Chapter 29
“Wait, but you are my rightful Luna!” He replied panicked, she was thinking about rejecting him.
Hearing him, everyone in the hallway gasped. The only ones who were not surprised, were Brianna
and her mother.
“What do you mean rightful Luna?” Asked his father confused.
“Father she is my mate!” He hurriedly replied, feeling wronged.
“What? You said Brianna was your mate. How come it is Celia now?” Richard shouted with a harsh tone.
“I thought so because Brianna smelt like Celia, but I did not feel the mate pull. Brianna said she had not shifted until now, so I thought it was because of this reason that I could not feel the mate pull towards her yet. But just now when I met Celia, I realized she is my true mate.” Rayan immediately explained, trying to excuse himself.
“You, you! Why did you not ask me? How can you believe such a reason? Even if Brianna would not have shifted yet, you should have seen it in her eyes, you should have felt the mate pull regardless.” Richard replied, annoyed with his stupid son.
“And what do you mean Brianna did not shift yet? She shifted at the beginning of this year.” Stated Daniel confused. His big sister should have been the Luna, not Brianna?! Well, he always knew that girl had not even one Luna bone in her body.
It finally clicked, only now Rayan understood her panicked expression at the ball, the reason he did not feel the mate pull, everything fitted, he had been deceived.
Celia sighed. She was not even upset anymore. It seemed her sister actually did her a favor, if she had seen Rayan before, it would have been impossible to become a watcher.
The only problem that remained was the fact that her heart ached involuntarily, and Crescent kept howling in pain since she saw her mate. But she knew her wolf, she would have never accepted someone that had fooled around with other women, and definitely not someone that impregnated
her sister.
Since he arrived in the pack’s territory, she kept having phantom pains almost every night, even before he met her sister at the ball. Who would ever want such a mate?
three of them would be alright together, just as always one person two wolves. Waning
surfaced from deep within her mind for some time already, and had protectively wrapped around
Crescent with her body, which was quite easy as the white wolf was much bigger than Crescent. In her warm embrace, the latter settled down.

Rayan looked angry at Brianna, he could have shredded her to pieces if he could. She was the cause of all these problems.
His look devoid of any love made the latter cower behind her mother. Since she had met Rayan until now, this was the first time she had felt such a killing intent from him. The first time he had showed such a disgusted face towards her. She was already carrying his pup, why would Celia still matter to him now?
“Alpha Rayan, please quell your anger. Brianna is frail right now.” Immediately intervened her mother, trying to defuse his rage. All their plans had gone awry, but they still had an unexpected advantage. The pup that was growing in Brianna’s womb was the rightful heir to this pack. He had to accept the reality either way. But still, an alpha’s rage was dangerous, in a moment of anger he could hurt Brianna.
“She is frail? She was the one who kept me from my true mate!” He shouted erratic. His anger kept rising, and his aura leaked uncontrollably making them submit to him. Even the people who were inside the ballroom across the hallway felt his changed mood, though they did not dare exit, as he had ordered everyone to stay inside.
The only ones who were not showing their neck in submission were his father and Celia. Her aloof stance had not changed from the beginning until now. His aura was not even on par with the lowest ranked member of her pack, and that was putting it lightly.
“Sister, please tell him, you did not want a mate. Your dream has always been to be a watcher. That is why you went away immediately after the ball.” Her sister pleaded, the tone of her voice was small and humble, totally different from before.
She had thought that since they had already mated and she was carrying his pup, Rayan would ignore and reject her sister, even if she was his rightful mate. Since their childhood until now, her aloof sister was always ignored by everyone, she could never compare to her. That was why she had dared deceive Rayan at the ball. When he saw her and came towards her, her heart pounded and she felt proud of herself, of course she was his Luna.
She had no idea exactly what the mate pull implied, she only knew that his looks and position only fitted someone like her. But her confidence waned when he asked her at that time why she smelt ike his mate, though only subtly.
She did not understand what he meant, until he said the scent got stronger, and that was when she saw her sister standing at the entrance. She had taken her dress and there was not enough time to wash it, even though her sister had tried it on before, so Celia’s scent was all over the dress.
