Ascension of a Gamma

Chapter 75

Chapter 75 Forever Yours

~Anna

“You look so beautiful, Anna,” said Lexy, dabbing at her eyes.

“Thank you, Lexy… for everything,” I said and gave her a tight hug.

“Won’t you at least tell me what happens after? I heard Aunty J stressing over the menu for tonight.”

I didn’t know how the ceremony would proceed, and they’d been keeping their mouths sealed.

“Well… we, your loyal subjects, enjoy a night of feasting and drinking and some alone time with our

mates…”

I sniggered, surprised that she could be so bold when it came to Carson.

“… while you and bro copulate somewhere else.”

Oh, Goddess…

“I think I’m joining you all in the feasting and drinking, instead.” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“No can do,” she said, shaking her head as she placed a hand on her hip. “Besides, you won’t be able

to resist him… or so the elders say.”

My cheeks were fuming. Everyone knew!

“Can I come in?” asked Carson from behind the door.

Lexy answered the door and ushered him in. They looked cute together.

His eyes widened as soon as he saw me. “Wow.”

My lips pulled into a smile to keep the butterflies at bay. This was it – the day we’ve all been waiting for.

I never would’ve imagined that my simple path in life would take unexpected turns and lead me to

where, to who, I was happiest.

Carson held my hands. “Aiden would be so proud of you right now, Bella.”

I took a deep breath. I wouldn’t have been who I am now without them. They made me strong and

taught me to be stronger. They… were watching over me, weren’t they?

Lexy smacked his head, earning both of us a chuckle. “Don’t you dare make her cry! I’m already crying

so she won’t have to!”

Carson rubbed the back of his head. “You hit hard,” he mumbled, pouting at her.

In seconds, they were in each other’s faces, making cutesy eyes and low murmurs.

Then, someone slammed the door open. Nobody here knew how to use doors.

“Sorry,” he said, but there was no trace of the word in his smiling face.

“You look gorgeous, Bella,” said Andrix, giving me a hug.

He had a polished wooden black box in his hand. “This was something that belonged to your Mother,”

he said, opening it.

I gasped and looked up at him. He took it out of its box and motioned for me to turn around. The jewels

felt cold on my skin, and as it hang around my neck, heavy. It was Mother’s – the same necklace I saw

in that painting.

“She wore it on her wedding day. They’d be so happy seeing you wear it, Bella,” he said.

My fingers touched the smooth surface of the finely cut diamond at the center and the string of

diamonds that lead to it. As the light hit it, numerous colors spotted my skin.

“It’s beautiful.”

I turned and wrapped my arms around his waist. “Thank you.”

“Thank you, little moonshine,” he said, hugging me back.

“Why are you all here? The ceremony’s… woah…Rigel walked in complaining, only to stop when he

saw me. “Liam’s going to have a hard time at the ceremony,” he said, chuckling

I blushed. The sweet couple glared at him. Andrix balled his fist.

“Calm down, man,” said Rigel, patting his back.

He opened his arms. “You look beautiful, princess.”

“Thank you, my knight,” I said, hugging him.

“Everyone’s waiting and I find you all here,” said Gale, entering. “You said you’d be quick.”

Andrix smirked. “I can last.”

Goddess, the sex talk never ceased when these two were together. How they could reference a sex

thing in every conversation was beyond me. If anything, I was shocked at myself for having understood

their banter.

Still, I was really happy for them, all of them. Lexy was head over heels over my best friend and vice

versa. Rigel was surprisingly a family man through and through. Gale was livelier than usual. And my

Uncle’s eyes always lit up when his mate was around. 1

“Come here, you gorgeous thing,” said Gale, hugging me to him. When he pulled away, Andrix held his

hand

My heart was melting. Everyone here had been with me through thick and thin. They’ve been through

highs and lows themselves. Now, we found where our happiness lies, and I could just explode into

fireworks at how happy I felt.

Today, however, wasn’t for drama. Tonight, was a joyous occasion.

I grinned at all of them. “Let’s get me married!”

I had an arm linked with Uncle Andrix’s. Torches lined the flower showered path towards my husband-

to-be. The pack members were all around us, chanting an ancient script that no one understood

anymore.

The most refreshing scent calmed me, but not the butterflies as they fluttered around my stomach. My

knees felt like jelly and my heart wanted to jump out of its cage. I’d envisioned myself doing this for

nights on end, but the wave of emotions that washed over me this moment caught me off guard.

I felt like running away, anxious to face my Alpha. My hand patted the soft fabric of the skirt, my feet

kicking then stepping. At the same time, I was excited to see him and start a new chapter of our lives.

As we got closer, his face became slightly visible from the full moon. The river was quiet. He was still.

We reached the end of the path, and Andrix finally let me go.

“I’m truly happy for you, moonshine,” he said before walking away, disappearing into the gathered

crowd. Somehow, I knew he’d find Gale.

Turning my gaze to my love, I gave him a smile. A chill ran up from my toe to my spine, making me

shiver.

Liam chuckled.

Taking a deep breath, I dipped my foot past the water’s surface.

