THE REJECTED LUNA'S FATE.

Chapter 5

‘This should fit perfectly’ she stretched out to me with a smile

‘Yes dear’ I reciprocated the smile.

‘Im so happy for you Lisanda'

‘Yes I would be finally free’

‘Yes, surely’ her smile seemed wounded.

I knew those words didn't come directly from her heart, because her eyes were bland and empty. It felt sour deep down but I needed to believe that it did. My face was looking rough and I needed to wash it in the toilet. I walked into the room and pushed my head down the sink, using the rush to cleanse my face slowly. Within that moment, the memories of my childhood flashed across my mind. I saw my little self running into my mother's warm hands. The laughters, the hush and silent winks.

I knew I was getting late, and when I entered the room. I saw her sat by the mirror, mumbling some words to herself that I couldn't hear clearly. I hope I did hear and I will have deciphered what she was saying. I still felt uncomfortable, but I needed to ease the tension. I had dressed up and I came out. My foster parents were already outside waiting beside thier car, with happy faces. I still wondered the mystery behind their sudeen happiness today because I had never seen them this Happy. Shelia held my gown that flowed freely on the ground. She was eager alongside her parents. The feeling seemed as if they were going to discard me.

‘You are late Lisanda let's go, don't keep the aloha waiting”

‘Yes! Is there anything we are missing?

‘I don't think so it's all safe’

We drove on the road for hours and nobody said a word to me. I quietly watched the thin borders of flowers that wore colourful heads through the window. They were beautiful rose flowers, that had sweet smells. It was the last time that I would smell those flowers, the flowers had ultimately seen my tears now. I was already missing them and now, the feeling appealed to me alone. It was a sort that drew with itself a personal affliction.

When we reached the pack of the Lycan king Nathan, I opened the car door and moved outside. I wiped my brow, covered in sweats with the back of my hand. I didn't have enough time to use handkerchief because I almost appeared late. I shrugged knowing fully I was going to meet my husband. Even though I had not known him that much, I felt betrayed by him. I didn't know why I actually wanted to marry him in a hurry but the sole reason remains that I wanted to save myself from danger. From death. I needed to quickly get married to him, but I had another thought that Shelia could have a son for him because he had slept with her that night. The images were there, and the meanings were still clear to me.

I grabbed the folds of my full gown looking frustrated and tired but I managed a smile through the passage of a large crowd. They knew I wass the daughter of the alpha of the moonlight pack and they payed thier lart respect to them when I was still growing. As they shouted and within that moment, I felt like a queen. I saw Shelia rested beside the car that conveyed us. Her eyes sprawled with envy and jealousy. The crowd had been complimenting me with their shouts while she became non existent for that moment. I was still delighted to be finally free but it came in a flash.

Lycan Nathan came out of his house, dressed in a suit that ran with several buttons at the top. His beard fully shaved and his hair jelled. He was more good-looking than I could ever imagine. And all that he had done to me I was willing to forgive him now. He winked at me, and I shifted my gaze from him to the female guest to ease the tension. His smile was infectious, and I needed abstain from it. It was the mating ceremony. Time to make out declaration while the guests sat watching

He held my hands as we walked down the aisle smiling and looking at all the guests sideways. He really looked happy. It seemed as if he had found everlasting love and peace. When we reached the podium, the priest cleared his throat and looked at me. He wasn't smiling. I knew I had already gotten mated today. To become fully identified as a Luna Queen. He tugged on his glasses as his gaze was fixed tightly on me. It felt as if a thousand eyes gazed at me within that moment.

‘Lisanda Moonlino, the daughter of Mr and Mrs Moonlino’

‘Yes sir’

‘Assure your love for the Lycan king with willingness to support him’

‘Yes sir’

They also asked Nathan the same question while I watched him. A smile graced my lips. It was all going smoothly until My dad walked out from the crowd with a book in his hand. It was my birth book when I was born into the Moonlight pack. It contained all Informations about me. I wondered what he wanted to do with it, in his occasion and I watched him patiently

‘If would have been nice if you knew the truth Lycan Nathan’

‘What are you doing dad's I whispered with little tears in my eyes.

He seemed to ignore me, and his face had tightened like a nutshell willing to explode any seconds. He had been quiet all through the time we drove from home to this pack. He only gave me a reassuring smile, but that smile was no longer there. This face looked like something that was about to explode, to ruin a whole gamut of happiness. I still remained quite to see the stunts he was playing. I saw mother who had been looking at me and when she saw me now, she turned her face from me. I was shocked not to find Shelia around, as I scanned trough the environment in a flash.

‘She doesn't acquire any powers as a werewolf’

‘Uhhhhhh! The crowd produced a suppressed voice in unity.

‘What are you talking about Mr Rodrigo’

‘This is the proof’

Lycan Nathan collected it and scanned through the documents for a moment .I knew I was doomed. Shelia appeared suprisingly with a wedding gown and walked towards us. She held the hands of Nathan, who looked troubled in heart but the mating ceremony had to continue. He had to get mated as the pack demands.

He saw sadness filled my eyes, and the tears that stood in there, were waiting for his approval to stream down. I looked at Nathan, his heart jumped around his chest. I felt his heart wailing as Shelia came forward to be mated to him. I stood there to watch, but I couldn’t do anything. I saw Shelia already dressed in gown, and was only pretending to dress for me. They had planned it like I conceived. I ran out of the occasion with the gown, floating, through the breeze. My mind was not settled, running seamlessly with fear, worries and hatred. My eyes were red and swollen and I wondered what I had done to my uncle to treat me in this manner..

As I ran still, my feet felt lighter unconscious of the incoming vehicle. It hit me and I fell steadily to the ground with my eyes closed.
