Deborah's Point of View
A few weeks later

My mother finished curling my hair and set a crown of bright pink flowers in my hair with an orange ribbon and a pink ribbon. I wore her wedding dress which was cream colored and had gold swirls on it. There were bell sleeves on it and it reached the floor, even if I had heels on. Jesse's and I's house got done way earlier than expected so we decided to have our ceremony in front of it.

I was finished and we walked to the house. Everyone came to the ceremony. There was a little aisle between the seats. Mom kissed my cheek and went to sit in the front row and Jordyn linked his arm around mine as the music started to play. Jordyn started to tear up as he led me down the aisle towards Jesse.

Jesse was wearing a tux that Mr. Valentine was kind enough to let him have and Mrs. Valentine tailored to fit him perfectly. He was handsome. He let his hair get a little shaggy so it reached to about the middle of his ears and I have to say, it made him look even hotter than he did before.

We got to him and Jordyn was already a crying mess. "I love you." I whispered to him as I kissed his cheek and gave him a hug before I stood next to Jesse. Jordyn went to sit with my mother. One of the pack elders, Amethyst Beau, gave me a smile and she gave me a small wink. "We gather here today to celebrate Jesse Andrew Underwood and Deborah Elizabeth Melendez's bond." She started. "These two came from two totally different worlds but were united together by the wolf spirits and the moon goddess. We are here to give thanks to them and to, again, celebrate their bond."

She opened a box and it had two rings in it. Since the engagement ring Jesse gave me already had a diamond, I decided to just go with a gold band like his to add to the engagement ring. "They are now going to put the rings on each other's fingers and say their vows." She said. I grabbed his ring from the box and slid it on his finger and he did the same. I looked up at him. "I guess I'll say something first." He smiled.

He grabbed my hands and cleared his throat. "I never thought I would be standing at an altar, having an elder saying a ceremony, and be looking down at my beautiful, amazing mate. But, well, here I am and that's exactly what's going on." He paused when everyone, including Amethyst and I laughed. "I never thought this day was ever going to happen. I never thought I'd have a mate as beautiful, amazing, loving, caring, trusting, and as trustworthy as you. But I'm standing here today with you. If I had the chance to go back in time and change who I would become mates with, I would turn down that chance. I would go back just to become mate with you all over again. Deborah, you're my everything. And I am glad to call you my mate and wife. I promise to stand by you through everything. I love you."

I was tearing up and I sniffled. I wiped away a tear that rolled down my cheek. "Deborah?" Amethyst said. I took a deep breath in and out. "Finding a mate wasn't on my to-do list. I only turned 20 a few weeks ago, so obviously. But then I met you. The feeling you gave me when we first met was the best feeling. It was the best day I could ever imagine. Well, other than today. Jesse, you are super important to me. I don't ever want to loose you. I can't. I love you more than anything and I would love to be by your side for the rest of my life."

He gave me a boyish grin. It's a cute smile. I smiled back. "With all that said and done, you may now kiss the bride." Amethyst said. Jesse pulled me into him and gave me a soft, passionate kiss. I kissed back while everyone clapped. I love this man.
