“Good evening, everyone!” Athena said with a loud and clear tone while having a bright smile. She was standing on the third
floor o f the pack house while looking down at hundreds of pack members who gathered around in the second floor and living
room. They all looked up at her with a similar smile as her.
“Good evening, Luna.” The pack house boomed as they all wished her back together. Athena literally has to close her ears to
stop her ears from bleeding. The noise was so loud but it was so heartwarming that she chuckled out in happiness.
“I have never seen them wish Dominic so enthusiastically.” Justin joked with a smirk, making Athena, Patricia and Suzanne
chuckle. While Nathan smirked back at him.
“He is going to hang you upside down from this railing for stating the obvious truth.” Nathan joked and Justin’s face grimaced
thinking how true that was.
“Well, they lose their enthusiasm as soon as they look at the strict face of Dominic but in reality they love him more than
anything. ” Patricia said with a beautiful smile and everyone nodded at her.
“That’s so true and I am so happy because of that.” Athena said and they all looked downstairs to see the pack members calmed
down once again, waiting for her to speak up. She concentrated back on them.
“You guys will not stop calling me that, will you?” She asked in a teasing tone while chuckling and the whole crowd once again
joined her in this.
The scenery was so beautiful. She wished Dominic could witness this. The whole pack is trying to be strong for her and him. She
knew that they were being extra cheerful for her, to give her the strength she needed and she appreciated this a lot.
“Why should we stop calling you that, Luna?” One of them shouted from downstairs, his tone was teasing as he pressed on the
word ‘Luna’
“Look at this brat.” Nathan commented from behind in an amusing tone.
“You are our, Luna.” One more person joined the previous pack member in teasing her and soon more and more people joined
them i n the joke.
“We have the right to call you that.”
“Or is it that you don’t want to be our Luna?”
“Don’t you want our Alpha?”
“Don’t you love him?”
They all keep teasing, making her look at them with widened eyes. She knew they were joking to get a reaction out of it and they
were successful in getting it when she blushed hard hearing them which gave them the answers they were looking for.
“Oh my god! Stop your emotional drama. I see it all, people. I am your Luna for a reason.” She said while pretending to be strict,
making them grin at her ear to ear. That made her smile as well. They became happy when she called herself their Luna.
“Yes, Luna. We were kidding. We know you love our alpha and you are never going to leave us.” One of them shouted with
never ending trust in her tone, making her look at her with widened eyes.
As more and more people joined that woman in the trust list, she felt a huge amount of burden on her shoulder. But she wasn’t
going to let that make her feel low or stressed. She was going to use that as her power, as her strength to fight all the
challenges.
“I hope to never break your trust.” She said in a shaky tone, afraid of the promise she just made.
She really hopes that she doesn’t have to face a time when she would be forced to break this promise. She would be really
heartbroken if that day comes
“We believe in you, Luna” They shouted together, giving her the confidence she needed to believe in herself. After hearing them,
she believed that she would be able to keep her promise. She smiled brightly at them again, making them shout in happiness,
“Also, we love to call you Luna.” They were back to teasing her again and they all laughed out loud once again.
“Okay, okay I give up the conversation is never going to end this way.” She said with raised hands to show that she surrendered
in front of them. The environment was like this for a few more minutes before they all calmed down and looked up at him with a
calmer expression
“How’s Alpha, Luna?” One of the seniors asked in a worried tone, the question worked really well in silencing the house as
everyone looked up at her, eagerly waiting to hear good news. The hopeful look on their faces broke her heart as she didn’t have
anything to give them to him which could make them the happiest.
“His wounds are healed and he will get better soon I believe. But right now he is being lazy and loving to see me work.” She
joked to make the environment lighter again and that worked as everyone chuckled out once again.
“You are making him very proud, Luna.” One of them shouted and everyone, including her friends, nodded at her. She felt very
proud seeing the look of pride for her in everyone’s eyes. And the thought of him being proud of her was giving her another level
of happiness.
“Thank you, everyone.” She said with a smile.
“Did something happen, Luna?” After a few more minutes, a question came up from the crowd and soon another question joined
“What’s the reason for this meeting?” One of them asked in a worried tone. She smiled hearing the worried tone and her smile
removed the worried look from their faces.
“Nothing happened, don’t worry, everyone. I came here for a general meetup to know if everything is going alright for you or not.
Do you have any problems which you need our help to solve?” She said while getting serious suddenly. She was back on her
duty and professional mode which her friends admired from behind.
