The soft feel of Tristan's mattress against my
back told me, what a dummy. We were moving, not the room but who
cares? "Now where were we this morning before we were rudely
interrupted?" Tristan asked biting down oh so sexily on his bottom
lip as he stared at me with a mischievous look.

 

The sounds of birds chirping woke me up the next
morning as I lay in bed. Sitting up, I instantly noticed I was
completely alone. What the hell, where is he? Tilting my head
sideways I tried to listen for the sounds of running water, which
would mean Tristan's in the shower, but I didn't hear anything at
all.

 

Feeling a little put out after such an
amazing night or shall I say morning with Tristan, I kind of had to
wonder did something happen that he had to get up and leave?
'Where are you?'
I asked, pouting
that I didn't get to wake up in his arms.

 

'Good morning,
beautiful.'
Tristan's voice instantly answered with a
chipper undertone to it.
'I'm sorry I had
to leave you alone, had a few errands to run and needed to help out
with a few last minute preparations for the ceremony. Didn't you
get my note?'

 

Note? What note I thought as I looked over to my
right and there in plain sight on the pillow next to me was a note
from Tristan and a single tiger lily.

 

Sorry for not being here when you woke up.
Had a few things to take care of. Thank you for the amazing night.
Love you more than anything else in this world -Tristan.

 

'Thank you for the note and
flower.
' I responded with the cheesiest grin plastered
to my face as I brought the flower up to my nose to smell.
'I love you too.'
Getting up from
the bed I stretched my sore body and decided to shower before
heading home to get ready. We had a busy day ahead of us filled
with excitement.

 

I was pacing back and forth in the front foyer
of my house nervously trying to work up the nerve to go next door.
The ceremony starts in fifteen minutes and here I am being a total
douche. What the heck am I so darn nervous about? I need to woman
up and get my behind over there.

 

Maybe it's the fact the entire Monhegan
Moonlight Pack with be next door along with members of Troy's Pack,
we invited them along. Like I said we've all become extremely close
friends. Or it could have be due to the fact that today is the big
day when a crapload of responsibilities will be placed upon my
shoulder, would I be able to live up to the hype? Meet the pack as
well as Tristan's expectations to be the best Luna I could possibly
be?

 

Dammit where's Anya when you need her? She's
always able to calm me down with her bossy attitude and joking
manner. She went over to Luke's to get ready for the party since
they haven't seen each other since yesterday. Mmm-hmm get ready for
the party my butt, I know exactly what they’re doing.

 

The ringing of the doorbell caused me to freeze
on the spot. Smoothing out my dress and patting down my stray
hairs, I hoped I wasn't too overdressed for the occasion. I don't
want to come off as a complete diva to the pack.

 

Standing on my doorstep with his hair styled
messily, was Tristan. He was dressed in a pair of black slacks with
matching black boots and a gray long sleeve button up that matched
his eyes to the tee‍, which was by the way completely unbuttoned
with a thin black tie hanging loosely around his neck.

 

His heartbreaking smile took my breath away when
his eyes focused on me, making me feel as though I was the only
girl in the entire world. "You look stunning." He breathed out
licking his lips slowly.

 

"Thank you, as do you." I answered nervously
with a smile. Stepping closer to him we stood outside on my porch
as I helped button up his shirt the rest of the way, leaving a few
unbuttoned at the top...just the way I liked it to show off his
muscular chest. Next, I got to work on his tie.

 

"I figured something out while I was getting
dressed, it wouldn't be very gentleman like if I didn't come and
escort my date over to the party." Tristan admitted winking at me
playfully. "So I rushed right over here in time to catch you before
you headed out."

Arriving at the ceremony hand in hand, my
nervousness instantly dissolved the moment Tristan entwined our
fingers together and gave me a reassuring kiss on the head. I
placed the gift in my other hand on the table.

 

Second part of his gift which I guess I can
disclose to you guys now since he'll be opening it later on. I
bought Tristan an Ipad2 so that he could organize and keep his
business affairs in order. Thank goodness for the job at the
college bookstore or else I'd be broke and not had any money to buy
him a thing.

