___ 3 days later. Outside the mountain home the werewolves gathered, the air was filled with excitement and happiness, so as nervousness and a little fear. After spending years in hiding and with constant fear for their lives, they are finally at peace, their alpha has fulfilled his promises, they will once again be safe and sheltered, they will again live normally. Safia made her way outside the mountain home together with her four merry blonde friends. *I'm not bragging or anything but wow, I'm literally the best designer in all of werewolf history!..* Claire brags *oh come on you know you're not, not even close* Morgan crushed *you're lucky it's safia you dressed, she looks good In anything* Ashley points out *but personally I think with proper training ,Claire can be a great designer* Stella spoke *thank you Stella, that's why you're my favorite, you're know things they don't* Claire thanked. *and I think all of you can be great at anything you want, thank you Claire I love this dress* safia spoke. Safia is adorned in a long pencil sleeve white dress that has silver flower designs at the bodice and surrounding the waist, her long raven hair cascade behind her styled in a princess crown hairstyle, she wore just simple black shoes. They stopped near cherry, where hunter was talking with other werewolves when an old lady approach them with a smile. *princess....when you first came here we all were hostile towards you, we thought you had ulterior motives for helping us, so we gave you a hard time. I want to apologize again on behalf of all the werewolves that once though Ill of you, you are a blessing to us, and we will forever be grateful to you, thank you* she bowed. Safia quickly stopped her bow *please Gran Nina, don't embarrass me so by thanking me again, what I did anyone could do, and besides, I was selfish too and did most because of hunter and my father, it is I that should thank you, you accepted me as your own, took care of me and protected me, you even went easy on my father, I thank you...* Safia cutesy. Then Gran Nina handed safia a small box *here, eat something before we leave..* Safia took the box, before she could open it hunter had already smelled it. *moon cakes! Gran Nina you brought cakes!..* he excitedly spoke. *yes, I brought moon cakes for the princess, not for you* Gran Nina spoke as she walks away with a smile, leaving behind a sad hunter. Safia opened the box of 6 steaming moon cakes, she gave the girls each then took one for herself and closed the box. *Safi dear, your darling Hun is here...* Hunter coax *yes, I saw him* *he is right next to you...* *I'm aware..* *and he's smiling at you..* *I can see that..* Hunter pouts and turn away. The girls laugh at his behavior before walking away. Then safia taps his shoulder a little, he turn to her and his pout was immediately replace with a smile as safia offered him one delicious steaming moon cake.
__ A few hours later all the werewolves were ready to leave, they didn't take any belongings with them for fear they might not be accepted back, so they only pack their things and kept them neatly inside the mountain home to retrieve if they did get accepted. Hunter stood at the very front and address the werewolves *After several years of struggle and living in isolation, today we finally get to go home, and let's not forget our reputation there, the people are wary of us because they are made to believe we are bad, so it won't all be sunshine rainbow over there. We have to win their trust, show them we mean no harm and understand their views on us, we have to be patient with them, and kind towards them. Now... let's go home!!...* The werewolves loudly cheer. *hop on...* Hunter spoke to safi as he shift into his werewolf form, all the other werewolves also shifted. Safia excitedly climb onto werewolf hunters back, she looks to her side and saw cas atop werewolf malik's back, sera rode jack and like that, the male wolves all carried their wife's or children atop them.
And together they ran full speed towards black moon kingdom, the forest small animals all gave way as the battalion of werewolves rush past the trees and jumping over small branches. As the wind whizz past safia, her hair flew behind her, she closed her eyes and spread her arms, feeling the all the excitement, the happiness and warm fuzzy feeling of finally going back home, even though she will not see her father.
__black moon The once vibrant and happy kingdom of black moon, looks gloomy. The once bustling streets and market place, is empty, not a single shop is open. Only the soldiers roam the kingdom. When the injured soldiers came back home, they took their duty and protected the kingdom, they locked the gate and are in constant patroll, every wall, every streat and corner has soldiers stationed. But they were at a lost of what to do, they have no king, their princess hasn't returned, their highest and most honourable general disappeared after betraying them. So the high ranking generals and nobles took the acting role of rulling, they make collective decisions that run the kingdom, trade and politics didn't stop, they took care of it and anything else that arises or needs to be taken care of. By now the people have realized, the werewolves were never the bad guys, because if they were, not a single soldier would return from the Battle field, they now understood their king has lied to them, he made them hate and cursed innocent creatures that did nothing wrong to them. But all they can do now is wait and hope for the best. As another gloomy morning arrives, the soldiers stationed atop the kingdom wall were doing their duties, when they spotted a battalion of werewolves coming towards the kingdom at a high speed. Immediately they blared the trumpets, they bang the drums and shouts *they are here!! The werewolves are here!!...* They draw their arrows and aim towards them, then they waited for a generals order. *i..is that the Princess atop the leader of the werewolves?...* One of the soldiers spoke *Looks like it, and they all carry the ladies and children atop them too* another soldier ponts out. *we know they are not evill now, so why are we pointing the arrows at them?*..a soldier wondered the general spoke *lower your weapons, i don't think they are here to fight, open the gates and inform everyone the Princess is back!* He ordered. The soldiers push open the giant kingdom gates, they blared the trumpets and beat the drums again as they loudly announce *the Princess is back!! The Princess is back!!!....* All the people of black moon opened their homes and step out, they ran to the gates and eagerly await the Princess arrival. __ Upon reaching the wide opened gates of black moon, the werewolves came to a halt, they face the people who stood from inside the kingdom staring at them wide eyed, as they stay from outside the kingdom, with only the open gate separating them Safia climb down hunter, using her palms she smooth out her dress and pats her hair to fix it, hunter then shifted back to human earning a collective gasps of surprise and awe from the onlookers inside the kingdom. the ones who mastered the shifting without destroying their clothes shifted back to human, and the few that didn't , stayed in their werewolf form. Safia held hunters hand and starts walking closer to the open gates, but just inches away from entering she stopped. Looking at her people stare at her and the werewolves behind her with wide open eyes, some looks nervous and scared , some look hopeful and inviting, safia felt nervous again. But before she starts wondering in her thoughts, came a cheery voice through the crowd, Brenda made her way to the front and right behind her were Brocks family.