Freezing!

A hand stretched out from in front of me. “Come.”

Liam’s warm hand was comforting as I shivered from the cold. He guided me in slowly, the water now

up to my waist. 1

“You look beautiful,” he murmured, his head resting at the crook of my neck.

I inhaled sharply as he kissed and sucked on his mark. “So fucking gorgeous.”

“Liam… the chanting.”

It was getting louder. It sounded clearer this time, but I still understood nothing.

“I can’t wait to spend my life with you, my love,” he said, kissing the back of my hand as he paced back.

“With the Goddess’s blessing.”

Through the dark, I could make out the solid outline of his firm and bulging contour. His irises gleamed

a dark red as he kept his gaze fixated on me. Slowly forcing the waters to part for each step, we circled

around each other seven times.

My eyes never left his form. His burning gaze made it impossible to look at anything else but him. He

demanded my full attention, and it was his.

As the chants continued, faster, almost incomprehensible, we met again right at the center.

Liam’s scent clouded my mind. The water was no longer freezing, the chants seemed far away. It was

only him and me.

He raised his right arm, and from his fingers, droplets of water wet the top of my head, cascading down

my forehead. Intricate patterns, similar to the Alpha Duel’s death mark ran along the length of his arm

to his chest.

I gasped when I saw it.

“It’s different,” he said calmly, pointing to his left side. Upon his left pec was a beautiful moonflower in

bloom, in the same inky black color, with vinelike patterns emerging from beneath it, swirling,

intertwining, creeping along the length of his left arm.

I raised a hand to touch it, when I noticed that the same patterns were on my arm. “It’s Her mark,” he

said.

Liam placed his hands on the neckline of my dress, tugging at the lace.

“What are you doing?” I whispered, heat creeping up my cheeks.

He simply grinned, his tongue licking his lips, a mischievous glint in his eyes.

“I want to see it,” he said.

Before I could ask him, I heard a rip as the lace parted. The sleeves were forced off my shoulders, then

down to my elbows.

“You ruined my dress,” I whisper-yelled.

“It’s beautiful,” he whispered.

Following his gaze, I looked down to see the same blooming moonflower just above my left breast. The

patterns continued to my left arm, up until the tip of my fingers.

Liam tipped my jaw so I would look at him.

“You’re beautiful,” he said softly, sending a shiver up my spine.

His hand found mine under the water, then he raised it above his head. In the same manner he did

earlier, the droplets fell from my fingers into his head.

“Alpha,” I whispered.

“Luna,” he replied in his low baritone voice.

My eyes went wide as the droplets rose from our heads, glimmering in a light blue. It circled us

overhead, spinning faster and faster around the outline of the full moon. Then, in a wide burst, lightly

showered the two of us.

Liam had to close my mouth. He kept me in the dark on how the ceremony would proceed. This was a

traditional wedding for werewolves, for the Alpha and Luna, and it was rarely held. It was possible for

us because of Helia; Lexy divulged.

We were asking the Goddess, Herself, for Her blessing. It was also meant to kept me safe. I assumed

it was because I was wolf-less.

As the mist fell upon us, the patterns began to glow. His glowed a light red like the glint i n his eyes

while mine glowed a faint blue. With the light coming from us, I could clearly see his face for the first

time tonight.

His half-lidded eyes held adoration, sending tiny sparks throughout my skin. I touched his cheek lightly.

He leaned in and closed his eyes.

My heart pounded in my chest, my breathing ragged.

I love this man.

He was my mate, my Alpha, and my everything.

I love him with every centimeter of my being, to the moon and back.

The moonflowers on our chests glowed a bright white. I moved closer to him and placed my hands

around his neck, the pack forgotten. For now, I needed to feel his lips on mine.

I closed my eyes as the lights glowed brighter. I felt it envelope both of us, but it could’ve just been my

imagination. My mind was more drawn to the softness of his lips. I moved i n sync with him, and parting

my lips, gave him permission to plunge his tongue inside.

Slowly, his tongue swirled around mine. Sucking the air out of me, he kissed me until I felt my lungs

about to explode.

“I love you,” he whispered, his warm minty breath fanning my face.

Keeping my eyes closed, I leaned in for a quick kiss. “I love you, too, my Alpha.”

Cheers and howls erupted from all over us. I hadn’t noticed the chanting had stopped.

“Look,” he said, pointing to his chest. The moonflower was still there, but this time,

smaller. And from its core, it looked like a wolf’s head emerging. “The Goddess has given us Her

blessing.”

I looked down on my chest, embarrassed at the erect nips, and saw the same.

You’re my blessing, Liam.

He pulled me close to him and kissed me again until my head was dizzy.

“Mrs. Rose,” he murmured in my hair. “You look gorgeous half-naked, babe.”

My eyes went wide, realizing my top half was exposed. I crossed my arms on my chest and turned my

back from the pack.

Werewolves can see at night!

“They’re not allowed to look,” Liam said, chuckling. He led me out of the waters, on the other side of the

river. Was he…

Heat crept up my cheeks. Liam’s laughter rang in my ears.

