Longing For My Rejected Luna

*****Erika's POV******

I, Jace Hart, Alpha of the Thunderclaw pack, hereby accept you, Katerina

Greywood as my mate." Jace's voice echoed in the entire hall as he said the vows with Kat.

After his coronation, the mating ceremony took place. Me, Father, Paula, Gage, and Alex sat at the sides while we all applauded them in unison.

"Today, before the goddess of the moon, I proclaim you both as fated mates." The elder in charge said out loud and cheers filled the entire venue. At long last, Kat and Jace were mated and it was time to take over their pack as Alpha and Luna of

the pack.

Everyone stood up to their feet to congratulate them on their union and their positions in Fangoria.

I and Paula went forward to Kat's side and pulled her in for a group hug, though Paula's belly wasn't that big yet, the bump was still very visible.

"Congratulations, girl. You're finally mated!" Paula cheered excitedly as Kat beamed at us.noveldrama

"It's the best feeling ever!" She replied, chuckling with her hands over her lips.

"It sure is." I nodded, confirming her words. Getting mated was a very wonderful feeling, but to someone who reciprocated the love you had for them.

I hugged Kat again, letting her know that I was genuinely happy for her.

"I'll address you by your title from today. Luna Katerina." I said teasingly and a grin appeared on her face.

"Sounds kind of off, but alright. Luna Kat would sound better."

We rolled our eyes at her and nodded after all.

"I'll greet Jace now," I said and excused myself from them.

I walked over to Jace who was standing with Father as they all congratulated him together.

"Alpha Jace," I said from behind him and they all turned to look at me.

A smile appeared on Jace's face as he pulled me in for a bear hug.

"You witch." He chuckled as he ruffled my hair. I hit his hand away, glaring at him

as everyone laughed at me from behind me.

I shot them death glares, silencing them in an instant.

"Rika, don't be that way." Jace soothed, rubbing my arm and I pouted.

"Eww." He laughed, "You look so weird."

Dad came forward to stand before us and I reached out to hug him. A smile made its way to my face as I pulled away from the hug.

"Now Jace is an Alpha." He said and I smiled, turning to look at Jace.

"Yes, he deserves it. But you guys still have a lot of explaining to do about how he isn't a blackwood."

"We already told you." Jace frowned.

"I didn't get it the first time." I rolled my eyes, folding my hands to my chest.

The dress I had on was the same one the manager of that store had asked me to advertise. So far, I have gotten so many compliments and people who seemed interested in the dress.

A lot of people had already taken pictures of me tonight.

"You look amazing tonight." I suddenly heard the familiar deep voice that gave me tingles recently.

I turned to see Alex standing tall with a small smile on his face as he looked me up and down, taking in the sight of my dress.

He didn't look bad either, his black suit made me stand out in the crowd as other males present dressed in either brown or blue suits.

He looked so alluring and handsome with his hair styled to the back, gelled away from his face.

"You too." I retorted, hiding my smile by casting my gaze lower.

Jace nudged me and I glared at him.

"Don't fucking touch me." I hissed, stepping aside from him.

Jace chuckled and reached out a hand to receive Alex's hand for a handshake.

"Welcome once again, Alpha Alexander." He said and Alex nodded in gratitude.

"I'll leave

you both to discuss while greet the guests." He said and

turned

to walk out, leaving meel

alone with Alex.

Now left alone with him, he cleared his throat awkwardly. Well, the atmosphere was awkward.

"Want to have a drink?" I asked before he could even say a word and I saw the confusion flash in his eyes.

"Sure." He accepted and we walked towards the bar counter.

"Don't worry about what people say, we're both Alphas and we do whatever we want to do," I assured him as he helped me take a seat on the stool.

He smirked, "I don't care about what people say." He replied with a small smile again.

Once we were seated, he called for the bartender and he walked up to us, his gaze lowered in respect.

"Greetings Alphas." He said and Alex turned to me.

"What do you want?"

I rested a hand on the counter and

"Anything strong." I blurted out and saw Alex raise a brow.

"Let's just unwind." I shrugged, a smile on my face.

Alex shook his head in amusement and turned to the bartender.

"You heard the pretty lady, give us something strong." The bartender nodded and

walked off to get what we wanted.

The bartender returned with the drinks and handed them over to us.

Now in our hands, we downed the drinks.

This was the perfect drink for werewolves.

I winced at the hotness while Alex still kept on a straight face.

I squinted at him and tried to imitate him.

I had no time, I felt tipsy.

I felt light-headed and I wanted to sleep.

But in all, I felt hot, wanting to pull my clothes off.

It felt so hot in the room and I wanted to just take it off.

"Cindy, what's going on?" I managed to ask and Cindy howled.

"We're in heat!."
