Ciara's POV

Ciara's POV

I looked at myself in the mirror after the maids already dressed me for the ball at the Alpha's mansion. It would technically be my engagement with the new Alpha Orion. 

A sigh escaped my lips as I looked at the princess like silver dress I've been asked to wear. 

I walked down the hallway and walked past a slightly opened door and I clenched my gloved hands. That was Sophia's room. Sophia should be the one marrying Orion and now I have to be the one to marry him. 

Sophia escaped with her fiance, James the previous week since she was told they would be calling their engagement off for her childhood friend, Alpha Orion to get engaged to her but she escaped and then Lucas broke up with me.

What a matching tragedy. 

I walked down the grand stairs where grandfather was sitting on his wheelchair with Madam Grace standing right next to him. 

"You look beautiful lavender." Grandfather complimented and i smiled and all Madam Grace did was turn for us to leave. I didn't say a thing and just took grandfather from the maid pushing his wheelchair.

"I know this won't be easy for you Lavender because you're in love with Lucas but with Sophia missing, time is running out and the Luna must be choosen from our family because we've agreed to it." Grandfather said and I just rolled my eyes. I hated this arranged marriage with passion and I wasn't ready to deal with it but what choice do I have? 

I have to do whatever grandfather says or he might change his mind and throw me back to my wicked parents in Blood Moon pack. 

"Take the new car lavender." Grandfather said as his personal assistant took him from me and I obeyed. 

My thoughts was clouded as we drove towards the pack mansion. I don't know what Orion would look like and I was sure he would be one of those spoiled brat kids because he was returning from abroad to come and take over the position. 

How will I even deal with it when he realizes I'm no longer innocent and already have a one night stand with a stranger. Grandfather would be so disappointed in me and he might send me back to Blood Moon pack. 

My scared thought was interrupted by the car halting and then I realized we've gotten to the ball. So early? I got out of the car with the guard taking my gloved hands and I walked towards grandfather and Madam Grace. 

"Help your grandfather Ciara." Madam Grace ordered and I hurriedly took over what she asked me to do. The cameras flashed brightly as we walked down the carpet into the large building.

I wasn't really used to this big parties because I opted to stay back in the house whenever I was invited and grandfather never minds but it irked Madam Grace and it was always obvious it did. 

"Old man Heartfield." I heard a much older voice and I saw the Alpha standing before us. 

"Stone." Grandfather flashed him a bright smile and the Luna hugged Madam Grace gently. "This is Ciara. She is the one who would be getting married to Orion."

"Isn't she your Omega granddaughter?" Luna Stone said looking at me with a raised brow and a very not plain eyes. I was used to the stares everyone gave me because I wasn't perfect. I was an Omega after all and a very weak one. 

"Yes she is my granddaughter." Grandfather said and Alpha Stone looked at me from head to toe. 

"Sophia would have been much better if she didn't decide to go with James. Orion still loves her so much." Alpha Stone said as I f I wasn't there at all and Madam Grace butted in.

"Of course, Sophia is much beautiful than her but we don't know Sophia's whereabouts and she should be the one next in line after Sophia because she's A Heartfield." Madam Grace said and all Luna Stone did was fluter her fan with pride before hugging Madam Grace again then she walked away with her husband.

It shattered my heart that they were both looking down on me, despite the fact that I recieve it everytime from people and I've been trying my best to be strong but it wasn't my fault that I was born weak, was it?

"Stay close lavender, Alpha Orion would be arriving very soon." Grandfather said and I hummed before walking towards the dessert table to have something to eat. It was dinner time and I had nothing yet so it was necessary to grace muscle for whoever and however this Orion may look or be like or act like. 

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another Alpha crowning ceremony of the Silver Moon pack. I'm sure half of us were here when Alpha Stone mounted the throne of power to continue our past Alpha's reign. Now, today, we crown our new alpha and get him his new bride." The whole hall echoed with applauds and I was forced to clap my hands too with my face fixed on the grad stars where the new Alpha would be stepping out from. 

"Now, Alpha Orion had returned from abroad and it is the right time for him to take the throne from his father and rule by example like his father has been ruling us all these years." The whole hall was filled with applauds again.

"Without wasting much time, let's welcome, Alpha Orion." 

I immediately felt like the air was knocked out of my lungs as I looked at the so called Alpha Orion show himself. Pinch me, Slap me, throw me away. I had a one night stand with the freaking alpha and he is also my husband to be. And that wasn't the only shocking thing. 

That scent, it was amazingly intoxicating. I could feel my whole sense highten and this kind of euphoria, I've never felt it before in my entire existence.

"Mate!"
