Chapter 28

28 (final copy)

I stare at myself in the mirror. The dress was beautiful. The top of the dress was a tight corset top that has spaghetti straps with an open back. The skirt of the dress goes down and past my ankles so it trails a bit. The skirt also had a slit on the right side. I noticed some flower designs on the corset and a bit on the skirt. I grabbed the heels and put them on, which wrapped around my legs a bit. I rub my hands through my hair, before brushing it out, and curling it. I pin my hair up in a half up hairstyle. I pull some hair, to frame my face.

I look at myself more in the mirror. I decided to go for a more bold yet natural makeup look. I do a pink and tan smokey eye, black eye liner, with light blue eyeliner for my bottom lid, mascara, and finish the look with a natural pink color. I put on Jeremiah's mother's necklace, before putting on a gold butterfly bracelet on my left wrist and gold dangle earrings that had a single star and a single moon on each. I give myself one last look over, before leaving the room.

I walk slowly down the stairs, I see my mate. Jeremiah was wearing a sleek shiny black suit, holding a bouquet of Moon Flowers. When I reach Jeremiah, he hands me the bouquet. I take it, as he hugs me tight.

"For the next surprise." He says.

He takes my hand, leading me out of the back doors, where there is a trail of red roses. We walk silently down the trail until I see an open space with multiple trees lit up with fairy lights. Then my heart begins to warm up. I see all of my family members and my friends. They were all dressed up and standing there.

"You did this?" I asked Jeremiah.

"Lily and Miles helped, remember?" He asks, as I let go of him, running over to my family, hugging them tightly.

"Happy birthday." All my family and friends say.

"Happy Birthday Luna." I hear, I turn and see Alensia.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I snap.

"I came here, because Alpha Throndsen asked me to be here."

"What? Why?" I ask, confused, as I step away from my parents.

"When should we start?" Alensia asks.

"Now." He says.

"Now? Huh? What's going on?"

"The last surprise."

"Last surprise?" I see Zermaine and Lilith's faces go blank, "What the hell is happening?"

I watch as an Omega walks over, holding a copper bowl. The Omega puts the bowl in between Alensia and Jeremiah. I look in between the both, as everyone is silent now. No one is saying anything. I was confused. Left in the dark.

"Jeremiah, what the hell is going on?"

"I'm giving up my immortality."

"Immortality? Why?" I asked.

"Zelda," He takes my hand in his, "I want to be able to grow old with you. I want to be that old couple we see by the pond every Wednesday and Sunday. I can't think of a life without you," He smiles, "I love you way too much."

"Jer," I say, feeling my heart warm. I love you too, but you don't have to do this."

"I want to," He says, kissing my forehead, before turning to Alensia, "I'm ready.

"Of course," She nods, "Please take this blade, cut your left hand, let the blood drip into the bowl."

"Okay." He says. Jeremiah takes the knife from Alensia. He cut his hand and held it above the bowl, blood dripping from it.
