The Triplets' Fighter Luna

CHAPTER 003

The next few days went really fast before it was finally my 16th birthday and my parents were planning a huge fancy party in the ballroom.

I knew that they wanted to celebrate and so did a lot of people that I knew from the packs. Other packs that I was friends with. Just people that were scattered around near the castle, but we were all separated by schools. A lot of friends went to different schools and that was alright with me. I still got to see them. And they were all going to be here tonight.

Mom came to see how I was doing while I was getting ready and I was getting my hair and makeup done and she looked really proud to see me like this.

There were going to be a lot of people at this party that I didn't know. But that was just

politics. It had nothing to do with me.

As soon as my hair and make up was finished, I walked into my wardrobe and I got dressed into the floor length black mermaid style ball gown with a skin coloured under layer and black

lace over the bodice that went to where the mermaid bottom started on it. And the bottom

was pure black tulle with black silk on the ends of each layer of the tulle.

I put my strappy high heels on and I put on the matching black bracelet and earrings.

I walked back into my room and I looked at my reflection.

Honestly, I felt like I was looking at someone else in the mirror. Not myself. I felt really

strange.

Someone started knocking on the door as it opened and Avery walked in with Chloe, Violet and Ella.

"Oh my goddess. You look gorgeous." Violet said.

"Are you sure it's not too much? I mean, it feels a little tight around my thighs." I said.

"You look perfect." Ella said.

"Are you ready? Your mom sent me up here to get you. Everyone's here." Avery said.

I looked at myself in the mirror one last time before I nodded my head and we walked out of

my room.

We headed towards the ballroom and they needed to announce me properly as I entered the room and my friends were by my side.

They always promised that they would be because I wasn't as confident as a Princess should

But once the initial announcement was made, I felt better when people went back to talking to

people that they were already talking to.

I walked further into the room and my mom's best friend Lexie walked over to me.

"Sweetheart. You look absolutely beautiful." Lexie said, hugging me.

"Thanks aunt Lexie. You look beautiful too." I said.

"You girls, be sure to take care of her tonight. She needs to have a good time." Lexie said.

"Don't worry. We're all over it." Avery said.

My girls took me further into the room and I was looking around at the massive room that had hundreds of people in it.

Mom and my dads were all sitting up at their seats at the front of the room.

There was one empty seat left there for me. But that was only for when we sat down to eat dinner.

I could see my mother keeping an eye on me, but I knew that I would be alright with my friends.

I had to greet my guests and thank them all for coming, which was a massive effort because there were so many people here.

But suddenly I came across someone that I hadn't seen before.

A really handsome man that had been standing off to the side, not talking to anyone. Just watching me.

When he saw me watching him, he finally approached me and I felt my breathing hitch a little. He took my hand and kissed the back of it, as was proper etiquette in this situation.

"It's a pleasure to finally meet you Princess. My name is Lucas." He introduced himself.

"It's nice to meet you too. I'm sorry, but I don't believe I have met you before." I said.

"You haven't. I've only just moved here with my family. I will be starting at your school next week." He said.

"Well, that's really good to know." I said.

"I know that this might seem a little presumptuous of me, but would you like to go for a walk

with me?" He asked.

I looked at my friends who had taken a few steps away but they were all smiling at me. And I was a little nervous, but I looked back at him and his perfectly chiseled face with distinct cheekbones and beautiful eyes just sucked me right in. And the tuxedo just added to the

appeal. 

"Sure. I'd love to." I said.

So he held his arm out and I wrapped my arm around it and we left the ballroom.

We walked out the back of the castle that was large enough to get away from everyone but there was still a stone wall going all the way around because of the massive cliff that was right next to us.

"I was told that there was a very beautiful princess living here. I didn't actually believe it until I

saw you." Lucas said.

I felt the blood rush to my face and I looked down, knowing that he would have noticed my cheeks going bright red.

But he used his thumb and forefinger to lift my face up again.

"You don't have to be embarrassed. You really are beautiful. It's just the truth." He said.

"I guess I'm just not used to hearing it. Well, from people that aren't my parents." I said.

"I can understand that."

"I don't really get out much. Or have much to do with guys." I admitted.

"Really? Guys have never shown an interest?" He asked.

"There have been some. But they get scared away pretty quickly."

"By your parents." He assumed.

"No. Not by them." I said. And he looked at me strangely.

Suddenly there was a loud roar that echoed from above us, causing Lucas to duck as he

looked up and he saw a dragon on the roof looking straight down at us.

"Because of him." I admitted.

"Right. I can see how that would scare people away." He said.

"That's Zidrith. Protector of the forest. He was gifted to me when I was 10. He was newly

hatched and has been by my side ever since." I explained.

"So, he protects you." Lucas said.

"Yeah. It's alright if you want to run off now." I said. But he turned back to look at me instead

of Zidrith.

"Why would I want to do that?" He asked.

"Emma." Pa Koda said, coming outside.

"Yeah. Is everything alright?" I asked. He looked a little upset.

"Yeah. I just needed to make sure that you were alright. My parents are here and they want to see you. But just stay away from the front of the castle." "Why?" I asked.

"Your mother's mom just showed up." Pa Koda said.

"Evelyn? Are you serious? She called mom a freak when she found out the truth." I said.

"I know. But now she's here and your mother isn't happy. It would be best if you just stayed away from the front of the castle. Who are you?" Dad asked.

"I'm Lucas."

"Can you please get her back to the ballroom until we get rid of this b***h out the front?" Dad asked. 

"Sure." Lucas said. And dad rushed back inside.

"I'm really sorry about that. There's a whole long story about my other grandmother." I said. "What's her deal?" Lucas asked.

"She's human. She never knew what mom was until she received a letter from my mother's father. It's a little confusing so I'll use their names. My mother's mother is Evelyn and my

mother's father was Wesley. Wesley sent a letter to Evelyn explaining everything and it even

had photos of my mom using her powers. I've never actually met the woman, but from what I've heard, I don't want to." I explained.

"Alright. It might be best to get you back inside then." Lucas said.

He suddenly got this strange look in his eyes. Almost like he was concerned or something. So

we went back inside and just as we were walking up the hall towards the ballroom again I saw

a flash of white from the front of the castle.

I knew that it was my mother doing that, but for her to use her powers on a human then there was definitely something else going on.

Lucas got me back to the ballroom and everyone else were still enjoying the party.

They had no idea what was going on outside but Lucas could tell that I was worried. And I A/E

needed to try to control my emotions. I didn't want to give anything away. I didn't want to ruin

the party. Not my party. Even though Evelyn has already done that.
