The Perfect Luna
Chapter 56: The Voting
Maya was the first one to leave the circle and join her Alpha’s side.
“I plead allegiance to The Pearl Moon pack and Alpha Riannon Michaels!” she declared loudly. Tatiana and Aria were next, followed by many others.
“I plead allegiance to The Silver River pack and Alpha Brayden Thorn,” the elite warriors announced one by one. Almost all of them, yet not all.
One by one, people were choosing their side and soon two groups were standing in front of each other.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) It was more or less the way she expected it. At the moment, her crowd was much bigger than her ex’s, but that was a given, since they were on the land of her old pack. Not everyone was present here and she knew that it was only the beginning.
However, Brayden was getting gloomier and gloomier with each person who did not choose him. It probably played very differently in his head. He never lost anything in his life before and now it was starting to look like a pattern for him.
“Thank you for making your choice,” Riannon smiled when everything was over, looking
at the people in front of her, “I know this is not an easy situation. And I am still grateful for the
years I spent as your Luna. Our ways part now, but you will always remain in my heart. And I
want you to know that I will not hold this against you.”
Brayden wanted to say something as well but changed his mind at the last moment.
“I think we are done here,” he announced dryly and then turned to his people, “Pack your bags. We’ll be leaving this place today for the old Silver River packhouse.”
The pack was bustling with people saying their goodbyes to each other. No matter what was happening, they spent years as one pack and the breakup was hard for all of them.
Quite a few people were glaring at Roxy, feeling like she was the one to blame for everything that happened.

Men and women were coming up to Riannon to say their goodbyes and words of respect even if they were leaving with Brayden. And she made sure to thank each of them, at the same time letting them know that her doors would always be open for them.
It was a victory. And everyone knew it. Her new pack members were congratulating her, happy to stay under her wing.
Soon, however, the crowd dissipated, leaving just two small groups present. Brayden’s
and hers.
“I hope you are happy,” her ex said spitefully, “We are no longer the strongest pack out
“Strength is not only about the size, Bray,” Riannon parried, “I have to look at a bigger picture here. And the safety of my people comes first.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?” he asked through clenched teeth.
“It means that you brought a wolf in sheepskin to our pack,” she turned to Maya and motioned for her to give her the folder that Gideon gave her, “However funny that sounds.”
“How threatened are you by a simple omega?” he scoffed and she let out a sigh as she did not expect any better of him.
