As I entered outside the guard I finally took a look at was frantic and concerned, “Please do not say anything to anyone until I speak to the Alpha.” “Okay, that’s fine.” He was shaking he was so terrified, “Please I beg of you not a word to anyone.” I shook my head in understanding as I watched him head directly to the Alpha. I couldn’t imagine who I would even tell about that experience besides Rogan, Laura, and maybe Reese but I wasn’t even sure what to say about everything I felt I needed to speak directly to the Alpha about what the rogue wolf had just said to me. I watched as the guard hurriedly made his way to the Alpha and the Alpha’s eyes grew then he searched the garden area and locked eyes with me. He scowled at me at first but then looked around again this time I saw he made eye contact with Rogan and motioned for him to join him. I stood where I was because if I was correct the Alpha would be coming towards me at any time. Sure enough, it seemed the Alpha had ca
Although I knew Rollo would soon find out about the rogue wolf almost escaping and me being involved I didn’t say a word at that moment. I didn’t want anyone else worried about me, especially when apart I was not frightened when it came to the rogue wolf. I felt like if I was truly allowed to speak to him that he would give me more information perhaps on when and how there would be an attack. I felt like this information was vital and made a promise to myself to pursue it further when things had calmed down. The Alpha and Rogan were now fronts in the center of the stage preparing for the beginning of the ceremony. The moon Goddess seemed to be glowing and I admired her from up above not even acknowledging all that had occurred tonight just glowing with her many gifts. “Everyone if we could please prepare ourselves for the upcoming ceremony.” A hush came across the garden and some either sat down or remained where they were. I noted that there were now screens up most likely for
I knew the Alpha did this to distract any more conversation about the matter but I wasn’t sure how the next few hours would go now. As we took off the Alpha and Luna led and Rogan lead the way behind them, “Come on Kellina I want you beside me.” I looked back to see Laura and Rollo keeping pace so I moved to join him and they did too. I had never been so grateful to have them all beside me as I looked out in the distance I saw Erin running and hoped he was okay with the new events. The funny thing about it was it didn’t matter anymore who was alright with any of it anymore because the moon goddess had decided as the Luna so eloquently stated. Still, I worried had it would impact the pack, those we loved, and how Rogan and I would move forward. We stopped at the same spot we had for my ceremony in the open field looking out into the wood. The moon glowed above us and I let the cool breeze flow through my fur as I relaxed and gathered my bearings. Immediately many of the pack approac
“What are you two discussing without me?” Rogan gritted through his teeth and he came close. My thought was he presumed his mother was being angry towards me but I knew what her true intentions were. I went up to him nuzzling his neck and he calmed a bit. “Your mother and I were just discussing some of our future as mates now.” I push into him extra so he knew I was happy about it. He put his head down curling me into his larger wolf body. He looked up though at his mother. “I will not have you trying to keep us apart anymore mother.” He stated so simply but it was full of anger. I understood where he was coming from because now that it was out in the open it felt more upsetting to him that they had insisted on keeping us apart but the other side of me knew they were trying to protect him and ensure the pack accepted us all. It was why no matter what happened with us being mates his father had named me a High Priestesses. It ensured protection for me no matter what Rogan and I
There were more pack members on top of me for the rest of the night than I knew what to do with congratulating, making requests, and now acknowledging my existence. I did my best to handle it with dignity and grace. I wanted Laura and Rollo especially proud of me. It neared the end of the night and at last, I escaped to get to Reese for a brief moment. She naturally squealed and jumped into me hugging and squeezing me tightly, “I’m so happy for you! It’s like a magical happy ending isn’t it? Oh my gosh, you must be ecstatic!” “I’m happy yes but I think I’m too tired to be ecstatic and with all the events of the night I’m not even sure where Rogan and I go next but yes it is pretty magical.” With Reese, it was easy to be excited and nice to feel the joy in her flowing into me. She pulled apart still jumping up and down and squeezing my hands. “This is going to be so great! Oh my gosh, I have to get to do you’re your for your marriage ceremony!” Marriage Ceremony, my stomach hurt
I said my goodbyes quickly after things calmed down. I assured Laura I would call her in the morning when I woke up as well as Sarah. They both were concerned and Rogan the entire time looked completely lost and consumed with sorrow. I was able to say goodbye to everyone but Erin as despite my best efforts to seek him out he was nowhere to be found. I told myself that was probably for the best and tried to make things lighter as even the Alpha and Luna had left to get Roe to bed and leave us in the now clean up of the ceremony. “How about you give me a tour?” I asked and for about an hour Rogan spent taking me from room to room. I was trying to pay attention but in the end, my nerves and my thoughts made it very difficult to pay attention. Rogan too was lost in his mind because he was more of a curator of a museum who has gone over the same speech hundreds of times rather than just him and me talking. I knew he was beating himself up for breaking my hand but with the help of my fel
Looking back at him seemingly with his dark hopeful eyes made me feel broken into but it was true and I couldn’t fight anymore my wolf screaming at me that this was our mate. I’d made a promise now to Roe and myself that I wasn’t going anywhere but I wasn’t sure if I was ready to tell Rogan. I thought quickly about how to resolve this and ensure that this would work. “I will stay but there has to be some acceptance on your part as well.” He grinned so excited he was like a little boy again getting a present from Santa. “Name it.” He stepped forward but I still stepped back nervous to be too close to him until I’d said my peace. “You can never stop me from using the calming effect again.” He frowned at me but nodded his head and he took another step forward. I put my hand up stopping him. “I mean it, Rogan, you have to trust me too and trust when I am using it, I am trying to help you not make things harder on you.” “Okay, I will do my best to trust your instincts but can we
I had fallen asleep and was dosing naked on the bed when I woke up to noises coming from the bathroom and Rogan being gone. I looked around for something to put on quickly and saw Rogan’s suit jacket still on the floor. I slipped it on and took in a deep breath breathing in his smell it was completely enthralling to my wolf nose and I would recognize his smell anywhere forever more. The jacket was large on me due to his broad shoulders and defined body it went down past my butt and easily covered my front. I enjoyed wearing his clothes and told myself I needed to do more of this at least. I’d all but forgotten why I was reluctant at the moment to be here instead of alone in my room. I meant to go look in the bathroom but instead, I become enthralled with looking quietly around his room. There were pictures here and there of him and his friends. I told myself we needed to take more pictures to hang up if I was going to stay here and in general the entire room was neat. I lo