 

I was passed around like the bread basket at a
dinner table as I got pulled and yanked into hugs by Luke, Anya,
Max, Sam, Jordan, Gabe, Troy, Andre, Axel, Jett, Sal and Lance. My
eyes widened in surprise as I took in a very visibly pregnant
glowing Jewel standing next to Lance.

 

She stepped forward with open arms in my
direction, of course this caused me to look over my shoulders both
ways to see who she was approaching, because I sure as hell knew it
wasn't me, at least I hoped it wasn't.

"Hey you!" Jewel chirped excitedly almost as if
we were long lost friends who haven't seen one another in years.
Wrapping her thin arms around me with her protruding belly pushed
up against me. "Yea you...Lise. It's good to see you, it's been so
long." She gushed. Who the hell is this and what was done with the
old Jewel?

 

"Umm, yea. Hi." I answered hugging her back
awkwardly. "It has been long, how have you been?" I asked feigning
interest and concern. I had to let bygones be bygones and allow the
past to stay where it was, since I'm becoming Luna of the pack.

 

"Good...good." Jewel answered rubbing at her
tummy happily. "So grateful for having met Lance, now I'm pregnant
with twin pups. Being a part of his pack has been amazing." She
smiled, even at seven months pregnant. Jewel still managed to be
radiant. "Listen, I just wanted to apologize for being such a bitch
back then. You didn't deserve any of it." Jewel said sounding a
hundred percent sincere as she touched my elbow with her hand.

 

I nodded my head in response and answered the
best way I could. "Don't worry about it, that was the past. Thanks
for the apology and I wish you the best of luck with your twins." I
smiled just as Tristan's parents came over to greet us with
hugs.

 

Tristan was bombarded with hugs as well as quite
a few birthday punches from the guys. Hmm, maybe I should've
brought my travel sized bottle of hand-sanitizer, I thought as I
was busy shaking everyone and their mother's hands, familiarizing
myself with the pack once again.

 

I was complimented numerous times about the
tattoo on my shoulder. Everyone seemed to ooh and ahh over it,
thinking it was the most adorable birthday gift a Luna could ever
give her Alpha...or a wolf to her mate.

 

Everyone began to gather around the grass area
below the deck, which is where Tristan and I stood with Anya and
Luke, as well as Alpha and Luna Evans. They were using the deck as
a homemade stage allowing the massive amounts of people to see us
clearly.

 

Looking around I noticed that a lot of the
females from high school weren't a part of our pack anymore, having
met their mates and joining their pack. We had a lot of new female
faces in the crowd, being that our male pack members have met their
mates and brought them in to join our pack.

 

Suddenly the entire place quieted down just as
Alpha Evan's began making his announcement. Welcoming Luke and Anya
as the new Beta of the pack. Jewel's parents came up on the deck
and presented Luke and Anya with a sword.

 

Something that's been in the pack for hundreds
of years, it was a way of showing how one Beta passes down the
responsibilities to the next generation of chosen Beta's. Sworn to
stand like a soldier by his Alpha's side. Accepting it graciously,
Luke and Anya took a step to the back as it was our turn.

 

"First and foremost I want to wish my son a very
happy birthday. Twenty-one years of my life have flown by so
quickly and your mother and I are so proud of the man you've grown
into." Alpha Evans announced turning to face Tristan. This caused a
round of applause and a few shouts of "Happy Birthdays" to come
from the crowd. "You're going to make a remarkable Alpha and to
have such a level minded woman by your side to call your Luna, we
couldn't ask for a better thing." Alpha Evans patted Tristan on the
back proudly.

 

Kneeling down before Alpha and Luna Evans we
were presented with a golden key, one that symbolized protection of
the entire Moonlight Monhegan Pack. "Do you Tristan and Annalise
accept the duties of protecting, loving, and nourishing the pack
into one of greatness?" Alpha Evans asked sternly.

