Barely Breathing

Chapter 41: You are a sight to behold

'Her hair is still as fiery as the fire and so is her spirit. Her eyes, the same shade of moss green that tells a tale of bravery and brokenness combined. Like a rose defined by its beauty and thorns. And, so is her story.

She still looks the same. Nothing changed much just like her past that could never be altered. But as I looked at her, she has that glow that wasn't there before. I haven't seen her smile like that. Her eyes didn't usually shine - today's the brightest.

As I looked into the mirror, I see not a girl but a grown-up woman. I see not a weak rogue but a warrior with a strength incomparable. I see the scars of her soul but feel the pain no more.

I see the same Willow but in a different light. I smiled at my reflection.

I let down my wavy hair cascading below my waist. I am wearing a sleeveless halter neck dress in red that flows down just below my knees. It complements my hair and skin perfectly. In my head was a crown of flowers made by the twins.

I descended the stairs while humming my favorite song. And, into the forest where everyone was waiting for me.

It was night, the sky was lovely and serene even without the moon. Colorful lantern lights adorned the trees, serving as a guide unto the center of the forest. Petals of flowers laid on top of the snow-covered ground onto each step I thread. It was winter. Small snowflakes gently cascading, adding ambiance for this night.

Tonight will be the officiating ceremony of Xyrus and me as mates, and crowning me as the new Luna of Blood Moon pack.

I could hear a melody, singing and lights were getting brighter as I reached the meadow. Tash was waiting for me at the entrance of a beautiful arc with a curtain made of flowers and leaves.

"Willow, I am so happy for you." Tash hugged me and kissed me on the cheek. She handed me a bouquet.

"Wow, it's beautiful Tash." I chuckled. It was a bouquet of sunflowers.

"You are far more beautiful Willow." She smiled. "The alpha is waiting."

She parted the curtains of hanging flowers and leaves. And I stood in front of everyone. Elony was waving at me, beside her was Julian who gave me a salute.
