With the family heading north, they had some time before the Bluemoon Pack’s Harvest Festival, so they decided to enjoy the journey at a leisurely pace.
During her time at the Werewolf Alliance training camp, Lily had always envied her classmates who could travel freely. Having lost her parents, she could barely sustain herself, let alone afford vacations.
Even though she was close to Jessica, Lily never felt comfortable accepting fully–funded trips from her friend.
Lily’s health had improved significantly, and during the journey, Louis took the opportunity to hike a beautiful mountain with Cici and her. The climb was arduous, but reaching the summit brought a sense of clarity and renewal–much like her life over the past six months.
Upon arriving at the Bluemoon Pack’s border, Lucy eagerly welcomed them to the modest villa she and Sam had bought with a loan. Sam had been working in the sales department of Michael’s company and had surprisingly thrived.
“He’s really talented,” Lucy said, proud of her mate. “He used to have a knack for gossip, and now his job suits him perfectly. He’s doing great!”
Sam playfully pinched her arm.
The two seemed more like playful children than a mature couple, prompting Lily to whisper her thoughts to Louis, accidentally brushing her lips against his.
Louis’s face turned a deep shade of crimson.
Though they had acknowledged their bond as mates over the past six months, Louis had yet to mark Lily.
Partly, he feared her body wasn’t ready, and partly, he worried about triggering traumatic memories from her past mate experience.
Lily hadn’t pushed the issue, though they often flirted and showed affection.
Three days before the Harvest Festival, as Lily watched Lucy try on her dress, she felt a pang of longing.
She was 30 now, and she yearned for Louis to publicly declare them as destined mates during a traditional werewolf celebration. But living away from a formal pack meant these traditions often slipped by, and Louis never seemed to catch on.
This time, they were attending the Bluemoon Pack’s Harvest Festival às Lucy’s guests.
Everything was ready. As the Moon Goddess March played beautifully on the grand piano, Sam entered the dance floor with his mate, along with other werewolf couples, toward the Moon Goddess statue. Cici joined the group of werewolf pups who were receiving the priest’s Lunar Baptism.
Joy spread through the crowd as the Bluemoon Pack’s Alpha, standing on the platform, offered blessings and a toast to the
new mates.
Michael, still reserved, appeared more composed and revitalized than before. When their eyes met across the room, Lily raised her glass, and Michael did the same.
It felt like this gesture erased all past grievances and emotions an unspoken resolution.
–
The ceremony moved to the moonstone exchange between werewolf mates.
Suddenly, a perfect moonstone appeared before Lily.
Louis, smiling broadly, held the stone and asked earnestly, “Lily, will you be my mate, letting our wolf souls intertwine until death?”
Lily reached out, tears streaming down her face, and nodded.
