Longing For My Rejected Luna

Chapter 123

*****Noir's POV*****

The annual Christmas party at the Ironclaw Pack was advertised on TV a few days ago, and today marks the actual celebration.

I carefully selected my attire, mainly to impress Erika as mother said. I donned my best suit for the occasion, while my mother insisted on going with me to the party.

I welcomed her company with no other choice.

It was difficult to refuse her. Together, we made our way to the car, mother gracefully leading the way. With a gentle click, we settled into the comfortable seats.

"Tonight is going to be the night, Noir." She said suddenly and I turned to look at her.

"What do you mean?" I asked and she smiled.

"Propose to Erika tonight, you said she liked the date, so propose marriage to her and see how it goes." I gave her a skeptical look, then shook my head in disapproval.

"I can't do that, Mother. That's too rushed." I reasoned. She glared at me before yelling, "It's not too rushed! This pack needs a Luna and it would do us good to have a female Alpha as the Luna." She said, dusting off the imaginary dust on her shoulder.

I watched my mother for a while, trying to think through her words. What would Erika do if I proposed to her? Wouldn't she try to fight me or probably ward me off. And it would hurt my ego more if she ever chooses to reject me before everyone. "What if she rejects me before everyone?" I asked my mother and she scoffed. "You want to propose before everyone? You're advised to go somewhere hidden. But she won't reject you by the way." She convinced me and I had no other choice but to believe her.

But I knew Erika, she might definitely not want to have anything to do with me after this, I just had to be extremely careful with her.

We stayed silent till the car finally arrived at the venue; Ironclaw Packhouse.

The entire place was well decorated and guests had begun to arrive. Each car that trooped in were customized cars for each pack Alphas and Betas present at the party. Ours weren't exempted too, we arrived at the entrance of the place and the valet pulled the door open for us.

We stepped down and directly walked into the enormous packhouse. The entire decorations and the Luxurious ambiance was extremely jaw dropping.
