Tattooed Luna

Chapter 0613This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

It's been a few months since a few months since Anthony and Ann died. Adalynn didn't even seem fazed by the whole thing. She slept just fine but then again, Alec kept her between us in bed. She has yet to sleep in her own crib. Our house and cabin have all been fixed. Alec made a few upgrades but this last week has been the first time it has been calm with true normalcy in our lives. No construction workers or anxious warriors checking on us. We haven't hired a nanny yet and probably won't.

Currently, I was standing in a tent by myself. The weather was getting warm and Alec was forcing me to have a luna ceremony. I wasn't even part of the planning. Penny took care of it all since Colt told her I saved his life. I tried to tell her that I was the one that actually put his life in danger but she wasn't listening. Even Colt didn't blame me. When I barreled into Anthony, his claw went across Colt's neck unintentionally. Which is probably why he left Colt and came after me. None of which Penny listened to.

Emmy had curled my hair and pinned half if it back. The makeup was light per my request but she still put a winged eyeliner on me. Penny picked out my dress. It was ivory dress. Silk long sleeves stopped just barely over my shoulder and went into a deep V. The natural waist dropped into a sheer fabric with flowers stitched into it.

The scars have relaxed and really created a pretty chain-link pattern. Although our wolves really worked on healing me, they are just now calming down and looking like regular scars. I have grown accustom to them to the point that I want to get them tattooed. As a symbol of my strength and determination to not let evil win.

Soft music was playing as I paced around this tent. The only thing I knew about this event was the smell of lilacs. "Ready?" Colt lifted the side and stepped in.

"This was completely unnecessary." Frowning at him, he just smirked at me.

"This isn't the only surprise of the night." Colt had one hand in his pocket and the other was carrying a present.

"Oh?" My eyes went to the evil present in his hands. "I have everything I need."

Colt took a step forward and held out the bag. "Just open it."

Taking it, I sat down in the only chair in the tent. "Fine. Taking the tissue paper out, there was a picture frame in it. I expected to see a picture of Alec and me but instead, it was a young picture of our parents. The women looked so much like me but yet didn't.

"You have too much of dad in you but we are still clearly her children." Colt walked up beside me.

They were standing on the beach, in front of their beach house. Mom was smiling from ear to ear as she held her small baby bump. "Where did you find this?"

"Carson, actually. Went he was going through pictures for us. He found this after we got Adalynn back so he framed it for you." Colt put his hand on my back and handed me a tissue. Kneeling down, he got eye level with me. "I figured you wouldn't want to open this in front of everyone."

"You would be right." Shoving those pesky weeping feelings down, I was ready to accept a hug from Colt.

"Thank you."

"I wouldn't thank me yet." Colt said and stood up. "You haven't seen what this place looks like. She kept it simple but yet not at the same time. Not sure if it was a party for you or for her."

"I figured but I appreciate the unnecessary gesture the same." Smiling, I put the picture back in the bag.

"I'll put this in a safe place for you." Colt took it back. He looked out of the tent before handing it off and coming back inside. "It's time for us to start."

"Sounds good." Walking the few steps towards him, he held out his arm for me. "Nervous?"

"HA!" Shaking my head, I actually found that amusing. "After all the different ways I avoided death and you think this makes me nervous?"

"Yes." Colt answered quickly and honestly.

"Then you would be right! How many people are out there?" Giving him a look, he just smirked and pulled me with me.

"Not enough."

The doors opened and the instrumental music instantly got louder. Everything was covered in some type of flowers with string lights hanging from Penny's go to Mason Jar Chandelier, People stood on either side, blocking my view of Alec.

It was only when we reached the aisle, that I could see him. He was holding Adalynn would was playing with his tie. She was wearing a fluffy white dress but there was already stains on it from her crawling. She had taken off and is on the move. She was so close to walking that I got sad she was more of a toddler than a baby.

Alpha Carson was standing directly behind Alec. The soft breeze blew my hair over my face as we approached. Colt dropped my hand and went to take Adalynn from Alec. At first, Adalynn refused but once she saw Colt's tie, she found a new toy and started playing with it... well, she put it in her mouth and ruined it.

"You all may be seated." Alpha Carson announced. The music softened but didn't fully stop. "Alpha Alec and Luna Kristen have proven over and over again that they not only have each other's backs but will survive anything that is thrown at them. Since they have been together and official for quite some time now, we have decided to do an exchange of vows."

Alpha Carson stepped back and nodded to Alec. Alec took my hands as we faced eachother and started his vows.
