"You ready?" Rage whispered in Willow's ear

"You ready?" Rage whispered in Willow's ear. She was nervous. She had never been in front of a many people before.

She shook her head, leaning farther into his side. He only laughed, wrapping his arms around her.

"I'll be right next to you, the whole time."

Their conversation was cut off by someone clearing their throat. The sound bringing silence to the other side of the door.

Hunter was out there, ready to announce her name, introduce her to the pack after nine months.

Her heat was pounding so fast that it drowned everything out. She missed what Hunter had said to the crowd only catching her name. She jumped, eyes widening as she realized she was going to walk onto stage in front of an unknown amount of people. The only thing she was sure of was that when Joy said the whole pack was not here, she believed it.

Rage pressed his lips to her forehead before slowly leading her out the door. She squeezed her eyes shut, not wanting to see the faces that were looking at her.

"Are you ready?" Hunter asked quietly as they stopped beside him. Both males chuckled when she nodded but did not open her eyes.

"Willow, Mate of my brother, my twin, Commander of the Wulf Army, Protector of our pack," Hunter's voice was monotone as he spoke more to the crowd than to her. "We welcome you to our pack and our family."

When she opened her eyes she focused on Hunter and not the audience. He had a smile on his face that seemed fake and forced sending an uneasy feeling in her stomach. His face was too similar to Rage's to be comfortable with the look, she never wanted Rage to make that face.

Finally she let her eyes wander off of the stage and to the audience. It wasn't as bad as she had thought though. It was more like an elementary school auditorium than the huge amphitheater she had been picturing.

Rage whispered her name, drawing her attention back to what was happening. She looked at him, a small smirk on his face was all she got from the cold mask he was weiring. He nodded towards his brother where he stood with his arm stretched out, hand ready for her to take.

She felt a kiss on her head before Rage nudged her forward. She took a deep breath and grasped Hunter's hand, allowing him to pull her from the comfort of her mates arms.

She focused on where Hunter was leading her as the crowd broke into whispers. They were getting their first look at her, the female that mated Rage, the Alpha Killer.

Her face was flushed as she was drawn to the very center of the stage. All of Rage's family was there, except those who were still in Texas and Fury who was no longer in the state either.

There was a very ancient ceremonial feel to whole thing. The men were dressed well, dress shirts and slacks while the women wore floor length dresses. She felt out of place in the knee-length white dress she had been given. She was glad that it had a high neckline that hid the still healing marks on her chest.
