Chapter Twenty-Four: Hannah's Celebratory Dinner (Part Three)
Friday Night
Ezekiel's POV:
I smelt my pretty little Luna before I even saw her. From the look of it, so could my little brothers.
We had not given our Luna enough time these past few days with the Lycan Kings and Supreme Alpha twins coming in for the Alpha ceremony. The twins weren't even the problem, since my brothers and I had attended University and Alpha training with them: Isaiah and Josiah Stark. We were pretty close and could even be called best friends.
Since after their pack, the Supreme Diamond Pack, Dark Storm Pack was the largest. It was the Lycan Kings that we had to worry about. Not finding their mate for almost fifteen years was taking a toll on their beasts, so the triplets had become a pain in the ass and being our kings, we couldn't piss them off.
With all that added pressure, the ceremony on Sunday and the triplets and twins arriving tomorrow, we had sidelined our Luna entirely. She probably thought we were avoiding her. I didn't want her to doubt our commitment since we had made fantastic progress in our relationship lately.
Hopefully, tonight we could all get some time with her. Waking up without her beside us in the morning had pissed my wolf, Ace, the f**k off. The sneaky little vixen had slipped right out without waking us up.
My brothers and their wolves were sailing the same boat as me in the morning. We loved taking our Luna to school. The little bit of time we got with her brought the smallest flutters to my heart.
What have I been doing all this time without her?
She was amazing!
Our perfect little Luna.
I was broken out of my thoughts when her tuberoses and rose scent became more assertive.
I saw her before she spotted us, and I was stunned;
she was more beautiful than the Goddess Aphrodite in the lilac dress we had gifted her, with her hair intuitively made up on top of her head with minimal makeup. Although, not like she needed any, she was gorgeous without it.
Zeke and Sam noticed her back in Saks, glimpsing at the dress from time to time but never asked for it.
It had a plunging back with a good amount of cleavage showing, which Azreal and I weren't that comfortable with. She wasn't mated or marked yet, and the thought of these adolescent pups around our gorgeous mate was pissing me the f**k off, but with the way my little bros described her, the twinkle in her eye for the dress, we had to yield to it. At least we would be around to deter any unwanted attention from our Luna.
Oh, Selene, thank you!
The ferocious eldest Alpha among the infamous quadruplet Alphas was putty in a five-foot-two-inch she-wolf's hands.
Azrael's POV:
I could feel my knees weaken the moment I saw the love of my life. She was breathtaking. The dress we had gifted her hugged in all the right spots, and the fantastic view of her cleavage was getting me hard as stone.
I had missed my love so much over these past two days. We had been getting along so well. Seeing her, touching her and tasting that sinful mouth of hers had become a need of not only mine, but I'm sure my brothers as well.
Her friends surrounded her, and that pup she used to date, Eli, was there. I held back a growl, I didn't want her to get uneasy, but just the thought of him touching what was mine and my brothers had me waging war with my wolf to beat his puny ass.
Feeling the heat of our stare, my love turned and saw us. You could hear the hitch in her breath as she sized all four of us from head to toe.
Mom had always liked us dressing alike. We didn't know if our Luna would like that, but I think we were good from the flushed cheeks and gawking.
We all walked up to her. Seeing us coming closer, all her guy friends squirmed from the heat of our stares and went off to find a table. Her girlfriends gave her smirks, while Hannah made a crude gesture as she left with the others.
"Love, you look breathtaking," I said, as I leaned down and kissed her on the side of the lips. I didn't want to mess up my Luna's makeup, even though everything told me to grab her by the back of the neck and pull on those beautiful silvery locks as I kissed her breathless.
Maybe when we get to the room later tonight.
My brothers followed suit, complimenting her and giving her kisses on either her cheek or marking spots.
I could smell her getting wet for us. Her body was ready to be mated. Her soul felt the bond even if it hadn't been fully established. Saturday couldn't come fast enough, so we could finally claim our Luna.
Zeke's POV:
Angel looked like a million bucks. My angel deserved every luxury in the world. The dress we had gotten her looked as if it was custom-made for her, and the best part was that she had chosen it even though she didn't tell us.
