It was kind of funny seeing Ayla so flustered, although I wondered if I was just as bad when I was about to meet Kate. Who had been helping me to get some of Ayla’s favorite things? I was also now on the elusive. list of people she sent reels to. I didn’t know how to feel until Ayla told. me I made it to the inner circle now. Just as she told me I would. It will be the same with my grandparents. They will love her, Grandma will most likely tease her a bit, nothing Ayla could not handle. As soon as Grandma she will love her.

She looks stunning, but she is still so nervous, and when Grandma, teases her about finally meeting I feel her tense up. She still puts on a huge smile greeting my Grandmother. Hours later her nerves are long” gone. Grandma has pulled out all the most embarrassing photos from my childhood. Eventually, they ended up looking through the albums of pictures from when Grandma and Grandpa just met. Up until their wedding, not all werewolves marry because completing the mating process is enough for us. But humans would not recognize you as being married, and we all needed some contact with the human government to have access to everything. Grandma and Grandpa wanted to be married in the eyes of human law too.

I always liked the idea of being married, there was something romantic about it. A mating ceremony like Kate and Tim had was more about

celebrating the fact that you completed the process. It was just a party, the rest of the pack didn’t hear you confess your love to one another like they would during a wedding. Just as I was thinking about how to replace out if Ayla would ever be willing to marry she squealed at my

grandparents‘ wedding pictures.

“Oh you two married, my grandmother has been raised as a human so she wanted to marry for her human friends. Kate is the first in the family not to marry. I always wanted to marry” She sighed wistfully before looking up at me.

“Don’t worry Griff, I’m fine with not marrying either don’t feel pressured or anything” She even sounds a little deflated.

Grandpa just winks at me, he knows I always wanted to marry too. It was one of the first thing I told him when I found out about second- chance mates. That I would replace her and marry her underneath the cherry tree in their garden. I was happy he didn’t mention it though, I loved the idea of Ayla being surprised when I proposed to her. As soon as I knew when she would move into the castle I would plan a proposal. She’s promised me she will have a move–in date next weekend. When the two weeks to settle her affairs are over.

Grandpa insisted Ayla and I stayed over for dinner since he was making his fully loaded fries with handmade french fries. I was about to tell him we couldn’t make it since Ayla had to go home she surprised me by

turning to me and asking me.

“If you don’t mind if I stay the night, I have the afternoon shift tomorrow”

I just nodded, and she told me she had to work the afternoon and evening tomorrow. I would love nothing more than to sleep with her in my arms another night. Having dinner with her and my grandparent’s was a close second. But I was so surprised, that I was at a loss for words.

“No, of course, I–I, yeah I love it if you stayed another night” I finally managed to stammer out.

“In that case, I would love to stay over for dinner, and does Griffin have the recipe” She asked, and seeing Grandpa’s proud face when she did made me feel so happy.

He promised her he would teach me how to make it if she liked it. And, then he ducked into the kitchen. He started whistling again he always does, he doesn’t know if he does though. Ayla giggled when we told her, before turning back to the photo albums again. I was close to my grandparents, and seeing Ayla and my Grandmother both smiling. Heads almost touching each other. I had to take a picture. They both looked up in tandem, so I snapped another one, now with the two of them looking into the camera. After I showed them they both agreed I could keep the picture. When I showed them to Grandpa later he wanted me to send. them to him. The smile on Ayla’s face when he asked her if I could print it out to frame it and put it on the mantle melted my heart. She agreed.

and I saw that she suddenly realized how right I was. And how much they love and accept her.

We make our way back to the castle just like we got here. Walking together, hand in hand chatting about every little thing. And that night when I fell asleep with my nose buried in her neck. I start planning my wedding proposal, hoping I can dream about our wedding.

“Come on. Princeling time for a night off” Dillion burst into my room. He is right, it’s been three days since the weekend. Ayla still was crazy busy, she left me wondering how many last affairs she had to settle. It seemed to me that she could wait with most of her affairs until she knew

an exact that. But I didn’t question her I was just very happy that she managed to make more time to text and call me. But I had a lot of work too, Dad seemed to need me a lot more this week. And the few moments when Ayla texted or called me were the only moments I took a break.. The rest of the time I would be working, eating at my desk and only stopping to get some sleep for a few hours.

I had wanted to finish all my work before the weekend again but I had to admit that there was no way I would make it. And if I would go on like this I would be exhausted before the work was done. So I closed my laptop, sent Ayla a last text to let her know I was going out, and then I went to my chambers to shower and get ready for my night out. When I saw the bookshelves with the five books I bought Ayla last weekend and the picture of grandma and her I framed and printed and nothing else. I smiled again like I smiled every night and every morning.

I couldn’t wait to live here with her, so much had been going wrong for us. When David attacked her and I lashed out like that I was scared I ruined it all. But ever since that night, everything was smooth sailing. Maybe it was because we finally were fully open and honest with each. other. Maybe it was just because Ayla accepted she loved me. Whatever it was I was going to enjoy it.

My night out with Dillion and Gerald had been fun but both were a bit weird. They kept glancing around. Avoiding talking about the weekend. All Gerald said was that Jessa was going to a thing from one of her ex- packmates. Which was weird since that would mean it was one of Ayla’s ex–mates too. Yet she hadn’t mentioned anything about an event. Quite the opposite she had repeatedly told me that she wasn’t going to do. everything. Because she was so tired. I just hoped Jessa wasn’t going to some ex–pack member who bullied Ayla. Because I feared it would upset my beautiful mate, to know Jessa still liked people from the Blood Moon. pack enough to hang out with them. Especially if it was on the Blood Moon pack ground. Even her parents had moved to the White Oak pack after learning what David had done. And as it was a part of the peace treaty we had with Alpha Phillip they could bring all their stuff with them, and there wouldn’t be any consequences for them. I feared it wouldn’t all be that simple, but tonight was about having fun. So I shook the thoughts from my brain.
