Be My Mate

Sabrina's POV

"Ladies and Gentlemen, The Moon Goddess." Evan announces as I walk in. Draped in a silky red that hugged my body, I walked past everyone once again but only this time, they made way for me.

Each person I walk past would bow in respect. Not sure if it's because of my family or position. It could be that they don't want to be hanging up almost to the ceiling like our dear friends.

"Let the celebrations begin." I say once I make it to my family, turning to face the crowd. The crowd goes back to their loud chatter and laughs, quickly forgetting the hanging men.

"Sabrina, please. Let them down, I think we all get the idea." My mother tells me, not being one to forget as blood drops on the floor but I shake my head no.

"They will stay up for the remainder of the night. Every time someone gets an idea to attack this family, this image will be burnt in their heads as a reminder of what happens if they carry it out." I say looking at my mother.

I look up at everyone, having changed clothes and looking fresh. Aiden was slouched and looking grim, with a fresh suit. I can understand how he is feeling. That is his family and he loved them, he loved them and it is never easy to lose a loved one but actions have consequences, which brings me right back.

"We need to stop being nice. We tried it and look where it got us? We are wolves for goddess sake, the ruling family! Which monarch have you ever heard of that has been disrespected and attacked the way we have? Going soft is definitely not the way." I say before looking back at my mother.

Hunter nods his head before taking a sip of his amber colored drink.

"Sabrina is right." Hunter says. Every one waiting for him to continue with an old story about his struggles but that's all we get from him.

"Sabrina, it is time." Evan mindlinks me. Saving me from another complaint from my mother, I let them know it was time.

I turn to face the crowd as my family walks off the podium to give me space. Three elders join me.

One holding a staff that I was introduced to earlier when I first came to the heavenly realm.

The second one holding a shiny rock.

third one holding a book that looked old
