Chapter 124
The peak of the festivity would happen on the third day because that was the day, where they would officially give the baby name
and it happened when the moon shone brightly. It was the night of the full moon, therefore, it was a sacred ritual for them.
Ruby would get involved a lot during the process of this, since she was the mother of the baby and also the luna of the pack.
In this case, luna Jasmine couldn’t interfere, even when she was trying to mess up with this situation, there was nothing much
she could do, because it meant a lot for the baby and she didn’t want to get to the taboo and put the baby in bad
omen.
Therefore, Ruby was pretty happy to be able to hold the baby in her arms for a whole day. No one would take her son away from
her arms during the third day, because this was the moment, the baby should be together with their mother, to create the bond
between them and asked for the blessing from the Moon Goddess.
During that time, Aiden was also there. He had to accompany his mate and their baby, creating the bond between them and
strengthened the mate bond between him and his luna.
If there was one thing that she could complain about, it must be this, but aside from that, Ruby enjoyed the festivity.
The first and the second day, luna Jasmine didn’t allow her to be out of the room for a long time, but one time Ruby did, the luna
would send her back to the room with the excuse she must be tired after giving birth and still needed to recuperate.
However, at this moment, she couldn’t make another excuse.
“So, she will not come?” Ruby asked, she stared at her baby and played with him when she spoke casually. “Do you think she
will come in the last day?”
Aiden finally noticed that Ruby was talking to him. “What? What did you say?” he looked at Ruby with sullen expression. His
mood had been so bad ever since the first day of the festivity because he had not heard anything from the lycan pack.
“Are you still looking for her? Do you think she will come tonight?” Ruby raised her head and looked at Aiden in the eyes. She
looked indifferent. She had been like this ever since she gave birth to their son.
Somehow, the way Ruby talked to him and how cold she became, bothered Aiden, yet he put this feeling on the back of his
head, he didn’t want to visit that feeling and made himself became uncomfortable.
“She will come.” Aiden looked indifferent to match the carelessness that Ruby showed to him. “After all, she wanted the
necklace. She needs to come to get it.”
Aiden glanced at Ruby, who returned her focus on the baby again, but this time, he was clearly upset because Ruby didn’t show
any indication that she was pissed by the way Aiden openly waited for another woman.
“You need to treat my mother well after this. You know how much you have caused trouble because of your early labor?” Aiden
scoffed. “I have to sacrifice a lot for you to just give birth. If you only took care of yourself well, I will not be in trouble like this.”
Aiden intentionally talked bad about how he had sacrificed a lot for her to have a safe delivery, but Ruby didn’t budge. She didn’t
give the respond that he wanted.
“Now 1 realized, bring you here, it only asked for trouble,” Aiden hissed again, while the people around them looked very happy
with the festivity and all the food on the table. They looked very immersed in whatever they were doing, thus they didn’t pay
close attention to the alpha and the luna’s interaction.
“1 agreed,” Ruby replied, which made Aiden frowned. “If the necklace is way more important than your firstborn, you shouldn’t
have promised it.”
Aiden balled his fists when he heard that, he talked in a very low voice, almost like he was growling right now. “Do you think I can
bargain with him at time like that?! My mother is right, you are very ungrateful.”

Ruby raised her head again and graced Aiden with her attention for the second time, but her limpid eyes didn’t show any fear,
neither she’showed any anxiety like she used to be. She was eerily composed and calmed when she talked, as if she had turned
into someone else at this moment.
“You shouldn’t have agreed. I have never agreed to get help from the healer,” Ruby said lightly with a smile on the corner of her
lips. She looked very beautiful. After giving birth, her body looked more voluptuous and was not as skinny as the first time they
met. “I have never asked for a healer, have I?”
“You could die, if I didn’t get a healer for you!” Aiden growled and this startled baby Azel, as he pursed his lips and Ruby rocked
him to not crying. Seeing this, Aiden tried to control his emotions, but it was hard because of what Ruby said next.
“Then let it happened.” Ruby smiled at baby Azel, caressing his ruddy cheeks to make him stop crying, as if she was talking
about a lighthearted matter, instead of a life threatening one.
“You are so ungrateful for what I have done for you!” Aiden was shaking with rage.
“I only wanted to remind you that I went into an early labor because of you. You are the one, who caused me to have an early
labor and because the necklace is way more important in your eyes instead of our child, I think you shouldn’t have agreed to
alpha Hunter’s request then. More so, I didn’t ask you to do that.”
