70. Party
Gemma
There would be no formal dinner that night, since everyone would be enjoying the carnival. But Gemma went with Dale to their room – was it odd that she already thought of the room as theirs? He went to shower the dust and dirt off first; he was dusty after his headlong run, covered in the mud.
Gemma took a shower in the adjoining bathroom, and pulled on some jeans and a cute top. A moment later someone knocked on her door and she opened it. Emily caught her hand and she was suddenly surrounded by laughing and cheering she-wolves.
“What’s going on?” She asked with confusion.
“It’s your bachelorette party! We’re going to be pampered and then meet the guys to dance outside under the moonlight.” The she-wolves cheered again while she was dragged down the stairs and into the parlor that had been converted into a large spa.
There were nail technici

GemmaHer day had been spent getting ready for the mating ceremony that night. It was apparently done under the full moon. She stood in the room, everyone had left and she was feeling emotional. Her father would have loved to walk her down the aisle. Instead she had to do this alone.Emily had left her momentarily to help with some arrangements. Apparently, wolves didn’t have the same type of ceremony that humans did. There was no maid of honor, best man or flower girls. It was just her, walking towards Dale that would wait for her at the front with the Elder.They would say their vows; mark each other in front of everyone there and then she would be crowned directly after. She would then lead them all in wolf form in her first run as the new queen. Could she really be queen?If someone had told her accepting the invitation for the interview would take her on the crazy path to finding a mate and
The Commander's Match 72. Ceremony
DaleThe full moon was about to rise above the tall trees, which signified the perfect time to hold the ceremony for their mating as the royal couple. He was still in disbelief that he had such an amazing mate and that she had forgiven him. She would be his tonight and he would spend every day of his life making up for how he had treated her when they had met.Once the wolves and the council were seated on both sides of the aisle and many more spectators had found seating on the ground around them for this momentous occasion that would make history, Tamara announced that she would find Arcus and inform his Gemma that they were waiting for her.He was nervous, not because he wasn’t sure about mating her, but he feared that she would see him for the undeserving bastard he was and change her mind about marking him. Grant was sitting in the front row, grinning like a loon with his amusement. Elder Gordon would be holding the ceremony to
The Commander's Match Epilogue
GemmaIt had been four years since they had become the royal couple. They had changed the werewolf world. At first, it was utter chaos. There had been an uprising of werewolves intent on bringing back the Elders, but they were mostly the wolves that had benefitted from the three elders’ wrongdoing.The uprising was quickly squelched when Dale called the army to clear the problem. The army had unanimously pledged their allegiance to the crown and for a while Gemma and Dale were working to find housing for the complete army. They were forced to expand their land to the west, where there was no pack.Barracks and a bigger pack house were built. Well, it became more of a stronghold. The old pack house was turned into the hospital, orphanage and halfway house for the rogues that had come for protection.Arcus had never left, playing a big role in their lives as mentor and guide, along with Elder Stuart and Elder
The Commander's Match 1. 1. A day in the life of…
*TW: mention of assault and ensuing damage*GemmaGemma Anne Foster groaned in protest at the sound of the alarm going off on the bedside table. For a full second she contemplated ignoring it and going back to sleep like the abductee she was supposed to be. It was unfair to kidnap her and then make her work!But she changed her mind when the grimace made her face ache uncomfortably, the last gift she received for assuming that she was a normal prisoner. It was a gift from the alpha’s son, the vindictive man – wolf – he sent whenever she did not do something to his expectations. Yesterday had been the first time she had rebelled outright.Of course, that was not to say that she did not get away with certain little rebellions. She just had to be smarter about it. The irony is that the only time she actually saw another living being in her own quarters, was when the alpha’s son came to visit. She did not like his visits, at all.Realizing she had to get ready, she quickly jumped f
The Commander's Match 2. Wrench in the works
*TW: Mention of a battle*GemmaShe had been held in the pack for a little over a month now. Summer was just starting to take over from spring and she had started things that would make her escape easier.She’d started opening and closing her bedroom window at intervals to get her guards used to the sound of her window opening without her trying to get out. From what she’d managed to study on the unblocked internet about wolves, her scent would be surrounding the area with the wind blowing into her room. She studied on wolves and dogs, since she didn’t know how trustworthy the information on werewolves were.She had also collected water bottles, two contained water, one that she would drink from and one that she could douse herself in to minimize her scent for a while. The other contained bleach that she had collected from the small amounts she could collect from soaking the bleach wipes and then
The Commander's Match 3. Battle of Self
Commander Dale Cleaver This mission was supposed to be a simple one. Track the money for the kidnapped she-wolves back to the root and then tear the root out. It had been an uncommonly easy route to follow. Surely the pack behind it couldn’t be that stupid? Apparently, they were. They didn’t have proper border control, nor did they have early warning of the attack. It had been surprisingly easy to take the pack house, so much so that he had expected to find an ambush inside. But there was nothing besides a greedy alpha and Luna and a muscle head future alpha. The Luna had even offered to warm his bed in exchange for her life, not once asking for leniency for her mate or son. He had taken her out, first, especially when his men informed him that the Luna had come up with the idea of trafficking the she-wolves. Turned out she was the brains and her mate and son were just the muscle to make it happen. Then he had worked through the files through the night and found that there
The Commander's Match 4. The Escape
Gemma She couldn’t remember when last she had slept so well; she knew she hadn’t been so well rested since she’d been brought to the pack house. Honestly, it was strange that she’d slept so well, as if she feared nothing. That could only mean one thing; that she was becoming complacent. Complacency could cause her death, especially in the middle of all these beasts. She got up and made her bed, then she glanced out her window and found that there was still no guard posted at her window. This could be her chance to escape! Quickly, she rushed to the bathroom and took a shower. She came out of the steaming bathroom in her towel, like she always did and stopped short in her surprise. The soldier was standing there with the tray, holding her breakfast. Why did he show himself when everyone else tried their best to avoid her? “I’m starting to think you’re trying to see me naked…” She mused in distrust.
The Commander's Match 5. Not so great Discovery
Grant He was half excited to visit Gemma; he could sense her intelligence, though he didn’t blame her for being untrusting. He couldn’t think that she’d had any kind of good experience since she’d been brought here and then his stupid commander and friend didn’t want his mate and locked her up again. Grant could see himself being friends with her; he felt drawn to her. Not in the creepy stalker type of way, but the ‘we could be friends and partners in crime’ way. He wasn’t sure how much humans ate, so he always put together a tray that would fill his own stomach. But this time he’d brought a plate for himself as well, maybe eating together would make her feel less like a prisoner. He just really wanted to get through her defenses and see the real person. He was sure she was an undiscovered treasure and he wanted to be the first to find who she truly was. Unlocking the door, he glanced around and then into her office and closet, but then he noticed the closed bathroom door and
