Shirley received my message and didn't reply, I think she must have been hit on by many people.
The men long for a girlfriend as beautiful as Shirley, and the women want a beautiful mate for their brother or son, and they all come to hit on Shirley, expecting to find an opportunity.
In addition to status, beauty is a temptation that anyone can hardly resist.
I walked along with the road home, the road was deserted, all the people were gathered in the Golden Hall this evening, and the road belonged to me again.
On both sides of the road were vast plains and endless darkness. I was enveloped by the darkness and this lonely feeling reminded me again of being alone in a foreign country.
At that time, although there were no wolf companions around, I felt long-lost happiness, and no one rejected me because I was an alien. In fact, in a sense, I was no different from ordinary humans.
Shirley sent a message, "Okay, I'll help you stay out of sight." Her reply was brief, and I can imagine she probably replied to me from a corner where there weren't so many people hiding with her phone!
There were a lot of people at the ball and it was disrespectful to always have your phone in your hand, something Shirley would not do, but, even more so, she would not give up on her beloved sister.
I can't help but laugh when I think of the way Shirley secretly opens her cell phone, and I think of the way Shirley stole buns from Mrs. Mary's house when she was little, her whole body curled up, her two eyes constantly scanning around, and her little mouth beaming.
Because it's Shirley's habit to beep whenever she's very nervous.
I was just too hungry to laugh at Shirley's appearance, but in retrospect, Shirley's look was really cute.
I continued down the path and it wasn't long before I saw our house.
---- prom.
"Hey, Shirley! You're still as beautiful as ever! It's so jealous!"
Katie accosted Shirley with a glass of red wine. Shirley put away her phone, didn't want to make much of an expression on her face, just gave her a small smile, and Shirley wanted to leave.
But Katie didn't want Shirley to leave, she stopped Shirley with her arm, "Gina's back? I heard Aunt Mary say Gina sneaked away! This is something extraordinary, the Alpha's order she dares to refuse, if I were Gina, even if the whole clan makes fun of me at the ball, I still want to participate in Luna's election! After all, this is my dream!"
Shirley didn't answer her words as Katie continued to mumble to herself, "Gina's just too ugly looking! Even if she came to the ball, she wouldn't get the Alpha, so I'm not going to report her for that."
Shirley turns her head and stares dead into Katie's eyes, reminding her of being pounced on by Shirley as a child, and she becomes a little flustered.
Katie tightened her grip on the glass, took a step back, looked around, and whispered to Shirley, "There are so many people here, if you strike at me, you'll be immediately overpowered by the soldiers! And I can turn into a wolf now!"
Shirley felt that what she said was laughable. She would indeed be caught by the soldiers if she did it here, but Katie turning into a wolf did not affect her because Shirley's fighting ability was full, and she could defeat even ordinary soldiers, not to mention Katie who could not fight at all.
Katie does not like to fight, she will always spend her time looking at men, she never fights, but always appears on the training ground, she does not know anything about fighting, but knows very well which man has a few abs, which man is strong, and which man is a good kisser.
The werewolf pack selects the Alpha as a combination of combat prowess, physical fitness, and military prowess, all three of which must reach a perfect score to become an Alpha candidate, followed by a test by the patriarch to select the best man as our new Alpha, and those who are not selected will become the Alpha's Protector.
Katie inquired about these from Mrs. Mary, so she was using these criteria to see men. If a man gets a perfect score in a fight, he gets a kiss from Katie, and if he gets a perfect score in two, he gets to go out with Katie for a month.
These are all things that Mrs. Mary told me, her only hobby is to talk about other people everywhere, if there is nothing to talk about, she will make up a story herself and spread it.
Those men who did not want to become an Alpha, to get involved with Katie, will try to deceive Katie, Katie did not get sad because of being deceived, she enjoyed it, she enjoyed seducing men, she always said it was a special ability given to her by God.
Shirley despised her behavior and once said very firmly that Katie could never become Luna.
The music of the ball suddenly stopped and people looked together at the staircase in the middle of the hall, a man in a noble gown came down the stairs and everyone saluted him, "Greetings my beloved king!"
Alpha hands up, people rose and looked up at him with great respect, at this point he was like a god.
He is flanked by Protector Forsford and Elder Jason.
Jason is Katie's uncle. Katie was once so excited that she couldn't sleep for three days because Jason lost the election for Alpha, and if Jason became Alpha, she could never become Luna, after all, it was her uncle.
Katie's eyes were filled with longing, and she had now forgotten about Shirley beside her as she made her way to the Alpha, her hands sweating with excitement and her cheeks flushed.
