EPILOGUE
Jaidyn’s POV
I sighed in pleasure as the cold breeze passed. My heart thundered as I smelled the woods that surrounded the castle where I lived with my mate.
Home. Traian.
A soothing elixir for my soul, his name lingered in the back of my thoughts. As with living with someone other than my own family, being mated takes some getting accustomed to but Traian and I managed to cope. He was so patient with me every day. He was also very protective, making sure I was constantly taken care of. He didn’t often wander far or leave me alone.
I turned to look at the people cooking and setting up for our celebration outside, among them were Claire, Evan, their daughter Clara, Adam, Sally, Kate, and her mate David, Jane, Jaxon, their son Jacob, Mom and Dad, and the Grevis Pack locals. As the sun peaked above the treetops, everything appeared to gleam golden.
Cayen was not here and had a business trip in the United States while Anna had something come up. She was supposed to be here, and even though I had assumed she would run into Cayden during my wedding, she didn’t. While Anna went right away after my wedding, Cayden has just been able to make it to my reception. I still desired for the two to meet nevertheless.
“Hi, Luna Jaidyn!” one of the children who was running around greeted me.
I waved at the boy with a smile. The people here in the town call me that no matter how many times I said to them they can call me by my name. I have also been much more connected to the people in the Grevis Pack especially when I made their cultural tradition of being officially into the pack by cutting the palm and letting my blood join that Traian who was their Alpha. It was still vivid to my memory how Traian was so worried about cutting my skin but it healed quickly and didn’t leave any scar. My big mate was overprotective of me.
I breathed deeply as I closed my eyes, taking in the floral smell of the gardens’ newly blooming flowers. I smiled at the scene around me and since I knew Traian was around. It is one of the changes I have gone through. I can heal quickly and get stronger, have so much stamina, and can sense my mate through the bond.
My fingers ran over the fine hand embroidery of the green scarf around my neck that Traian had given me back then. A diamond ring wrapped on my ring finger
Yes, Traian and I have been married for four months now. I couldn’t be happier since everyone who is important in my life is around to witness one of the most meaningful days of my life.
I walked back inside and strolled to the back door, knowing my mate would be there. I then noticed his enormous black wolf emerging from the forest. Our eyes met, his blazing gaze fixed on mine, and my heart skipped a beat.
I put a hand on my slightly rounded belly as my shirt clung to the curve and tiny bump of my stomach. I smiled, overcome with genuine joy that a tiny part of Traian and I had grown healthily inside of my body.
He was only about ten feet from me when he shifted midstep. He moved without skipping a beat, getting closer and closer till I could feel his heat and smell his rich scent until I felt his heat and inhaled his enticing scent. He picked his clothing, sat on one of the chairs, and quickly got dressed.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
When he was close enough to me, he gently and with consideration for my stomach pressed me against his body. I felt him rub the tip of his nose up and down my neck, smelling me. His chest let out a deep growl, and the vibrations cut straight to my heart. I let out a quiet sigh and grabbed hold of his arms. My wedding band caught the light and gleamed.
He moaned, sank to his knees, pulled up my shirt, and caressed my stomach with his broad hands. His palms dwarfed my abdomen. He crooned, “My little one,” and leaned forward to kiss my belly.
The baby kicked softly on one of his palms as I ran my fingers through his smooth hair and smiled. He made a quiet, heartfelt giggle and smothered my exposed stomach with kisses, “He obviously loves you. And you will be smitten as I am with him when he comes out”
“You’re right, I know I will be.” He stood and caressed my cheek.
When we heard Claire’s voice, we both turned into the house and, with his arms encircling my waist protectively, stepped inside together.
Claire gasped, “I can’t believe him”
Concerned, I asked, “What happened?”
“Cayden kidnapped a girl”
My eyes widened while Traian simply laughed. I glared at him and he quickly went quiet, giving me a shrug. “Did you know this?”
“Yeah, and just so you know that’s his mate that he kidnapped on her wedding day”
“His mate? Really?”
“But yet, it’s not proper to abduct her on her wedding day and then give his second name to her just because his name sounded the same as the groom’s,” Claire grumbled.
Traian smirked, “It’s the first time he fronts his second name-Jace,”.
I was intrigued by the name of Cayden’s mate so I asked, “Does he know her name?”
“Yeah, Anna Stewart”
My eyes grew wide, “Oh my gosh!” and chuckled, “She’s my best friend”
“What are the odds?” Claire smiled, shaking her head, “I guess he will be alright then”
I turned to face Traian, “I’m so excited for them!”
“I guess we will be witnessing their love story soon together,” he said, kissing my forehead.
I nodded and rested my head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat which didn’t fail to make me calm. Like a soothing lullaby.
“I love you,” I whispered.
“I love you too, my mate” He smiled at me and leaned down for a kiss, one that was gentle and swift.
