"What are you saying?"
"I can't miss out on the ceremony"
"So In essence what are you implying"
"That I want to be part of the ceremony"
Adam chuckles, unable to form the right words. He gazes at Alexandra, observing her intently trying to figure out what was running through her head. Alexandra's eyes soften and tears crowd her eyes.
"Please Adam, I want to take part in the Alpha Election ceremony"
"I don't know what to say"
"Say something. Anything" she whispers, holding the urge to roll her eyes.
"I honestly don't know what to say, Alexandra"
"Are you mad at me?"
Staring at her, Adam couldn't be mad, although he was boiling with anger, he couldn't express his anger towards her.
"You didn't seem interested the other day we spoke"
"You didn't ask me, Adam, you only stated I give up my right"
"But you don't want to" He whispers
"What would people say?"
"You care about what people say"
"No, but as I told you that I don't create room for gossip"
"What are you saying?"
"If I sit this one out, people will begin to whisper and question my origin. It will be humiliating to me"
"It won't since you would be my Luna"
"I can still be your Luna even if I join the ceremony" Alexandra manages to say, dreading the word Luna for Adam has made her dislike that word. In the past, it use to be something she was proud of, the mere mention of it would send butterflies crawling up in her stomach but now it sent nothing but emptiness and at that moment, Alexandra wasn't sure she was ever going to fall in love with that word ever again for it inflicted scars on her body.
"What do you mean?"
"You are Adam Hawthorn and I will always see you as the Alpha"
"Okay and so?"
"Let me partake in the ceremony, I would lose to you, Adam. There is no how I can defeat you"
"What are you saying, Alexandra?"
"I will lose to you at the Alpha election ceremony"
Adam's eyes widened. "You would do that for me"
"Yes Adam"
As a sudden strange feeling engulfs him, his adrenaline rushes up and Adam angrily stresses. "I don't need you to give up Alexandra. Isn't that so petty?"
"Of course not it isn't Adam"
"I can't beat you"
"Do not give up Alexandra"
Lowering her voice, her eyes soften even further. "No Adams, I don't want to be your enemy"
Roaming his eyes up and down her body, Adam realizes Alexandra was a delicate flower and her eyes were bearing the truth.
"Please let me do this Adam, you were meant to be Alpha" she states sounding like a flower.
"Are you hungry?"
"No"
"Are you certain? You look pale"
"I'm fine Adam. Have you given it a thought?"
"I don't want you to give up"
