Shiela’s POV
He is now formally recognized as the god of war pack’s Alpha . After his father spoke, Ashley walked up to the podium .
Everywhere erupted into screams and shouts as soon as he stepped on .
I was envious when someone cried, ” I love you Ashley , look at me ! ” from the audience .
I won’t make her drink from the toilet unless I know who said it .
I paused before concentrating on Ashley and his father .
” This moment, right here . Ashley will provide a decision in his initial case as an Alpha .
As you are all aware, the situation involves the unappreciative daughter and our new pack members .
” I’m sure you’re wondering who this ungrateful daughter is, ” I said .
” That witch of a daughter Athena is who it is, ” Athena said . Few holes appeared in the throng while he spoke .
” Let me tell you a little story that was intended to be kept between your parents and I . ”
Witches were once accepted into our pack with the condition that they not perform magic on the other members of the pack . That was the case 38 years ago .
Short narrative, I guess .
We discovered 18 years ago that witches were to blame for our pack’s decline and deaths .
” We all sat together to discuss the issue, but the witches are not giving up, ” someone said .
A significant magic battle that resulted from it almost claimed the lives of thousands of members of our pack .
All of the witches were killed, with the exception of one who gave birth .
” The daughter was left but the mother was killed shortly after giving birth . ”
Left since she had nothing to do with the assault .
Later on, the Betal family adopted her .
Everyone, including myself, could only look shocked when he stopped talking .
She received treatment and was raised like one of their own .
I still couldn’t believe she was a witch .
Does she realize she’s a witch ? Without realizing it, I uttered what I was thinking aloud .
No, we didn’t, because if we did, she would reveal her true identity once she knew who she was .
Dad of Ashley replied to me .
He said, staring forward, ” That’s why we never ask her to practice with you lycans because she can’t transform to a wolf like us .
Additionally, that explains why she was almost imposing herself on your Alpha and was never mated .
He pointed to Ashley and remarked, ” Even if she knew he has his own mate, ” but his eyes were on me .
like giving you the I know you’re his mate look . I had to turn my head aside and blush .
Why isn’t he merely able to skip that part ? I pondered as I turned to face the stage .
” Let me now make room for your Alpha . ” As everyone applauded and Ashley stepped on, he remarked .
As he got up, he was still looking at me, and I could feel myself dancing for our mate .
When he saw me arrive, I can still picture how his eyes almost flew out of their sockets .
When I noticed him virtually pulling apart my dress with his stare, I couldn’t help but smirk .
then take my hands . He was busily testing his eyes on my shape even while I was speaking my pledge .
With those deep-set eyes on me, I wonder what’s on his thoughts .
Greetings, fellow lycan ! The four corners of this garden might hear Aria’s rich voice .
Even I shivered at the sound of his seductively rich voice . Is that word sexy ? No, not me; my wolf did .
As you are all aware, I am now your official Alpha . Today, I want to make some changes .
When he saw me arrive, I can still picture how his eyes almost flew out of their sockets .
When I noticed him virtually pulling apart my dress with his stare, I couldn’t help but smirk .
then take my hands . He was busily testing his eyes on my shapes even while I was taking my oath . One, I want to update this rule, which has been in place but could use some adjustments .
The rule reads, ” An Alpha cannot mate with a weak or human, or he or she will be killed . ”
This regulation has caused many people to make mistakes they sincerely wish they could go back and fix, he claimed .
He hasn’t taken his eyes off me since he began speaking .
I never once had the impression that he was discussing our relationship .
” That same rule has had an extremely negative impact on me, making me want to retract everything I’ve said and done . ”
I’m sure you’ve all heard about my Mate , and some of you may have even seen her before, but you haven’t actually seen her .
My body began to heat up as soon as he said this because I was afraid of what the pack would think of me .
I’m standing here today to sign the law that prohibits mating with anyone if you are a member of the lycan family .
Anybody, wolf or human, strong or weak . You are free to adore and treasure the individual .
Any lycan, whatever of position in this pack family, who mistreated their Mate because they weren’t this or that, would face severe consequences .
” You must sincerely love yourself and your other half, equal, or spouse in equal measure, if not more . ”
He paused before continuing as everyone let out a happy howl . Even I was unaware when I gave him the thumbs up while grinning .
” I’m not there yet . I need assistance pleading with my Mate to pardon me .
Because of how the previous law was written, ” I leapt to conclusions and thought she was weak and was afraid to be the one to destroy my mate . ”
” You are the strongest woman who will fight on the pack’s terms even when you haven’t been approved, ” said the pack leader .
” You are the proper one who can led the herd along with me, ” I said .
” Shiela Morrison is my friend ! ”
All of the pack members were forced to bow in submission to me by Ashley .
How can these adults bow to me, a frail young woman of 18, when I can’t even see the person in front of me ? I wondered .
” When I look up, I see that his mother has extended her hand to me .
She whispered, ” It’s time Shiela , ” and she walked me to Aria’s side after I put my hand on hers . then went .
Shiela Morrison, I sincerely apologize for the suffering and heartbreak I have brought upon you .
He murmured, kneeling down and grabbing my legs .
” I’m not asking for much; all I ask is that you find room in your heart to pardon me . Let’s start anew from scratch . ” Still standing, Ashley
said .
” Our Luna, if you could pardon our Alpha . ” The pack members bowed while saying .
With a smile beginning to appear on my face, I thought, ” This bastard definitely has a way with words . ”
I can’t believe he let his pride to let him grovel to me .
Before it’s too late, Shiela better seize your affection, my wolf advised .
You have always been pardoned, Ashley . As I raise him with my hands, the words flow out of my mouth .
I pecked his cheek as he turned his face to face with me before moving on to his neck and saying .
But you have to earn my trust, young man . As he massaged my back, I retreated and said .
I Ashley Tusa embrace you as my mate and other half, promising to stick by you until we pass away .
Everyone muttered ” thank you for forgiving him, ” which he said .
Bring the two traitors out now !
While still holding me close to him, he spoke in an Alpha tone .
The rogue and Athena were brought ahead . Athena was imploring with her eyes while focusing solely on Ashley .
Her face didn’t change till his hand reached my waist and me .
