Chapter 21 : My mark
ALPHA TAHIRA
TAHIRA.
I tightened my belts as I stared at my reflection in the mirror.
I'm getting married under the full Moon and I wished I would get the opportunity shift after the event.
I ended up wearing my leather Trousers and jacket for the ceremony.
None of the balloon gowns tickled my fancy and I went for what suits me.
The king and Aiden can go hang themselves and I put on my red leather boots.
Let's get this ceremony started at once.
I walked out to meet Aiden who was dressed beautifully like the prince he was.
Gosh,his attire was gold which accentuated his gold eyes and his godly features.
"This is barbaric Tahira, do you want the packs to reject you." He gasped, the moment he sighted my attire and I rolled my eyes.
"If You can reject a whole badass Princess like me, what is seven in one Pack? I'll actually laugh at their rejection."
I told him and he face palmed himself "you're Princess Tahira, your dress code should speak the same."
"Are we getting married or are we bantering about my dress? you should be bothered about what's coming for me like you were last night." "You're just the same, a whole load of psychopaths."
"I know." I whispered to his hearing and he hesitated and sighed and dragged me out to meet a massive crowd I've ever met in my entire life.
Now this place was massive with prying eyes boring eyes into my whole body.
We had barely taken an inch to sit with the king when I heard their loud disapproval from all corners.
"She can never be our Queen, what the heck is she wearing for her ceremony?"
"She's from the Red Stone Pack! A murderer will never rule us!!"
"She's not fit for the handsome prince, she's ugly!!"
"To hell with her."
I clenched my teeth angrily and was so ready to erupt but Aiden pleading eyes calmed me.
He knew it won't end nicely and i actually didn't give a fuck at the moment
They had no right to bash me in such a manner.
The moon goddess was standing so beautifully in her attire and she smiled sweetly at me.
We walked up to the king and bowed and he smiled..a fake one.
"Black Crystal, White moon, Flower hills, Green Plateau, Gold cave, Black cave and Silver stones Pack, Behold your future Queen and King."
He said hesitantly and they all gave a loud applause.
"I give them my blessings, to be fruitful, more powerful, wisdom to rule and heirs to take over as the moon guide them and increase their wolf strength."
We both bowed and smiled at him while the Queen stared daggers at us.
It was her turn to give her blessings but it was evident she wouldn't say anything as we stood there awkwardly.
I left Aiden and went over to my seat, she can go to hell for all I care.
"It's evident that the queen isn't in support of our future Queen, isn't that obvious that princess Tahira isn't fit to be our Queen."
One of the men sitting, which I presumed to be the leader of one of the packs mentioned, uttered harshly and the majority hummed.
"Tahira is the chosen one and a very powerful one. It's either you accept that or you go to the moon goddess and question her authority. She remains the most fitted an anyone who is against that should provide the prince a queen that old defend the pack against the upcoming crisis that's about to happen."

The guy I met at the first pack stood up and defended.
Blake.
He was ravishingly beautiful in his sweatpants and denim polo.
He appeared to wield more authority as the others shushed at once and I smiled at him.
Majority were happy about my stay here while the majority were not,such didn't even move me.
"Tahira, come forward for your royal mark."
The beautiful icy woman said and everyone kept quiet.
Light emanated from her and twirled around her.
She was such a beauty but her aura was so powerful and calm.
The royal mark was compulsory as it's a stamp of royalty. Anywhere I step my feet to guarantee my safety.
No one dares touch an individual with a royal Mark.
I smiled and stood up as I walked with ease to meet her.
The next step I took shook the whole ground as something incredible happened next.
I didn't turn back as I stared at the faces of everyone before me.
It was pure shock and a loud uproar occurred immediately.
The moon goddess shook her head in disbelief and yelled at once.
"Tahira, your royal Mark!! Now!!"
I still didn't look back cause I knew that whatever just emerged was a worst creature or anywhere worse.
I ran with speed but it's As if something else thumped hard and followed me, following my steps.
If the moon goddess wants me to have my mark, then it must be important.
I heard bones snapping and cracking with rage and howling of their wolves as they lunged towards whatever was following me.
I stood before the queen as I pant heavily as she hurriedly tried to stamp the mark but I was thrown like a rag doll to the farther end of the wall. My eye was closed and my back hurts in pain.
I just didn't want to see whatever it was, not just yet.
I needed my mark first.
I groaned in pain and stood up, turning my back as I walked hastily towards the queen who was already in front of me with worry.
"What's going on?" I whispered.
"Can't you see for yourself?"
"I might lose Focus, just get me the mark before I get thrown again."
"I..were, it seems you already have it.'
I frowned.
"What do you mean?"
"I don't know but the mark is already on your neck. It seems someone already marked you before the ceremony and...it's weird."
She said and I wasn't even given time to connect the confusion when I felt a sharp scratch on my back.
I screamed in pain and I turned to look at such a creature when I met with Aiden's wolf who jumped to see what I couldn't bear to see yet with utmost anger but he was thrown off to the table which broke into pieces. What I saw before rendered me weak and speechless.
The Hall was in total uproar fighting a black ugly Hyde while my heart is about to rip off as I'm staring at a dreadful looking Lycan.
