Alpha King's Mate | SANO. Manjirou

Chapter twenty two

As the trio walked back to the pack house, the black-haired girl observed Yuna with keen interest, her ruby eyes flickering with curiosity and excitement. Yuna, on the other hand, was animatedly chatting with Sanzu, her words flowing freely as she expressed her thoughts.

"I feel like I'm a lucky charm for this pack" she remarked, her tone a mix of amusement and self-assuredness. "First Chifuyu finds his mate, and now you."

Sanzu rolled his eyes but couldn't help a smirk. "Well, thank you, Your Majesty, the Luna Queen," he replied in a slightly exaggerated manner.

The girl's eyes widened dramatically, and she let out an exuberant gasp. "You're the Luna Queen, like the Alpha King's mate?" Her voice pitched higher with each word, unable to contain her surprise.

Yuna nodded casually, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "Not for too long, but yes."

"Nice to meet you, Luna! I'm Neyako Watanabe, a shewolf from the Dark Moon Pack," she introduced herself with a slight bow of her head before looking up again, her energy infectious.

Yuna smiled at Neyako's enthusiasm. "Pleasure to meet you too, Neyako."

Neyako's excitement bubbled over as she whispered loudly to Sanzu, "Bow to the queen!"

Sanzu, looking slightly annoyed but playing along, sighed and bowed his head ever so slightly. "You don't order me," he muttered under his breath, clearly not accustomed to being bossed around.

Yuna, catching the exchange, couldn't help but smirk. "But Mikey can order you," she pointed out, her tone teasing yet firm.

Sanzu, resigned to the playful banter, bowed his head a little further. Yuna grinned, pleased with her small victory. "You may rise. Fuck, I like this" she declared, adding a playful jump for emphasis.

Neyako, bouncing with energy, clapped her hands together. "The Luna is my friend now!" she exclaimed, her excitement palpable.

Throughout the exchange, Sanzu's expression shifted from irritation to resignation, his eyes conveying a silent plea for relief from the playful antics. Yuna walked beside her, a smile playing on her lips as she enjoyed Neyako's cheerful company.

The Alpha king's warrior couldn't help but correct her, albeit gently. "She isn't your friend. She is the Luna."

Neyako's face fell momentarily, a hint of disappointment crossing her features as she mumbled, "At least let me dream."

Yuna, noticing Neyako's reaction, glanced at Sanzu with a playful glint in her eyes. "She is my best friend. Got a problem with that?"

He rolled his eyes in response, not bothering to argue further. Neyako, seizing the opportunity to lighten the mood, exclaimed, "Yay! The Luna is my best friend!"

As they made their way to the pack house, Neyako's exuberance was palpable, her steps light and energetic. They approached the pack house, then they encountered a tall man with a scar over his left eye. His eyes widened in recognition, and he quickly straightened himself as they approached. With a small bow, he greeted Yuna, "Luna."