“There’s no problem, Luna. We are all okay.” One of them answered on everyone’s behalf. He was the head caretaker of the
pack. His job was to make sure everyone was okay. Hence he could reply so confidently on everyone’s behalf. He was a very
trusted man. Hence everyone believed him.
“That’s good to hear. How’s training going on for you all?” Athena moved on to the next question and she was interested in
knowing the answer to this.
“It was a little hard at first but now we got used to it.” One of the new warriors said. She recognised her because Athena had
seen her struggle on the training track when she went to train with them.
Athena was a great warrior from before. Robert always made all his thieves train hard because he didn’t want them to make him
fall into unnecessary trouble by getting caught. So, he made them all train hard so that they could protect themselves in such
situations and her being his best thief, he made her train really hard to improve her skills along with making her strong. So, she
was truly grateful to him for that.
She shook her head to come out of those thoughts and looked back at them with a hidden smirk. Nathan noticed that and
frowned a little but didn’t say anything at that moment.
“Do you guys need a little break from it?” She asked, sounding really concemed while trying hard to hide her smile and that’s
when all her friends understood what she was trying to do.
She was actually testing the pack members to see if they were going to take advantage of the offer and take a break from the
training. They were in a crucial moment when the training couldn’t be stopped at any cost. So, she wanted to see how much she
could trust them when the time comes. But she was very impressed when she heard their response.
“No, Luna. It was our Alpha’s order to train hard. We want him to see that we are following each of his commands when he
wakes u p.” The second head trainer said with confidence.
“Does everyone agree with him? Or you all have different thoughts than him. You can tell me freely.” She said with a raised
eyebrow, still going on with the acting even though they already passed the test.
“We don’t want to stop the training, Luna!” They all shouted, making her look at them with pride. She smiled at them brightly.
“I am very proud of you guys. Dominic would be very proud as well! Well done!” She encouraged them and they all looked happy
after getting praised by their Luna.
“Thank you, Luna.” They all shouted together, once again shaking up the whole mansion.
“This will be the end of this meeting. You can get back to what you were doing. Thank you, everyone.” She said in a dismissing
tone while smiling at them.
“Goodnight, Luna.” The second time in less than one minute that they shook the building.
“Goodnight, everyone.” She wished back and kept standing there as everyone started getting back to their previous places.
Slowly the whole place got vacant with only a few people walking around who stayed in the pack house.
“You are doing really well everyday ” Suzanne said with a proud look on her face as she walked toward her and hugged her
Athena looked at her with a shy smile before hugging her back. She didn’t pull back from the hug and kept hugging her like a
child would hug her mother. She looked at others while keeping her head on Suzanne’s shoulder. She was in the mood of getting
pampered at that moment. Everyone chuckled seeing her like that
“You keep surprising us.” Nathan said with a smirk, making her smirk back at him.
“Well, I don’t want Dominic to blame me or anything and say that we didn’t take good care of his pack in his absence.” She said
with a small shrug of her shoulders.
“That’s understandable.” Justin said with a chuckle as everyone else agreed with hom “What are you going to do now?” He
asked while looking at the hand watch. It was late at night already.
“I am going to call it a day now. I am going home ‘She said as she pulled back from the hug with a sigh Everyone looked at her
with a worried look. She looked exhausted but they didn’t say anything They knew she wanted to fight her fights alone
“Okay, Goodnight. They all wished her as she started to walk down the stairs slowly
“Goodnight, everyone’ She mumbled out as she was trying to look for the energy she needed to go home and face the situation
there.

