(Noah)

Today is a big day. Everything needs to be perfect. I can't mess up this time! She's finally giving a chance! One chance and I need to prove her that enough, to prove I'm the right one for her. Damn, I'm so stressed that I didn't sleep last night.

"Don't screw up!" My wolf says.

"Thanks! For your support! Do not see that I'm already too stressed by myself!? I need you on my side!"

"Sorry, I'm just stressed too but you're right, we are on the same side. We can't screw up!"

"I know! We will not." I reply more trying to reassure myself than to convince him.

The good thing with the fact that I didn't sleep last night is I had the time to plan our not date - date day. I will bring her to a nice lake in our pack territory. I cooked a picnic for both of us, with my mother's help. She and Dad were happy for me when I told them Selina was giving me a chance. We also spoke all together with Fynn, yesterday night when I went back. Even Lila was here. He recognized that he was struggling a lot but he also shared with us that he wants to move on. Actually, he already started to look for a vet's school.

He also confessed what he did to me at Selina's 18 birthday party. I'm not angry against him because maybe his confession to Selina helped me. Moreover, as she told him, the past is the past we can't change it, we just have to live with it. And all of this would have never happened if I was not stupid and ignoring my soulmate. I look at my watch and it's 9:55. Finally! Time to pick up my sunshine. I teleport myself to the castle in front of her wing. I'm surprised to see Tom waiting outside her door.

"Hey, Emily is helping her to get ready." He tells me.

"Hey, good!" I say.

"Breath Noah, you should be happy."

"I'm happy but I'm so scared to mess it."

"She is your true soulmate, everything will be fine now that you both aren't denying it."

It's crazy how he changed. He is so wisely now and positive. After Melissa's death, I thought he would never be the same again. It's nice to see him so happy and relax now.

"I hope you're right!" I reply.

"I'm!" I say knocking at the door for me.

"Hey Noah, how are you? She is almost ready. Good luck!" Emily says once she opened the door and saw me.

A few seconds later, she is followed by Selina. She is wearing a black dress and her make up is light. She is just breathtaking. She is always breath-taking but dressed like that... She is just WOW. No words can describe how perfect she is. She looks at me and my heart is biting wildly everything around us is fading away. At that moment nothing else matters than her.

"Hey Noah, How are you?" She tells me with a shy smile.

"Hey Selina, I'm fine thanks! You're so... sublime. Wow!"

"Thanks." She replies blushing.

"Are you ready to go?" I ask and she nods.

"See you later kids." Tom tells us.

I could roll my eyes on him but my only focus is Selina. I tend my hand toward hoping she will take it. And she did.

"YESSS!" My wolf purrs. Small dance of victory in my mind.

"Let's go sunshine, we have a busy day in front of us."

"See you later old man." Selina replies to Tom.