With all the progress we were making, I hoped that she would be comfortable enough to let us know what she liked so we could spoil her like the queen she was to us.
Even though Sam and I had to convince our older brothers to let her wear the dress, since it gave little to the imagination, I regretted my decision.
She looked ethereal, and even though we all crowded her, the guys kept looking at her. They thought they were discreet while checking her out, but were not at all. Their repulsive arousal could be smelt, and with the way my brothers were inching closer to her and touching her in front of everyone, they had noticed as well.
"Angel, as much of a goddess as you look you right now, you have to stay close to us the entire time," I said.
"That's right, baby. I don't want to be throwing unmated males in the dungeon and piss Hannah and mom off,” said Sam.
My angel blushed.
Goddess, she was adorable.
How'd we get so lucky?
Sam's POV:
"You look ravishing, baby. Good enough to eat,” I whispered in my baby's ear, nipping her earlobe.
She looked up at me with hooded eyes, and I flashed her my black ones. I heard her breath hitch. The smell of her arousal was more potent now.
Snaking my arm around her waist from the right, Azreal took her hand from the left and we ushered her to the Alpha table in the front.
No way in hell was my baby leaving my side.
I didn't want to deal with mom or Hannah if I needed to beat the crap out of a guy, so better safe than sorry to keep my baby next to me.
Emerald's POV:
The quads couldn't seem to keep their hands off me.
How I missed their touch.
They kept on complimenting me. Honestly, I thought they were exaggerating at one point, but the sincerity in their eyes told me otherwise.
They ushered me to the Alpha table as Sam had a tight grip on my waist and Azreal on my hand. They were acting as if I would run away. As we reached the table, I was seated between Zeke and Ezekiel.
"Um, I wanted to thank you for the dress. You guys didn't need to,” I said, pulling a strand of hair behind my ear as I looked down.
Their intense stares and the flashes of their black eyes had me clenching my thighs. I didn't need to let the whole ballroom know that I was a leaking faucet around them.
"No worries, little Luna. The dress was made for you,” gushed Ezekiel.
I bit my cheek from the inside, not wanting the megawatt smile to come out.
"You should thank Sam and Zeke, they were proactive in getting you the dress. My love, as captivating as you look, we would rather keep your delicate milky skin to ourselves,” said Azreal from the side.
I looked at Sam and Zeke, giving them a small smile and thanking them.
I gulped the champagne given to me to provide me with some courage since their lustful gazes weren't stopping.
Oh Goddess, make them stop!
Trying to change their thoughts, I said,
"How is the preparation going for the Alpha ceremony? You all have been very busy. I thought you forgot about me,” I joked chuckling at the end.
"We could never forget you, baby. You're too sexy for that,” said Sam.
"We apologize, Luna. Not sure if you know, but the triplet Lycan Kings and the future twin Supreme Alphas will be arriving tomorrow. We had to make sure everything is in order,” explained Ezekiel.
"Oh no, I understand. It's just um, ah, I missed you all,” I said, whispering at the end.
I looked up and saw all the quads grinning down at me. They nuzzled me, pecked my lips, and put me back on my seat.
Goddess, everyone was staring.
I could feel daggers flying from the she-wolves around me.
But for the first time, I wasn't all that uncomfortable. Yes, it felt weird being in the spotlight, but the more time I spent around the quads, the more I stopped caring about everyone else.
Wanting to keep the conservation going, I asked,
"So why are the Lycan Kings coming and are the twin Supreme Alphas like royalty?" I was inquisitive. I knew the lycans ruled over us, and since they were in a different multiverse, the Supreme Alpha family looked over wolf country.
Azreal smiled, I had noticed he was very passionate about our history.
"Well, love, since the lycans rule over the werewolves, we have to pledge our allegiance to them whenever a new Alpha ascends. Regarding the Supreme Alpha family, you could say they are royalty. They are cousins with the lycan royal family, not directly. Still, about three generations ago, the Lycan Queen was mated to a werewolf, and their heirs were then mated to werewolves from the Supreme Diamond Pack. So to maintain a hierarchy, the lycans named the Supreme Diamond Pack the elite pack that looks over wolf country and reports back to them,” he explained.
