《His Rejected Luna》27
Advertisement
It was about 3Pm when we got home and I took a shower. I took a look in the mirror and I could see my ribs clearly. It was slightly better than when I was back in my old pack. I wrapped the towel over my hair and walk out to see Titus sitting on our bed and two omegas by the door.
"Luna," they said bowing their head in submission.
"Hello," I say. They lift their heads and I give them a small smile. They quickly smile then look back down at the floor.
"They're here to help you get ready for tonight," he said. I nod and he gets up.
"I'll see you tonight," he whispers as he kisses my forehead lightly.
"You're not going to escort me down to the front?" I question. He lightly chuckles and shakes his head.
"That's Jacob's and Brody's job. One on either side of you that way your not lonely," he said. I smile and nod.
"Love you," I said as he opened the door to leave.
"Love you too," he smiles and walks out and shuts the door. The two omegas stood there waiting for my instructions.
"What is your names?" I ask. They lift up their heads slightly to look at me but don't make eye contact. The petite blond spoke up first.
"My name is Natasha," she said. I complimented her name then the brunette spoke up next.
"My name is Cassie," she says. I compliment her name and I smile.
"Don't be afraid to speak up. I bet Titus is fierce but I'm not as harsh as him."
I grab two guards Brody to follow me down to the dungeon. I had Nikolai tie up Lyra and Evan(the warrior) in silver cuffs and let them hang there till I got back. I grab the keys off of the guards and opened the cell up and uncuffed them. I threw the keys back to Brody and grabbed onto Lyra by her neck.
"You have one minute to explain your motive before I make both of y'all rouges I growl. Evan stayed on the ground and coughed.
"The bitch Sophia was taking you away from me," she choked out weakly. I scoff and drop her.
"Wrong answer," I growl. "From this point on both of you are no longer part of my pack and you will not join any other packs. You have 5 minutes to get out of pack borders before I send border patrol on you," I growl. I felt them release from the pack and they growl and quickly run out of the dungeon.

"Give then three minutes then chase then out of pack borders, after 5 minutes they are not out, have your fun with them," I growl.
"I just got a link from Jacob you need to get ready now. They already started filling the ball room in," Brody said. I nod and make my way out of the dungeon.
"I'll link you when Sophia is ready," I said and storm my way out.
Natasha finishes zipping up the back of my ball gown dress while Cassie did the finishing touches to my hair and my make up. It was a red, off-shoulder dress. Ithad a very poofy skirt, I but I could fit Tala and Laura underneath it. To think about it, I haven't seen Tala since I got back.
"You look beautiful Luna," Cassie complimented. I thanked her then there was two knocks at the door. Natasha quickly opened the door and lowered her head in submission.
"Beta, Gamma," they both said. Brody nodded and came into the room followed by Jacob.
"Wow that's a vey big skirt," Brody laughs as he looks at me. Jacob lets the omegas leave and he smiles at me.
"You look beautiful in that dress," he says.
"Of course I'm wearing," I said sassily. Brody and Jacob laugh and hold out their hands.
"We have to make our way to the limo," Brody says.
"Limo? Isn't the pack house like a 3 minute walk away?" I ask. Jacob rolls his eyes and laughs.
"You want to walk in the grass with heels on and there's a chance that your dress could get dirty so yes we're taking a limo for a minute drive.
We drive to the pack house and walked through the enormous halls. I don't think I'll ever be able to navigate my way through this place. We come to the familiar double doors with guards guarding the door. The room was noisy then suddenly got quiet.
"That's our cue," Jacob whispers in me ear. My heart was racing. To say I was nervous was an understatement, I thought I was going to faint the minute i got into that room. I was gonna have the weight of the pack on my shoulders shared with Titus.
The doors swung open and the pack members cleared the middle of the room so we could pass. I wrapped my arm around Brody's and Jacob's and they led me down the middle of the room.
'You don't need to be nervous sweetheart,' Titus' voice said in my head. I smile to myself and nod. I look up on the platform and saw Titus waiting there for me dressed in a suit and a red tie. The three elders stood behind him watching my every move. All eyes were on me as I walked down the room. My heart was pounding so hard against my chest that I think everyone in the room could hear it.

