The Moons Darkside

Chapter Thirty-Four | Officiated

They get to Nicos. The only light was coming from the backyard as Seth pulled the car into the driveway.

"How do I look? Will your friend hate me?"

"I don't know how those work together, but you look beautiful, and my friends won't hate you if they know what's good for them. Seth said, making Tara look at him tilting her head. "Everyone in there is a pack member. Their parents are coming to my father's meeting. This is the next generation of my pack. and you're going to be a part of it."Seth looked at her, and she looked down."Hey? We can leave; you don't need to get officiated."

"No.No, I want to. I want to do this."Tara said, kissing his cheek, and opened the car door. "So how do we do this? Is it like a party? Or something else."

"Well, I have to give you a hickey. Others bite their significant other."

"Well, I guess I know where your biting problem comes from."Traa giggles as he glares at her. They hold hands and walk up to the gate.

"Take a deep breath; you'll be okay," Seth said. He opens the gate, and the group cheers. Tara clutched Seth's hand as they walked in. Seth slowly introduced everyone. They finally stumbled upon Milo and Nico. The party planners.

"Well, I guess I got my answer," Milo said, making Seth glare.

"Don't get mad."Tara said, drawing his attention to her."When we win, we'll have all the date nights you want."She kissed his cheek.

"Hey, Tara, right?"Lily asked, and Tara nodded."would you like a drink?"

"Yeah, your lily, right?" tara asked, and she nodded; she took her arm, and they went to a table.

Apollo and Grant walked over. Sadie, Lily, and Tara were all talking.

"Your girls are pretty cute."Apollo said, looking at Seth."You sure she wants to join the pack and be your mate forever."

Seth looked at him, and Milo glared."Watch what you say about my brother and sister-in-law. They are soulmates, your twit."Milo said, standing in front of them.

"Milo, I don't need you to fight my battles."Seth said, grabbing him back."She is my mate and the woman I will love with all my heart. So watch it, Apollo."Seth pointed to him.

Tara was standing with Lily and Sadie. Lily handed her a cup."So you and Seth, how long has that been a thing."

"A while; I've known him for a time, then we started dating, "Tara said, sipping on her drink.

"Seths never brought a girl to the pack, your the first. I'm surprised he even told you."

"Well, that's a story."Tara said, smiling to herself."He didn't even tell me."

"Then how did you figure it out? Seth was well, you know."

"Oh, it all started when I was with my ex, who cheated on me with my best friend and got her pregnant. I figured that out when I was at a party, and Seth was there."Tara told them

"Wait, hold on, Seth was at a party. like voluntaries." Sadie asked

"Milo dragged him. Tara explained. Lily and Sadie nodded their heads."But can you tell me what we do?"

"Oh, getting officiated?"Sadie asked, and Tara nodded."Well, it's a welcome into the family and introducing you to everyone; sometimes, partners want their werewolves to turn them. Sometimes they get engaged."Sadie said.

The boys howled, and everyone walked to the circle. Seth took Tara in his arms."This is not usually a tradition I enjoy, especially so young in my relationship. Seth said, making some guys chuckle."But I'm lucky to have Tara."Seth brought her hand to his lips. The pack was all whole, and they transformed, running into the woods and leaving Seth and Tara in the circle.

"Why did everyone leave."

"Privacy," Seth said, making Tara look at him confused. "Close your eyes, bunny."Tara covered her eyes. Seth dug through his pocket and found a small velvet box. It held a simple band with a crescent moon and a symbol of fire next to it. "open them."

Tara's hand dropped, and they went and covered her mouth."Seth? What did you do."

"something I've been working on; it's simple, but. it's us."Seth said, showing her the band. She just looked at him and smiled.

"Seth, I love it; put it on me?"Tara said Seth spun her around and picked up her hair.

"you mean a lot to me, Tara, and we're a bit new to this, but I can't stop thinking about you."Seth turned her around and held her face. She melted into his touch and looked up at him, her eyes glinting with the moon.

"I love you so much, Seth," Tara said, leaning in, and Seth lowered his hands to her waist. I was bringing her into a kiss.

Kian POV

Auntie Barbra finally joined us. The limo brought her to the manor. Ella and I waited in front of her."COuntess Barbra."I sia opened her door. she wore a white body con dress with detailed black lace don't eh edges and a black brimmed hat covering her face. She took my hand and kissed her knuckled.

"Nephew Kian."She said, kissing both my cheeks. She turned to Ella, who bowed her head. Auntie Barba looked, and I and I both shared a smirk."So I must say I'm sorry for your loss, my brother-in-law."Auntie Babra held her chest in pity. I rolled my eyes.

We went in, and she joined me in my fa- my new study. I poured myself a drink, and she waited for a maid to give her a martini."You never need to act; you wish you could've taken me when my mother died."
"Your father was a weak man. Why he wanted to discuss and be friends with those werewolves, nobody knows why."

"Well, tomorrow, there won't be any werewolves for us to worry about, dear auntie. I said, taking a sip as the door opened with the main giving Barbra her drink."Tomorrow no, there won't be any werewolves to stop me, ill kill all of them like I planned to do that very day so many moons ago."

"Dear nephew, I'm proud to be your auntie."Countess Barba said to me and with both clinked glasses together.

"It's official, my dear countess; tomorrow is the night we end the Amaris bloodline. Once and for all."

The pack returns to the lake house after leaving Seth and Tara alone. Tar kept looking at the necklace around her neck. She held Seth's hand high and looked up at him.

"I'm so in love with you," Seth said; Tara couldn't help but blush. Seth turned his attention to the pack. "Tomorrow is when our fallen brothers' names will be avenged. Because tomorrow will be the end of this war."

The group started cheering.

"Down with the Lycans."Milo put his fist in the air. And the group shouted in howled with joy and anticipation.