“Sorry for coming late, Dominic You know your son is getting very naughty nowadays. I was giving him a bath before bed when
he suddenly started to play with the water. He didn’t only get him yet but me as well. And then ran around the whole house
before dinner. I can’t handle him anymore He exhausts me ‘Athena said in a cheerful tone while getting inside the room She
closed the door behind her and walked toward the closet while talking
She brought a towel out of the closet along with a box and shirt She kept sharing a few more moments shared with Ace while
“Hmm. So, Mr alpha Did you miss me?’ He asked while slowly putting her arms behind his neck and pulling him up in a seating
position She made him lean against the headboard before looking at his face with a smile once again As if he could see her and
she was looking him in the eyes
“Well, I missed you a lot. But now, don’t get angry because I didn’t come here all day Your pack is huge! The responsibility of this
pack is huge as well. And let me tell you something, keep it a secret between us. I think Nathan and Justin are getting lazy She
said in a mischievous tone while letting out a chuckle as she pulled the first aid box on her lap and opened it She picked up a
scissor before turning back toward him
“Shh. Don’t you dare to tell them that I said this! But it’s the truth actually they need you to keep them on track Your one glare
continued speaking with a chuckle as she slowly started cutting her bandage around his stomach furst She kept on doing her
work without minding anything or ever letting the thought of him not being there mentally let come in her head even for once
“No! How dare I call you scary. I wasn’t calling you scary You are very handsome The most handsome man in the world is that
what you wanted to know. She said with a chuckle while moving to cut the bandage on his chest She threw away the bandages
and looked at his defined body with a shy look on her face but she quickly shook all those thoughts away from her head and
started talking again
“You know what happened today?” She asked while bringing out the cleanser from the box “Let me tell you Today I was having a
general meeting with the pack again and I planned to test them So, I asked them if they wanted a break from the hard training
and guess what they said ‘She said in a smiling tone while she started cleaning his wounds which won’t need bandages again
“Hmm look at this. Your wounds are completely gone! You don’t need bandages anymore. Isn’t that great? She said with a smile
while caressing the almost gone scars on his body along with the one she gave. It was fading slowly as well
“But do you still want my magic medication? Well I am still going to give it to you, whether you like it or not. You can return them
back to me after you wake up. She said with a smirk before leaning down and giving three kisses on the three scars Her face
flushed red in blush as she quickly moved away from him. She was sure that she couldn’t have done that if he was okay at that
moment
“Oh, back to what I was saying. They said they didn’t want to stop the training until you said so They are very adamant in
completing your command I was very proud of them. I am sure you are as well. They were so happy when I said that I was proud
of them Think what would be their reaction when you would say the same to him “She said slowly as the emotions suddenly
overpowered her
“Oh wait, let me bring the water.” She said under her breath before getting up from the bed and running toward the bathroom
She pressed her mouth tightly as soon as she was inside the room and let some tears freely fall from her eyes. She didn’t let out
a single sound before taking a few deep breaths to calm herself down After she was composed enough, she walked out of the
bathroom after filling out the bowl with water
She sat beside him once again and wetted the towel by dipping it in the water Then she slowly started to wipe his body with it
while sharing a few more things that happened that day
“Okay, you are done cleaning up! Let’s wear a shirt now
She said while moving closer to him and put his body on her to make him
wear a shirt which she brought from the closest. “Oh my god, you are getting so heavy. Gosh. You are supposed to Carry me
around, not the other way around.” She huffed when suddenly something on his body caught her attention. As she looked at it
carefully, her eyes widened and her heartbeat rose. But she quickly got a hold of herself and acted like she didn’t see anything
and started talking like normal again.
“But it’s okay, I am not doing it for free. I am going to make you pay for it and be aware. The price is going to be really heavy.”
She complained while laying him down back on the bed again. She slowly lay down on the bed beside him. Her head was on his
chest as she listened to his calm heartbeat. The room fell into silence for a few minutes as she silently wept on his chest. “Look
at me, I am going crazy. Talking to myself like a crazy person. Don’t you feel pity on me?” She asked in a broken tone while not
raising her face to look at him. She didn’t have the will power or energy to do that. She wrapped her hands tightly around his
chest as she hid her face on his chest. His shirt was getting wet pretty soon.
“It’s hard, Dominic. Everything is so hard without you. I may be able to handle the whole world but at the end of the day, I fail to
handle myself. I need you to handle me. But when I don’t find you that way, it gets harder. Please don’t do this to me. Please
wake u p. Please.” She cried her heart out. Her body shook miserably as she was trying to stop herself from crying but it got out
of control once again and she didn’t know how to stop herself.
“Are you deliberately trying to punish me?” She suddenly asked in an angry tone but the next moment it was gone. And she felt
helpless again. “Because you also used to handle the whole world and at the end when you used to come home, I was acting
like a brat. Is that why you are doing this to me?” She asked as she remembered all those days he was trying to come close to
her but she used to push him away. She badly regretted that but if only he could understand her.
“Then please stop doing this. I am sorry. I promise not to leave you ever again. Please wake up.” She cried while hugging her
and she didn’t realise when she fell asleep while hoping for a different morning the next day.
A morning with his arms wrapped around her, not interested in letting her off the bed.
