ARIA’S POV
"Aria will be my Luna from today henceforth and she is going to run all the affairs of this pack. I expect everyone to treat her as you would treat your Luna, with respect." Alex declared and gave a slight bow, and so did the others.
It was my Luna crowning ceremony, and I still hated the word "Luna".
It's been two weeks since I came to this freaking pack and I hate it here. They hate me here because I am a witch.
"I am going to do my best to serve this pack," I muttered to the crowd that was gathered in front of the pack house. Alex smiled.
I am doing all this for Alex. I have lost everything because of this love we have. He was all I got now.
The ceremony began and there was some wolf-cultural dancing. I sat close to Alex, he held my hands. The other elders sat by our side, each casting glares at us.
"They all hate me," I whispered to Alex and he glanced around for a moment and frowned at me.
"No, they don't. I told you that whatever you are feeling is all up in your head,"
All up in my head? Is he freaking kidding me? How doesn't he see all the hate that is being flooded my way.
"Alex, it isn't in my head, I know what I am feeling, they hate me," I replied, scowling at him.
"Feelings do lie, babe."
"I am beginning to think my feelings for you is all a lie then, " I retorted and he chuckled, pulling me to him affectionately. I could feel all the stares at us but at this point, I was in Alex Zone, only him and I. His eyes pierced into mine and I could feel his hands move from my hands to my elbows, caressing them gently.
"All these feelings can't be a lie," he whispered, his hands were sending shivers down my body and I couldn't control the fact I was getting wet already down on my thighs.
"Alex," I shrugged. "They are all watching,"
"I do not care, I will shut down this party now and take you right here," he said, his tone was hoarse, and I swallowed. I knew him enough to know that he was crazy enough about doing it.
" You want to take me here? "
"Dare me," I was getting wet in my thighs with every word he spoke.
He pulled me into a hug but it was only to shield with my body what he was going to do next. His hands slid down my blouse and rested on my legs, "I feel you are already wet," he whispered to my ears.
"Alex people are watching, and….and" his hands were moving down, although there was a table in front of us covered by a tablecloth. But I still felt so conscious like the whole pack was glancing at us.
"Um, Alpha Alex," a voice called out, and we quickly stopped what we were doing and looked up at Liam, Alex's Beta wolf who was towering over us.
"What is going on Liam?" Alex scowled at him. He didn't like that Liam had interrupted us. My eyes moved down to his length underneath his cloak, it was hard, and it could be visible because of how hard and big his length was.
"Some of the Alphas want to specially greet you and your Luna in the study," he spoke, pointing at the other side of the room. I frowned, this was the last thing I wanted to be subjected to some feign pleasantries.
"Which Alpha is that?" Alex asked, his hands still moving slowly on my thighs. I was getting wet and all I just wanted to do right now was to have that hard length thrust inside me and not greet some almighty Alphas.
"Alpha Damon and Fergus," he replied with hesitation, and I could see Alex's face change to deadpan, his expression was unreadable.
"Okay, we will be there in a minute," he responded and stood up as soon as Liam left.
"Who are they?"I asked curiously, reaching forth to him and wrapping my arms around his elbows to hold him tight. There was something about his expression that changed as soon as Liam mentioned those names.
"They are my arch nemesis. When I extended an invite to them, I did that out of pure courtesy. I didn't know they would actually come," he replied as we moved toward the study.
"Okay," I replied casually, I have always heard about the war that existed between various Alphas who had to do with the Rivalry pack and rogue wolves. But I had never witnessed any firsthand. Witches were more different; we settled our differences with spells and curses. But here, they go to battle and sever each other's heads in wars.
"Don't engage in conversation with them, they are all douchebags," he warned and I nodded my head.
We moved to the study and as soon as we entered, my gazed moved to the other side of the room and two young men dressed in elegant suit and gold chains in their hands and fingers.
"Alpha Alexander, what a great pleasure to see you," the Alpha with brown hair and blue eyes spoke with a smile.
"Alpha Damon, I wish I could say the same," Alex responded and I glanced at him, his expression was stern, and that wasn't the response I was expecting from him. I was use to the more casual and welcoming part of Alex, but now, he looks unforgiving and formidable.
" Come on, old friend, is that how you welcome your fellow Alpha to a ceremony you invited them to," the other man with black hair spoke with a smug look on his face, he must be Alpha Fergus,"
"Alpha Fergus, when I extended an invitation, I had no idea that you would take it,"
"And miss getting to meet your beautiful Luna," he said as he moved forward to me and stretched forth his hands, I glanced at Alex. "Come on Luna, I don't bite," he muttered with a smirk on his face and I took his hand and he placed a soft kiss on it.
"I am Alpha Fergus, a pleasure to meet you,"
"Thank you," I responded.
"When I heard you replaced Erin for another mate, I wondered why, because Erin was smoking hot, but now I can see why, you got yourself a sexy ass witch right here," Alpha Damon remarked.
"Watch it, Damon," Alex growled at him. I knew there was a dark side to Alex but right now I could see it because his eyes turned red instantly and his gaze was daring.
"Come on Alex, He was just joking, no need to get all defensive, this is a ceremony after all," Fergus cut in, his gaze still on me.
"I want to go get water darling," I muttered to Alex, the tension in the air was thick as a witch's black blood and I needed to get myself out of it. Alex nodded in agreement and I strode away. I heard them muttering something about me being a fine witch as I left, I hate them. No wonder Alex hated them too.
I moved to the kitchen and right about when I was about to enter the kitchen I heard my name and I paused. Two maids were conversing and hearing my name made me interested in the conversation they were having.
"She would never last as Luna here, I am sure the Alpha doesn't even love her that much," the petite maid with a hair bonnet spoke and the other maid nodded.
"Erin was a better Luna than her, she knew how to be one, but look at her, all just pretty, I don't know what a witch like her would know about being Luna,"
"Did you see the way Alex looked at her, I am sure she is only good in bed,"
I had had it enough with these people, I strode in startling them. " No, go on, I would love to know how good I am in bed,"
"Luna Aria, that was,…. That wasn't, …" she stuttered, unable to get any coherent word out.
"I am in a great mood, today being my coronation else, you would know how badass of a witch I am, but next time you two won't be that lucky," I spoke firmly. My gaze pierced right at them.
"We are sorry Luna," they both chorused.
"You better be, " I responded as I strode back to the court. There was some sort of commotion coming from the yard where the ceremony was being held. I stopped one of the girls who seemed mortified when she saw me.
"What is going on?" I asked, and I could see the hesitation in her eyes.
"Luna, Erin is back,"
