Correction. The strongest, and indeed, you do. You possess strength, kindness, loyalty, and diligence. “You will excel as Luna,” Cohen assures me. I bestow upon him a grateful smile.
“Thank you!””
“What message should we convey to our pack?”Cohen reiterates.
“I am uncertain.”
“We can inform them that I am your second chance companion, and your initial companion has perished? ”He proposes. I elevate one eyebrow. Who would accept that as credible?
No one will believe you could ever be a secondary option for anyone. Consider soliciting your parents’ opinions.I propose. He concurs, displaying a self-assured smirk in response to my compliment.
Upon our entrance, his parents are seated in the living room, engaged in reading. “Did you all miss the excitement so that you could read all day?” Cohen enquires. His parents are seated in adjacent chairs, facing away from us. “It is excessively loud and tumultuous; we have fulfilled our obligations.” “We are no longer in trouble,” his mother states. I gaze at Cohen, and we exchange smiles. They are unaware that Cohen is not solitary.
“I wished for you to meet two remarkable women,” Cohen informs his parents. They both turn their heads abruptly, astonished to see us.
“Is this…?”His mother enquires. He acknowledges with a nod, and I offer her a smile. I observe her gazing at me, and subsequently at Alyssa in Cohen’s embrace. Cohen’s father resembles Cohen, sharing the same dark hair, albeit with flecks of grey. He possesses a tanned complexion, is notably muscular, and has brown eyes.
His mother possesses short, dark brown hair that frames her face and reaches her chin, interspersed with grey strands. She possesses lighter skin and shares the same green eyes as Cohen. She is petite and slender. Cohen’s father rises and states, “Hello, I am Beckham, pleased to meet you,” while extending his hand for a handshake.
“I am Celine; it is a pleasure to meet you as well.”
“Who is this adorable individual?”He enquires while gazing at Alyssa.
This is Alyssa. Could you greet Alyssa with a ‘hi’?I enquire of her.
“Hello,” she remarks, yet nestles into Cohen. “She is typically quite reserved,” I inform Beckham, so he does not take it personally.
“Typically, she appears to have adapted to Cohen rather swiftly,” I remark. I am exceedingly proud that my friend has made a favourable impression on my girlfriend.
His mother exhibits hesitation and rises; I doubt she is pleased about Alyssa and me. “I am Ava; it is a pleasure to meet you both,” she states.
“It is a pleasure to meet you as well,” I respond. She maintains her distance, prompting me to refrain from approaching to extend my hand. She completely disregarded Alyssa. That somewhat irritates me. She may be experiencing overwhelm. I will extend her the benefit of the doubt on this occasion.
“Approach and take a seat.” “Let us familiarise ourselves with both of you,” Beckham states. I am seated on the couch opposite Cohen and Alyssa. “I have approximately 20 minutes remaining before the Alpha confrontation,” Cohen conveys to them.
What does Alpha combat?“Ava inquires.”
“They opted to introduce an Alpha category at the last moment,” Cohen states, omitting his involvement in that decision.
“Mama,” Alyssa complains, prompting me to extend my arms as Cohen hands her over to me. I assert that Alyssa possesses a remarkable intuition regarding energies and emotions. It appears she perceives it, which may explain her current desire for me. Cohen’s hand swiftly moves to my back. He is exceedingly observant.
“Please share information about yourself and your familial background,” his mother enquires.
“What is your family background?” My mother was a physician, and my father held the title of Gamma before their demise. My brother is now the Gamma, and I am a warrior.
“What is your rank?”“Ava inquires.”
“Second among the females.”
“Tsk tsk.” “No longer,” Cohen states with a proud smile.
“I believe I was fortunate today,” I state.
“She triumphed over all today.” “She even surpassed Claire,” Cohen exclaims with pride to his parents. Both of his parents appear quite pleased with that. “She secured first place in both the wolf and human races.”
“Impressive.” That is remarkable. What is the duration of your training? Beckham enquires.
“Indeed, training rigorously for a duration of 13 months.” I aspired to become a doctor, thus I trained for approximately 2-3 hours weekly. I took an 8-month hiatus and subsequently prioritized maximizing my strength.
Thirteen months? Cohen enquires, astonished. I furrow my brows and respond, “Yes, why?”His father is nodding as if he is impressed.
