Chapter Forty Six

Emily's POV 

“Oh, they are?” I asked with a slight smile and she nodded.

“Well, that's nice. It's good to know that people know me here in Galahad clan.” I said and she smiled.

“By the way, Luna, what are you doing here?” The maid asked me.

“Oh, it's… What are you doing by the way?” I asked the maid.

“Well, I was giving the security guards some food.”

“Move, let me do it.” I said.

“Why?” She asked.

“Well, I would like to do it, the security guards deserve it.” I said and the maid moved away.

“Fine.”

I took over the maid’s spot and started to hand out meals to the guards untill it was all finished.

“Thank you Luna.”

“Thank you very much, Luna.”

I smiled and watched them all leave.

Then I was alone with Fayne.

“That was nice of me, isn't it?” I said.

“It is.” Fayne said.

He looked around us and said, “It should be enough to get you moving in the future things you'll do.”

“You think so?” I said.

“Yes, you should get some sleep now, Luna.” Fayne bowed his head at me.

“Where do you sleep, Fayne?” I asked him.

He cleared his throat, “At the servant's lodge.”

“Sorry, I've been too caught up in everything to pay attention to you.” I said, and Fayne chuckled.

“That's alright.” He leaned forward to me and whispered, “The sooner you get power, the more I'll be able to walk around unsupervised.”

“Hey! I'm not doing all this hardwork so you can walk around whenever you want.”

Fayne laughed, revealing his teeth. I watched for a moment, taking in every single one of his looks. I didn't want to miss it.

Fayne was incredibly beautiful and If only matters were right, he would be thriving in his own path.

“Anyway, you can go ahead and rest now.” I said and Fayne nodded at me.

“Okay, see you tomorrow.”

“Actually, you don't need to see me tomorrow.” I said.

“I don't have a choice even though I don't want to.” Fayne said, then he turned around to leave. “Go ahead and have some rest.”

I sighed and headed back to my room.

*** The next day 

I woke up to a loud knock on the door the following morning. I rubbed my eyes open and stretched my arms.

“Come in,” I said.

The door opened revealing Melissa with a neatly folded dress in a basket.

I sat up from the bed, “Thank you for coming this early, Melissa.”

“Don't thank me yet, I saw a bunch of people going into the pack's meeting hall. I think you should be there.”

I ran my fingers through my hair. “Please run me the bath, Melissa. I need to hurry up. I'm not sure anyone would want me there but I have to be there, I am the Alpha's Luna afterall.” I said.

Melissa smiled, “Of course.”

She placed down the basket containing the dress on the table and began to walk to the bathroom to prepare things for me.

When she was done, she walked out of the bathroom and turned to me. “My Luna, it's ready.”

I nodded.

I stripped out of my clothes and walked into the bathroom and soaked in the bathtub. When I was done, I dried my body and got dressed in the outfit Melissa brought me. Then I sat in front of the mirror and watched Melissa apply makeup for me. The makeup was beautiful and I ended up looking flawless.

A smile appeared on my cheek and I ran my fingers through my now combed hair. 

“It's done,” Melissa told me.

My skin looked mellow and shiny. I liked that. But at the same time, it wasn't too unnatural looking. It blended into my skin flawlessly.

I gently stood up from the seat and sighed.

“Luna, you should go now.”

“No,” I said. “Not yet.”

I leaned over the table. “I want to make a nice entrance.”

“While we're waiting, should I go and get you something to eat, Luna?”

“No, I can't eat anything when I look this perfect. Although perfect is not the end goal, I still want to look approachable.”

“Luna, you look good enough, no need to put more pressure on yourself.”

“I know.” I said after a second. “Let's go now.”

Melissa smiled at me and nodded.

Then she opened the door for me and we both walked out the door.

As we walked down the hallway, Melissa led me to the meeting room. 

“This is where the Alpha usually has his meeting with others. Please go in, I'll be waiting for you outside.”

“Okay.”

I walked up the stairs and the guards stopped me.

“Luna, why are you here?”

“I hear that there's a meeting here. Don't try to stop me. If the Alpha can go in there, do can I.”

I walked past the guards and entered the hall causing everyone in the hall to look at me.

Jacob looked at the door revealing the guards.

“Alpha—”

“—What are you all doing here, get out!”

The guards bowed their heads and left.

Jacob then looked at me with annoyance clear in his eyes. I could see his annoyance but I knew that he wouldn't dare to do anything to me here with a lot of people. Not to mention, my brother was here.

The moment he saw me, he smiled.

“Sister, what a pleasant surprise to see you here.”

“Brother, how are you? I dreamed about you last night, who would've known that you'd be in this hall?”

“I know, right.” Matteo chuckled. 

“Emily, you're here.” Jacob said with a smile. Meanwhile, I could tell that his smile was fake. “Why don't you sit next to me over here?”

I looked at Jacob and hesitated.

Matteo pulled me down on the seat next to him.

“I miss my sister so much. Why don't she seat next to me over here?”

Jacob clenched his teeth but then he nodded, “Of course you can sit with your sister if you like. It's all thanks to the Donovan pack that I can have beautiful Emily as my Luna.”

Matteo smiled. “That's a long talk. The important thing is do you treat my sister right?”
