Chapter: 3

Nilayah POV:

     I was home for a month now. Let me tell you I been busy helping Stephanie prepare for her Mate and Luna ceremony. My mother and her mother also were helping too. We looked around in every store at the mall. One thing I hate the most is shopping. I’m a simple girl. All I care about is jeans, and shirt. You can never go wrong with that. Finally, after three hours Stephanie finally found her dress. It was a dark pink class that go down to her thigh with mini rhinestones. She had purchased a silver pair of heels with rhinestones.

       When I thought we were done, Stephanie drops a bombshell on me by informing me I was her bride maid. This means that we are off searching for a dress for me. After searching for an hour, I finally found one. My dress was a grey strapless came down to my thigh.

“Ok Stephanie, I have a dress now we can go home”

“Not yet Nay-Nay, we have to get you shoes”

“I’m fine wearing my black combat boots- “

“You must be crazy to think I will let you wear that to Jordan and me ceremony. That will not do, missy. Come on let go over to the shoe aisle. "

I nodded and did as I was told. I look over saw no shoes that interest me. I was never a high heel person because I always feel why create shoes that will end up making your feet hurt? In Stephanie's case, she told full advantage of all the girly stuff. After she is the only Gamma daughter, and a spoil one at that, her dad and older brother are always protective of her. they were so happy to find out that she is mated to Jordan.

    I’m also happy for them two. I had a feeling that the two was going to end up together. Because of the way he was protective of Stephanie when we were growing up.

   Finally the day came for the mating and Luna ceremony. On the stage stood Jordan, Stephanie, Jordan friend and future beta Terrence and, of course, me. Elder Richton perform the mating ceremony with each step. I was proud that I’m getting a sister. It brought me out of my thoughts when Elder Richton did the last step bonding them together as one. The crowd cheers, after they were officially mates. My mother steps up and all of us step back when she performs the Luna ceremony she is now about to pass the title to Stephanie now.

      My mother took Stephanie's hand, and they walk over to the table where lay a dagger and a goblet. My mother picks up the dagger cut inside her hand, she passes the dagger to Stephanie, she did the same. They place their hands to gather as the blood into the goblet. From there my mother say the worlds and that when the room shaking a bit then it stops. My mother had announced to the pack that Stephanie is now the new Luna the crowd cheer with, excitement making the night perfect.

    The next day I was walking around the forest, enjoying the summer breeze. passing by the lake, I went sit by it. As I sit, there taking in what nature had to offered. I sat there for a while I think about the boys. I have not seen them since we been home. I pull out my phone and give Bronx a call.

“Hello”

“Hey Bronx, how are you?”

“I’m good. How about you?”

“Hanging in there. How about we meet up and go out for a drink? You and the rest of the boys?”

“I would love to Nilayah, but unfortunately we are not home. We are on a mission right now”

“What do you mean?”

“We had gotten another mission, it is in China, I thought you knew”

“I did not know. Why did nobody tell me?” There was silence on the phone.

 “You know something Bronx, I need you to tell me what you know?”

“Nay-Nay I- “

“Put George on the phone, he can tell me what going on”

“Ok, hold Nilayah”

“Nilayah”

“George, please tell me what’s going on?”

“I don’t know how to tell you this Nilayah. I thought you knew. We have gotten another mission and were told to leave right away”

“Ok, why was I not included?”

“Because I order not to bring you”

“By whom George? Please tell me”

“The request came from your father, Jordan gives the order”

“Listen George, I’m going to take a flight and meet you all- “

“It’s too late Nilayah, we are ready here. We must go deep undercover. We will be out of contact for six months. I’m sorry Nilayah, I know this is not what you want to hear”

“It’s not your fault George, you all be careful, and I talk to you all when you return”

“Ok keep your head up love, talk to you soon bye”

“Bye” As soon as I hung up the phone, I felt my blood boil. I could not believe those bastards did that to me. It's bad enough I was robbed from the Alpha title, and now they want to dictate my life. I had enough, I’m going to confront those assholes. I run back to the packhouse. I could feel Blossom about to take over, and soon they were going to feel my wrath.
