Matilda
His piercing gaze checked me out from head to toe as | descended the stairs and he was standing there with his hands pulled backward in a fist, and a wide grin appeared on his lips after his eyes sipped every inch of my body.
Serena cleared her throat, nudging my elbow playfully. “We know how badly you want to spend some quality time with our Luna but before that, you will need to finish the ceremony.”
“Shall we?” He offered me his hand with the most charming smile on his face. | wanted to grab his face and kiss those sweet lips until | got fed up with the taste of his mouth but | had to resist the urge because tonight was important and we were almost late already.
| accepted his hand and he pressed his lips against the back of my hand. My stomach somersaulted when he put his hand under my chin pulled me closer abruptly and started kissing my lips.
My hands fell against his chest as his sudden move made me sta gger but | didn’t trip as | had held onto him.
After sharing a long kiss, he finally let go of my face and addressed everyone. “After the ceremony, we will discuss our defenses and have a solid plan for the war when that cu nt would attack us.
We had less time now as it was already dark and the full moon would be in the sky anytime soon.
We walked toward the front porch of the castle where a few wolves had created a beautiful set-up with the made-up stage in the center.
“Alpha.”
“Luna”
Everyone greeted us and bowed to us as we made our way to the stage. | missed Owen so much, he shouldn't have been ina coma.
He had used all of his powers to heal us so he wasn’t able to recover himself. His power was declining yet he didn’t stop healing the others. | didn’t know if | should call it selfless love or stu pidity,
Owen was lying on the floor, away from the chaos for a while and at least for once. | hadn't expected him to be calm at any given moment so perhaps his end time was supposed to be this way though | wish there could be a way to take his pain away.
“Let's begin the ceremony,” Mom said, looking up at the sky. The full moon was up and it was surrounded by a red shimmering aura.
“The Red Moon is looking so pretty,” | commented, smiling at the Moon.
“Not more than my mate,” Prescott murmured, and | tilted my head to find him staring at me with.

a smile on his face.
| felt the blood rushing to my cheeks and my ears turning hot. His flirting would turn me into a tomato if he continued.
“You should make the official announcement as you were the previous Luna Queen,” Alpha Mason suggested and | couldn't agree more with him.
She was the right and the most deserving person to make the official announcement and pass down the title to me as it should have happened earlier, too. But at that time, my family was missing so we had to arrange everything quickly by ourselves and there was no one whom we could rely on.
“| don’t think that my daughter needs me to pass down the title since she is already the crowned. Queen,” Mom countered nervously. | could hear her heart beating frantically in her chest.
“Your daughter will always need you, Mom,” | said softly after looking at the crowd. They were eagerly waiting for the ceremony to begin. | was edgy about my plan that would get into action tonight. | sent a silent prayer to the Goddess to make everything turn out in my favor.
Mom nodded her head in approval and took a step ahead, standing straight gracefully and facing the people.
“I. Camilla Spencer, the former Luna Queen and the Luna of the Blood Moon pack, announce my daughter, Matilda Spencer White as the Alpha Queen. May Matilda’s reign be blessed by the Moon Goddess for years to come,” Mom announced with her voice of authority and grace.
Take your vows, now,” Mom said, looking in between Prescott and me.
| nodded my agreement and sliced the palm of my hand. “I, Matilda Spencer White, accept the royal title and all the responsibilities of a Queen. | pledge to rule with integrity, compassion, and fairness. I'll put my people’s interests before me and serve people with dignity and rectitude.”
| looked at Prescott who had his gaze fixated on the Red Moon. | gave his hand a small squeeze and he turned his attention back to me.
He cleared his throat and put up a strong and brave face in front of everyone. “I, Alpha Prescott. White, accept the royal title and responsibilities of the Alpha King...” he trailed off as he looked at
me.
“May our reign be a beacon of hope, unity, and prosperity for all our subjects, under the watchful gaze of the divine and the enduring support of our cherished kingdom,” We spoke in unison.
Mom and Avery stepped toward us with the crowns in their hands. | wanted to get done with this as soon as possible. My wolf was howling in the back of my mind. She was happy and relieved to assume that since we had postponed the idea of stealing back what truly belonged to us.
Well, my nosy wolf. You would have to wait for a little longer. Although | was skeptical about my plan and Dylan coming for me... D

“Long live King and Queen,” the hoots and applause erupted through the crowd, making my chest swell with pride.
After the champagne pop-up, the celebration began and we did our first dance. For a while, | forgot all of my burdens and enjoyed the moment in my mate's arms. Our hearts beat rhythmically as we swayed our hips to the music. | put my head on his shoulder to let myself feel the warmth and comfort that | longed for.
“Owen is awake,” Avery informed us, standing beside us. “He wants to talk to you, Matty.”
“Take me to him,” | said, pulling myself away from Prescott who held my hands firmly, showing me that he wouldn’t let me go alone. “Is he okay now? Should | call Doctor Zach, too?”
She shook her head and smiled at me. “Surprisingly, his body is returning to its normal color. | have already asked Zach to come.”
“Seize her, right away,” Avery commanded, earning a thunderous grow! from Prescott. Seven wolves appeared out of nowhere and surrounded me.
