The Luna queen is back

Chapter 6

PRINCE ZADEN POV

I couldn't stop staring at her, but immediately she tore her gaze from me I finally regained my senses. Who was she? Alpha Garren came with one of his daughter to welcome me, but my eyes were roaming around the room for the girl I had just saw, she seems to be no where to be found.

"Prince Zaden, what a pleasant surprise." Alpha Garren said in a surprised tone. "I was beginning to think you were too busy to attend the party" he added. "I always keep to my word Alpha Garren" I said with my hands behind my back and chest up.

" This is my daughter Iris, it's her 18th birthday party " he said introducing one of his daughters to me. "It is a pleasure to finally meet you Prince Zaden" she said smiling covetously at me.

"Please come with me to the dinning hall" Alpha Garren said but I didn't move an inch. "You have only introduced me to one of your daughters Alpha Garren, I asked to be shown both." With this the countenance of his face fell and he turned to Iris but she didn't look at him back. " I assume she is on her way? I said staring deeply at Alpha Garren.

"Here I am" a sonorous voice said and a beautiful girl on blue gown with a sexy figure entered the ballroom. Immediately she entered everyone started gasping in amazement. "Wow she is stunning, who is she? I heard some people say as all eyes were on her as she made her way to where Alpha Garren stood. Alpha Garren looked shocked but he composed himself and introduced her.

" Prince Zaden meet my daughter Enisa" he said and I shifted my gaze to her I eyed her from head to toe and that was when I realized.... She was the same girl I had met in the mall, the gown she was wearing was the one I had bought for her, but how was this possible, the last time I saw her she didn't look like who came from a wealthy family, wasn't that the reason I offered to pay for the dress in the first place? I couldn't help but commend my taste for fashion , she looked stunning in the dress, as if the dress was made for her. She wouldn't make eye contact with me, but immediately she did I felt something her deep blue eyes seemed to be saying something I couldn't comprehend.

" Do come with me to the dinning hall prince Zaden " Alpha Garren said intruding my thoughts. "Of cause" I said walking behind him, allowing him to lead the way, but I couldn't take my eyes of Enisa, what is it about her that was calling me. The hall was enormous and filled with different pack from all over the state. I had to commend on Alpha Garren's wealth, if father really had make a contract worth this alliance then he made a good choice by forming the alliance with the Moonstone pack.

I couldn't concentrate on anything, as my focus was on Enisa she wouldn't even look at me. Just then I felt something stuck in my chest , like a sharp pain I quickly excused myself and went to a secluded place. My heart was beating very fast, all my thoughts became a whirlwind.

"Ryan ! What's happening to me" I asked wincing in pain. "Master I can feel her, she is nearby" Ryan said and I shot a brow. "Well , well , well, finally you have decided to come out of your shell, how exactly do you feel when she is close to you Ryan" I asked suddenly feeling the sharp pain in my chest subside. "I can't tell master, but if my predictions are right, then I would say someone in this party." He said and I felt a cursory relief.

Just then, I turned and met the piercing gaze of Iris. She held out a glass of water to me, I was a bit hesitant, but took it from her courteously. "Thank you" I said holding the glass of water, I had no intentions of drinking it. "Are you okay ? You looked like who just saw a ghost, I saw you leave the dinning hall in a rush and thought that......", "I am okay", I said cutting her short. And all of a sudden I felt a sharp pain in my chest, I was sweating profusely and immediately I gulped down the glass of water.

All of a sudden, it hit me, I turned to look at Iris and she had a wary look on her face." A...are you okay? Do you need some more water?

She asked staring at me but I didn't utter a word. She is the one, my mate!

All this time I have been painstakingly searching , and she was right here. I didn't want to discuss with Ryan in her presence so I excused myself and went to a remote place.

"Ryan, did you feel that? I asked in an apparently low voice. "I think we've finally found our mate, Iris she is the one." "Are you sure master? Do not be in such a rush to make such an important decision." Ryan said with qualms . "I am convinced that she is the one, she has to be, I could feel it." I said in a reassuring manner. "I trust that you will always make the right decision master, whatever you say I will stand by it." Ryan said , I made my way back to the dinning hall and sat down. The whole room was filled with noise, it seems no one had noticed my disappearance, except for Iris of cause.

"I would like to propose a toast," Alpha Garren said standing up on his feet, he held up a glass of wine. "One of my daughters would be getting married to Prince Zaden very soon," he added staring cheerfully at me. I knew where he was driving at, and I braced myself for the outcome.

" But before the toast, as promised, I would like Prince Zaden to make a choice on who is going to be his mate." Alpha Garren said turning to me. All eyes were on me , and instantly I felt a deep gaze staring at me. I turned to my left and saw Enisa staring at me, she didn't take her eyes of this time, I tried reading any meaning to her deep blue gaze, but couldn't fathom any meaning out.

Shifting my gaze back to Alpha Garren. "Iris" I muttered, "I want Iris to be my Luna" I said and the once silent dinning hall broke into revelling, they all rejoiced and couldn't hide their joy. I turned to the direction where I had spotted Enisa a few minutes ago but she was....gone.I knew I had made the right decision but something seemed off, I just couldn't figure it out. With my hands in my pocket, I strolled out of the hall, the noise was becoming overwhelming, and I couldn't think. Just the one thing I hated, a place where, I can't concentrate or trategies what's in my mind.

I found a glass door which lead to a terrace, I went through the door and a sultry night wind hit me. The whole state could be seen from here, if I was right this was the place Alpha Garren keenly watches his pack. The altitude was mind blowing, and the view from up here was...perfect, one could see the stars aligned perfectly dazzlingly in the deep dark sky. Just then I felt the presence of someone, the era was that of a harmless but dogmatic person, I turned around only to meet the dark blue eyes of Enisa.

Even under the darkness night, those eyes of hers still shimmered endlessly. She took some steps closer, it was so quiet that I could hear the heartbeat of both our heart and they were going..... concurrently. " I see you have found my thinking spot" she said smiling exposing a set of white spotlessly teeths. I was baffled by those words off hers, I thought only kings and princesses do the thinking around here, but ......I couldn't be any wrong.

"Do you like the stars? She asked staring deep at me, but I didn't say a word I wanted her to do the talking. My hands were still in my pocket, as I stood chest out without moving a muscle. "I come to this place occasionally, only when I needed to see the stars or.......think of my mother" she said and immediately she said those last words her eyes darkened, like they were lost to sadness.

"Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for the dress. It was very nice of you to pay for such an expensive dress , that too for a total stranger." She said, trying to brighten up she forced a smile on her lips. I had a lot of questions to ask, I know very well I had just saw her mother out there, so who was she talking about. Was Vedica not her biological mother, and the dress ....she could have afforded it but......just the thought of it caused a whirlwind in my thoughts.

"It was a pleasure meeting.....I didn't finish my sentence when I felt something , it was like a connection or something calling me. I turned to look at Enisa, she was the only one here, just then Iris stormed in. She had this sinister gaze as she looked at Enisa before shifting her attention to me. "Prince Zaden, everyone has been searching for you" she said smiling in stealthy a way, she had this sly look. I shifted my gaze and stared at Enisa one last time before turning to look at Iris. "I am on my way ," I said and she left. I wanted to say something to Enisa but I couldn't think of anything to say.

So I just simply turned around and left, one thing was certain I had found my mate and that was Iris, so it's mission accomplished.
