Chapter 50: Chapter 50

Hazel,

I asked flabbergasted, "What are you talking about? Can you tell me?" Granny explained calmly with a concerned expression on her face, "The Prophecy states that when a true angel will accept an underworld creature as a mate and will agree to stay with him in Underworld, living Heaven behind, only then the harmony will be generated and that couple together will rule the whole Underworld. There will be no creature who can be able to disrespect the order of the King and Queen. Now it is your choice, Hazel. Will you stay with Xander or do you want to return? No matter what your decision is we will never blame you." Xander was also looking at me with an anxious expression at that moment, I knew he was waiting for my decision.

I was silent but I already decided in my mind. So after a long pause, I replied confidently, "Of course, I will stay with Xander and I don't want to leave him alone in any situation." Granny replied with a smile, "I already knew you will choose it because you are born to change the fate of the underworld. Born to rule." Then she looks at others, ordered, "Prepare for the coronation of the ceremony. I want to crown Hazel as an official Luna tomorrow. There is no time to waste." Everyone immediately left the room and I could hear Damien's order even after they left the hall. It was only Granny and Xander, in the room. Granny walked towards me, hugged my shoulder with motherly affection, and then murmured, "I know Hazel that you will be a great queen. Thank you for making such a sacrifice for us." Then she also left following others. Xander was still silent, leisurely sitting on a comfortable sofa and observing every incident.

The moment I noticed I immediately walked towards Xander, taking long strides, and sat on the ground near his legs. Hanging my head lower, I murmured in a low choked voice, "Xander! Don't you want to ask anything? Why you are silent? I am sorry. I wanted to explain everything to you." Xander ignored all my questions and asked, looking at me, "Why did you decide to stay? Don't you think, it is right for you to return to your actual home?" I replied instantly, "Where is my actual home? I don't think Heaven is my home. Xander, my home is your house only. I don't want to" I couldn't continue, as warm tears started rolling down from my eyes. Xander's cold behavior towards me was unbearable for me. The moment Xander saw my tears, he no longer stayed cold and immediately pulled me on his lap from the ground, grabbing my wrist. "Shhh! Silly girl! Don't cry. Don't cry. I am not angry with you, don't cry, Hazel," he started confronting me while wiping my tears with his large warm hand. His expression was no longer cold anymore. But I couldn't control my tears, the moment I felt the warmth of his body, I started sobbing more intensely. He continued, "Alright, I am sorry. It was my mistake. Don't cry now. Don't you know, I cannot tolerate your tears?" While sobbing, I replied in an apologetic tone, "Sorry." He smiled charmingly and replied in his magnetic voice, "It's alright. I was not angry, I was just disappointed that you didn't even tell me." I explained immediately, "I wanted to but I didn't want to disrespect Rebeca." "Alright, now stop discussing this. But remember, don't you dare to hide anything from me in the future," Xander whispered while caressing my cheeks with his thumbs, looking at my eyes.

His thin lips were inches away from me, I immediately brushed my lips against his without giving him any chance to talk. He held the back of my head and running his fingers through my hair, started kissing me passionately. His sweet taste filled my mouth. After a long kiss, when our lips parted from each other, he leaned his forehead against mine and whispered, looking at me, "Thanks, Hazel. Thank you so much for staying with me." "I am never going to leave you alone, Xander," I replied with a smile. Then we both headed towards the dining hall. Though it was midnight, none got the chance to eat their dinner under that circumstances. It was that same familiar room and in the middle of the room was a long wooden table, surrounded by numerous chairs. Along with some of the pack members, Xander and I completed our dinner. After dinner, Xander said, "Love, I have to discuss something with Damien. Why don't you take some rest?" "It's alright. You go ahead. I will love to spend some time with Granny," I assured Xander with a smile. Xander nodded his head positively and left. Taking the stairs, I knocked at Granny's door. Granny replied instantly, "Come in." Entering insight the room, I found that there were Galaxy and Selene. Both of them respectively wished me. Granny asked in her motherly tone, "Ready to be the Luna of the pack?" With a smile, I replied, "No, Granny. I am nervous. I don't even know about my responsibilities." Granny replied, "Don't worry, dear. You will be the best Luna. I will teach you about your responsibilities." I nodded my head excitedly. The rest of the night, I spent with granny and learned about Luna's responsibility. I could feel Granny's energy. She possessed power but she was not very strong, it was might be for her age. It was almost 3'o clock in the morning when we three took our leave from Granny and headed towards our rooms. On the way, I asked Selene, "How are you? Are you feeling well?" She replied humbly, "Yes Milady. I survived only for you. Thank you so much. I will love to serve you as your loyal servant for my whole life." I replied with a smile, "No Selene. We are grateful to you. Without your help, we cannot escape. Now go rest both of you. See you tomorrow." We chatted for few more minutes. Then saying goodbye, we headed towards our rooms.

Xander was not in the room, so I laid down alone and after tossing and turning for some time, I fell into a deep sleep. When I woke up I found that Xander was not around me and it was clear that he hadn't come last night. With a little sigh, I headed to the bathroom. It was a big day of my life. I was While taking shower, I closed my eyes and murmured, "Rebeca, you are my only family member. Today I wish you can come here today." I knew it was impossible. Rebeca couldn't be able to come but I was expecting to see her after all she was my only guardian. When I came out of the shower, I found Selene and Galaxy, waiting for me with lots of stuff in their hands. I asked surprisingly, "What are these?" Galaxy replied casually, "These are for you Milady. Today we are going to make you a queen." After winking at me, Galaxy started her torture on me and Selene was Galaxy's obedient assistant. It was a long tiring process. I was dressed in a white floral gown like Cinderella along with matching diamond jewelery. Then after putting on some makeup we trio headed towards the garden. The gown was so heavy and huge for me that it was kind of impossible for me to walk. When I was struggling hard, I saw Xander in a blue tuxedo, standing in front of me with his devilish smile on his lips. His alpha aura was shining brightly. Seeing my pathetic condition, Xander chuckled out loud and exclaimed, "You are funny Hazel. Why are you fighting with your gown?" I roll my eyes, replied, "I am trying to walk. Cannot you see?" "Hmmm. Let me help you, my Luna," taking some steps forward towards me, Xander replied. Then with a swift motion, he scooped me up and started walking towards the garden. I asked in a serious tone, "Are all Werewolves shameless? Or it is especially you?" "Of course, I am special my love. After all, I am the Alpha," replied Xander with a smirk. I was blushing red. Though it was not the first time, I didn't know exactly why I blushed all the time around him. Both Galaxy and Selene followed us silently. When we reached the garden area, I found it was fully crowded and it was decorated beautifully. I got the sweet scents of different kinds of flowers also. Xander put me down exactly near the stage and we headed on the stage, holding our hands. Suddenly, in front of the crowd, exactly near the stage, I found a familiar figure, standing elegantly with a sweet smile on her face and she was talking with Granny and another middle-aged lady. It was none other than Rebeca. I was shocked to see her in front of me. I immediately yelled, taking a few steps towards her "Rebeca! I cannot believe my eyes. You are here."
