Longing For My Rejected Luna

Chapter 78

*****Erika's POV*****

"If it isn't Iron Claw's newest Alpha."

I turned towards the familiar voice and ran into his arms. Noir Hart, my male best friend from childhood. Responsibility and duty had separated us for years but that did not mean we had stopped been best friends.

"Noir, you crazy fellow." I hugged him, laughter and joy filling my heart.

"Ouch. You hurt my heart, Riri." He was the only one who called me Riri.

"You came!" I squealed. I was so happy to see him. Noir Hart of Thunderpaw pack. The second strongest pack in Fangoria, and from what I had heard, he was a ruthless Alpha.

Well, every Alpha had to be ruthless and brutal, it was the only way to retain leadership else one would be thrown off their Alpha throne before they could blink.

"Of course, I came. Why would I want to miss my best girl's coronation? That would be an unforgivable sin.” He laughed.

I smiled. Noir Hart was a tall, handsome guy, though his attractiveness was more dark. His black hair was the exact same shade of his eyes. But I think he had the most brilliant smile ever.

He had come to my coronation, and that was the sweetest thing ever. I knew how much it took for him to make that sacrifice especially as an Alpha who had his own pack to rule. I found it endearing that he made out time to come see me.

After my discussion with Alex, he had looked so dumbfounded that he had not been able to say anything else. I knew the condition I had given to him was crazy and no one would agree to it but he was a desperate man and while I had dismissed him since he was not giving me an answer, I knew he would be back.
