Chapter 56
[Edward’s P.OV.]
When I was done with some temporary matters, I found my way back to Rose at the dinner party. She and Jane were standing in front of a round table and I quickly realized that it was Emily’s table where she sat with a few of her best friends, and Emily’s expression looked terrible right now.
“Rose, what happened?” I just wanted to make sure that my mate didn’t suffer any losses thanks to Emily.
“Nothing much. I was just chatting with these ladies. They were looking forward to my ceremony.”
I kissed Rose in front of Emily. Her previous behavior had annoyed me, and I had yet to find a suitable reason to punish or expel her. After all, her father had coincidentally saved my grandfather’s life in the past and the former had been given the privilege of clan merit. But that didn’t mean that I wouldn’t
do anything bad to her, especially if she mistreated my Rose.
By the end of the dinner, the area in front of the platform outside the castle was already packed with members of the pack. Elder Brennan took his position as the one to preside over the ceremony for my mate, Luna. When everything was ready, he announced the start of the ceremony and the band began
to play.
Elder Brennan circled the platform before loudly saying to the crowd, “Members of Sunset Pack, I now invite Luna Rose, your undisputed Luna. You are here today to witness Luna’s coronation and to show her respect, support, and obedience. Do you agree?”
“We do!”
Then, my mate went up on stage. Her beauty shone like a beautiful light in the dark night. She took the werewolf codex that Brennan handed her and recited her oath.
“Thereby solemnly swear that I will be Luna of Sunset Pack to assist Alpha Edward in the administration of the laws and customs of Sunset Pack. I will use all of my power to enforce the laws and customs of the pack justly. I will do all I can to maintain the discipline and peace of the pack and to protect it
from any harm, internally or externally. I will always live under the guidance of the moon goddess and let justice and mercy prevail in Sunset Pack.”
Then my love lowered her head as Elder Brennan placed the Luna Crown made of pure gold and adorned with lilies made of pearl and diamond on her. When it was over, I went up on stage as Rose knelt to me and swore her fealty. Although I had suggested to cut this part out of the ceremony because I
didn’t think it was necessary, Elder Brennan insisted on keeping it, saying that it was a tradition of a werewolf pack.
“T, Luna of Sunset Pack and your vassals, worship you without limit. I pledge my loyalty to you, to stand by you through life and death, and to renounce worldly desires. May the moon goddess bless us.”
Thelped Rose up as Brennan stepped forward again and took out a carved knife embedded with emeralds. He gently cut each of Rose’s and my fingers, letting our blood flow into the solemn altar in front of us.
[Rose’s P.O.V.]
Thankfully, I successfully completed all the procedures without any mistakes. When the blood from Edward’s and my fingers slowly dripped into the altar, I almost let out a sigh of relief.
suddenly, I felt a surge of energy inside me, as if it had penetrated my entire body, before it burst through and spread out in all directions. It was only for a moment, but I felt its presence solidly. It was very powerful.
Before I could think, a voice entered my ear.

“‘Thope Rose will have sex with me tonight.
Iwas very surprised, who would be so bold and disrespectful at this grand ceremony? But the next second I froze, because I found that the voice came from Edward? How could he say such inappropriate things during such an occasion. I stared at him in puzzlement and surprise, but he looked innocent.
‘Ican’t go back until tomorrow, I wonder if my newborn granddaughter misses her grandfather?
Theard another voice. It was Brennan’s. I was stunned. What was happening?
‘Diana hasn’t called me back in half an hour. What is she doing”
“Luna’s dress is so beautiful. I wish I had one too…”
‘D*mn, | forgot to turn off the induction cooker before I left. I hope it doesn’t set my house on fire.
suddenly, a flood of voices from all directions drowned my mind. But when I looked around me, everyone was just staring at me and Edward. No one was talking.
Oh my God, is this….?
