September 16th

I waited inside my room. The room I'd grown up in. The room I'd slept in until I was taken by Tristan...

I smile thinking back on that short time... But that little time was all it took for me to fall in love with him. I felt my eyes moisten and Momma scolded me.

"Don't cry, or else I will..." She murmured looking at me through the mirror.

"Were you nervous momma?" I asked wringing my hands in my lap.

"No. Yes. I was nervous for many reasons. But I never had this," She gestured to my reflection, I couldn't help but smile. "You're so beautiful baby,"

"Thank you momma. Do you think he'll like it?" I asked.

She nodded, and smiled sadly. I took her hand that was resting on my shoulder, "Momma, just because daddy's giving me away doesn't mean this is

goodbye. He's so good momma. I love Tristan so much. I never thought it was possible." I explained.

Then I heard a knock on my bedroom door, "Isa?" I heard daddy call I wiped my tears away, being extra careful not to smudge my make-up.

"Come in, Daddy." I called, He opened the door and stopped. Taking in my room and me and momma as I stood.

He cleared his throat, "you ready, Isa?" Holding his hand out for mine.

"Yes. As I'll ever be." I smiled and took his hand he looped it through the crease of his arm and momma followed behind, holding my light blue heels-

borrowed from her. Once we got down the stairs I slipped on the heels.

Momma came and ruffled my hair- fixing it- she insisted, but I knew she did it because she needed to feel close. I remembered nights she would tuck me

and she'd ruffle my hair until I was satisfied enough to stay in bed.

I hugged her and kissed her cheek. "I love you, momma." I whispered.

"I love you, too." She murmured kissing my cheek.

Daddy took my arm again and momma left to go get her seat. once the music started dad and I walked outside.

It was beautiful. They had decorated it perfectly. I felt more tears sting my eyes but I held them back. And then I caught Tristan's gaze, he was waiting for me

at the end of the aisle, smiling gently. I smiled back unable to hide my happiness.

Almost everyone was here. My father and mother's pack, and Tristan and I's pack. There was no more hate between our packs. I couldn't help but giggle as I

looked over to see Dj patting Tristan's shoulder. They'd become close friends.

As I looked to see my brother standing on my side. Tony hadn't come... i felt a sharp pang of sadness. It cut deep, to know he hated me. But someday he

would thank me, right? When he found his true mate and felt the way I did right at this moment. when we got to the end of the aisle Tristan stepped forward

and my daddy took my hand in his. Daddy turned to look at me.

"I love you, Isa." Daddy, whispered quietly, as his eyes grew misty. I squeezed his hand.
