack?! I was nervous to wait for the result of the meeting. Since Cameron didn’t ask me to go with him, I couldn’t know the result before the meeting was finished. I grasped my hands. I couldn’t just sit here! With the threat of war looming, could we truly have our marking ceremony in two days from now? Suddenly, my pup kicked my belly. I took a deep breath and rubbed my stomach. ‘What do you want, my pup? Mommy’s here.’ My pup kicked again. I didn’t understand why, but I felt my pup supported me. Smiling and caressing my stomach, I whispered, “Thank you, sweetheart. Mommy loves you. Yes, everything will be alright.”When I wanted to go upstairs to rest, there was a bell ringing. I strolled to the front door and opened it. Mimi rushed to the front door too, but when she saw I was already there, she only smiled at me and returned to the kitchen. It was a teenager at the door. I smiled at her and asked, “Hello?”“Uh, hello. Miss Anna, uh
A young woman sat on the couch. When she saw me, the woman stood and bowed her head. “Miss Anna, it’s an honor to meet you.”“Oh, you are so kind. Please have a seat.” I sat on the couch next to her. “I got a message for you. Here you go.” The young woman gave me a pink envelope sealed with a heart shape. I grinned and opened the seal. There was a piece of card with a heart shape too inside. I pulled the card from the envelope and read the message. ‘Please dress well, my mate. I will wait for you at the Moon bridge today at 3 p.m. Go alone because I have a surprise for you.’ It was two hours from now and Moon Bridge wasn’t too far from here. I smiled and placed the card on my chest. “Did Cameron say anything when he gave you this?” “Uh, I didn’t accept the envelope directly from our Alpha, miss. But the messenger said it was from our Alpha for you. I only sent it to you.”I nodded. “I understand. Thank you for delivering it to me.”The young woman stood and bowed her head again. “I
It was a smooth trip, as the traffic wasn’t as full as usual. I checked my appearance through a small mirror I bought in my handbag. Everything looked good. I smiled to imagine what we would do on our date. Maybe we would go to a romantic dinner, then continue to a nearby hotel to spend our night together. As I wore a white lingerie matched with my dress, I imagined it might create a virginal impression. Letting out a sigh, it was weird. Though in the second life I was a virgin again but I didn’t embrace the moment as a virgin. I thought I wasn’t a virgin anymore because Bill—the vampire—raped me and stole the moment from me forever. But who would have thought I was given a second chance? Even in the second life, I didn’t know I was reborn as someone else in her body. Both experiences were painful, but with Cameron, it was brief and more surprising than shocking. I guessed we couldn’t expect everything to happen according to our wishes. Having the second chance itself was more than
I shuddered to hear that. No longer able to hold my breath anymore, I inhaled the wolfsbane scent and gradually, my sight was blurry and all went black. A tickle in my ear woke me up, and I tried to push whatever it was. It stopped, but later, it brushed my cheek. “Wakey-wakey, sleepyhead.” I pushed the ticklish object from my cheek, but the chuckle bothered me a lot. I sighed and shook my head. “Go away! I’m still sleepy. I need more sleep.” “You can sleep again when we have mated, my darling. Now, wake up. I can’t wait to taste your delicious body.” My eyes opened wide as I remembered who the one I talked with was. “You! Stay away from me!” “A-ah!” He moved his pointer finger, gesturing to me not to do what I asked. “I can’t do that, darling.” I scooted backward to create a distance from this traitor. I must think quickly. Without no one knowing where I was, it might be a problem to find me. However, I was sure Cameron would surely search for me. I must buy time. Gulping and
Michael had planned everything well. He was right. Even if I told Bill, there was no guarantee Bill would capture Michael. Well, considering his ego, it was a high chance as he assumed me as his woman. Yes, he told me he loved me, but I thought it was not love. It was more like a creepy and dark obsession. Who was in the right mind could love a woman but raped her? No one I guessed. It’s only Bill. The sick and perverted mind was dangerous as I couldn’t predict what he would do. But Cameron … he loved me. I knew he would come and protect me. What else could I do to delay Michael? I bit my lower lip. Then my pup kicked my belly. I took a deep breath. No matter what, I must prioritize my pup’s safety. In the past life, I had sex with Kenneth because of Constantine’s request. I had a strong reason to do it now. I rubbed my belly. “Michael, can you promise me you won’t harm my pup? Can you treat me tenderly?”“Why? I love it fast and hard.”I gulped, trying to control my voice not to t
