Chapter 163: Chapter 163

[DIANA’s Point of View]

I couldn’t understand what was happening, but I knew Mom was scared.

I just wasn’t sure if it was about the giant men that came marching towards the hall, but the stares of all the people at her as she stepped up the stairs.

Mommy looked like a moon shining brightly in her silver gown. I had never seen someone as beautiful as Mom. And my eyes sparkled when I saw her face on the big screen at the other side of the hall. Was the whole pack watching for her coronation? I can tell how nervous she was. I could feel it. I could see it in my Mommy’s eyes. Yet, despite all of it, she wanted to accept the role and take responsibility for the pack.

My left hand rested on my chest, near my heart, beating fast. I didn’t understand why I was so anxious for my mom, but I guess it’s what Mommy’s feeling that I felt through the bond. It was the guilt Devon and I shared for always making Mommy and Dad worry for both of us. We got into a lot of trouble thinking we could help. But now I understand that doing what Mom and Dad said was the best thing to do rather than following my twin and my judgment on the situation.

Devon and I promised we would do better after what happened in the castle in the Black Forest.

As I watched all the rogues kneel in front of my Mom, my heart raced! What was happening? Devon looked at me nervously as well and then back at the rogues and Mom. We saw how Dad tried to control the situation, but Mom seemed confident that these people only came for her. I couldn’t understand why, but there were many things that Mom and Dad didn’t tell us.

“Don’t be scared. I’m here.” Devon whispered, his eyes narrowing sharply as he watched Dad handle the situation. “Dad knows what he’s doing.”

“What do these people want from Mom?” I asked him nervously, scared of another fight that might happen. “Why did Dad let them stay?”

“The ceremony is starting, Diana. Focus!” Devon scolded me, and I got so upset he wasn’t answering any of my questions, so I folded my arms on my chest and pouted.

Throughout the ceremony, I felt there was something that didn’t seem right. Like something in me was telling me something awful would happen. Something tragic and dangerous, and I needed to tell Mom or Dad about it. My palms kept on sweating. I felt a pounding in my head that made my vision slightly blurry. But I couldn’t tell Devon about it. He wanted to watch Mom, and since the ceremony started, he didn’t take his eyes away from her. He had been excited for this moment since last night, and I didn’t want to ruin it because of my stupid headache.

However, my wolf and I understood that it was not merely a simple headache; rather, it was a sign—a premonition indicating that something would occur, which I felt in my stomach.

I wanted to cry.

Devon must have felt the strangeness in me, and I felt his hand hold mine when my eyes started to become teary.

“Diana?” he asked, worry etched on his face as he glanced at me. “Did something happen? Another vision?”

“No,” I pouted my lip and was about to cry, but I held back my tears. “I just don’t feel good. I feel like something’s going to happen.”

That’s when Devon started to look alarmed, and I felt awful because I never wanted to bother him with my strange feelings. “What do you mean, Diana? Are there enemies around? Do you think these rogues are plotting something about Mom and Dad?”

A sob emerged from my throat. I didn’t know how I could explain it to my brother. “I don’t know, Devon. I am not sure. I just feel something bad would happen!”

I looked at the stage, and Dad stood from his seat and took the crown. He approached Mom with a gentle, loving look on his face. When he placed the crown on Mom’s head, my eyes widened when she shone brightly like a full moon! She was so beautiful that my tears rolled down my face.

“Diana! Look!”

I immediately turned to where my brother pointed, and our eyes both widened in horror and surprise! A shadow that had a figure of our Grandma, standing eerily behind the crowd, and was wearing the same dress as our mother, only it was black!

My heart was racing, and although I didn’t understand why, my feet moved quickly as I ran to the spot where we had seen the shadow. I heard Devon behind me telling me to stop, but I couldn’t! Something within me told me I had to check it for myself, and when I got there, the shadow was gone.

“Diana! What are you doing?!” Devon cried as he stopped behind me, looking so pissed. “Mom told us never to go anywhere!”

“I know, but—”

I was stopped when a lady in front of us whispered to the woman beside her. “She looked so embarrassed when she was driven away from the pack. And now look at her! Already acting like a queen!”

I was enraged at what I heard and was about to scream at the lady. But Devon stopped me and grabbed me by the arm, his face upset as he faced me. “You are not doing this, Diana! We have to go back to Dad. Now!”

He didn’t give me any more chances to fight with the lady and dragged me up the stage, where we both found Dad speaking with Beta Liam. He squatted the second he saw us and smiled, asking if my brother and I were okay.

Devon looked at me sideways as if giving me a warning not to tell anything weird to Dad. He didn’t like calling him Dad, though. I think he still didn’t trust Dad for Mom’s happiness.

But it seemed my guess was wrong.

Devon took the wolftail grass from behind his shirt. We got it as a gift for Mom on the way to the place.

“Here! You give this to Mom and don’t ever make her cry again!” Devon said to Dad with a serious look on his face. His face turned red as he blushed, and then he sprinted away to pretend he wanted to discuss something with Beta Liam.

Dad looked at me, puzzled at what happened, but I just smiled at him and then shrugged.

Then I realized Mom was watching the three of us and was chuckling as Dad mouthed to her, “They are better at making you happy than me.”

Mom and I couldn’t help but laugh at Dad.
