Chapter 55 - The Argument at the Dinner

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

[Rose’s P.O.V.]

I followed Edward down the stairs to the castle hall for the dinner before the ceremony. Eating during events such as these usually happened in the dining hall. But there were too many people and the dining hall didn’t seem to have enough space to fit them all. So Alpha Leon relocated the dining area to

the castle hall. It was also the first time I saw so many werewolves in the castle. When they saw us arrive, they stood up and showed their respect.

Edward and I had a simple meal before he brought me to each table to do our round of greetings. I saw Lily come back from school to attend my Luna ceremony, but otherwise, most of the people here were unfamiliar faces. The only thing I knew about them was that they were the representatives of every

werewolf family in the pack. There were men and women as well as the old and young. I simply kept smiling at them as a sign of friendliness while I greeted them.

As we were nearing the end of our round of greetings, Edward was suddenly called away by Elder Brennan. I was told to simply greet the remaining tables and I obediently agreed.

But when I went to one of the remaining tables, it seemed that things were not so simple anymore. I noticed some unfriendly looks as I walked up to them, as if they wanted to shoot me with their eyes. Eventually, I realized why – two among them were the women who had provoked me the last time,

Emily and Jones. The rest of the people at the table were girls too and they all seemed to have banded together.

“Good evening, everyone. Thank you for coming to my Luna ceremony.” Although I had a feeling that my stop at this table would not go well, I still maintained my smile.

“Look who it is, a pheasant who’s trying to turn into a phoenix,” said one of them and the rest started laughing.

“Emily, I hope that we can get along amicably and peacefully in the future.” I still maintained my smile. I didn’t want to cause any trouble during my Luna ceremony.

“But the question is are you worthy? Don’t think that I don’t know about your dirty history in New Moon Pack.”

“Oh? What do you know?”

“You’re a f*cking wh*re who’s been ridden by ten thousand people, that’s what! Do you think that you can just take on the position of Luna just because you’ve seduced Alpha? Dream on!”

“So you plan to replace me?”

“Replace? The position of Luna has always been mine! Take my advice and get out of our pack as soon as you can. They should have just beaten you to death while you were still in New Moon Pack. Ugh.”

They started laughing again, although I didn’t understand what was so funny. Suddenly, | felt something wanting to burst out of my body, and it was obviously not from Charlotte. As I tried to suppress it, a large portion of my attention had been diverted from the table of the giggling bunch.

“This b*tch must be at a loss for words. She must think she deserves to die too.”

“Tknow, right? I don’t know where this b*tch came from, but I reckon the only way she managed to come this far is through her filthy vagina.”

Ugh, the words that came out of their mouths were only making whatever that’s trying to burst out of my body fluctuate greatly. Then, I felt a hand on my shoulder.

“Why can’t you b*tches spit out ivory from your mouths? You know what, before you do that, please go take a piss and have a good look at yourselves. If Alpha finds out that you’ve offended Luna, I’ll be delighted to see your miserable endings. I’m even looking forward to bringing flowers to your graves.”

It was Jane. I was grateful for her timely arrival as I was able to properly focus on competing with the energy in my body. My rationality eventually regained the upper hand.

“Alpha was only momentarily bewitched by this b*tch of a slave! She will never become our pack’s Luna!”

While everyone else had shut up due to Jane’s words, Emily still stubbornly decided to keep going. I was starting to somewhat admire her persistence.

“Emily, challenge me if you will, but you look like a pitiful sour chicken right now. You’ve already wasted too much of my time. Please enjoy my Luna ceremony.”

I tried not to say any profanities. But when she heard me say that she was a sour chicken, her facial features wrinkled in anger and disbelief.

“Rose, what happened?”

At that moment, my Popeye came to my side.

“Nothing much. I was just chatting with these ladies. They were looking forward to my ceremony.”

Edward put his arm around my waist and kissed my forehead. I could feel Emily going crazy from jealousy.
