Chapter 84

LAYLA

When we return home, Daphné is still with Ayla. She rushes towards me as soon as her eyes meet mine and engulfs me in a hug.

“Levi told me everything. You shifted?” She mumbles in my neck.

,

“I did.” My throat feels heavy.

It still feels surreal.

“I am so happy for you, Lulu. I knew it! I knew you were just a late bloomer.” She whispers in her moist voice.

Realizing that she is crying, I pat her back and close my eyes. Everything I thought was impossible has come true.

“Wait.” She says all of a sudden and pulls back, her gaze moving towards my neck.

Her brows shoot to her forehead, as she points towards the mark on my

neck.

Did you—”

LE

“Yes.” My cheeks warm up as I nod.

She squeals, pulling me in her arms again. I smile widely at her excitement and glance towards Ayla who is already in her Daddy’s arms, whispering something in his ears.

“Yes, Princess.” He whispers to her and nods.

Hove you, Daddy. ” She chimes, wrapping her arms around his neck.

My heart fills with adoration again. He looks my way, a genuine smile gracing his lips.

Daphne pulls away.” This calls for a party! Double celebration actually!

This calls for a Luna ceremony. “Alex says.

“Yes, Alpha!” Daphne jumps excitedly and faces him. ” can we arrange it tonight if that’s okay? I don’t think you should wait anymore, Alpha.

Alex nods, his dark gaze on me. “I can’t wait. Make the arrangements.

My heart misses a beat but I stay silent. I can’t wait either. Now that I am marked, I want to become his Luna and learn to match his pace in life.

With slow steps, I approach Alex and Ayla and wrap my arms around both. Alex pulls me closer, removing the little space left between us.

Family photo!” Daphne yells.

I glance at her to find her clicking pictures on her phone. Giggling, I tilt towards her and strike a pose so all three of us can be seen in the photo,

She rushes over after she is done and shows me the image. Alex and I stand side by side while he carries Ayla. What grabs my attention is the happiness in our eyes and the big smiles on our faces.

Now, it finally feels like a family photo.

Chapter 84

Daphne is quick with the arrangements. By the time Levi returns with the warriors, everything is set in the backyard.

The pack members gather in the packhouse, dressed in suits and party dresses. I, too wear a sparkly blue dress that I found in my room with a note from Alex.

A lovely dress for my Mio Tesoro,

After getting ready, I go to pick up Ayla but find that Daphne has already gotten her ready and taken her to the party downstairs.

This leaves me alone to walk out. My brows furrow as I search for Alex but find him nowhere. Such an important night and he’s been missing since forever.

Pouting, I go down to the backyard and approach Daphne who is dragging Ayla with her. Slowly, my eyes drift through the space, searching for Seraphina, David, or their son. To my relief, they are not there.

Who are you looking for?” Daphne asks as soon as I stop beside her.

I wonder what happened with the G m m a and his family. “I mumble.

“Alpha exiled them. They left hours ago.” She informs me and twirls Ayla who shows me her dress excitedly.

Mommy! How do I look?” She asks.

She is wearing a matching blue sparkly gown. My heart warms at the sight. Leaning down, I kiss her cheek.

“You look like a Princess, Baby.”

“I do? ” Her eyes sparkle innocently, but I can sense that the fear has not completely left her.

I touch my Baby’s cheek and nod. “You are Mommy and Daddy’s Princess.”

“I want to ashk Daddy too. Where ish he, Mommy?” She inquires, looking around.

Daddy is-

I am interrupted by Alex’s voice. I lean back and look towards the center of the backyard. He is standing there, his eyes fixed on me.

“When I first met her, I didn’t know she would become such an important presence in my life. I thought she was weak and was not suitable to be my life partner. But she proved me wrong. She showed me that she is brave, kind, and strong. I didn’t fall in love with her overnight. It took a long time. It took

me a lot of heartache to finally understand that I couldn’t live without her. That’s why today, you get your Luna. Luna Layla Alvaral

To my surprise, the pack members hoot eagerly. Their eyes focus on me, making me swallow

Come to me, Layla. “Alex lifts his hands towards me.

Go. Daphne gives me a push, making me stumble forward.

I look around, taking in the happy faces. I don’t know all of them, but it seems like they know me and they don’t find me troublesome like I thought.

Nervously, I stroll towards Alex and take his hand in mine. When our fingers touch, a wave of sparks travels down my arm.

With a firm hold on me, Alex tugs me to his chest/His eyes stare into mine deeply, conveying his love and admiration.

You look beautiful tonight.” He whispers huskily.

The crowd members cheer again. My face turns red.

*You are right. Alpha. Luna is beautifull We know you can’t wait to make her yours. One of the members shouts and more chees killa

Everyone knows my secret now. “Alex rolls his eyes playfully.

Unconsciously, a sheepish grin stretches across my lips. I place my hand on his chest, feeling the beat of his heart.

Alex’s eyes soften on me.

are you ready for it, Mio Tesoro?”

My heart s k i p s a beat.” Always.”

Alex takes a step back. Levi comes up from behind him and hands him a knife. I gulp, eyeing the sharp blade before looking into his reassuring eyes.

Just a small cut. “Alex whispers, cutting his palm.

He grabs my palm and pierces it with the knife. I wince, but the next moment, his fingers intertwine with mine. Our blood mingles, flowing down my wrist and his fingers.

The sparks become more powerful and a hundred voices filter through my mind, making me gasp. Right away, Alex dives in and claims my lips, taking away the pain that follows with his touch alone.

Something feels free in my chest. The pain dulls down, leaving a satisfying ache behind and the bond that I can feel forming inside my head.

I can hear the pack members cheering us on again. They chant my name with his, calling me their Luna and wishing me a happy life.

But I can’t take my eyes off the man in front of me. He is beautiful and he fulfilled his promise. He made me so happy that I don’t know where to store all

this happiness now.

Dance with me. “Alex whispers, keeping our hands intertwined.

To my surprise, my palm doesn’t hurt. It feels like the wound healed. With my wolf’s appearance, my abilities seem to be working now.

Soft music plays in the background as Alex pulls me into his arms and sways me to the romantic beat. Under the vast sky and among the pack members and my loved ones, I feel content. Everything inside me is thriving on this newfound happiness.

My lips hurt from smiling. My chest aches with the effort to hold all this love inside. My hands tremble in his warm palms.

And he holds me, sways me, loves me—with his eyes, with his words, with his actions, with his touch, with everything he has.

While swaying in his arms, I look up at the sky. All my prayers have been answered. My heart feels full. Tears well in my eyes as I lower my gaze to his eyes and smile again.

“I love you, Alex.” I whisper.

His forehead presses into mine as he smiles freely. “I love you more, and I will love you more every day.

For the first time, I do not doubt someone’s love for me. My pain has paid off, I haven’t failed in this life.

Mommy! Daddy! ” Ayla comes running and clings to her Daddy’s leg.

Like her best Daddy, he releases me instantly and picks her in his arms. She wraps her arm around my neck and pulls me in towards them.

“I love you too, Mommy and Daddy.” She chimes/

“This calls for a family photo!” Daphne comes yelling again.

You did this just this morning, “I remind her but still turn to face her phone’s camera.

“One picture with us too!” Levi announces.

Yes. “Daphne hands the phone to another pack member and both of them rush to our side.

In one frame, together, we take a lot of pictures that night. Family—I have it now and I have family photos.

As the night grows warmer and my smile grows wider, my eyes meet Alex’s soft gaze again. And suddenly, everything feels bright.

The world is not dark anymore. It’s silver—like his beautiful eyes. And it will remain that day forever. Because he is with me.
