Chapter 169
Back to Iris point of View:
“Hello, baby girl”
“Who are you? You’re so beautiful…” I was amazed at the very tall figure in front of me. Was it a man or a woman? but she was very tall.
“Beautiful? I’m a man, baby girl” The man said giggling and made me laugh along with him, is he a man? but he’s very beautiful.
“I’m sorry, but you are very beautiful” I said again and made him smile again which made me look at him again.
Wow…
“Are you sleepy baby? Get some rest now…” I don’t know what made me follow his instructions, but not long after, I felt my b*dy weaken and I fell asleep not long after and woke up back in my room.
Who was that beautiful man? I thought I was confused but since then, I no longer saw the figure of that man again
Who is that beautiful man?
I met him at the morning market back then and that was the first and last time I met such a beautiful man that I couldn’t forget him.
I didn’t even know his name, was he a real person and not my imagination?
I was 5 years old at the time and since I never saw him again, I forgot about the incident.
Every year on my birthday I always received a strange gift from someone who called me ‘Baby Girl‘, wasn’t the only person who called me that was that beautiful man?
The first 1 to 3 years I always remembered him and waited for his gift, but as things happened and he never reappeared I forgot about him.
Yes, I forgot about that beautiful man….
And today is my 16th birthday, where many of my friends have already started to find my mate but it seems that I will not find it yet, because until now I have not felt the strange vibrations that my friends described when they turned 16 years old
Will I not find my mate at 16 like Drake Jr?
Yes, everyone thinks that I’m the mate of my little friend who I consider my older brother, but seeing how he treats me the same as before, like a little sister, I feel like he’s not my mate.
Knock Knock…
“Are you ready?” Asked my mom, the queen Luna as she entered my room.
Yes, today is my 16th birthday…
T
An important day for she–wolves, where usually they will find their mate or not, but also when a werewolf will unite with their wolf for the first time.
And I can’t wait to meet my wolf.
“I’m so nervous, mommy” I told my mother who gave me a warm smile before she stroke my hair lovingly.
“Why are you nervous?” She asked softly with that characteristic of hers that made me love her so much, yes, this mother of mine would be very strict but she was also very gentle so that’s what made my rigid father melt
to her.
Sometimes I also want a mate like my father who loves my mother wholeheartedly and is willing to sacrifice for her. Hopefully my mate will do the same for me as my father did for my mother.
But I know that I’m still too young to think about a mate, yes, my mother had a career and skills as a doctor
that made my father proud of her before they met each other and I want to be like that, making my mate proud when I meet her.
Not because I am the heir of my father the Alpha king, but also because I am me, without any frills of the Alpha king’s daughter or descendant.
“That I won’t have a wolf?” My answer was low as a whisper, but I knew she could hear it.
My mom smiled and pulled my hand until we were sitting on my bed “I have something to tell you, dear” My mom said softly while pulling me to sit down which made me raise a confused eyebrow but said nothing and followed her.
My heart was racing as I sat in front of my mother, waiting for what she would say to me.
“Did you know I didn’t have a wolf before?” My eyes widened at that and I shook my head slowly.
What?… Is she serious?!
“No, mom, I didn’t know” I replied quietly in shock.
She smiled warmly “Yes, I used to be wolfless or have no wolf until one day a miracle happened and Destine was loaned to me” She told me softly and quietly which made me stare at her in awe of my mother.
I had never heard that she had gone through such a hard time, it must be hard if you don’t have a wolf for a werewolf but all I had heard about her was how great of a person my mother was never about her being wolfless.
“Borrowed?” I confirmed something to her, who nodded her head again.
“Yes… Borrowed, my dear” She replied confirming “And lately Destine has been telling me why your hair is the same as hers” Again her words confused me, which made her chuckle before giving me a warm hug.
“Mom?” I called out as I felt the warm embrace she gave me felt different.
“Destine told me that she would be yours and no longer mine” She whispered softly and made me gasp loudly.