~ Lisa ~ Susanne entered my room in a rush. Her face was gloomy. “Miss Lisa, we must leave the pack immediately.” I raised my eyebrows. “Why? What’s wrong?” Susanne opened my cupboard, packed some of my clothes there. “Alpha Cameron came with his troop. It’s better for you to stay somewhere safe. If all have been calm, we can return here.” I let out a sigh. Susanne might be right. Rubbing my belly, going elsewhere would ensure my pup’s safety rather than staying here. So, I took my handbag, filling it with my jewelry and some gold plates I had. Then Susanne and I walked to the garden, and after passing the secret passage, we were already outside of our pack. We walked without conversing, as I was nervous. Hopefully, nothing bad would happen in our pack. We headed to the Dark Forest where my family had a small house there. Susanne unpacked the luggage and put my clothes in the cupboard there. I checked the table and the food buffet. The stock was full. I let out a sigh of relief
Cameron let out a heavy sigh again. “Yesterday, I killed Lisa and Bill’s father. I didn’t plan it, but he attacked me from the side. Bill saw his father die and attacked me too.” He put his chin on my head. “Did Bill … die too?” I asked, wondering if it’s the reason Nate was so gloomy lately.“No, I put him in the dungeon. I don’t want to kill him because it will add more heartache for Lisa. However, letting him alive will be dangerous.”“Why?” I clenched my hand. “He raped me a few times in the past life and turned me into a vampire. In the current life, he tried to rape me again, even he asked our former Elder to pay someone to kidnap me.” Shaking my head, I blew my breath. “If Michael sent me to Bill, for sure Bill would rape me again. He seems to have a distorted idea about love, as he thought loving me was a good reason to rape me. He said it was his expression of love.” Shuddering because of that, I hugged Cameron more tightly because it was too frightening to think how someon
Cameron brought me to our bedroom. There were white rose petals too on the bed. I glanced at my mate. Before I said anything, he kissed my lips. I giggled and caressed his hair. “You made me forget what I wanted to ask.”He grinned and kissed the tip of my nose. “Oh? Let me kiss you again. Maybe you will remember what you want to ask.” He bent his head and captured my lips in a deep kiss. This time, it wasn’t a short kiss as he didn’t stop the kiss. But he laid me on the bed, inserted his tongue in my mouth, and teased me until I moaned. “Now, do you remember what you wanted to ask?” Cameron grinned, rubbing my face with his thumb slowly. “If you keep kissing and touching me, how can I remember?” I giggled and pinched his hard and flat stomach. “Wait for a minute! I want to ask you something. Ah, the rose petals! Did you prepare them yourself?”He took a deep breath and shook his head. “Sadly, I didn’t do it. It was Mimi and Melanie’s initiative. Since they wanted to give us a rom
Then it was time for me to say my pledge. I held both of Cameron’s hands. He lifted my veil, then held my hands, and kissed the wrists. When he looked me in the eye, his stare was tender but intimate. I blushed, knowing it was a promise of a lifetime he gave me to be by my side. I took a deep breath as my heart was about to burst with so much happiness. He squeezed my hand, and I smiled, knowing that we would be together after I said my pledge. Then, closing my eyes, I finally smiled. “Cameron Black, from the first time I saw you, I had already known you would always have my heart. Though our journey wasn’t easy, it’s like a dream come true to stand beside you.” I looked around at our pack members. “Now, we are in the middle of our pack to say our commitment to each other.”Then I could hear the bawl of pups. Trying to find out who cried, I grinned to see Irene and Julianna carry my pups. “Then having our twins,” I shed my tears. Cameron immediately gave me his handkerchief. I wiped