Not giving any attention to the werewolves Brenda grab safia and pulled her into the kingdom, she engulfed her into a motherly embrace *oh princess!, my princess...I'm so glad you're back safe and sound, I missed you so dearly*
*I missed you too bren, I missed you...* As the two hug, Vivian spotted her father standing among the werewolves outside, full speed she ran out of the kingdom and jump into her father's waiting arms. Brock happily picked up his daughter high and twirl her around then hugged her together with little carden, his wife and eldest daughter arrived and he engulfed them into the family hug as they cry. *I'm here don't worry I'm here, everything will be alright, you shall cry no more my dear family, you shall cry no more....*
As the rest of her family hug, Vivian wipes her tears and slips away to approach cas *hey....I'm glad you're back..* she shyly spoke *me too...um...how have you've been?...* Cas slowly spoke *Oh well, I've been very very worried but now I'm fine, you and my papa are safely back* Vivian reply *sorry I made you worried....here, I brought you something* cas handed Vivian a small box of moon cakes that have went cold because of the wind *thank you....* Vivian smiles.
Safia and Brenda finally broke their long hug, then Safia introduce *bren..this is hunter March, Hun..this is Brenda* *I've heard much good things about you miss Brenda, it is an honor to make your aquintence* hunter bowed *the honor is mine, we've went through much for you...* Brenda teased as she looks at safia, referring to the time he and safia were cut apart.
Malik walks in and gave hunter a small white flag, which hunter raised high and loudly announce *we werewolves come in peace!!!...* That broke the silence from the people as they cheer loudly. They welcomed the werewolves in and lead them to the palace gates. As they approach the palace hunter emotionally spoke *it looks exactly same as before, nothing changed ...* *I can't help but wish mom and dad to be in there waiting for us....* Cas let out as he wipes his tears. Safia held his hand and comforted *they are not in there in person, but they will always be In here, and they are very proud..* she points to his heart. She spoke with a smile but hunter could see the smile did not reach her eyes, she wants to cry but is holding it in *he is in here too, and he is proud of you, I'm not just saying to comfort you...I saw it in his eyes at the battle field, in his final moments I saw relief and proudness towards you in his eyes...* Tears run down Safia's eyes to which she quickly wipes away, hunter held her hand with an encouraging smile, then gently place a silver princess tiara atop her head *he is proud....* He repeated assuringly. He then lead safia to climb the stairs that lead inside the palace, she turns towards the people and the werewolves standing next to each other. *I am not going to give a speech, I will not try to explain or make you understand why the king did what he did, but all I can say is....I'm sorry, I apologize you are dragged into a mess you know nothing of, I apologize your loved ones payed the price The werewolves being here means nothing but peace and harmony, I know it won't be easy to accept them with open arms, and I am not asking you to share your homes or meals with them, I just ask you give them a chance, be patient and kind towards them. They have lost everything, their home, their families, safety and lives, they were hated for a crime they did not commit. So please I ask you people of black moon kingdom, help make space for the werewolves, after so many years they are back home, welcome them...and be at peace with them. I am princess Safia of black moon, daughter of king Travis daneer, and I am mate to hunter March, leader of the werewolves, today I promise to both human and werewolf kind, I will be a just and fair princess to you, I will not discriminate or be biased. I am the princess for the people....by the people...and with the people...*
The people and werewolves cheer loudly at the princess words, they feel relieved and at peace, they trusted her and will continue to trust her.
As the loud cheer continue, hunter faced safia, he brought out a small box and drops to one knee, grabbing the crowds attention, they quieted down to watch the alpha and the Princess. In the most melodious, soft and gentle voice hunter spoke *from the first sunrise to the last moonlight, I think of you in each second of my life, you gave me meaning and true happiness, I understood survival and sacrifice with you, and I want to thank you for coming into my life, you make my life beautiful and colorful Princess safia Travis of black moon kingdom, would you do me hunter March the honor, and be the moon that lights up my sky.....* He then opened the box to reveal a shimmering crescent moon shape diamond ring. Everyone waited with beated breaths for the princess reply. *Hunter March, alpha to the werewolves....the honor would be mine* The crowd cheer as hunter slips the beautiful diamond ring on Safia's finger, he picked her up and twirl her around before embracing her into a lovely hug as he whispers *thank you safi.....thank you...*
Cas and Vivian who have been at the very front witnessing everything, felt their eyes suddenly being covered by pair of large palms, Brocks palms *oh come on....* They whine
