"Papa, I'm so glad you're here," she whispered, tears rolling down her eyes.
"So am I. And I'm so happy that you are safe. If Alpha Draco hadn't come looking for you and eventually saved you, I don't know what I would've done. The heavens has blessed me for this day. We are finally reunited."
She could see tears gathered in her father's eyes, holding down his wrinkled cheeks. She was extremely happy to see him alive and well.
"Yes, Papa," she sniffed. "I'm happy to see you're doing alright. How did all this happen? How come you're here tonight?"
"When Alpha Draco found you, he called me and said I can come and see you. I've been worried sick, thinking about what that merciless rogue did to you. I'm so glad to know you are alright and well."
"Yeah, Well, you know me, Papa. I can survive anything."
"You are tough," he agreed. "Just like your mother."
Her mother. She missed her so much to the point that Anastasia even craved her dreams about her mother. She wished the woman would show up even just once in a while. All of a sudden, something caught her eyes.
"Amanda?"
The old woman came into the room, crying in tears. She quickly hugged her. "Hello, darling. I'm so happy to know you're okay."
"So am I. How have you been?"
"Better than you," she chuckled. "You're the one I should be asking. I am grateful your father was able to tell us information about what happened. Alpha Draco did the best he could to save you and we are all so proud of him."
"It's her we should be proud of," Alpha Draco stated, looking down at his little mate with a look of pride in his eyes. "She saved me."
"Luna!" Someone called.
Anastasia glanced towards her right to see Edward and the rest of the guys, looking at her with smiles on their faces. They all looked so happy to see her once again. But then someone walked around from behind them revealing a very beautiful and well looking Wendy.
"Wendy?"
"Hello, Luna," she smiled.
Anastasia was happy to see her looking so pretty and well but she was confused. How was she out of the dungeon? "What happened?"
"Wendy is innocent," Beta Edward said.
"Then who is the culprit?"
There was a moment of silence before he said, "Jenny."
"Jenny?" She repeated with shock. She would never think Jenny could betray her like this.
"She had the same tattoo of a werewolf with wings on her back. When we searched her room, we found hidden letters from Marcus. They had been conspiring to kidnap you from the very beginning."
"No..."
Jenny, of all people, betrayed her. How could something like this happen? That explains the reason how Marcus got inside the mansion and still managed to escape the dungeon and take her away from home. That sick rogue sure did know how to make ways to plan his revenge.
"Don't worry, Luna," Edward said. "She's imprisoned and so is Marcus, far away from here. They won't be able to escape anymore."
Anastasia pursed her lips, small tears pooling in her eyes. "It's nice to see all of you again," she mutter under her breath .
Within a moment, all The guys ran to hug her, lifting her off the ground in their moment of joy. Anastasia chuckled. Everyone seemed so happy to see her.
"You look more beautiful than ever, Luna," Beat Edward said, giving her a bright grin.
"Don't flatter me, Edward."
"A Beta never lies, Luna."
As they put her down, Anastasia lightly groaned in pain. "Ouch."
"You're wounded," Thomas commented, looking at her wounds.
"Yes, but.. they still hurt."
"It'll heal soon enough," Alpha Draco's deep voice spoke, he was already beside her, towering over her small frame.
"Soon?" She asked. "Wounds take too long to heal for a normal human like me. I'm not like the rest of you. I'm no wolf."
"But you are," her father said.
Anastasia looked at him with shock. "What are you saying, Papa?"
"You're one of us." Alpha Draco answered, holding so much truth in his voice.
"You're a half blood, Ana. A half human half wolf," her father explained. "Your mother is a werewolf and I was no one but a mere human when she met me. I'm sorry that you have to know this just now. Your mother.. she wanted me to keep you away from this world. She is a rogue and she didn't want you to be an outcast too."
Anastasia could not believe her mother was a rogue too. Just like Marcus was. If her mother had been alive, she'd be considered a rogue too. But they did their best to protect her and keep her safe. She wished her mother was here to tell her everything about how she became a rogue.
"Papa.. i can't believe it."
"There's a reason you are mated to a werewolf. And an Alpha, no less. The Moon Goddess paired you with a powerful werewolf for a reason."
Anastasia turned to look at Alpha Draco who was already kneeling down on one knee in front of her. She gasped in surprise. "Draco.."
"Baby doll," he began. "When I first saw you, I know i was no one but a stranger in your eyes. But even then I never gave up hope that You will learn to love me. You were taken away from me once and I will never let it happen again. I promise, today and til the end of my days, I will love and protect you. My luna, my baby doll, the mother of my future pups, will you marry me?"
Anastasia chuckled with tears. "Marry you?"
"Isn't this how they do it in the human world?"
Anastasia sniffed. She found it sweet to know he was putting effort in making her feel this kind of romance in real life. One which she never thought she'd get to experience. "Yes, Alpha Draco. I will marry you," she answered finally.
"Yas!" With joy, he jumped up to hug her, lifting her off the ground, swirling around with delight.
When she got down, Alpha Draco kept kissing her face, eyes, cheeks and nose. "Stop it," she giggled. Looking down at her arms, she noticed the bandages that covered her wounds were already removed because of Alpha Draco's sudden joy. She removed her other bandages, surprise written all over her face. Her wounds were gone.
