Reborn- His Scarlett Moon

Everybody was bustling around our tribe, making sure everything was perfect for the All Alpha meet. My father had put me in charge of the preparations, and I was determined to make sure everything went smoothly, even though I did not like the Alphas coming into my tribe. Specifically Tristan as the present president.

I knew how each one of them were. And I knew that they were all troubles waiting to brew.

My dear Midnight was by my side, helping me with the arrangements. We understood the importance of hosting a successful All Alpha meet as royalties. And with Ryan attending the event this time, I wanted to make sure everything was perfect.

I couldn’t help but feel nervous at the thought of seeing Ryan again. We had met only yesterday yet I couldn’t get him out of my mind. I have been daydreaming since then, already hyping up our next meeting. But as the princess of my tribe, I had to maintain my composure and act dignified around him.

As the day commenced my nerves began to escalate. I wanted to make a good impression on Ryan, but I also knew that my responsibilities as the princess of the tribe had to come first. Midnight reassured me that everything would be fine, but I couldn’t help but worry. To add on top of that her flirty suggestions towards Ryan. I knew they were innocent jokes but I couldn’t help but feel jealous.

Finally, the main gates to our tribe were opened. The werewolf tribe was bustling with activity as werewolves from all over gathered to attend the event. They poured in great numbers along with their kings.

It was no less than a big trade fair with everyone laughing, chatting, buying and eating stuff.

I took a deep breath and focused on my duties, making sure everything ran smoothly.

And then I saw him – Alpha Ryan. He looked just as handsome as I remembered from our secret rendezvous yesterday, and my heart skipped a beat as he approached me. I tried to maintain my composure, but I couldn’t help but feel nervous yet happy around him.

I felt my heart race as  Ryan leaned in closer to me, his warm breath tickling my ear. His deep voice sent shivers down my spine as he whispered,

” Everything looks great. Ummm, you know it’s my first time here, officially. Can you show me around your tribe a little? ”

I was staring back at him like stupid.

Midnight’s pinch from the back brought me back. Not to mention her kick.

” Ummm, yeah! Yeah! Sure thing. Why not! ”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

I felt Alpha Ryan’s hand on the small of my back as he leaned in close, his lips almost brushing my ear. “You look absolutely stunning Sherizad,” he murmured before grabbing my hand.

I quickly moved away from his grip and looked around.

I did not know where Ryan was coming from but in my culture it was highly inappropriate for unrelated persons to hold hands. But obviously his culture was a lot more relaxed. He never hesitated while carrying me or hugging me, starting from the point of our first meeting.

I never reacted before because we had been alone. I was a liberal in my own thought process.

But things were different in my tribe.

I did not want everybody to start gossiping about us even before we had actually started dating. Or confessed or something like that.

I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks as I turned to face him. “Thank you, Alpha Ryan,” I replied, trying to keep my voice steady despite the way my heart was pounding in my chest.

He chuckled, his blue eyes sparkling mischievously. “Please, call me Ryan like you do Sherizad. We’re not at court yet, after all and nobody is watching. ”

His sharp eyes had not missed the fact that I was looking out for unwanted gaze.

I couldn’t  help but smile at his playful tone. “All right, Ryan,” I said, enjoying the way the name rolled off my tongue effortlessly.

We fell into a natural easy conversation, talking about everything from the weather to the upcoming All Alpha meet. I found myself laughing at his jokes and feeling more at ease than I have in weeks.

“Welcome to our tribe, Ryan,” I said as we approached the entrance of the gypsy-like  camp. “I hope you enjoy your visit.”

“Thank you, Sherizad,” he replied with a warm smile. “I’m looking forward to experiencing your tribe’s unique culture and traditions.”

As we walked through the winding streets, Ryan asked me about the different tents and buildings we passed. I explained to him the purpose of each one, from the fortune-tellers’ tents to the council chambers.

“It’s impressive how your tribe has managed to preserve all these ancient traditions,” Ryan remarked as we approached the grand palace at the center of the camp. It was a palace yet it too was a tent.

“Thank you,” I said, feeling a sense of pride in my tribe’s history. “We believe that it’s important to honor the traditions of our ancestors and pass them down to future generations.”

As we entered the palace, Ryan’s eyes widened in amazement at the intricate carvings on the woods and colorful murals adorning the walls.

“This place is incredible,” he said in awe. “The attention to detail is remarkable.”

“Yes, it’s a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of our ancestors,” I replied. “They believed that beauty and art were just as important as strength and power.”

As we made our way through the palace, we encountered several members of the royal family and other important figures in the tribe. They greeted us warmly and exchanged pleasantries with Ryan.

“It’s an honor to meet you, Alpha Ryan,” one of the council members said. “We’ve heard so much about your leadership and strength.”

“I’m humbled by your words,” Ryan replied with a gracious nod. “I believe that we can learn from each other and work together to build a stronger future for all werewolves.”

As we stepped outside we heard the trumpet blow, Ryan turned to me with a smile. It was a signal that the Alphas were being called inside and that the meeting was about to commence in the main courtroom.

“Thank you for showing me around your tribe, Sherizad,” he said. “I can see that it’s a special place, filled with rich history and tradition.”

“It’s my pleasure, Alpha Ryan,” I replied. “We’re honored to have you here as our guest.”

I had completely switched to my official mode and Ryan smirked at my behavior once again.
