Chapter 2 Her Soon-to-be Husband

Ch-2

She walked slowly down along the red carpet which was laid out for her to walk upon. As she walked past, all the heads from the vampire race and the werewolf race would turn towards her side.

In general, a werewolf female was meant to be beautiful. But, surprisingly, Adira was even more beautiful than the other females. Maybe it is because she was special compared to these werewolves.

Hooking her hand into her brothers, she walked forwards, hiding the nervousness from everyone. She didn't want to embarrass the whole werewolf empire just by not being able to walk properly as well as by tripping down. Adira felt so glad that her brother William Maximus was with her. But her smile soon faded when she realized he wouldn't be with her. Lifting her head, she watched the side profile of his face.

"Smile, Lil Twerp," he bent down and whispered in her ears, reminding her of the place they were in. Adira lifted her head and looked at the people's staring eyes. She bent her head slightly and then lifted her head after a split second which was crept with a wide and yet beautiful smile.

Her smooth jade-like skin, delicate features, rosy lips, blushing cheeks, her thin frame, and her bright smile. And the dress she was wearing, fitted her perfectly exposing her curves.

Adira felt like she was being stuffed with all the corset and the layers she was wearing. She was wearing an off-shoulder frock with reached the ground. For every step she took the tail of her gown would sweep the ground. She badly wanted a maid to lift her gown tail. She wondered what made them be not hold it for today.

"Brother," she called him out.

"I want a maid to help me to hold up the frock," she whispered in a requesting tone.

"Not now, Twerp. Let the Vampire elders meet you. After that I will make you comfortable," William assured her.

Adira walked slowly and carefully as if she was walking in the well of snakes. Her heels were not working for her situation. She felt she was carrying 10 to 20 kilograms of weight upon herself.

Meanwhile....

Far away at the main table of the banquet...

A man wearing a black tux looked impatiently at the red carpet. He was forced to marry a werewolf princess. In fact... from what they knew about werewolves they have their mates fixed by the moon-goddess. In their lifetime, they can only love them. If they don't mate with their destined mate, their inner wolf would be weakened as time passes and would die.

He pitied his soon-to-be wife for it. Well... he didn't pity his soon-to-be wife's brother as the rumors say that he was a Lycan.

From what he knew, when his mother died, his father found his second mate which was an extremely rare thing to happen for any werewolf. But as his father was the king of all the werewolf packs he needs a Luna. So, he married his present wife. And it was said that Adira was the daughter of the present Luna, Serene Adolphine. Well, Adolphine is her maiden name. she still carries that name without changing it. Everyone finds it weird but no one has the guts to question her due to the power she holds.

Thinking about her family he realized it has many internal mysteries. He wondered if his wife would be able to cope with them. From what he heard his soon-to-be wife was a prankster and a trickster. Wondering, how she would be mixed with his family, he chuckled lightly.

He stood up from his seat quickly when his subordinate had said that he has gotten an important letter from the Velorine empire. He went along with him and soon read the contents in it. His chocolaty eyes turned red and fangs started growing as he read it.

"Don't forget who is the king and whose orders you should follow!" He said through his gritted teeth.

Fisting his hand, he tried to suppress his anger but he couldn't. He walked back to his seat slowly, as he continued to suppress his raging anger.

He realized quickly that he needs to drain someone, to make his anger vanish. He was about to call his subordinate to get a slave to drain her blood from her warm body. But before he was able to call him, he suddenly heard a few gasps. He rapidly followed the line of sight of his men. That's when he saw her.

His soon-to-be wife. She looked too beautiful to see. He didn't notice his fangs disappeared and his eyes turned blue from red.

As she walked across the carpet her beauty was complemented by her dress. It had an A-line neck dress with a low cut, that reached her breasts. As it's off-shoulder it revealed her snow-white skin to the eyes of the men. Her half sleeves made her hands look more slender than usual. The upper part of her dress hugged her body like a ruched bodice. The back of her dress was designed with Tea-length making her back look more beautiful. Men looked at her with awe, a few men stared at her longer than usual which earned an angry growl from William Maximus. Hearing his growl all the werewolf men lowered their heads, seeing this action from werewolves, the vampires quickly understood that they should keep their eyes away from Adira.

Even before when he was engaged to the prime minister's daughter, he never felt any kind of love or lust for her. But to his soon-to-be wife.... He felt like kidnapping her from here and hiding her from the whole world. He wanted to spend every damn second fucking her and claiming her as his.

Meanwhile....

Adira reached the main table somehow.

"Adira, Your soon-to-be husband," William said.

"Zaros Orpheus Velorine," he said walking towards her in his husky voice.

Adira felt her heart skip when she heard his voice ringing in her ears. The next thing he did gave a shock to her death.
