Bedding My Vampire Mate-Chapter 33 The Golden Token
Joanna stared at the Alpha. Her gaze moved to look at the sparkling eyes of Jocelyn sitting at her right-hand side. She looked away from her expectant face.
She has so many requests and wishes but which out of all her wishes can this Alpha grant?
Can he wipe away the title of her being the child of a mistress from the memory of everyone who taunts her daily because of her lowly birth?
Will he be able to make her more powerful than everyone in the kingdom so that she will never get bullied ever again?
Even though she has a wish that humans can fulfil, this is not the kingdom of Twipera so the Alpha's promise is restricted only to this place.
He has no authority over anything that happens in the kingdom so how could he possibly help her?
Even though she asked for money right here it will eventually end up being pocketed by her greedy stepmother and stepsister so what is the use of making a request?
"I have no request," Joanna broke off the silence with this short sentence. Her words stunned everyone under the sound of her voice.
Anyone would have jumped up in excitement if given such a golden opportunity. They could even ask to become the only Luna of the Golden Core Pack. The title of Luna is every girl's dream in the Pack.
Being the Luna, you will not gain fame and prestige but as the only wife of the Alpha, you will be pampered all your life.
Such a golden opportunity and Joanna let it slip by just like that.
"Besides, we didn't save the Young Miss to get rewards in return for our good deeds".
"Are you sure you don't want anything?" Jocelyn asked. Even she was surprised like others to hear Joanna's words.
Anyone would have jumped at such an opportunity but Joanna proved to be different.
"I am sure," Joanna said, unfazed by the way everyone was staring at her.
"Are you also of the same opinion as her?" Alpha Benjamin asked the quiet Audrey.
"Yes," Audrey's reply was concise. Their words left the Alpha momentarily speechless.
Yes, he was hoping that they wouldn't make an impossible wish but it never crossed his mind that they would turn down his offer.
"Get me the token," Alpha Benjamin addressed his Beta, Noah.
Noah left the room only to return with a golden token. He collected the token from Noah and brought back his attention to his guests.
"Since I have made a promise I can't take it back so I will give you ladies this token in place of my promise," Alpha Benjamin said. He signalled Audrey to come to collect the token.
"This token represents my promise to the two of you. If ever you need help or have a request, you can come to me anytime and whatever might be your request I will surely grant it as long as it is within my power," Alpha Benjamin handed the token to Audrey. She bowed and returned to her seat.
"Is this tiny thing that valuable," Audrey muttered as she examined the golden token that was in the form of a square shape. The head of a werewolf was carved on the token making it look unique.
"Of course, it is very valuable. As long as you have the token, not only the Alpha but the entire pack will respect you. The token has no expiry date. Whether or not the Alpha who gave you the token is alive or not, its value will never diminish. That is how awesome the token is," Jocelyn said with pride.
"If that's the case then I guess I was wrong then," Audrey took back her previous words. 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝒏𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙣𝙚𝒕
The Alpha made known his wish to host them for the entire day but Joanna and Audrey, who were eager to leave, turned down his request.
Jocelyn that was looking forward to having them stay with her the entire day was disappointed by their reply but that didn't put to death her desire to make them stay.
Jocelyn extended her hands and held Joanna's hands.
"Please will you stay and let me repay you for saving me?" Jocelyn said. Her gentle words and sad expression tuck Joanna's heart. Joanna could see her desire to leave faltering as she stared into the girl's gentle gaze.
"We are hosting our pack's annual festival. It's usually lively during the festival. Apart from the hunting competition that will be held in a few hours, there will be a party at the night. As long as you agree to stay just for today, I promise not to make you guys regret staying behind," Jocelyn made a juicy offer.
It wasn't that her offer was too irresistible but it was the sincerity in her eyes and voice that touched the cold heart of these two girls.
"Please stay for my sake huh," Jocelyn said. She squeezed Joanna's hands gently when she saw the reluctance in her eyes.
"Jocelyn, our guests have made it clear that they won't stay for the festival so let it go already," Alpha Benjamin said sternly. He signalled Noah to go get Jocelyn away from the girls.
It hurts him to see his little sister acting so pitifully but there is nothing he can do at the moment. He can't force the girls to stay behind if they don't want to.
This is what he was afraid of when Jocelyn asked him to make them stay behind. He couldn't believe that his fears had come to pass.
"Are you really sure that you will make our stay worthwhile?" Joanna asked while staring into Jocelyn's eyes. Noah stopped in his tracks on hearing Joanna's question.
"I… I…," Jocelyn stuttered. She was too excited to say a word.
"Aren't you the same confident girl earlier so what is wrong now? If you can't give us your words about this then how do you expect us to…,"
"I can do it," Jocelyn said in a hurried tone.
"Does that mean we are staying over today?" Anthony who was as anxious as Jocelyn asked curiously.
