Chapter 59 - His Heavenly Mate

HEAVEN - LEIGH’S POV

—

“I think I might faint .” Mia over exaggerates as she puts the back of her hand against her forehead , her head falling back dramatically .

“Stop lying .” I roll my eyes at her as I pad over to the full length mirror . My breath hitches in my throat as I catch a glimpse of myself . “Wow .” I breathe out , my eyes trailing down the length of my body in the reflection . The sparkling green emerald dress hugs my body , there’s a slit on the right and it’s loose around my legs , flowing freely while my breasts are covered but pushed together to form a respectable amount of cleavage . I have a diamond necklace around my neck , diamond earrings and my diamond tennis bracelet .

I feel like a princess .

My hair is dutch braided on my head , leading back into a flower form and the rest of my copper hair hangs loose down my back . “You look stunning .” Mia smiles at me . “Thanks , now get your dress on !” I demand , cocking my head at her . She turns to her covered dress that hangs upon my closet and she zips it open for stripping and putting it on . “I wish purple didn’t make me look like a damn ghost .” I pout , she bought the dress that I really liked , but it didn’t suit my complexion nor my damn hair .

It’s a light violet colour that made my skin look bleaker by the minute .

“Don’t be such a pout .” Her tanned skin looked as if it were glowing in that dress . I don’t necessarily have a bleak skin , but against her ? I look like a ghost .

“Well at least someone I actually like bought the dress and because you are my best friend ..” I smile brightly , “No , your boobs will stretch my dress .” She scoffs . “Come on , it’s not that much bigger .” I argue , because it is the truth . My breasts aren’t much bigger .

“You don’t see me helping myself to your closet , do you ?” She scoffs as she joins me in front of the mirror . “Time for a selfie ?”

She whispers and I glance over at the watch .

“Shit , not really . But whatever .” I shrug as I pad over to the bed and grab my phone , “Do it anyways .”

We take a selfie before my door flies open . “What on earth is taking you two so long ?” My mother snaps , her eyes narrowed as she glares at us . “We are worth the wait .” I scoff before tossing my phone onto my bed and I link my arm with Mia’s , dragging her to the door . “See you .” I mumble as we stride past my irked mother , my insides jumping with joy as she doesn’t snap back at me . “Wait .” My mother bellows as we walk down the hall .

Well at least I thought she would let us be .

“Mia , could you give us a moment ?” Her voice sounds sincere and caring and I nod at Mia as she gives me a worried glance . I watch my beautiful best friend stride away , leaving me be with my birth giver .

My mother’s eyes are glued to Mia and she only looks over at me once she has fully disappeared . “Listen you little bitch , you talk to me like that one more time and it would be the end of you — alpha or not , I am your mother and I will not tolerate any of your bullshit , so you understand me ?” She grits out in a mere whisper , which makes my head fall back in a fit of laughter . “What is so funny ?” She asks , her hands balling into tight fists . “You .” I chuckle , but there was no trace of humor in my voice .

“I don’t think I told you a joke .” Her face twitches up in a snarl and I am pretty sure that this is what the wicked witch of the west looked like , without the red hair .

“You didn’t .” I shake my head , “You are the joke .” A small smile tugs at my lips and her eyes flick red , I could sense the anger radiating off of her tall body and she lifts her hand , the back of the hand comes swinging to my cheek and I growl as I grab her wrist , bending it back and the sound of her bone snapping soothes my itching palms .

“Do not lay a hand on me .” I grit out before releasing her and she stumbles back , clutching her arm and I could already hear her bones pulling back together . Right now , I wish we did not have werewolf healing because I want her to hurt the way my heart is hurting .

“If you weren’t luna , I would have suggested you stay the hell away , but you’re going to get your shitty personality together and I will see you outside , Gina .” I turn on my heel , feeling superior as I walk away from the one person I had longed to build a relationship with , but that’s all over now .

She doesn’t say anything as I stride off , making my way outside .

I smile as I see Grayson and his parents right in front , his eyes glancing around and I could tell he was looking for me . My father notices me before he clears his throat , everybody falls silent and my nerves begin to eat at me . “Let’s give a hand of applause to your next alpha !” He bellows in a cheerful voice and I could feel my cheeks heating up as I make my way to the group of people .

My eyes were fixed on Grayson’s as he stares at me in awe , his lips parted , his eyes wide and I knew I looked pretty , but he looks at me like I’m the only girl in the world .

My eyes drag over to my father and I happily take his hand as I take the few steps up the steps to the small stage they had built yesterday .

“My pride and joy .” My father smiles at me as he leads us centre stage , everybody goes quiet as she speaks , listening to what their leader has to say . “You are the greatest thing that has ever happened to me and it it my honor to see you take over my legacy .” He smiles , his eyes so soft as he speaks so lovingly . “Thanks dad .” I clear my throat before I get too emotional .

He reaches for a blade and a cup . He hands me the cup , holding his hand over it as he slices his palm . The blood pools into the cup and it begins to drip as the wound heals , the skin pulling back together and my father takes the cup , handing me the knife . “Your turn , princess .” I smiled , because for once , the annoying nickname , did not annoy me .

Today , I felt like a princess - turning into a queen .

I take the sharp blade , admiring it’s golden handle before I slice my palm , the blood mixing with my father’s in the cup and I watch as my palm heals faster than his .

“Here you go , elder Mell .” My father hands the blade back to her and she cleans it before tucking it into it’s holder that connected around her waist .

“Drink child .” She insists and I grimace at the thought . “Everything ?” I ask . She shakes her head , “Just two sips .” She murmurs and I nod , lifting the chalice like cup to my mouth , taking two sips .

“Do you , Heaven - Leigh Pierce , see this pack as your own ?” She asks . “Yes , I do .” I smile

“And do you promise to put the pack first ?”

“I promise to put the pack and their needs first .”

Elder Mell walks forward , glancing over everybody’s heads .

“Do you , Argent pack members , accept Heaven - Leigh Pierce , as your next alpha ?” She booms . Everybody kneels accept Grayson and his parents and the strangest feeling washes over my body , a surge of power rips through me and my eyes flick read automatically .

I could feel them , I could feel all of them . I turn to look at my dad and I am shocked to see him and my mother on their knees in front of me .

“You are now Alpha , young one .” Elder Mell bows her head and I smile .

The power running through my veins makes me feel like I could do absolutely anything .