After breastfeeding my pups, I patted their backs to burp them. Then I let Irene and Julianna bring them back to their room. Later, the Rhos came with my mild green dress. Mimi helped me to wear the dress. Then, another Rhos came with two boxes. The first was a white roses garland. The second was a set of white diamond necklace with white rose shape as its pendant, the matching diamond earrings, and bracelet.I gasped to see the jewelry. It was elegant and beautiful. A Rho smiled and said, “It’s from our Alpha, mistress. He hoped you would wear it today. Our Alpha has another set of heritage jewelry from his great grandmother to his grandmother and his mother, but he wanted you to wear a new jewelry set for today.”Taking my breath, I nodded. The jewelry was lovely. It fit for a Luna. After wearing the jewelry, I gasped again. “Is it something wrong, mistress?” A Rho asked. I shook my head. My tears damped my cheeks. “The jewelry … They fit with my dress.”“It’s because our Alpha as
As I requested, Cameron didn’t ask for me to mate with him. We even slept in different rooms tonight. It might be weird as we had done it so many times, even though we had already had our pups. However, I wanted to start our days as the official mates of a new thing regardless it was only an illusion. I still wanted to create a new beginning. My past life was filled with so many tragedies. The current life was a redemption. I didn’t know if I could be a good Luna for our pack, but with Cameron and our pups, I felt I could do anything. Also, I had Nate, Melanie, and Mimi who supported me too. I guessed the Rhos and Mus would help me too in doing my roles. I felt a strong connection with them when they helped prepare my big day. Ah, also, the Theta and Iotas. Wait, I forgot a few crucial people—my future father-in-law and Elder Tom. I let out a long sigh. Cameron’s father was a person who completely changed his mind toward me. It was drastic, from taking me in prison to accepting me a
~ Anna/Victoria ~After laying on the bed for a couple minutes, Cameron and I finally went to the next room. It was decorated in yellow, as I didn’t know if our pup would be a boy or a girl. What a surprise to know we had both. We must prepare another room soon so our pups could have their own rooms from now on. Cameron touched my cheek as I was deeply engrossed in my thoughts. “What are you thinking, love?”“We need to prepare another room so Gavin and Belle can have their own rooms. What do you think?”He wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my neck. “It’s a good idea, but as they are still newborns, we will have more time until they are one or two years old.”I nodded. “I know, but decorating both rooms will be a new activity for me.”Cameron kissed my shoulder and bit it a little. “I have many activities for you, even for now, my darling.” His hand touched my breast to show what he meant. I only giggled, as mating with him was always fun, satisfying, and fulfilling. So, I
After Nate arrived at the Wild Wolves Pack, I introduced him to Elder Ralph and left Nate to get to manage the pack, as I couldn’t wait to hug and kiss Anna. I smiled as I wanted to see our pups too. The trip to go back to my pack seemed longer than I expected. When we passed a few shops, I asked the driver to stop. I headed to the flower shop first. Looking around there, I picked white roses for Anna. Waiting for the florist to wrap them in a pretty bouquet, I walked to a baby shop next to the flower shop. At first I wanted to buy dolls for my twins, but they were newborn. So, it would be useless. Finally, I picked up a set of pajamas, socks, shirts, and pants. I asked the shopkeeper to wrap them in a box. When I returned to the flower shop, the bouquet was ready. My driver helped me to bring the gift box to the car. Then I placed the bouquet on the box. Hopefully, Anna would like it. I was clueless why I didn’t choose the red roses. Probably it was because of my dreams. I didn’t
I looked around to ensure they listened to me. “I don’t want to make unnecessary conflict, especially as we have a peace treaty.” Shaking my head, I sighed. “I didn’t blame Lisa either, as she was the victim of this matter. However, if her father didn’t drug her, none of this would happen.”Then Elder Fred stepped forward and stood beside his son. He sneered at me and laughed. “Still trying to find a scapegoat, huh? It’s all started with you! If you didn’t agree to be my daughter’s mate, it wouldn’t happen. How dare you humiliate us twice?!”“I have explained everything. But you kept pushing your agenda.” Then I straightened my back and glanced at him. “The worst thing is you used your daughter as a tool for your own game. You didn’t think of her as your daughter or pack member.” I shook my head. “I pitied her to have a father like you, but the most regrettable is she has two alphas who did the same to her, regardless they are her family.”“Enough of this bullshit!” Elder Fred said. “
