Thank yosa,” I sad face I looked at my reflection and sighed. I did look beautiful. I looked like a princess, a real princess.

But she a complete frand.

We weren’t haring a traditional wedding this time. Jeremy said he wanted my wedding to be different from when I married Hake and different from when he married Helen. We were going to do things differently.

I stugged into the shoes Jeremy had picked. They were elegant white, silk sandals with sparkling rhinestones on the straps. They had three-inch heels just high enough to make me feel a little wobbly.

Now, I was ready to get married, again.

The mands brought me down to the gardens where we were hosting the event. I stood beside the stage where Jeremy was suming, ahressing the entire pack. He was telling them about the frame job and how I was always meant to be his mate and Luma

I watched him as he spoke, all smiles and all friendly. He was dressed in a custom-made silk suit. It glinted in the sunlight and made him look even more handsome.

Hie was very bardiseerise and charming. I caught a glimpse of the other pack women in the crowd. They were all staring at Jeremy, practically dreeding even him. Everyone’s dream, except for mine.

Subßenby. I needed to get out of there. My chest felt like it was being squeezed in a vice and my heart pounded furiously. Sweat broke out on my bow. My knees felt dizzy and I couldn’t breathe!

I picked up my skirts, ready to rum, and looked around. How could I escape? There had to be a quick and easy way out.

majority of our lives.

94%

The dream I’d fallen into with Blake was over. I’d woken up now and my life was back on track. Back where it should have always been.

Jeremy held out his other hand to me. Part of the ceremony he’d planned had us holding hands on opposite sides of a small Moon Goddess statue that stood on a table.

He maneuvered us on either side of the statue and Jeremy held out his other hand to me. I glanced at his hand, swallowing hard. Once I took it, the ceremony would officially be started and we’d be bound together forever.

My heart sank suddenly. As much as I wanted to help Moonery and be part of my pack again, I couldn’t help but hesitate.

Slowly, I lifted my hand, ready to join with Jeremy. Just before our fingers touched, a guard ran onto the stage.

His hair was messed up and he had a split l*p. “No! No!” he cried.

Jeremy dropped my hands and ran to the panicked guard. “What is it, what’s wrong?”

My heart hammered in my chest. We were under attack again?

“Th-the… the L-Lycan King!” the guard panted, pointing toward the entrance of the event space.

“The Lycan King!?” Jeremy roared.

“Blake?” I gasped, covering my mouth. My stomach exploded with flutters and I looked around, hoping to catch sight of him.

What could he possibly be doing here? Had he come for me?

“What do you mean about the Lycan King?” Jeremy asked.

“H-he… he’s unstoppable! He just showed up here and…” the guard shook his head and looked around, eyes frantic and wild.

“Where is he!?” Jeremy demanded.

The curtains at the back of the stage parted and Blake stepped on stage. His eyes narrowed, face gloomy.

“I’m right here,” Blake said firmly.

Everyone in the crowd dropped to their knees with sighs and awes of respect.

Blake was dressed just as nicely as Jeremy, or better.

My heart nearly exploded and I almost ran to him, but I saw the stone-cold look in his eyes. He turned that harsh gaze to Jeremy.

Jeremy and the guard stepped back in fear.

“So, you thought you’d steal my wife?” Blake snarled.
