I couldn’t believe my reflection in the mirror. I had asked the stylist to color my hair blonde temporarily. I also wore lenses to hide my real eye color before they arrived. It wasn’t normal to have lilac color eyes and silver hair among the humans. I still remember how those girls stared at me when I was working in the restaurant and made fun of my natural hair and eye color.
Tonight’s event was important and there would be media, too, so I didn’t want to look abnormal between them.
“Are you ready, Luna?” Caleb asked, knocking on my door.
“Luna? Isn’t your name Matilda?” Sheena, the stylist asked, her brows creased.
“That’s my brother. He has liked to call me Luna since childhood. He has been calling me Luna ever since we were little. It’s my nickname,” I giggled, lying to them.
“Aww, that’s so sweet,” Kathy, her assistant spoke sweetly.
‘Caleb, there are humans around. Please, call me by my name,’ I told him through the link.
‘Oh, Goddess. Why is my brain not working today? Why do I keep forgetting that I’m in the town and not in our pack?” He sounded sad and tired.
‘Maybe it’s because you’re missing my bestie,’ I teased him.
‘Can I bring her with me from the next time? Please…?’ He pleaded. The poor guy was really missing his mate.
‘Sure, I will also get her company. I get bored when he is away working! I would ask Prescott and I was sure that he wouldn’t have any issue.
From the next time, whenever I visited the town, I would have the company of my twins, too. The due date that Lila had given me was just one week away.
“Are you satisfied with your look, Ma’am?” Sheena asked.
“Please, call me Matilda. I’m in love with it. Thank you so much,” I thanked both of them before grabbing my

Caleb was pacing around the room impatiently. When our eyes locked, he was going to bow to me but I threw my arms at him and pinched him slightly to bring his mind back to the town which was wandering around Serena.
“I’m your sister, that’s what I told them so you better not act like Beta for tonight,” I whispered in his ear before. pulling myself away.
“You’re looking so pretty, Lu… Matilda,” he smiled at me and then, looked at my stylist and her assistant who were still watching us, probably to say goodbye but then, I realized that they would also come to the event. They were invited as well so I asked them to come with us but she told me that she had booked a cab which was on the way already.
I sat in the passenger seat and Caleb drove us to the venue. We talked about how this event would help us recover from the loss we recently faced because of that bi tch. Her event wasn’t farther from our venue, it was, just a 15-minute walk’s distance. Caleb showed me her venue from the outside.
I decided to drop in there after our event ended. I had to meet her and tell her about our mate bond to make her back off.
The event hadn’t begun yet. As I met Prescott’s eyes, he checked me out from head to toe while walking toward me, mouthing beautiful and shaking his head while exhaling through his mouth.
*F ucking smoldering hot,’ he complimented me and kissed my lips, leaning closer to me and holding my waist.
‘Seems like you missed me too much,’ I smirked, looking into his misty grey eyes deeply.
“You have transformed into a completely different person. I almost didn’t recognize you until I sniffed your scent,” he remarked, making me giggle. Suddenly, the flashes of the camera made me frown. I was wondering why they were taking our pictures until I realized that I was the CEO’s wife and then only I smiled at them.
Prescott posed for the camera, holding my waist and keeping his face closer to mine, his chin touching the side of my cheek. I put my hand on his chest and smiled at them.
“You guys make a lovely couple.”
“They look perfect together.”

“Oh my gosh, she is so pretty.”
“I’m sure their kids will look as gorgeous as their parents.”
“Such a cute couple.”
“They look like a power couple. They’re oozing confidence and love.”

A few reporters and the people from the crowd complimented us. I also wondered whom our kids would take after. My eyes fell on those girls who were shamelessly gawking at my mate and I felt jealousy rearing its ugly head in my heart.

“Let’s begin the event.” Prescott led me toward our seat and pulled out my chair for me. He helped me in sitting. and then, gave me a glass of juice.
I didn’t even know that I was thirsty until I had the juice. I had eaten in the car so I wouldn’t eat like I had been starved for days amongst the humans.
After Prescott gave his speech and introduced the footwear and makeup products. He did let the media ask him questions about the products before starting the fashion show. They had kept the new collection of clothing a secret. It was a limited edition so it would sell out within a blink of an eye.
The beautiful models started walking on the ramp, wearing amazing outfits and shoes. The collection was so pretty that I wanted every item in my wardrobe. The designers had worked really hard for this. Prescott introduced every designer and acknowledged their hard work in making everything so perfect.
A few of them sent flying kisses in Prescott’s way shamelessly. I had to restrain myself from killing them. How dare they flirt with my mate right in front of me even after knowing that he was married and his wife was present there?
*Calm down, love. My eyes are on you only,’ Prescott’s soothing voice rang in my mind and I blushed. Even while working and being surrounded by hundreds of people, his eyes were on me. I locked my gaze with him and realized that he didn’t even bother to look at those models even though it was his
event.
‘They should be only on me. You’re f ucking mine,’ I said possessively, crossing my arms across my chest.
“Sir has asked me to give you this,” Caleb said, giving me the plate of a sandwich and fruit salad on the side.
He was so thoughtful and caring. I wondered how he managed to do everything at once. Being a good husband

and the CEO of such a big brand…

“I have a surprise for you tonight. We will leave as soon as this show ends and the celebrity’s interview ends,” he told me and my eyes shone with excitement.
I would be lying if I said that I wasn’t looking forward to tonight. I finished my food and got up to use the washroom.
When I was a few feet away from the washroom, I heard a few women talking to each other.
“He is so hot, I’m so jealous of his wife.”
“I wish he would have been a bachelor.”
“He might be a bachelor soon. Women’s beauty tends to dull after becoming a mother. She would lose her charm but he won’t and then, he would lose his interest in him. Then, he might get single again.”
I felt nauseous after hearing their nasty comments so I immediately opened the door and all of them looked at me with paled faces but I ignored them and locked the door behind me before throwing up.