And the towering Alpha didn't notice her. The Alpha looked around the crowd with some loss in his eyes, as if he was looking for someone, but seemed to have failed.
Shirley sensed his mood with precision and felt puzzled.
Because Shirley doesn't know yet that her dear sister has met with the Alpha! And has concluded a MATE!
"King, here are all the women of the pack, if we can find Luna tonight, it will be a gift from the moon goddess to our pack!" Jason said to Alpha William.
"It's not all about the women here!" William's words made the crowd start to stir and Shirley's palms were already sweating.
William whispered a few words to Forsford, then turned around and went back to the second floor, leaving Jason and Forsford alone.
Jason said to the people, "The music continues!" and turned to follow William upstairs.
Horsford announced that he would be choosing Luna on behalf of Alpha, and the crowd's agitation briefly subsided.
The dance was over at 7:30. Shirley came home and told me all about the dance, and I didn't care what would happen to Katie but was surprised at why Alpha knew I wasn't at the dance.
"Gina, have you met Alpha William?" Shirley's words reminded me of the man I met in the garden!
"God! I might have seen Alpha!" I stared at my dear sister in horror, "Shirley, I think the man I met in the garden with silvery-white hair and dark blue eyes was Alpha William!"
Shirley laughed heartily, hugged me tightly, and said excitedly, "Oh! My baby! Gina, you must have had an exciting experience in the garden! Are you in love with him?"
"Shirley, I think I'm deeply in love with him! But I see the disgust for me in his eyes."
"My baby! Don't worry, I'll help you!" Shirley was so excited that she hugged me once more, "God! Thank God! Finally, my dear sister has found her MATE! Gina, know that you deserve the best things in this world! Because your wisdom and kindness are the noblest qualities!"
I am grateful for my dear sister's love for me, without her, I would have lost the courage to live on, and now I have decided to pursue the love that belongs to me!
I took out my notebook and wrote on it the phrase, "Be brave and pursue your love!"
At the same time, a knock sounded at the door and my sister went downstairs to answer it. I looked out the window at the birds flying and felt in a good mood.
"Gina! You come down here for a minute!" My sister called me from downstairs, feeling a little hoarse like she had just cried.
I rushed downstairs, afraid that something had happened to my sister.
"Honey, what's wrong?"
I had just come downstairs when I saw two rows of soldiers standing at the entrance, arranged neatly. At the front of the soldiers stood a tall man with brown and black eyes, gray and white hair, a bowler hat on his head, and a tuxedo on his body, and he was not dressed like he had come to arrest me.
"Sister, what's wrong?" I stood next to my sister and the man looked me up and down and nodded again, he looked like he was pleased with me.
"Miss Gina, the Alpha has told us all about his encounter with you, you are our Luna, please come back with me for Luna's coronation!"
"God! Is this true?" I said it without thinking and I put my hands over my mouth.
If it wasn't for my sister standing next to me, I would have thought this man was a liar, it all came so suddenly, I had merely concluded a MATE with the Alpha, he hated me so much, but now the man standing in front of me was so dignified, and more importantly, he kept using honorific words!
I'm going to be Luna! I'm going to be married to the man I met last night! He's in love with me too?
"Yes, please Miss Gina pack up, and let's get going!"
Shirley was so excited that she hugged me, "Honey, go on! Don't keep your loved ones waiting too long, soon we'll be there for your ceremony too!"
My legs have gone limp, I feel my brain losing control of my body, it's so exciting it's about to explode!
But I still had to maintain the decorum I should have as a Luna and said to the polite man, "Please wait in the living room, I need to go upstairs and clean up."
"Yes, Miss Gina."
Shirley took my hand, and I could feel her palm getting wet. We both walked upstairs pretending to be calm, and when the door to the room closed, Shirley and I both jumped up and down with excitement.
"Oh! God! Tell me it's not a dream! Tell me it's not a dream!" Shirley was so excited to watch her dear sister find her true love as soon as she returned to the pack, and it was the alpha of the pack!
"Darling! You will be Luna! The Luna of our mighty pack! No one will be able to bully you from now on! You will have a loving husband, you will reap the rewards of a beautiful family, and you will have a position of exaltation! Oh my God! How wonderful it all is! What a dream! Tell me quickly, my dear sister is about to become Luna!"
I, too, wept with joy and hugged Shirley tightly, "My dear sister, it's all true! Thank you, thank you for your gift, thank you for your help, thank you for raising me! Your kindness will always be in my heart! I will be a good Luna! I will have happiness!"
"Yes, Gina! You will! Thank the Moon Goddess!"
I have now begun to think about the good life after becoming Luna.
