The Rejected Luna Queen novel Chapter 69

Alpha Bane's POV

Some Days Later

It was a day to the festival and I prepared to head over to Aurora's Pack. I took a look at my clothes which hung in the wardrobe, thinking of the particular one that I was going to wear.

I had a black suit that I always donned on very special occasions but somehow, I wanted a piece of clothing that'll make me feel very free. I also wanted nothing elaborate as I felt looking casual and simple would fit me best.

After all the things that had happened, the last thing I wanted was attention. If it were possible to be there and out without anyone else noticing me except Aurora, I'd have done just that.

But I knew that it wasn't possible, yet with a dress so informal, I was bound to escape a few eyes for sure.

I grabbed a Skye blue t-shirt that hung in my wardrobe and tossed it on the bed. Then I picked out a pair of black jeans trousers and also placed them on the bed, just below the place where I had dropped the t-shirt.

I stepped back a bit and looked at the combination and it was so nice. I loved it already, even when it hadn't touched my body. I knew the exact footwear that was fit for the occasion too; my lovely black sneakers. They felt so comfy each time I put them on.

"Alpha Bane," Donald called out, gently opening my door without even knocking. Everything is set and we're ready for you now."

"Is that why you can't simply knock before coming in? Are you out of your mind?"

"I'm sorry, my Alpha. I was in a hurry to pass the message and I forgot. My apologies, my Alpha."

"Thank you for the information," I said to him before resuming what I was doing earlier.

I quickly put on the trousers and fastened them with my thick, brown leather belt. Then I wore the t-shirts and the pair of sneakers and I was ready to go.

I walked to the mirror to look at myself one last time before travelling, and I couldn't help the smile that appeared on my face. I was pleased with what I beheld. A handsome man, indeed!

I walked out of my room, and my guards who were just outside the door, waiting for me to finish with my dressing followed me behind as I walked to the carriage.

On my way, I saw my father, coming out of his room and walking in my direction and so I had to halt to know what he wanted to say to me.

"Go well, son," he said as soon as he got close to me. "Don't worry about the Castle, I'll take very good care of it as I did for so many years."

"Thank you father," I replied, so sure of his capabilities. I even felt he'd do a better job than I've been doing since I became the Alpha as I knew that I'd never been able to match the standards that he set in the Pack. He was a living legend. "I'm sure you'll do just that and more. It's not in doubt at all."

"You honour me with your words, son," he remarked. "What about Aurora? Are you going to have a chat with her when you finally get to see her right there in her Pack?"
