Chapter 0321 Lila’s POV I stared at Dee with shock; she had seen the mark so quickly. I didn’t even realize she was standing there.
Soon, murmurs erupted from around the dining room, and everyone was excitedly chirping.
“Did the Alpha mark her??” “Had he finally found his mate?!” “I knew something was going on with them!!!” My face reddened instantly, and I looked up at Enzo who was only grinning, trying not to laugh.
He found this amusing.
; Soon, Ethan appeared beside him with a bright smile, patting him on the back of the shoulder.
“Does this mean we have a new Luna?” Ethan asked the question that everyone was wondering.
Enzo stared down at me, meeting my eyes briefly before turning to the rest of his pack.
| “As much as I want to marry her right now, I made a promise that I would allow her to become ready on her own terms. As most of you know she is a student. She’s starting her second year tomorrow. Once she is ready, I'm hoping to officially marry her and make her the Luna of this pack. Until then, I expect you to still treat her with the same respect you would a Luna.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt: The pack continued their i | murmurs. Except for a few she-wolves, | including the ones that said hi to Enzo earlier.
They were standing off to the side with their arms folded across their chests and giving me the death glare.
I’ knew they were probably going to be a problem for me later and my stomach tightened. I didn’t want any issues with anyone in Enzo’s pack. But it seems to be unavoidable.
Enzo didn’t notice them though. He wrapped an arm around my shoulder and pulled me close to him.
“I'would also expect that this information doesn’t leave this pack. No outsiders should hear about this from anyone other than my mate and me.”
~ “of course, Alpha,” someone from across the dining room said with a bright smile. He wore a gamma. ___ uniform with the Calypso pack symbol on his chest. “And might I be the first to say congratulations.” Everybody began to cheer and coo their congratulations.
Well, most everyone.
Those she-wolves continued to glare at me. I tried my best to ignore them.
Dee hugged us both with tears in her eyes.
“Oh, my goddess. I can’t believe this,” she cooed.
“I’m happy for you, Brother,” Ethan said, shaking his hand. He turned to me and reached his hand out for me to
take.
I took it right away and he brought it to his mouth and bowed his head to me, making my face flare up. I heard a low growl from Enzo’s throat, and I knew he didn’t like another man touching me.
“Congratulations, future Luna,” Ethan said, lifting his gaze to mine.
Enzo grabbed my hand and pulled it out of the grasp of Ethan.
“Careful, Beta Ethan,” Enzo growled in alow tone.
Ethan laughed.
“Easy there, big guy. I'm just teasing. I really am happy for you both though.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt’s about time you decided to take a mate. With your age, it was getting kind of sad,” Ethan continued to laugh.
“You're one to talk,” Enzo said, a sly grin on his face. “Might I remind you that you are unmated as well?” Ethan shrugged.
“I’m not an Alpha. It doesn’t matter when I find my mate.” “Well, in the meantime, keep your hands off mine,” Enzo warned.
But they both laughed, so I knew they were teasing.
I turned to the buffet table while the two continued talking and I finished fixing my plate. Dee was watching me with a pleased smile on her face.
“You must be so happy,” she breathed; she spoke low so Enzo couldn’t hear.
) I couldn’t help but smile in return.
“It’s surreal,” I said with my face warming. “I never thought this day would come.” “I was beginning to doubt he would ever come around as well,” she chuckled. “But now that you are marked, will you be moving in?” Moving in? I hadn’t even thought about that.
“We didn’t talk about it,” I told her, frowning. “I’m still in school. I guess it would only be a 30-minute commute.
But my roommates would be very upset.” “I’m sure they would understand,” she said with a frown. “A mate bond is very important. You should be near one another all the time. At least in the
beginning.” My heart squeezed painfully in my chest. I looked at Enzo who was still talking with Ethan. He told me we could take things slow, but maybe he just meant marriage. Did he really expect me to abandon my friends to move in here?