Oh! It kind of made sense. Wolves tended to work by hierarchy.
"Are you close to any of them since Dark Storm is the biggest after the Diamond pack?" I asked.
"Yes, little Luna, Isaiah and Josiah are pretty good friends. We trained together and even went to university together. They are the future twin Supreme Alphas. You'll like them when you meet them tomorrow,” Ezekiel said.
Wait! What?
Why would I be meeting them?
Seeing my confused face, Zeke said,
"You're the future Luna, angel. You'll need to be there to welcome them otherwise it would be rude."
Oh yeah, future Luna. Forgot about that.
Though, this time when they said it, I didn't freak out, but had a rush of happiness.
I hope I don't embarrass them tomorrow.
"What of the Lycan kings? Are you guys close?" I asked, wanting to know if they were friends as well.
Sam scoffed and said as he pulled me onto his lap.
"They aren't the friendliest. Their lycans can be pricks since they haven't found their Luna Queen yet. But, we have a friendly relationship like every werewolf and royal has. Though, they're close to Isaiah and Josiah,” said Sam.
Fudge! Now I really hope I don't embarrass them.
For the rest of the dinner, it went on like this with me asking questions about their ceremony and them asking me about what I had been doing.
True to their word, they didn't leave my side even for a second, and kept on glaring at any guy that looked my way for too long.
Before I knew it the dinner was coming to an end. I was exhausted, and noticing my discreet yawns, the quads ushered me back to the room.
On the way, I met up with my friends and said goodbye. But unfortunately, Leah and Ela were still at it with their sexual gestures, which the quads saw and smirked at me.
Goddess, why give me these harlots as best friends.
But things couldn't have gotten more awkward than when Luna Crystal saw Hannah gyrating her hips at me on my way out with the quads. Luna Crystal burst out laughing, and the quads tried their best to hold off their laughter.
I ran to the room and zoomed into the bathroom, not wanting to catch eyes with the quads and see me as red as a tomato. Instead, I heard the quads burst out laughing as soon as I closed the door.
Changing out of my dress, showering and putting on my pyjamas, I sauntered out and halted in my steps.
On the bed lay four Adonises, without shirts and rippled abs on display.
Holy mother of everything holy!
I could get used to that view.
No wonder all the she-wolves threw daggers at me. They were gorgeous. Words couldn't describe how perfect they were.
Gulping down the non-existent saliva in my mouth, and trying to control the leakage in my panties, I went towards the bed.
They all lifted their noses and took a big whiff, like smelling a delicious steak.
The thing was that I was the steak in this context.
"Everything okay, baby?" asked Sam, smirking at me.
"Oh, um yeah. I was just ...,” Goddess, why couldn't I talk anymore, "... don't you guys want to wear a shirt or something? I asked, clearing my throat, trying to sound confident.
"Do you want that, angel?" asked Zeke pulling me towards him, so I stood between his legs.
I gulped and nodded.
"Little Luna, you say something, but your body says something completely different,” said Ezekiel, coming behind, snaking his arm around my midriff as he laid small kisses down my neck.
I instinctively moved my neck to the side to give him more access.
I heard them chuckle, but I didn't care at the moment. I could feel Azreal kiss down the other side of my neck. Sam was inching closer to my weeping flower but never touching it, as Zeke squeezed my thighs.
"Please stop,” I whimpered.
But don't stop.
"You sure, love?" asked Azreal.
No, I wasn't sure, but if we didn't stop now I would probably end up giving in. I didn't want to despite how much my body wanted it. I wanted to get to know them more before we went there.
Sensing my inner monologue, the quads let go.
A small whimper left my lips.
They all laughed.
"As much as we want to, Luna, we want you to be sure and happy,” said Ezekiel, kissing my forehead and ushering me to the bed.
I was between Ezeakil and Azreal tonight.
I sighed with contentment. This was slowly becoming my heaven, and I was ready to welcome it.
Tomorrow they would introduce me as their Luna to the Lycan Kings and the twins, and I couldn't be more ready.