“You didn’t know I was naked?”

I nodded. Nobody told me anything about this!

Still laughing, he pulled me to his side and kissed the top of my head.

“Come. We’re leaving,” he said.

My brows furrowed. “Where?” I asked, confused.

“It’s our first night, babe. I don’t intend to fuck you, up against a tree,” he said, smirking.

I slapped his chest then crossed my arms. My cheeks were definitely red now. His remark brought me

back to the night he proposed to me.

Ah… that was embarrassing. Out in the open…

I yelped when he suddenly swept me off my feet.

“My heart can’t take any more of this, Liam!” I complained.

He chuckled, his chest vibrating. “Rest your heart, my love. You’ll need it for later.”

Oh, Goddess!

I covered my face with both hands. I wasn’t against it, but it was still embarrassing! Now I see why I

could understand their innuendos from earlier.

The night air blowing on my wet lower half made me shiver. I hugged him closer, resting my head on

his chest for warmth.

“We‘re resting in a cabin up ahead then were heading off to the airport,” he said.

“Where are you taking me, Mr. Rose?” I asked playfully.

He flashed me a grin. “On our honeymoon, Mrs. Rose.”

“And where would that be, Mr. Alpha?”

“Hawaii, then Paris, then Madrid, then Tokyo. We’re going away for a month so I could fuck you with no

one interrupting. No pack duties, no raids, no nothing. Just me and you, making love all day long… and

night.”

My poor body…

I slapped his chest hard. While it sounded very, very tempting…

“You’re going to kill me, Liam!”

“I’ll smother you with my love, Mrs. Luna,” he said, chuckling.

My cheeks heated up. My core clenched at the thought of being with him, just the two of u S, with none

of them around. My nips rubbed against my arm, which were the only thing covering them from his

lecherous eyes.

“I… I also want to take you out on proper dates, Mrs. Rose.”

My eyes widened.

“Ha-ha! We did skip that part.”

“I’ll make it up to you,” he said, grinning. “I promise.”

He didn’t mention his birthday. I almost forgot this month was his birth month. What kind of gift should I

get him? 1

I’ll think about it on the way…

“Liam…”

“Mm… yes, Mrs. Rose?” he asked playfully.

I smiled. I was officially his in every way and him, mine.

“Mr. Rose…”

He growled.

“… Thank you.”

“For what?” he asked, grinning like an idiot.

“For everything.”

“Ah!” I felt myself getting turned around then slammed into a tree.

Liam nipped and sucked on his mark harshly. My body trembled in anticipation as I let out a low moan.

“I can’t…” he said, his voice strained. “You smell… so good…” His hands roamed my body, one

cupping my breast while the other slid up my thighs then parted my lips

“Liam.” I gasped when he plunged two fingers in, easily.

Ah… can’t believe I was this ready for him.

“You look so fucking gorgeous, babe,” he complimented in a husky voice.

His fingers pumped in and out of me, curling against a particular spot. His hot mouth latched onto my

breast, sucking and tugging at my nipple.

“Oh… Liam.”

My hand found his length which was already leaking precum. I wrapped my fingers around it. They

weren’t enough for his girth. Slowly, I stroked him up and down, making him moan.

That beautiful, beautiful sound…

I swiped my thumb over the engorged head. He hissed.

“Anna,” he moaned, pumping faster. I moved my hand faster, following his rhythm. Hard and heavy, he

throbbed in my hand, leaking his seed.

His mouth left my breast to capture mine, muffling our moans. I smirked as he bucked his hips, urging

me to jack him off faster. I gasped for air, feeling my release draw near.

“Ah… Liam.” His dick was hot in my hand and it throbbed endlessly.

“Cum for me, Anna,” he growled, slipping his fingers out to circle my clit harshly.

“Cum now!” His fingers plunged inside me. It sent me over the edge. My juices coated his hand at the

same time his cum coated mine.

Panting for air, he put his fingers on my mouth so I could taste myself. I sucked and licked my juices

clean, moaning at the sweetness. I followed it right after by licking his cum off my fingers. He tasted

sweet and musky… and I liked it. I really, really liked it. I closed my eyes as I savored his taste. 1

Sex was gross, but I wouldn’t want to have it any other way. With him, it felt right. It felt good. And it

made me bolder.

Liam growled. I opened my eyes to see him staring back at me with lust-filled eyes. His tongue was

inside my mouth in an instant. The thought of him tasting himself aroused m e further.

He carried me in his arms again. “I’ll have to do the super-fast thingy or I’m fucking you right here, right

now,” he said, growling.

Goosebumps rose on my skin. My walls ached to feel him between them, filling them up over and over.

I unintentionally let out a moan at the dirty thought. It hurt. I needed him now, but not here.

He growled and inhaled sharply; jaw clenched. He was controlling himself, but he wouldn’t last for a

minute if I took longer to answer.

“Do it,” I whispered.

A smirk settled on his lips. He raised me higher and pulled me closer, securely to him. “As many times

as you want, my love.”
