"I've found my mate, and it looks like I'll be marrying her soon," Arthur said suddenly in the middle of the Shadow Moon Pack's family dinner.
Jhonas the Elder just nodded as he chewed on the bite of food he had just eaten.
Meanwhile, Arthur's words were suddenly interrupted by a woman who looked like a socialite as she played with her beautiful blood-red nail polish.
"It's good that you've finally found a mate, so your status as Alpha in this pack will be even stronger, but..." the woman said while drinking the orange juice in front of her, then continued her conversation,
"You know that our pack is the best in Alaska, so your mate must also be the best, her bloodline, her social status and her personality."
Arthur just sighed, "She's the best in the pack!"
Sofia, Arthur's sister, said, "Oh yes, well, introduce him to us soon, won't you, Elder Jhonas?"
Arthur nodded, "Of course, I'll bring her to dinner tomorrow," he said confidently.
Alpha Arthur could have guessed that his mother and sister would probably refuse because he knew how they both glorified the position of social strata in the neighbourhood.
Besides, the woman he would introduce this time was from the lower class, except for his grandfather, Elder Jhonas, who was the only man in his family with a wise attitude.
His mother and sister live a very indulgent and glamorous life, often travelling aimlessly abroad to show off their luxury among the Luna socialites.
However, Elder Jhonas constantly reminds them that they must live as usual because the interests of the pack are more critical than theirs. However, they do not care and rarely listen to the Elder's advice.
"But I wonder who the woman is that Moon Goddess chose for you. Tomorrow night, you must fulfill your promise to bring her to meet all of us, and do not delay the wedding reception," said Elder Jonas.
"This woman is still in the same pride as us, Elder!" said Arthur.
They immediately fell silent, looking at Arthur curiously, "Who? Clara? Delta's cousin is in this pack, and then mom is a little agr..." Elena had not finished speaking, and Arthur immediately cut off his mother's words.
"No, I don't like her at all, she's just like you guys: too glamorous a life. I'm looking for someone simple," explained Arthur.
"Then who?" pressed Sofia, who was a little annoyed with her brother Arthur.
"Camille!" replied the Alpha.
Everyone was curious and had no idea who Arthur was talking about.
"The best Omega in our pack, her performance is very good and since she manages the Omegas all the clothing, food and shelter needs in our pack are so organized, isn't it good that as a Luna she is used to manage complicated things like that," Arthur explained, which immediately made his mother and sister react differently.
"WHAT?! of the rank Omega, My Goddes My Selena, Arthur, what will happen if all the packs know that the Luna candidate is not from the upper class, our pack could be underestimated!" said Elena a little angrily.
"Mother! The Moon Goddesses chose her for me, a fate we can't change, maybe it's a good sign for our pack in the future," Alpha Arthur said again.
"No, i strongly disagrees, there is no need to obey the orders of the Moon Goddes, destiny can still be changed, it might be okay to break the rules a little."
"Yes, I also agree with Mom. After all, there are still many single women in other packs from the upper ranks who are more suitable. Think again, Arthur. This is for the honor of our pack," said Sofia.
Arthur sighed heavily. He could already guess what the response of the two women would be.
It has been a very long time since Alpha Arthur liked Camille.
For a long time, he realized that Camille was his downfall. It was just that he hadn't dared to tell his family about it, partly because he was afraid that his mother and brother would oppose him, and rightly so.
"I agree," Elder Jhonas said suddenly.
"What do you mean, Dad?" Elena said with some emotion.
"Elena, mate, we cannot easily violate the destiny of the Goddess. You must also know the danger that will be for our pack. This time I agree with Arthur," explained Jhonas.
"Why do you agree?" asked Sofia.
"I know who the best Omega is, she is always the talk of the house pack because of her performance and discipline, it's just that I don't really know the names of the Omegas in our pack, but I know who it is, I think she fits Arthur," the Elder explained.
Arthur bowed respectfully in gratitude for his grandfather's support. As long as the Elder, the oldest leader of the Shadow Moon pack, agreed, Alpha Arthur would always fight for her.
Meanwhile, his mother and sister were still upset, grinning as they crossed their hands over their stomachs.
"If it weren't for Elder Jhonas' approval, I wouldn't want to see that woman sitting at our dinner table at all," Elena emphasized.
"Elena, let's not be selfish. Always remember what I said about the pack's interests outweighing your personal desires!" snapped Elder Jhonas to Elena, who was his daughter-in-law.
"If Alpha Roger were still alive, maybe Mom wouldn't be as arrogant as like now," said Arthur.
"If your father Roger were alive, he would agree with me!" Elena retorted and then stood up to take her daughter Sofia from the dining table.
Elder Jhonas just shook his head at his daughter-in-law's behaviour and gently rubbed Arthur's arm as if to give him the strength to be patient.
"Now go to Camille, and tell her that Elder Jhonas would like to meet with her tomorrow night, to discuss your wedding reception," said Jhonas.
Arthur nodded and smiled. Then, he finished his dinner, stood up, and bowed respectfully to the Elder.
Alpha Arthur excused himself to meet Camille at the C-pack building.
