CHAPTER SIX
ADELIA My lower lip trembled, and I could not help but raise my hands and shield my face, covering my embarrassed expression. “Hmm?” I heard Lewis say before I felt him tucking some strands of my hair behind my ear.” What is the matter?” He gently asked. I instantly felt more embarrassed.
I planned for a long time and yet… I put myself in a situation where I did not know what to do and say.
So I just stayed quiet… and hoped that everything would pass. Thankfully, the moon goddess seemed to answer my prayer because suddenly, we heard a low and powerful grow… indicating the arrival of a royalty. “He’s here,” I heard Lewis say before letting me go. I secretly took a sigh of relief. “You better go to the Hall now,” Lewis told me. All of the wolves must pay respect to the royalty of the wolves, and the howl earlier was a summon for everyone to immediately gather and greet him. I took my hands off my still warm face and looked at Lewis before nodding. Lewis stared at my face without any expression before he told me, “My mark will cover your scent and that punk will not recognize you. Go along.” Lewis’ dark eyes were impassive but looking at them gave my heart calmness and reassurance. I nodded before turning around and walking back to the Pack Hall. In fact, I wanted to ask him when I would meet him again and what was our plan from now on but when I looked into his eyes, I decided not to.
‘I decided to be with him… so I should trust him,’ I told myself as I made my way towards the Pack Hall.
There was an obvious change when I arrived there. Even though they sneered at me, the warriors who were guarding the entrance did not dare to hinder my entrance anymore.
I blinked my eyes as I stared at the high ceilings and beautifully decorated Hall. Even when I already saw the Pack Hall in my visions, it was the first time that I personally experienced being inside of it.
The pack where I belonged, the Pack of Emoresi, was also one of the largest and strongest packs after the royal family. Aside from that, the pack has produced many powerful and talented wolves in history, and so it obtained the respect of other packs. ‘It’s too bad… this pack had become more power hungry… to the point where its alpha could kill his own mate and absorb her wolf just to be stronger,’ I thought to myself. ‘Anyway… they all look so beautiful,’ I thought as I looked around the wolves surrounding me.
Because the prince was arriving, everyone was donned in their best clothings, and they all looked sparkling.
