(3rd person P. O. V)
At the party, everyone was busy enjoying the party. Some people were enjoying dancing on the dance floor, some were enjoying food, and some were enjoying drinks while talking. The main topic of most people’s discussion at the party is who will be their Luna.
Some people say it was going to be a daughter of an alpha, some say it’s going to be another slut of the pack, and some say it would be a daughter or granddaughter of a pack elder or the council members. However, only the pack house’s most important members know Luna’s real identity.
“What is taking them so long?” Mike asks, starting to get impatient.
“Alpha, the pack members are starting to get impatient. They also approach me and ask me how much longer it would take for them to come?” Zane asks while walking toward him.
“Do you want me to go and see what’s taking them so long?” Zane asks him. Before Mike can answer him, he feels someone mind-linking him.
“Father, we are here. You can announce our arrival now,” Cole said through the mind link.
“Okay,” Mike said. “They are already here and waiting for their announcement,” Mike told Zane and walked towards the stage.
Meanwhile, Nikki tightens the hold of her hand on Cole’s elbow. Cole put his hand over her hand and squeezed it in reassurance.
“Nervous?” Cole asks, feeling her nervousness through their mate bond, and Nikki nods her head while taking a deep breath to calm herself.
“Don’t worry. Everything is going to be alright. The pack members would have no choice but to love you.” Cole said with a smile on his face.
“You are saying that because you are biased,” Nikki said with a small smile, feeling relaxed.
“Maybe, but I am saying it because I believe in you. I know if anyone deserves this position, then it is you. You will show them what you are made of if the need arises, so please believe in yourself,” Cole said to her.
“Cole is right, Nikki. Don’t forget that you are the daughter of the moon goddess. You are born to rule over their kind, so believe in yourself.” Emma said while putting her hand over her shoulder and giving it a light squeeze.
“And if anyone doubts you, then beat the shit out of them and prove to them that you deserve this potion, and don’t worry about stirring a problem. We will handle that for you,” Stella said while standing behind her to cheer her up.
“Stella, think before what you say,” Rose gently scolded her while hiding a slight smile that was trying to come on her face.
“But Stella was right, Nikki, don’t hold yourself back if someone tries to look at you,” Emma said.
“Thank you, guys. I will do my best and try not to disappoint you,” Nikki said with a huge smile.
“I will go first. Mike is calling me,” Rose said and excused herself, then walked away.
After some time, they heard Mike announcing their presence, and two Omega opened for them as they walked towards the backyard or training ground where the party was held and got on the stage.
“Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to your new Luna, Nikki Walkers,” Mike said while introducing Nikki to everyone.
“Nikki is only 17 years old and hasn’t completed her Luna’s training, so we decided to wait until she turns 18 and completes her Luna training to officially hand over Luna’s position to her,” Mike said to them.
As soon as he completed his sentence, there was chaos everywhere. Every person expects the people who know about Nikki were talk to the person beside them.
“Is she really their alpha’s mate, she is too young to be his mate.” One of the pack members asks the person beside them.
“Yeah, right. Not only is Nikki young, but she is also not claimed by the alpha. Is it okay to have an unclaimed female wolf as their Luna?” another pack member asks another pack member.
“Is she rogue? Or does she belong to another pack?” another pack member asks.
“How can they make a female wolf from another pack with an official ceremony, our luna?” one of the pack members commented in a low voice, but unfortunately for them, everyone on the stage heard it.
“I would prefer if you asked aloud if you have any questions or anything to say to us. I would always be happy to answer you,” Mike announced loudly, getting irritated with all the nonsense spouting out of their mouths, but he could not understand where they were coming from. After all, he would have the same doubts about Nikki if he hadn’t know Nikki from the start.
“Alpha, can you tell us which pack Nikki belongs to?” One of the pack members asks him after gathering some courage.
“Nikki had always been a member of this pack. We just had to hide her existence from all of you for security reasons. Only the most important people with a higher position in the pack had known about her existence, ” Mike explains to them.
“We still wanted to hide it until the right time comes, but something happened, and we have to reveal it,” Cole added after Mike.
“But why did you hide her presence from us? It’s not like we would have hurt our Luna if we had known about her?” another pack member asks.
“Nikki is not a normal female wolf. She was a special child and had many enemies who were after her. So we had no choice but to hide her existence for her safety purpose.” Mike said while making sure not to give her too much information about Nikki.
“What is so special about her if she can’t even protect herself from her enemies? And are you sure that she is alpha’s Coles, mate?” one of the slut Clary asks him.
“What do you mean?” Cole asks with a growl.
“I mean if she is that special then, why would she need anyone to protect her? She wasn’t even the official member of the pack. According to you, she was Alpha’s Cole mate, but he didn’t even claim her. Why did we need to protect her?” Clary asks while walking closer to the stage.
“You?” Cole said while grinding her teeth and walking closer to her, but Nikki stopped him.
“Nikki?” Cole asks, confused when Nikki stops him before he can teach her a lesson.
“Are you saying that I am a weakling who can’t even protect myself and using Cole to protect myself? And I also don’t deserve to be his mate because I don’t belong to this pack?” Nikki asks with a smile while letting her aura slip a little bit. Nikki smiled even more when she saw Clary and other pack members shudder in fear when they felt her aura getting stronger and stronger.
“Precisely,” Clary said with a smirk after composing herself.
“Then who do you think deserves to stand by his side as his Luna, you?” Nikki asks with a smirk and bursts out laughing when she sees her nodding in agreement. At the same time, Cole and others on the stage look at them with amusement, enjoying their bickering.
“Then how about a duel? Let’s have a duel; if you win, then I will give up Cole and become your servant all your life, but if I win, then you will give up on Cole and become my servant for the rest of your life,” Nikki said with a smirk on her face. Cole moves forward to stop her, but Emma stops him and shakes her head.
“She needs to do this to prove to everyone who doubts her capability to be a Luna of this pack,” Emma whispered so that only he could hear it.
“I agree, and I hope you won’t regret it,” Clary said with a smirk.
“We will see, who will regret it,” Nikki said and then looked at Mike as if understanding what Nikki wanted. Mike moved forward, announced a duel between Nikki and Clary, and told everyone to gather in the arena to see the fight between them.
