Chapter 56: Chapter 56

Cassandra's POV

I woke up to something softly touching my head and comforting me. I slowly opened my eyes. I stayed for a few moments trying to remember everything that happened yesterday.

I felt that there was a hand still touching my hair, so I calmly raised my head and looked at who was doing this. My eyes met his eyes. I kept looking at him for a few seconds before he spoke.

"You have a unique way of sleeping, Cassandra," said Wilson, "Look at the way I sleep."

What an embarrassment, damn it. I removed my hands and feet from above him to try to escape, but he pulled me back into his embrace.

"I'm sorry I thought I was hugging the pillow" I apologized to him as I tried to escape from his embrace but he didn't move

"It's okay from now on I can be your pillow because it wasn't a bad feeling" he told me to feel my face starting to burn with shame

"Can you leave me?"  I only asked him for a second and he left me

I stood next to the bed to find him looking at me with pleasure and he put on a smile that made him more handsome

I got dressed and went to the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror trying to calm myself down.  Why does it affect me so much?

'Because he's our buddy' said Darren, who seems happy to be with our buddy

'It's like you're not happy'

'I'm not happy'

'Liar, I'm you and we both know you're happy to be by his side' She said to stop contacting her and start my shower.

After I finished I went out to find Wilson had already changed his clothes and was sitting on the sofa

"Let's go have breakfast." He told me to follow him outside and we sat around the dining table to start eating

I know he's going to ask and I know I have to answer but I'm just not sure if I was ready and if his knowledge of the truth would change anything.

"So?" he said to me

" so what?"

Claire will come in a little while and she will stay here with you, and then in the evening you will be ready.

"Getting ready for what???"

"For the ceremony of entering the flock and declaring you a color," he said to me, to drop the thorn from my hand and look at him in shock.

"You heard me, is there a problem?"

"Of course, there is a problem. Have you ever seen a person who becomes a color and is wanted for an accusation by the council????"  Ask him

"Yes, we will see that day." He said to me while drinking his coffee indifferently, I tried to calm down a little

"Wilson," I whispered his name for the first time, as he looked at me with a sparkle in his eyes, indicating his admiration for it

"Wilson, please, don't be in a hurry," I told him, in a calm and pleading voice

"Don't beg like this and don't use my name as a tool for you, at least not in this matter" he told me

"You don't know anything, Wilson."

"After, I'll know everything Cassandra," he told me to let out a sigh of surrender

"I... I didn't... kill anyone" I told him

"I know, and even if I killed him, he must have deserved to be killed." He said to let out a small laugh

"You're really weird" I told him to smile at me

"It's not me alone and you too" he said, let's start laughing before I stop

"I... I just don't want anyone to get hurt because of me." I told him

"No one will get hurt because of you, Cassandra, not while I'm around," he told me. Let's hear a knock on the door

"Clare has come so we can meet in the evening," he said to me as he stood and went outside for only a moment, and I saw Claire entering.

"So what do we do now before evening approaches?"  you asked me

"I don't know" I told her

"Do you want to see something?"

"How do you say we go out?"

"I don't know, the alpha rejected the idea of you leaving the house not without him," she said to me with regret

"It's okay to watch something then." I told her to stand up and sit in the living room and start watching a program

Claire, do you have your phone?

" yes "

"Can I make a connection?"  I asked her to nod for me and give me her phone

"Thank you." I thanked her for pressing Nicholas's phone numbers, who answered after a ring

The story continues below

"Nicholas, it's me, are you okay? I mean about what happened yesterday," I said as I stood up to walk out of the living room.

"Of course he didn't hurt anyone in my flock so don't worry tell me about you are you okay?"

"Yes, for now, I mean, I don't know how to act. He wants to bring me into the herd. Is this not considered dangerous, as if he is declaring a coup against the council?"

"Sort of, but he's not the type who cares about the council and also he must have a plan from this or he will try to reveal the truth and that will make your name innocent" he told me

"Thank you, Nicholas, and I apologize for what happened again." I told him

"It's okay, Cassandra, take care of yourself" I hung up, standing up and thinking about his words. Will he really be able to reveal the truth??

I've been on the run for  years because I know if I get caught I'll be killed without even hearing my side of the story but now...

"Luna, are you okay?"  Claire's voice cut me off

"I'm fine, thank you for the phone and you can also call me Cassandra" I told her to smile and nod at me.

"You look prettier in the dress," said Claire, who was standing in front of me, after I put on the not too short white dress that she brought for me and left my hair loose.

"Thank you, shall we go now?" I said to her

"Yes, the alpha will come after..." I paused when the door to the room opened to reveal. Wilson looked at me and dressed me before putting on a side smile. He liked it.

Claire pulled back to keep looking at me

"What??? stop looking at me I'm feeling weird" I told him

" Why ??"

"Because I'm wearing a dress," I told him

"It suits you," he told me, as if I were to begin to be ashamed of his compliments

"Shall we go or not?"  I Saied to him

"Yes, let's go." He reached out for me to look at her for a long time, thinking

He is extending his hand to me This hand will lead me to another life and perhaps I will plunge him into the whirlpool of my fight with him

"You have a bad habit and a good habit at the same time," he told me to get me out of my thoughts

" What you mean???"

"You study and think about anything. It's a good quality when you're outside because that's how you protect yourself more but when you're with me it's bad Don't study anything with me I'll never hurt you and I won't make anything hurt you either... Just put your trust in me"  He told me to feel how true he was in his words, and I nodded to him and I grabbed his hand to intertwine our fingers together, which made sparks emanate all over my body.

We started walking to get out of the house and started walking for a while until we got to a big building. I think it was the hall. I heard Claire remember her.

We walked in to see the huge number of people inside. Wilson led me to the podium, so we could go upstairs. Wilson let my hand go to the middle of the podium.

"Thank you for meeting here tonight, and in order not to make it too long, let me make it short. Today, we will have a new person and also a color for this herd."

He and I came forward to stand with a large bowl between us

"You Cassandra, do you promise to protect this flock, to give your loyalty to it, and to do your best for the safety of this flock?" He asked me to look at him.

"Promise it," I replied

"Do you promise to lead this herd alongside the Alpha and protect your people and those who are weak?" he asked me again.

I'm not sure and I don't feel like I'll be able to drive him by your side It's hard to be Luna and there's still a bastard who wants to kill me At any moment I looked into Wilson's eyes who immediately discovered the fear in my eyes

"Just...trust." He whispered to me to gather my courage

"I promise," I replied with force

"Then let our blood bear witness to this promise," he said, cutting his wrist, letting the blood fall into the bowl before he gave me the knife.  is offline

I closed my mind so as not to receive too many ideas

"And now as the alpha of the Red Moon Flock, I declare you one of us and one of us," Wilson said, and everyone started to clap warmly. I looked at them before I let go of Wilson's hand to see that the wound had already disappeared.

"Hello, we met before, but we didn't know. I'm Max Peta and Wilson's best friend," said the person who had cut my way a few days ago trying to escape from Wilson, so it was Peta and Claire's companion.

"Hello" I greeted him

"My name is Linko Gamma and the leader of the warriors," said the person Wilson was talking to before I ran away.

"Welcome."

Should I be happy or should I continue to fear and worry??  What should I do ??

Why is life suddenly starting to smile at me???
