I Am The Luna

ATTICUS

I stand up and help her up. As she takes my hand, I feel her slip another Polaroid into my hand. My eyes flash, the curiosity to see it right now as she winks at me. And I can't resist not wanting to wait. With a swift glance around, I switch her to my other side, placing my hand on her waist as I look at the image she's given me this time.

Fuck

This time she's on her back, her back arched, her eyes closed with her hands covering her breasts. I lick my lower lip, my throat suddenly dry as I slip the image into the same pocket.

"You are not sleeping tonight."

She simply smirks, but when we reach the front, I can hear her heart racing as we stand opposite one another.

"Ready?" I ask, knowing this was a big moment for both of us, but it's her I'm worried about. I know what I want.

"Absolutely," she replies.

"Before I mark you, I want to give you this. It's the ring my mother wanted you to have. It belongs to you," I say quietly. Her smile softens, her eyes widening as she looks at me, remembering the ring. "I love you. And I and this pack will forever protect, serve, and respect you. You are our Luna, the one we can all agree we have waited for, for years."

A few people chuckle, agreeing wholeheartedly, as others vocalise their agreement.

Smiling, I glance out at our people, seeing nothing but acceptance, love, and excitement on their faces. I turn back to my beautiful Luna.

"I love you, and I shall for eternity." I continue as she holds out her hand and I slip the ring onto her ring finger, kissing her softly, I smile at her, but she's simply staring at me with her eyes glittering with unshed tearsUpstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

"Alright, let's-" she cuts me off, placing a hand on my jaw, taking a deep breath as she closes the gap between us, cupping my face with both hands.

'I want to say something first,' she whispers through the mind-link.

I frown, slightly concerned, and nod. 'Sure, I say. Leaning in, I kiss her cheek, giving her the time she needs as my face shields hers from the large crowd around us.

"I love you, Atticus. I love you."

I close my eyes as emotions surge through me. Words that I have wanted to hear yet at the same time thought she needed a

little more time to say them.

I wrap my arms around her and rock her gently, feeling happy beyond words.

Her heart is racing. "I love you too, Angel," I reply, not caring that I'm repeating myself, because these are the words I plan to tell her every single day until the day I die.

"I love you," I murmur.

She lets out a weak laugh. "Love you too, Alpha, I love you too."

She hugs me tightly before we part, and she looks up at me.

"I'm ready," she adds softly. I nod as I kiss her deeply.

"Then mark me," I murmur, stepping back, wanting her to mark me first.

Her eyes glitter before she leans in, cupping the back of my neck as she opens a few more buttons, keeping her eyes locked with mine before her gaze flutters to my chest and then to my neck. She then leans in, taking a deep breath.

This is it. The moment she makes me hers... and bites into my neck, a sting of delicious pain mixed with intense bliss. I feel

the sparks intensify as pleasure dances through me, rushing straight to my dick.

A soft moan escapes her as I swallow hard, my eyes blazing as she slowly steps back, licking her lips.

"My turn..." I growl huskily, my teeth elongating as I lift her necklace up, holding it in my hand as I watch it dig slightly into her neck.

I like how that looks... I smirk slightly and so does she, knowing exactly what's going through my mind.

Her breasts rise and fall as she breathes heavily, her eyes fluttering shut as I lean in, gripping her waist tightly with my other hand as 1 sink my teeth into her flawless neck.

She gasps and my own eyes fly open as I feel the bond complete.

An intense spark that feels like a zip of electricity rushes through me and I can feel every part of her that touches me even more strongly.

Her heart is racing as I extract my teeth. I take a napkin from the tray that Patrick holds and press it against her neck, making sure no blood gets on her.

She smiles up at me as I glance at the tray in Patrick's hands that holds the knife that I will use to initiate her into the pack

"Do you, Adriana Hidalgo, the queen of my heart, take me, Atticus Payne, Alpha of the Whispering Mountain Pack as your Alpha, to rule beside me as my Luna?" I ask as I create a thin cut across both our hands, Patrick holds a white cloth beneath

our hands, catching any spilt blood.

"I do,"

There is no doubt in her voice.

"And do you take this pack as your own?"

"I do, with all my heart," she answers. "I accept you as my Alpha, my mate, and I accept the Whispering Mountain Pack as my home."

We join hands and I feel the pack link snap into place as everyone cheers, and drinks are passed around as merriment breaks out.

The entire pack is happy to become complete. We are an incredible pack, but the one thing it has lacked is our own

Moonlight, our Luna.

Finally, my Luna is where she belongs.

I lift her up, spinning her around as I kiss her and she kisses me back as sparks rush through us. This is one of the happiest moments of my life.

"I love you, my Luna."

"And I love you, my sexy Alpha." She winks at me as she glances down at her breasts and I raise my eyebrow as I look down, realising she has another polaroid. "You can take it if you like," she whispers.

Oh, I am enjoying this tantalising game...

"I hope I get these daily. I'll need something to look at when I'm working," I murmur as I run my fingers down her neck and breast, as I take the image out.

I stare down at it, a picture of her on her knees, legs parted, her arms crossed over her bare breasts with her tongue out.

Fuck

It feels fucking hot in here.

"We're leaving. I want you now," I say quietly, just about managing to pocket the sexy image, wanting to ravish her right now. But before I can even take her from here, Zade walks over.

"I don't think we'll catch you tomorrow and we're leaving early. Mind if I have a word? I don't know where Valerie's gone," he says to Adriana, much to my irritation.

Adriana smirks. "Sure," she answers as she pulls away from me, giving me one more wink before she walks off with Zade, leaving me hot and restless.
