Leo's

Epilogue

I smiled up at the blue sky as I lay on the grass like a star fish.

Life at this point feel content, I bring my left hand up towards the sky and stare at the silver band.

It's not an engagement right, it's not my wedding ring- it's a promise ring.

A ring Leo gave me once I had fully accepted him as my Mate, I bring my hand down and touch the metal band.

Never in a million years did I think something like this would happen to me. Being mates to my best friend, him being a werewolf and almost had civilisation gone from a bitch names Selene. 

Its been 3 years since, me and Leo decided to start over again. Honestly. I didn't think it would take so long to forgive him. We ended up going to therapy and really working through our issues, and I started to live again and I couldn't be happier with how my life is right now. 

Leo had made changes to the legislations to mating and even made a committee made up of humans and the supernatural. And yes, the supernatural. Turns out there is more out there than witches and wolves. 

The laws around mating have gotten fair, and everything seems in tune. 

"How long do you plan on paying there?" A familiar voice teased from behind me, I rolled over to my front and looked up with my elbows panted on the grass and my face placed in my hands. There stood Chris, with a churro in is hand. "I ain't sharing it so stop staring at it please" Chris sassed as he took a huge bite of his churro. 

"You're such a bitch you know that ?" I rolled my eyes and moved to stand up "I hope you know only bitches do that" I said and pointed at the bitten Churro "Whatever" Chris mumbled as he turned to look at the pack house. 

"We should get back" Chris said as he wiped the sugar off his fingers, I nodded and we both walked to the pack house. 

The situation with Chris was tricky and complicated. Chris and his mate had their bond broken. Chris tried to stay mated, but the longer he stayed with him the more depressed he became. He said he couldn't get over not liking women. Surprisingly, his mate agreed to it and let Chris go. 

Chris is now mated to widowed wolf names Lyla, they're both really happy and plan on having a wedding ceremony. His mate also re-mated to another human who was also widowed his name is Kyle. Chris is still in therapy, and is getting better  but he's still traumatised.  

Chris stopped walking and looked over at me with a sugary smile "Can you believe the witch shit was 3 years ago from today?" He laughed and poked my shoulder "Thanks to yours truly" 

I nodded and agreed "If you didn't put the moves on Cedar we wouldn't be living right now" I joked but stopped laughing "so much has changed since then" Chris nodded and looked at Lyla who was sitting with my brother with a loving smile "It really has" 

"Payne, you coming?" A familiar voce shouted, I turned over to the voice and I couldn't help but let a giant smile paint over my face. Leo. I was nudged "Go to lover boy" Chris teased as he walked away from me and towards Lyla. I shyly walked over to Leo, who is still handsome as every. 

He got even more handsome if that was possible, he grew a little taller, let his hair grow out enough for him to put it in a man bun, and let his beard grow out. There's no reason for it, but his chair colour changed to jet black. And I think he looks absolutely scrumptious. 

Leo had an oversized black t-shirt with some shorts that came up to his tatted knee. And another thing, Leo went and got more ink on his body, each tattoo had a meeting and each was breath taking. 

Leo held out his now tatted tanned hand and gave me a smile that made me loose my breath "Are you ready?" He looked at me with so much love, It felt like my heart would explode and put my hand into his warm one and Leo lifted my hand his to mouth giving me a small peck as he kept eye contact with me. 

I giggled and nodded "I am"

I looked at the sky and smiled before I looked away and let myself be dragged away by Leo. 

My name is Payne, and this was my story.

The End.
