Chapter 96 Before the Luncheon
(Diana’s P.O.V.)
I woke up without an alarm after five o’clock. Something had been on my mind.
When I learned that the Alpha of Sunset Pack had asked Patrick to invite me to the pack for lunch, I was thrilled, nervous, and curious. But I also felt like an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her in-laws for the first time. I’ve never felt more nervous that when first left home for college alone.
Patrick told me that the luncheon would just be with the ranked members of the family so it wouldn’t be too grand. He was going to pick Lily and me up from campus.
I climbed out of bed, put on the dress I had tried on yesterday, and looked in the mirror. Although I had tried every single outfit in my closet last night and thought that I had found the perfect one, I suddenly had second thoughts about my necklace matching my blouse.
I even asked Patrick if his family and friends preferred high heels or casual shoes for girls but he didn’t quite answer my question. All he said was that as long as he loved me, the others would too. Ugh, what was I expecting? He was a man. Why would I expect any substantive advice, especially about outfits, from him? Still, I couldn’t not be negligent. This was my first appearance before his family. I hoped that they will like me.
In the end, I chose a more formal, but also playful, dress and matched it with a small pearl necklace that made me look more mature. I carefully curled my hair with a curling iron and put on elegant makeup.
When I arrived downstairs at 9:50 AM, Patrick was already waiting for me downstairs with Lily.
“How is there such a beautiful woman in the world?”
Patrick saw me and whistled loudly, then came over and kissed me on the lips.
“Pat! My lipstick!” I pushed him away. Honestly, the lipstick was just an excuse. I was more embarrassed by the fact that I was kissing my best friend’s brother in front of my best friend!
“I can imagine how difficult my life will be in the future.” Lily sneered, but I knew she didn’t mean any harm.
“Get in the car, ladies. The largest werewolf pack in America is waiting for you your arrival.”
Patrick gestured for me to get in the passenger seat. After I sat down, he helped me fasten my seatbelt. Lily sat in the back seat and sighed.

“My dearest little sister, if your mate doesn’t treat you as well as the way I treat Diana, I will blow his head off.”
Patrick drove away from campus and the city. The scenery along the way was nice but I wasn’t in the mood to look at it or engage in their casual conversation.
When we reached the two huge carved bronze gates, Patrick stopped the car. It looked like two guards were looking in and I saw how confused they were when they saw me. But since Patrick was sitting right next to me, they let us continue.
“Are they werewolves too?” asked I.
“Yes, angel. From now on, everyone you see is a werewolf.”
My heart started beating faster and faster. My God, I was about to walk into the world of Twilight. These beings were real. Like really real!
We drove past textured modern huts, cozy shops, intersecting roads, werewolves looking up at us, and even a huge and exquisitely built church. The scenery in the background was dotted with lush green meadows. I honestly could not have imagined such a territory this far from the city where werewolves roamed.
When we pulled up, I almost dropped my jaw at what I saw. We had stopped in front of a huge castle surrounded by green fields. It looked so big and grand that it could only be the home of those on the Forbes’ List if we were to find an equivalent of this in the human world. Patrick told me that this was where the ranked members of the pack lived. This was f*cking unbelievable.
I couldn’t put my feelings into words. All I could think of was that I would have no regrets if I died right here, right now. Even though I had already accepted that my lover was a werewolf, seeing the existence of others like him was still shocking. I couldn’t help but tremble with excitement. Meeting the rest of the pack was as excitingly bizarre as meeting aliens in the Bermuda Triangle or seeing a plane in the Egyptian pyramids.
