Chapter 34
(Author’s POV)
“Are you sure, about me, wearing this, Nor?” Myra asked for Nora’s assurance one more time.
“You bet, Ra-ra.” Nora chimed. Then she walked up towards Myra’s bed, took the other dress and stuffed it inside the walking space for clothes, than she turned and commented “out of sight, out of mind. Chillax babe, now you don’t have any choice” and winked at her, blowing a kiss.
Myra didn’t say anything and just nodded, turning to look herself into the mirror, one more time. Even she can tell that Nora was right.
“Ohh yeah, see, I was so mesmerized by your look that I almost forgot. I came to tell you that… the stylist will arrive in an hour” Nora looked at the time and corrected herself, “Ohh now, its forty one minutes, so be prepared p>
After saying this, she walked off, feeling elated.
Myra sighed heavily feeling defeated. ’Nora really has become quite eloquent with her words p>
Soon, the stylist Carter arrived with his team. They dolled the two girls up according to their preferences and outfits. Nora was the star of the night, so her make over was exquisitely done, giving her the look of a showstopper. She was gleaming like the moon itself.
Myra, on the other hand, wasn’t much into cosmetic and stuff, so she opted for a no make-up look, the minimal the better. The stylist though reluctant at first, obliged afterwards. He wanted to give Myra a bold and sassy appearance. At the end, the stylist did some adjustments and was satisfied by the final result. He highlighted Myra’s eyes, adding a little beauty mark which complimented her overall demeanor.
Both Nora and Myra were all set and ready to rock the party. That’s when Sara arrived wearing a lavender colored tulle multi layered ball gown. There could only be one description for her, she looked like an Empress, ethereal and holy. After all she was the Luna of Moon Shine Pack, the biggest and strongest pack in the world.
As soon as Sara’s eyes landed on Nora she teared up a bit, sniffling she said, “Carter, you have done a splendid job p>
“Thank you for thinking of me for this job, Mrs. Everests. I am truly honored” Carter, though a renowned stylist, who have worked with numerous famous personalities was meek and humble in front of Sara.
Then Sara searched the room and saw Myra. She beamed at her, complementing wholeheartedly, “Myra dear, you are looking beautiful.” She was satisfied by both her daughter and goddess daughter’s look. Sara wiped her tears and exclaimed, “the banquet is about to start soon. Nora and Myra will be entering at the end, after all the guests’ have arrived p>
Both Nora and Myra nodded. Sara departed in a hurry as a mind link buzzed inside her. “I’ll get going then.” She signed off giving a breathtaking smile.
Myra gave Nora a sideways glance and asked, “I understand about you going to the party at the end, but why me p>
Nora popped a foxnut in her mouth, “Don’t know, maybe she didn’t want to make you feel uncomfortable.” Myra wobbled her head in understanding.
All the guests arrived and it was soon time for their entry. Nora’s hands were sweating from nervousness. Myra held her hands in hers calming Nora down, though she too was feeling anxious inwardly.
As the light dimed, they both walked downstairs, the spotlight tracing their every move. Each and every eye in the audience turned upwards, looking at them like they were celestial figures who were descending on earth.
The Everests’ were busy attending their respective guests when they all looked up simultaneously. Noah and Sara looked at the girls with pride.
Elio was with some of his college mates, when he gazed at the two figures walking down, he was spell bound by their presence. First, he looked at Nora and smiled but when he saw Myra, all dolled up in that red sheath dress, his pupils dilated unconsciously. His lips felt dry although he was having a glass of red wine.
Alaric was with the pack elders’ alongside Brave. When the girls appeared, both the twins were dazzled by them. They were happy as they saw their baby sister shining brightly and rightfully so. But when their eyes drifted behind Nora, they spotted Myra, walking elegantly. Both the brothers were feeling contrasting emotions.
Brave, though nonchalant most of the time, kept on gawking at Myra, his heart beating rapidly as a slight uncomfortable feeling hit him. He could feel that his insides were heating up all of a sudden. His heart doing some backflip.
As for Alaric, subconsciously, his eyes searched for Myra. When he caught a glimpse of her, Alex purred loudly within him. His Adams’ apple wobbled, his eyes turning dark. Alaric tried not to peer at Myra but was enchanted by her.
Lastly, Dion was waiting downstairs as he extended his hands to both the girls. Nora took his hand, but Myra skillfully avoided any physical contact with him, gracefully stepping aside. Dion’s eyes were on Myra all the time; he looked at her from head to toe. Though, he was disappointed that Myra avoided his touch, he was glad when he saw her wearing the dress he specifically chose for Myra.
Dion knew well about girls’ preferences from his playboy experience and when he saw Myra’s hesitation regarding the dress that day, he ordered all the dresses they picked. He was eager to see Myra in this dress, ’Moon Goddess, what am I going to do with this wolf of mine? She’s looking like a heavenly beauty, Aphrodite in human form.’ Her floral scent was intensely infiltering his senses, urging his keen desire to get close to her.
Dion led the two ladies to where Noah and Sara were, as they announced, drawing the attention of the attendees, “May we have your attention everyone. We are so glad that all of you took some time out from you busy schedules to join us today. I and my wife Sara, and the whole Everests family are delighted to announce that we have reunited with our one and only daughter. Let me introduce you to Nora Everests” Noah gestured for Nora to take his hand and Nora did that.
Everyone clapped in acknowledgement and congratulated respectively.
Sara continued, “It so happens to be our youngest’s birthdays, Nora and Elio, in about two hours” as she checked the time, it was ten. “Also, I would like to make a special announcement and for all of you, to meet someone special p>
All the people present there were curious by the sudden proclamation, as they waited for Sara to finish. “Myra, come here” she called out for her.
Myra was stupefied; her face said it all as the spotlight was on her now.
