Kidnapped and Rejected – The Return of Alpha’s Luna by Moon Claw

Chapter 188

Announce whom she would marry.

But she hadn’t decided yet!

“Hold on a second.” Janet frowned. “What if I can’t decide within these two weeks?”

“Then you make up your mind quickly.”

Casper crossed his arms and said:

“You saw how they were like out there. They can’t stay in the same room peacefully for 2 minutes. I

think 2 weeks is the longest time that they can keep things civil without turning this into a complete

war.”

Balvina added, “And a deadline helps you as well. You can’t swing back and forth between these two

men forever. The longer you wait, the more pain it will cause you.”

Janet groaned.

She knew that Casper and Balvina were right.

She couldn’t hide from this forever.

But it was so frustrating having to decide something so big so hastily.

“Are those two men my only options now? Do I have to choose between the two of them?” she grunted.

“OK, let’s just say there is somebody else you like, and you want to choose him. Then that poor guy

has to face the rage of both Daran and Westin. No man can handle the pressure like that,” Casper said

with a shrug.

“So now what? I am trapped with them? What if I enjoy being single? You ever think about that?

“Hey calm down.”

Balvina patted her shoulder, “We just want you to make the announcement. Pick one

guy for the time being and kick the other one out of the picture, so that their fight won’t develop into a

war. If later you discover that you don’t want to be with the guy

you chose anymore, it is perfectly fine. This is not a one–time deal.

That sounded reasonable.

But then Janet started to panic.

She was really facing this decision right now-

Between Daran and Westin.

Who was the one?

“Whom do you think I should go for?” Janet raised her head, looking at Casper and Balvina helplessly.

Casper burst out laughing, “You want my dating advice? You wouldn’t even listen to my fashion advice!

And now you are letting me pick your husband?”

“That is because you have terrible taste in fashion,” Janet rolled her eyes.

“Well. If you ask me, I think you should go for Daran.” Balvina said, “I know he is a jerk but at least he is

a werewolf. Marrying him means that you can stay at home. If you choose Westin, who knows where

he will take you and where the hell his homeland is.”

Janet sighed.

That was true.

Back in Grace Ruin, Westin already asked her to go to the Lycan’s land once.

She didn’t want to leave her family and friends.

“But Daran is so mercurial.” Casper snorted, “One minute he likes you, the next he throws you under

the bus. At least Westin is strong enough to protect you.”

“See?”

Janet spread her hands, “You two can’t even reach an agreement. How am I supposed to do it?”

“You are so tensed, girl. You need to relax.”

Balvina rubbed her shoulders and said:

“Let your heart tell you what to do. Those two weeks are for these two men to woo you. Enjoy being

chased by the most powerful men on earth. Not all girls have that kind of privilege.”

Janet let out a sigh internally.

Privilege?

Or should she say disaster?

“So when do you need me to make the announcement?” she asked.

“The sooner the better,” Casper said. “We were hoping at the dinner party, tonight, in front of all

members and guests. I will first welcome you back to our pack and then you can say the words.”

Janet took a deep breath and stood up, “Well then… I better get ready for my big night.”

She left the dining hall and headed back to her old bedroom.

The bedroom looked exactly as she left it. There was even a bunch of fresh flowers on her nightstand,

sending a pleasant aroma into the air.

Maids were expecting her in the room.

They curtseyed to her when she came in and said briskly, “Welcome back, Princess. Janet. Everyone

misses you back home.”

“Thank you.” Janet smiled, “I want to get ready for the party tonight.”

“Certainly.”

The maid opened the door to the closet, “Alpha Casper just had the designers bring over a couple of

new dresses. If there is nothing you like here, we will have the stewards run down to the mall

immediately.”

A racket of shiny new dresses lay in her closet.

One dress caught Janet’s eyes.

It was a floor–length, emerald–green evening gown.

It had a fitted bodice with intricate silver beadwork that extended down the waist, creating an elegant

and eye–catching pattern. The skirt flowed gracefully, creating a slight train.

“I like this one,” Janet pointed at the dress.

“Great choice, princess.” the maid took down the gown for her, “And what about your hair and makeup?

Any thoughts?”

“I can handle it myself. Thank you.”

The maids helped her slip into the gown and then exited, giving the room back to her.

Janet sat down behind the dresser and took out her makeup kit.

She went for a soft, smokey–eye look with a champagne tone. A touch of winged eyeliner added a hint

of drama.

She put on a bold red lip gloss, perfectly complementing the green of her gown.

As for the hairstyle, she kept it simple with loose, glamorous waves that fell gently around her

shoulders.

The final touch was a silver drop earring.

When everything was done, she heard chatters and music coming from downstairs. Looked like the

party was about to begin.

Janet picked up her skirts and headed to the dining hall on the ground floor.

The lobby was filled with dressed–up guests.

Many knew that this party was thrown for Janet, and they all wanted to be here for the Blood Moon

Pack’s heroine.

As Janet gracefully made her way down the marble staircase, all eyes were drawn to her

simultaneously.

A round of applause broke out in the lobby. Everyone was cheering with her name:

“Princess Janet!”

“Gamma Janet!”

“Welcome back home!”

Janet smiled and waved at the enthusiastic crowd.

Two tall figures emerged from the crowd and walked up to her in long strides. They arrived by her side

almost at the same time.

They each held a hand of hers, Daran with her right hand, and Westin with the left. “You look stunning

tonight, Janet,” Daran stared deeply at her.

“You have ALWAYS looked stunning, Janet, not just tonight,” Westin said with a charming smile. “May I

have the pleasure of sitting with you tonight? I want to tell you more about my homeland.”

“I got a message from Riverside Pack. Do you want to know what has happened back home? I can tell

you over dinner,” Daran said hoarsely.

Westin raised a brow, “Riverside Pack isn’t her home.”

“At least she cares about the Riverside Pack more than the Lycan’s homeland.”

“That is it. Stop,” Janet hissed.

She shook off both of their hands and picked up her skirt again, “I will be sitting with my brother, the

host of tonight’s party.”

She walked away from them and marched right into the dining hall.

There were at least 50 guests here tonight, sitting along the long table. Casper and Janet sat in the

center, with Daran and Westin on the opposite side.

When everyone took their seats, Casper stood up and clinked his glass with a silver

spoon.

All chatters quiet down immediately. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Thank you.”

All guests raised their glasses and cried, “To Princess Janet!

Janet smiled and drank up the first glass of wine with everyone.

People gasped.

Their face lit up with excitement.

“To Luna Balvina!” they shouted.

After the second glass, Casper placed his hand on Janet’s shoulder, “Now Janet. would like to say a

few words.”

Janet took a deep breath and stood up.

Now was the time.

She could feel two sharp gazes coming from across the table.

Both Daran and Westin were staring at her intensively.

“Thank you, Casper.”

She said.

An astonished gasp could be heard around the table.

Then there was a sharp noise of chairs scratching against the wooden floor.

Daran and Westin jumped up simultaneously.

“WHO IS THAT?!” They cried out at the same time.
