AWAKENING LUNA: DARKNESS HOLDING THE LIGHT BY MAJIE CHAPTER 2

CHAPTER TWO

ADELIAI stood up and cleaned myself up. Then, I rummaged through the debris where my clothes

were supposed to be and managed to find a decent black shirt and a pair of jeans. The jeans had some

cut on it, but after sewing some part of it, it looked decent enough to wear them.After half an hour, I

was ready to go out.‘Now, I have to go and find him,’ I thought to myself as I headed out to the pack

hall.The territory was bustling. All the wolves came over to give respect to the prince. I walked towards

the hall where the other wolves were gathered. I looked at the wolves who were wearing some formal

attire and looked down at my t-shirt and pair of jeans. Unsurprisingly, I received some hard stares.I

ignored them. After all, they were not the reason why I came over here.When I was about to enter the

hall, however, two of the warriors who were guarding the entrance prevented me from entering.I blinked

my eyes and looked at them. “Excuse me, I need to enter the hall,” I respectfully told the warriors.

However, they only looked at me with condensing eyes.“You can’t enter,” one of them told me.“The

alpha ordered for everyone to gather. Why can’t I enter?” I asked them.Instead of answering me, I

heard one of them snigger before saying, “The Alpha indeed ordered for all the wolves to attend the

gathering. But you are too weak… almost like a human. I don’t think the Alpha meant to include

you.”The Alpha’s orders were absolute. More than that, if I were caught failing to greet the prince, I

would be heavily punished for blatantly disrespecting a royalty. I narrowed my eyes on the

warriors.They were aware of that rule. And they were intentionally doing it to bring me

trouble.‘Nevermind… in my vision, ‘he’ will be there when that thing happens. I can just wait at the

forest beside the pack house and wait for him,’ I decided before decisively walking to the forest

connected to the pack house, ignoring the warriors who looked surprised at my action.Fresh air blew

on my face, making me feel more comfortable. Inside of me, I felt that my wolf was feeling excited.‘Do

you like it, Ylva? I’m sorry. Because of our situation, we couldn’t go out more,’ I sighed as I looked at

the beautiful night sky.The visions that I was seeing made a great impact on my life. I stopped going

out and calculated my every move. Ever since I started shifting, I have not gone out with my wolf for a

run.‘These are things we have to do, Ylva. Because in this lifetime, I will make sure that no one will

harm you. And everyone who will try to hurt you will pay,’ I told her as a sharp glint appeared on my

eyes.Suddenly, my nose caught the most beautiful scent. I was almost immediately intoxicated. My

heart immediately started to beat erratically, and my eyes widened with alertness.‘This smell… Ylva…’ I

called for my wolft , alarmed. Unsurprisingly, she also caught a whiff of that smell and was howling both

in happiness and melancholy.‘It’s him… isn’t it?’ I thought to myself.‘Alec…’‘… our mate.’Without any

warning, the smell of our mate became more and more pronounced… until it became so close to us. I

started panicking.‘Oh no. It seems like he caught our scent and is coming near us!’Immediately, I

grabbed my small bag and hurriedly took out a brown box. I opened it and I saw a purple flower inside.

Without wasting any moment, I clutched on the flower and held it on my chest as I hid behind a huge

tree.A few seconds later, I saw Alec’s figure appear near the tree where I was. Like in my vision, he

looked tall and handsome. He had brown hair that reached until his shoulder and eyes that were like

amethyst. My eyes were instantly glued to him.‘Mate!’ My mind screamed. I bit my lower lip and forced

myself to stay quiet. At the same time, my wolf quivered as if she was about to come out.‘No, Ylva.

Although he is our mate….…he is not the one for us,’ I thought as my eyes slowly filled with tears.How

I wished that my visions were wrong.How I wished that I could run into Alec’s arms and hold him.How I

wished I could put my head on his chest and hear the beating of his heart.‘Happily being with him for a

few years… will it be enough to compensate him for killing me?’ I thought as I stared at his

face.However, when I felt my wolf inside of me, my heart was instantly filled with anger.‘No,’ I thought.

‘Not in this lifetime. I will never let him hurt me and Ylva,’ I decided with my hands fisted like stones.At

that moment, Alec looked into my direction as if he noticed something and started approaching me. My

heart immediately beat like crazy.‘Please work… please work!’ I panicked as I held the flower with both

hands.Fortunately, after a few seconds, Alec stopped approaching me as if someone called him. Then,

shortly, I felt him walking away.I sighed in relief and stared at the flower that was almost This belongs to .

crushed.Zanita, the purple flower, could mask one’s scent for a short time. It was a precious thing that I

tried so hard to get. And now, it has become trash with only one use.‘At least, it saved me,’ I took a

sigh. ‘Alec didn’t see me before I found him,’ I thought before looking at the direction Alec went.At that

moment, my heart was feeling a kind of sadness that I could not describe. I knew that seeing him the

first time would be hard. However, I never imagined it would be this. I felt like my heart was slowly

being torn apart and being shattered.It was at this moment when I heard a low chuckle before a low

and mysterious voice said, “What’s this? An omega who is hiding from her mate who happens to be her

alpha.”“Interesting.”