Brody and Jacob helped me up onto the platform and stood behind Titus. In between us, was a golden bowl filled with water. He smiled at me lightly and turned to the pack.
"Today we are all gathered to not only accept a member into our pack but to accept my mate as your Luna," he starts.
"Before we start are there any objections to this addition to our pack?" He asks. The whole room was silent. "And now let us begin with the oath."
He unfolds a cloth next to the bowl to reveal a steel knife. It was no ordinary kitchen knife. It was long and slender and had a short handle. My fingers fumble with the hem of my dress as anxiety crept through me.
"This blood symbolizes my loyalty to you and the union you and I will share as we rule the pack together as equals. We will get through any hardships together like everything we do. I promise to stand with you while we protect this pack. I grant my permission on behalf the pack for you to join the Scarlet Moon Pack," he says. He takes the knife and slits his hand and lets a drop of blood flow down his hand and into the bowl.
The blood swirled around in the water until it became a lightish pink color. He handed me the knife and it felt heavy in my hands. I was terrified. Before I open my mouth Mason steps out from the line of elders.
"Before you begin, are you willingly taking this oath?" He asks. I nod slowly. I was sure I wanted to be apart of this pack but I terrified me. "Then go ahead."
"This blood symbolizes my loyalty to you and the union you and I will share as we rule the pack together as equals. We will get through any hardships together like everything we do. I promise to stand with you while we protect this pack. I accept your offer to join the Scarlet Moon Pack," I repeat without missing a beat.
I bring the knife into my hand and let my shaky hand bring it up to my left hand. I wrap my hand around the blade and quickly pull it out of my fist. Blood dropped off of my palm and into the water. My blood swirled with his and it was only half way done.
I had watched this happen before when my aunt had become Luna of the Nirvana Pack. Titus and I now have to complete the blood oath.
"Now we complete the blood oath. You know how to do that," he asks me in a whisper. I smile and nod. I hand him the knife and he quickly slashed his palm open and held it out over the bowl. I quickly took the knife from him and cut my palm so his wound couldn't close.
I held my palm out to him and we let our blood touch. I felt a searing pain in my palm but it clearly want my pain. Titus slightly winced but it was hardly noticeable. He let go and wiped his hand with the cloth and handed it to me.
"Here is Luna Sophia," he announced. Everyone bowed their heads. I felt special but I didn't need the recognition from everyone. I was just a Beta's daughter.
"Thank you everyone for accepting me," I said. I felt myself connect to this pack and I was released from my old pack. I saw my family in the crowd smiling at me.
"You're all excuses," he announced. As people began piling out of the room, the elders left one by one until it was just Titus, Brody, Jacob, and I.
"Let me see your palm," I said. He held up his palm and the cut was barely healed and was red and inflamed.
"What the he'll happened?" Brody asks when he got a look at his palm.
"It felt like silver when our blood touched. It wasn't the knife because I had already used it before," he said taking him palm away.
"Let's go to the pack hospital and see if they can find out what happened to you," Jacob said. I rolled my eyes and sighed.
"You're talking about me like I'm a disease," I laugh.
"Doctor Jones isn't back," Jacob informed. We nod and we make our way outside.
"Isn't there a dinner we have to get to?" I ask.
"That can wait," Titus said.

Welcome to AlmaVé. First thing you have to know is that it's a tragedy. Nope, not talking about my book yet. It's a tragedy that you're reading this instead of clicking on chapter 1. I did fail speech introductions after all. My story? Right that's what you're here for. My bad, try this: Lilia Hammond is reborn (cliché, but we all know we enjoy it when it's done for a purpose) as Syndra Sanmey. She was a graphic designer who hadn't caught her break yet. She was paralyzed for months before she was offered the opportunity to join a program that would allow her to-NOPE! not virtual reality. The doctors killed her and dumped her body. Tough. In her new world, Lilia has to fight herself to find out who she truly is. With the possibility to cast magic and a second chance at life, Lilia thinks she can really make something for herself. Her goal? Become the greatest artist the world had ever seen. The rub? World is a bit darker than anything she saw on earth. Thankfully, Lilia is getting quite familiar with the darkness inside her and her magic might just be the thing to save the-hey! wait it's not that kind of book. No saving the world. No hero syndrome. Just magic and blood and a bit of crafting. Yup. Fighting. Romance? Eh? What's that? The first arc is Lilia's shift from Earth to creating backstories for the three major characters. It's not funny and light. It's often dark and funny. Ah, I really should have gone through a punk-rock phase. Or goth. Would I look good with black hair? Hmm.. There are three MCs and they are Jackson, Daryl, and Lilia/Syndra. Daryl is currently kidnapped and Jackson just awakened his magic. I don't want to spoil (much) but soon things will be very fun to write. Hope to see you there! Leave a comment even if you're just stopping by so I can say hey! Chapters to be published twice weekly. Check tags before reading.
