“What the hell is going on here?!” Rowan’s voice rang out sharply.
Everyone fell silent as they gaped in shock. The man who stepped out didn’t need to introduce himself. They recognized him instantly.
Alpha Rowan.
“Oh my goodness! It’s Alpha Rowan!” The pack members exclaimed among themselves in excitement.
The Red Moon Alpha, Alpha Rowan was a legend. He was far too powerful to attend something as small as Felix’s mating ceremony, so it was a huge surprise to even see him here.
Jade started to move toward him, but Felix grabbed her arm.
“What do you think you’re doing?” He hissed sharply.
“You can’t just approach him,” He hissed under his breath. “That’s the Alpha of the Red Moon pack, the largest pack. Don’t embarrass yourself even more.
Leave now.”
Jade smiled coyly. “Why should I leave? My mate is here.”
It was an unbelievable story. Everyone knew that Felix wasn’t even on Alpha Rowan’s level. His pack was ten times larger than Felix’s pack, so there was no way a rejected omega like Jade could even breathe the same air as him.
Felix sneered at her, but it was Bella who replied her.
“In your dreams, Jade,” she snapped, “Alpha Rowan is not on your level at all. Do you even know what you’re talking about? You’re nothing–just a rejected omega clinging to fantasies. Pathetic!” She spat Venomously.
Felix tightened his grip on her arm. “Don’t give us a bad name by trying to whore yourself out to Alpha Rowan.”
Jade yanked her arm out of Felix’s tight grip. “Get your hands off me, you vile coward!” She snapped.
Felix’s expression darkened. “How dare you?” He growled.
Jade saw his fist approaching her face, and she flinched, closing her eyes to
brace for the hit.
It never came. When she opened her eyes, Rowan was standing in front of her, holding Felix’s fist with a murderous expression on his face.
“How dare you?” Rowan gritted through clenched teeth, his voice low and

dangerous.
The crowd froze. No one dared to speak.

Felix paled as he stared at the murderous look on Rowan’s face. “I….I…was just… She was trying to crash the ceremony. I was just escorting her out…”
Rowan gave him an icy glare, pushing his fist down. “Are you throwing me out of your ceremony, Felix?”
Felix gaped in horror, shaking his head frantically, “No, no, Alpha Rowan. I can never. You don’t understand, I said that—”
Rowan cut him off with a cold look on his face. “I understand very well what you’re saying, Felix.”
Rowan didn’t bother with using Felix’s title. “What I want to know is why you invited me, if you’re going to tell me to my face to leave.”
Felix was confused. He didn’t understand what was going on. He never told Alpha Rowan to leave. How could he? It was an honor for Alpha Rowan to even grace his ceremony. Felix was even shocked to see him here, even though he sent the invitation to him.
“Please, I don’t under-”
Rowan cut him off again. “What is there not to understand? Do you expect me to stay here any longer when you’re throwing my mate out? When you’re manhandling her? When you insulted me by laying hands on my mate?” He
sneered.
Gasps of disbelief echoed through the crowd, as they glanced at Jade.
Felix had not yet realized what Rowan was trying to say, maybe it was the denial that Jade could never leave him, and there was no way she could be
with Alpha Rowan.
“Your–Your mate? Where?” he choked out.
Rowan didn’t respond with words. Instead, he turned to Jade and reached out his hand slowly. His expression was soft as he gazed at her with all the love in the world.
Jade hesitated for a moment, her heart pounding in her chest, before she took his hand.
Rowan smiled softly as he pulled her close, wrapping his arm around her waist protectively, and possessively. The gesture was very clear, she was his.
Felix spluttered. “What? No–what? This… this doesn’t make sense! I don’t

understand. It can’t be true.”
“Yes, Felix,” Rowan said, his voice was cold and firm. “My mate. My Luna,
Chosen by the Moon Goddess herself.”
Bella’s mouth fell open.
