Peace

Luna Adrianna

Morning arrived and I was curled up within my mates arms. Octavius was already awake and waiting for me to wake up. Finally a morning where we wouldn't be interrupted. A morning where we didn't have to question if we'd see that night. No more confessing our feelings thinking we are going to die. A morning where we could just live in the moment with one another. No worries to interrupt us.

Finally peace.

"Good morning, Luna," he greets, his nose nuzzling my neck.

I moan softly and meet his gaze. "Good morning, Alpha."

"I could stay in bed with you all day," he yawns.

"Then lets stay in bed," I propose.

"As tempting as it is, we have guests waiting in the dining room for breakfast. They are here to confirm we completed the mating process."

I roll my eyes and just curl further into his body heat. "Let them wait longer then."

He laughs and wraps his arms around me. We could finally have alone time together without the worry of the pack falling apart. They could wait a little longer, we deserved this after all.

"Are you happy, my princess," he asks softly into my hair.

"Of course I am and are you, Octavius?"

"More than words can explain," he tells softly and kisses my forehead.

Sometimes I wondered if this was real. If this was a dream and I'd wake up and find myself envious of my sister stealing my mate, but this was real. He was real. I'd have those nightmares occasionally, but I'd be awoken by my mate to reassure me. Thats when everything would come back to me and I'd calm down, I'd never be alone again.

I am relieved we finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel. That we can spend this eternity together. That my ex taught me what a relationship shouldn't be, and what qualities I should look for in a mate. How I should be treated and he just confirmed everything. After last night with my sister, he just confirmed he was mine. Mine and mine alone. It also showed my sister's true colors, that she will take anything away from me that makes me happy.

Octavius sighs and sits up, leaning on one elbow. He grins down at me.

"What," I snap.

He laughs again. "You are just so cute when you are all cozy, alas we have to get up."

I sigh and roll into the pillow, hiding my face. I yelp feeling the cold air bite my back, but it is soothed with a few kisses between my shoulder blades and down my spine. I look over my shoulder to see him smirking.

"Get up, princess, I have a surprise for you," he tells.

A silk robe is laid beside me as he disappears into our closet. Sighing once more I pull on the robe and a pair of socks since it was freezing. I join him in the closet where I see garment bags hanging on a rolling clothing rack.

"What is this?"

"I had a few new dresses commissioned for you as you are now the Death Luna."

"For me? Really?"

He nods. "Go ahead and take a look at them."

Opening every single garment bag reveals another beautiful dress. Some elegant and slim fitting, others frilly for events like balls, but each unique. My eyes were drawn to the one that looked like a Death Goddess, the one I chose to wear today. It was a solid silky black dress with thin straps and generous neckline with a slit on each side of the gown. The back was open exposing most of my back.

On the dresser in the middle of the room sits a case that is open, a dark onyx crown with tall sharp peaks sits nestled in the velvet bed. A matching necklace, earrings, and ring sit beside it.

"I believe these are befitting for the occasion."

I decided to pass on the matching necklace I chose another. It was a simple gold chain chocker with a long chain that went down my back. At the very end of it was a tear dropped shape onyx dangling off of it.

"Fuck me," I heard my mate mumble as he beheld me.

"How does it look?"

"You are truly befitting of your position. You were meant to be mine. I am so fucked."

I smile to myself in the mirror as my mate comes up behind me. "Well no duh. Of course I was meant to be yours. We were quite literally born for each other. Well, you were reborn."

He simply rolls his eyes and encircles my waist from behind. "How am I going to get through breakfast with you looking like this?"

I shrug. "Not my problem," I tease and flick his nose playfully.

The dining room was filled with our pack members when we arrived. They all sat in stunned silence, but not in an uncomfortable way. In a silence of admiration. There were whispers from the elders as we walked by most likely scenting our completion. We took our seats in front of our thrones, Octavius being ever the gentlemen and pulling my chair out before sitting in his own.

What came next, I couldn't prepare for. Yes, we are werewolves and it is natural, but it is still uncomfortable. Mortifying.

The eldest female of the pack steps up and stands before our table, a grin wide on her face.

"I am happy to announce that your Alpha and Luna have completed the mating bond. They are now one and equal. It is my pleasure to announce your Death Alpha and Luna," she says cheerfully.

While the pack roared in excitement, I sat with blushing cheeks. My mate on the other hand sat with a proud smile on his face. His hand placed on top of mine a squeezed it in a reassuring manner.

"You are so cute when you blush." he teases.

"Shut up," I growl back.

During the breakfast many came up to offer congratulations, apologizes, and some even offered gifts. Octavius explained this was normal to offer gifts to the newly mated pair, but I never heard of this tradition. This must be new or just a tradition not recorded when I was studying this realm and packs traditions. It caught me off guard, but in a way showed that the pack was accepting and ready to move forward. So was I.