 

With that, Tristan and I both agreed with a "We
accept to protect, love and nourish the pack into one of
greatness." Thankfully Tristan filled me in on what I needed to do
at the ceremony beforehand, otherwise I'd be completely lost.

 

"Well then, please welcome your new Alpha and
Luna." Alpha Evans said waving his hand before Tristan and I who
were still on our knees with our heads bowed. Alpha and Luna Evans
leaned down to kiss the both of us on our cheeks, which meant I
could stand up now; whew, thank goodness.

 

Applause roared through the crowd along with
screams of joy and happiness from the pack. It felt so good to know
they approved of us and looked forward to us being their Alpha and
Luna. Happiness filled my heart as I smiled internally.

 

Just as I stood up and straightened out my body,
I felt Tristan's hand shoot out and grab my own. Looking down at
him with a smile, I wondered why he was still on his knees. Did the
old man need help getting up now?

 

"Everyone, please can I have your attention for
a second." Tristan called out loudly causing the crowd to quiet
down again. "I have one more announcement." He began causing me to
give him a strange stare. What else does he have to announce?

 

Tristan looked at me nervously, causing my
breath to stop short in my throat. I began shifting nervously from
foot to foot, because I could sense his anxiousness? "Lise, I love
you so much and couldn't ask for a better mate." Tristan began
causing me to smile at him for being so sweet. He was announcing to
the pack how much he loves me, how adorable.

 

"Mate...my Luna...it's a life long
commitment and you've already said yes to it." Tristan breathed as
he reached into his pants pocket and produced a small box. "I know
we're still young, but I love you and I already know you're the one
I'm spending the rest of my life with, so will you say yes to
marrying me?"

Chapter 13: Duty Calls

 

Lise's POV

 

My mouth dropped open in shock as everything
around me began spinning causing me to become lightheaded. Are you
freaking serious? This is supposed to be the biggest event of
Tristan's life. His twenty-first birthday, the day he's announced
as Alpha and here he is down on one knee pulling off the most
heart-stopping surprise of my entire existence.

 

The contents of my stomach swirled around
reminding me of an out of control cyclone and I could feel myself
swaying back and forth unsteadily on my feet. Staring down at this
selfless, too good to be true man on one knee in front of me...a
chaotic yet serene feeling washed over me.

 

It's as if my heart stuttered to a stop, then
re-jolted itself just when I inhaled a sharp breath. The tears that
welled up in my eyes made Tristan become a blurry blob before me.
My right hand instantaneously flew to cover my mouth as Tristan
held onto the left, waiting patiently for an answer. The sounds of
hushed murmurs of "Aww's" and "How sweet!" were heard from the
crowd.

 

"Answer the man!" A voice that sounded an awful
lot like Troy shouted from the crowd bringing me back to the
present. "Yea, what're ya waiting for?" Max added cupping his hands
over either side of his mouth so it echoed through the entire yard.
"He's not getting any younger!" Of course this caused everyone to
laugh.

 

Tristan gave my hand a reassuring squeeze, I
guess it was his way of telling me that no matter what my answer
may be, he'll still love me no matter what. The sweet gesture made
my heart clench in my chest. Ultimately forcing my body and mind to
come up with my final decision.

 

In my heart I always knew that he'd propose to
me one day, I never thought it'd be this soon though. We were a few
weeks shy of our three year anniversary. I guess when you know,
there's no point in prolonging the inevitable. We're practically
married anyway.

 

Allowing the tears to finally spill over felt
like someone opened up the flood gates of a dam for the rush of
emotions to release itself. A slight whimper escaped my lips as I
nodded my head up and down eagerly, muttering a barely
intelligible, "Y...y-es." I probably looked like a babbling bawling
baby right now, but I didn't care.

 

My legs felt like total and complete jelly and
before I knew it I collapsed on my knees in front of Tristan just
as he finished slipping the ring onto my finger. Luckily, his
strong arms caught me as my body slumped toward his. Taking my face
in both his hands Tristan brought our lips together.
