Chapter 147
I forwarded the new email to Luis. He said he’d handle it. I pushed my phone into my bag and went outside.
I was surprised to find Todd, Lilac, and Zeyneb waiting for me. Todd was most excited.
“Hello,” he said, his arm wrapped around mine.

Hi, are you coming with us?” I giggled. He nodded excitedly.

Finally. I have my girl crew,” he squealed.
“Relax there,” Lilac rolled her eyes playfully. She and Todd have been hanging out a lot, especially since she found out Todd and Eratu were friends.
Hey, future Mama. How are you?” I kissed her cheek.
“I’m good, and you?”
“Just great,” I answered. She gave me a knowing smirk.
After exchanging pleasantries, we went to the first packhouse.
The pack members were so polite and nice to us. I was addressed as Luna. I even discussed a few things with the leaders, especially about the upcoming mating ball we were hosting.
The day was productive.
It was after 3 P.M. when we went back to the manor to get ready for the party.
I hang out with my children for an hour in their playroom. Then went to the walk-in closet after taking a long shower.
I was looking at myself in the mirror. Pleased with how I looked. I wore a satin dress with a plunging neckline and an open back. The dress had a high slit in front. I paired it with pearl earrings. I put my hair in an elegant bun to show off my mark. I did my makeup how I liked it.
The party would be at Jace’s hotel in the city.
I went down the stairs and found my mate waiting for me in the foyer.
The twins were asking him questions about today’s event.
“I wish I could go to a ball,” Sighed Solara, brushing her new dolls’ hair.
They noticed me and turned their head towards me. Their jaw dropped to the floor.
How do I look?” I asked. I tried not to show it, but my nerves were coiling in my stomach.
The introduction party made everything real and official. There was no going back after today.
“Mommy, you look so extremely beautiful, like a princess,” Solara answered, running to hug me.
Boys?” I twirled.
“You look nice, Mommy,”
“Nice?” I narrowed my gaze. Cayden gave me a lopsided grin. I wasn’t going for nice.

Very, very nice, Mommy,’
I’d take it because he was too adorable.
“And what does Daddy think about my outfit?” I said in a sultry voice, my eyes staring as I moved my leg to show off my skin.
Ellis expelled air from his lungs. His eyes darkened.
“You look… Amazing. You are everything perfect, my Love,” his breath shuddered. I smiled and mouthed him a thank you. He took my hand. We said bye to the kids and went out.
The hotel was full of guests. Everyone wore their elegant clothing and jewelry.
All eyes were on us, and my nerves skyrocketed. I leaned closer to my mate and tightened my arms around his.
‘You’re so beautiful. You’re wonderful. Just relax and enjoy yourself, okay?’ Ellis’s mind linked me.
‘Thank you,’ I looked at him deeply. He kissed my temple, and I smiled at that gesture.
No sooner did we step inside than the alphas started to approach us. They congratulated us.
Ellis and I had to part to mingle with other people. Not everyone was friendly to me. Especially the alpha’s daughters, who were unmated. Their father presented them to Ellis so that he could take them as their chosen mates, but he denied them.
“I wonder how Love Chasia managed to trap the most eligible bachelor in the city again. I was happy when they separated six years ago,” one of the ladies said. She glared at me.
She ended her relationship with David Kofflin so dramatically and accused him of wanting money from her just so that she should be with Alpha Carter. She is so conniving indeed,”
“I heard the alpha locked up and punished his real mate, Charlotte, in the dungeons for Love! She is so vicious.”
I approached the three gossipers. Normally, I don’t pay attention to such rumors, but I couldn’t have them spreading forced information to guests at my introduction party. I gave them a dazzling smile,
