The last few days were as busy as the last.

Xander and I weren't allowed to see each other, Miranda said it was customary for the groom not to see his bride before the wedding.

Storm was maid of honour and she took her job very seriously. Liam was Xander's best man he was just as serious as Storm.

Not seing Xander for the past few days drove me insane. We were getting married in two days and I couldn't wait.

"Can I just talk to him from opposite sides of the door?", I pleaded with Storm.

"No.This is your wedding and you can only get married one time. ", she said strictly.

"But I miss him. "

"Suck it up princess, you'll see him tomorrow. "

We were having a wedding in the very hall his parents were married in. It was nice that way, he felt closer to his parents. Most mates just complete the mating ritual and skip the wedding but because Xander was so extra he wanted this- and so did I. It was backwards in a way, in my opinion you are suppose to marry first and then have coronation but as I said, wolves usually skip the wedding ceremony and jump straight into the mating and acceptance rituals.

I thought about my parents - they'd be so proud. I was currently trying my dress on and watching myself in the mirror. My dad wouldn't be here to give me away... I'll have to give myself away and that's ok because I know my parents are with me in spirit. The closest person I have to a family member is Jacob and he isn't a saint.

It's days like this that I wish my parents were alive. I miss them so much. I remember wishing they were with me when I turned 18 and when I thought I ld never survive on my own the night I ran away from Jacob.

"Rebecca? ",Storm was clicking her fingers in front if my face.

"Hmm? sorry, what were you saying? "

"You just gazed into nowhere with that look on your face - "

"What look? "

"The completely lost yet longing look. What's wrong? ", she said this time squeezing my hands in comfort.

"My dad - he would- if he were alive he'd give me away and my mom would probably be barking orders about my dress... ", I set softly. They were such happy people and they never worried anyone with their problems. They were strong leaders who never gave up on anyone.

"I'm sure that they'll be proud of you... you've grown so much since I've met you. You're courageous and smart and so damn gorgeous. I am so proud of you. ", she cheered me up and I gave her a weak smile.
There was knock on the door and I sensed Xander. I smiled immediately and I tried to run to the door.

"Don't you dare! ", Storm ran to door and made a big thud.

"Storm I need Grace. Liam needs something fixed with his suit. ", I missed d his voice and I got butterflies when I heard him.

"It's not even his wedding and he's acting like he's suit is important. That mate of mine is such a colorful character. ", she had one hand on her hip and she hit her face with the other one.

"Xander - Xann- ", Storm locked the door and jumped onto me. She blocked my mouth with her palm and my voice was muffled.

"Rebecca, honey - ", he heard my muffled voice and his voice loudened with excitement.

"Xander, I respect you as an alpha and my king but as the maid of honour I will kick you if you speak to her. Follow the rules you lovebirds. ",she shouted while she held my mouth from projecting even a whisper.
