"Ok enough of this talk you two, the party will be starting is 4 hours, the council likes early parties" Aramis declared "Leanna, since its your party you may take whatever youd like from the royal treasury you might find some jewels to frost yourself with" he smiled at his newest daughter "thank you sir" she bowed "please call me dad" that made Leanna laugh. For the next little while, Leanna was looking through the wardrobe to find a gown for the party when a knock was heard "come in" Callandra came in hold a parcel "looking for a gown?" she asked "yes i am" Leanna answered Callandra put the parcel on the bed "here wear this, this was my own coming out party gown. It may be a little old but its still beautiful" Callandra looked at her "thank you so much mom" Leanna hugged her.Callandra then left the room so Leanna could get dressed.

The dress her mother in law gave her was beautiful. It was a full length royal blue gown with gems sewn with silver thread the sleeves were detachable. It certainly looked old. In the box was also a diamond tiara with a matching necklace. Leanna knew it was obvious that Callandra wanted her to feel like a fairytale princess tonight. The shoes were the same color as the dress with jewels hanging off of them.

It took an hour to get ready with some help. Leanna looked in the mirror and didnt reconize the beauty looking back at her. The princess in the mirror had her hair in a bun decorated with little jeweled hair clips in the shape of stars. Leanna smiled at Anna and Callandra and walked out of the room "remember Leanna, when you walk down the stairs, you will be walking unaccompanied it is tradition in this world" Callandra had told her earlier, Upon reaching the stairs Leanna took a deep breath then started down the stairs Zephyr waiting for her at the foot wearing a tuxedo and polished black shoes. Gasps were heard as she came into view while hundreds of eyes were on her, Leanna took Zephyrs awaiting hand floating almost to his side "Lord and Ladies, I want to introduce Leanna. She is my mate and wife" Zephyr announced proudly which made her blush.

Leanna met many royals and dignitaries but she had noticed among the people she didnt know there was one boy she knew as if she had known him all her life. Marcus Melare. He came up to them with a black haired man in a suit and wearing a royal crest on his finger "Hello Zephyr, greetings Lady Leanna, it is a pleasure to meet you"  the black haired man greeted "my name is King Asarious Melare and this is my son Prince Marcus Melare The High Royal family of Fallen Star Pack" he took Leanna's hand and kissed the top of it which created a small growl out of Zephyr, Marcus was wearing a suit as well but then again all the lords were "Nice to see you again Zephyr" Marcus said in a obnoxious voice "likewise"  Zephyr took Leanna away glaring at Asarious but not so at Marcus. 

Half of the evening was meeting royals when there was only one left, a member of the Council of Immortal Elders, they made their way to the silver haired man wearing a cape over his tuxedo. "Greetings Lady Leanna, Welcome to our world. I am Lord Devon Kingsleigh the Werewolf Elder in the council.  The Council may not take this union well since you are and always will be a slayer of immortals in the their eyes but i welcome you warmly" Leanna smiled "it is an honor to meet you Lord Devon" she curtsied out of respect. A banquet was served, Leanna could see chicken, roast boar glistening in sauce, rich gravy and deserts like apple crisp, angel food cake topped with Strawberries and whipped cream, pudding, and the like. She had never been so full in her life.

Next in the party, a party under the full moon which was held in the ballroom the roof of the castle could be pulled back so they were dancing under moonlight, the part about werewolves being forced to change under the full moon was myth. A soft melody was playing as Leanna and Zephyr slow danced "so what do you think of this life so far?" He asked her "its amazing so many royals and in some way they are connected to the Celtic Moon pack" Leanna marveled "well whenever there is trouble in one of the packs, ours and others are able to go and help, its a good system" Leanna giggled as they spun around the dance floor gracefully waltzing around the other dance couples. By the end of the night everyone was tired. Zephyr and Leanna stood at the front door bidding the guests farewell and a safe night.

Leanna went to her room to take off her dress and accessories putting on her nightgown with a silk robe and got into her feathered bed smiling "finally" she mumbled to herself going into a half awake-half sleep state. What woke her up was the sound of the alarm outside being sounded and the yelling outside. Leanne heard a guard yelling "THE FALLEN STAR PACK ARE INVADING!!" those words sent chillds down her spine
