Everyone kept telling me A would say yes to me. Her family told me that she has always wanted to
uphold the family tradition of getting married to her mate. We were officially mated, and about to try for
pups. For human couples marrying is thest big step, the onemitment you could not easily get
out of. With being mated it was different for us wolves, yet my stomach was in knots as I watched her
walk in with her
father.
Look as stunning as ever in the dress–Jessa had helped pick out for me. Since I know my darling likes
to match clothes so much I wore a dress shirt in the exact same color blue with a gold tie. After talking
it over with our friends, and her family I came up with the n to proceed with the ritual as we normally
would. At the end, A would need to give a speech to thank the pack for weing her in our midst.
Where I as A’s partner would give a shorter speech thanking them for letting my mate be part of our
pack.
During my speech I would not just thank my pack, I would thank A too. And that would end up in me
proposing to her. We all liked the idea of A already being a member of the pack when I proposed.
Not that her being engaged to me would change anything about the pack’s answers to the question if
we would allow her in the pack. Every one of them hade to love–A. Well all but one, Cynthia still
resented A, it is why I didn’t like the idea of her being released before the party. Sadly I couldn’t tell
A without spoiling the surprise meaning that I had to take a huge risk.

One voice not epting her joining the pack would not change much. In fact Cynthia still would even if
she was still locked up. As a member of the pack connected to the mindlink her voice would be heard.
But I feared she would say or do something when I proposed to A. And I didn’t want anything to taint
that memory. When she pressed me about why I didn’t want to release Cynthia today like she had
come up with. I couldn’t exactlye out and say well I don’t want her to ruin the surprise proposal. I
have been thinking about it for months but suddenly had to rush now because I want you to be my
fiancée when you’re pregnant. Marrying before you give birth or right after depending on what you
want.
Bad as it may be I had even looked at reasons to postpone her release. Set things into motion today
just as I promised A I would. Just have it take so long that we couldn’t get it done on time. Only
when the Princess and the Crown Prince want to release a prisoner processing takes about an hour. Of
course I could ask them to release her tomorrow
tell A I tried my best. But I would never lie to my mate so I had no other choice then to hope for the
best. At least Dillion and Gerald new they would keep an eye on her with their mates. Reassuring me a
little.
bit.
When I went dress shopping with Jessa we had bumped into Cynthia. She was all alone and no longer
had any of her friends with her. Maybe because A had won them over, or because what David had
done. showed every pack member how batshit crazy he was. Making it clear how much abuse she
must have gone through before I met her. Or maybe they just saw how happy A made me and how
much disrespect Cynthia showed her for it. Whatever it was it pleased me to see she was

still suffering from the consequences of her behavior. Both because it was a sign of the packs‘ loyalty to
A and me. Secondly as a ruler I knew I could not me her for this forever. But as the mate of the
woman she had offended so I still held a grudge for her.
I was shocked.
Now I had spotted her in the crowd in the full ballroom. by the amount of work everyone had managed
to pull off in such a short notice. The ballroom smelled of my favorite food. White and silver balloons
and streamers filled the ceilings. Still it did notpare to the beauty of A’s smile when she noticed
me in the crowd. Jay and her made their way towards me. It was a good thing that tonight A would
no longer be a part of Jay’s pack officially because even I could tell he was getting emotional. Now with
the pack transfer A seemed to think nothing of it as it made sense.

“Silver Moon Pack, we are gathered here today to ask you to let my son’s mate, my wonderful
daughter–inw and your Princess be a part of the Silver Moon Pack. Is there any objection
against this?” After a bit of small talk the ceremony had finally started with Dad as the Alpha leading it
all. As he asked the pack members if there were any objections. I scanned the crowd for Cynthia.
Relieved to see her father holding her by the arm stopping her from saying anything.
Reassured I face A again just enough to hear Dad dere. “There are no objections from the Silver
Moon Pack. Who here is present to break the bond with the White Oak Pack?”

The rest of the ceremony went by quickly, A gave a wonderful speech thanking the pack. Promising
to not only be the best future Luna and Queen there could be. But to never forget she was just another
pack member either. There was a fine line between being a pack’s leader and seeing yourself as more
than the other members of the pack. It was a line A understood and never crossed. Yet another thing
I loved her for, and now I could finally publicly dere all of those things.
There was a mixture of shock, disbelief and hope on her face as I kneeled down and took one of her
hands in mine.
“A my darling, there is so much I want to tell you know and yet there aren’t enough words to tell you
what you mean to me. For different reason we both feared we would never have this future. Now we
had to
move up this ceremony because in a few hours we will be trying for our first pup. You made my life
infinitely better and you don’t even know half of it. That is why I want the entire world to know that you
are mine as much as I am yours. Just not wolves who will see your name carved on my corbone as it
is carved in my heart and soul. No I want every human, and other being who sees us to know too. So
my darling, my love will you do me the absolute honor of marrying me?”
As I finished the speech that had drifted quite a bit from the one I wrote I opened the ck velvet box.
Hoping that she would love it, ignoring the fact that I could see Cynthia moving from the corner of my
eye. Eagerly awaiting A’s answer.
