Everything turned into a blur around me. All I could see was Lexi, and she looked amazing in her dress. The ceremony happened oddly fast. I felt our bond grow stronger and almost took a step closer to her. Interesting. Bolt purred, “I like it. We feel her stronger. Not super strong but stronger.” I agreed, “I like it too.” I slammed my lips on hers. Bolt declared, “MINE!” I said, “Ours. All ours.” Bolt purred, “Officially and everything.” I grabbed Lexi’s hand and ran back through the doors of the house.
We went up the stairs and I gaped. Matt hadn’t shown me this side. It was amazing. Haley and Lexi popped away to get her into her second dress. My dad growled, “Seriously son, these bridesmaid dresses?!” I turned and looked. Oh god. I said, “I’m surprised that…” I heard a growl. I chuckled, “Never mind.”
Eric bounded up the stairs. He demanded to know, “Where is she?” I pointed, “Over there giggling about the second dress.” He took off. Eric linked me, “You are going to lose it about this dress. Do you know which is your room here?” I answered, “Yes, I think I can control myself.” Eric only snorted in reply.
Eric had Haley pop him away to use his ten minutes. Cameron linked me, “Oh the days when I used to do a lot with just ten minutes. I don’t know if she would smack me again for saying her boobs are to die for in this dress. Your mate is my new favorite person if I get to play with Reagan’s boobs tonight.” I rolled my eyes.
When Lexi came around the corner my only thought was, she would be coming soon in a whole other way. Bolt howled, “We can work with seven minutes. If we can’t well it’s our damn wedding, they can wait.” I agreed. They needed to smell me all over her before they saw her in this dress.
I moved to her, picking her up and carrying her out of the room. I couldn’t do another single thing until I was inside her. I made her come quickly. Everyone was going to want her, and she was mine. She looked amazing. Bolt purred, “Our mark is on full display because of how she did her hair AND now she reeks of us.” I agreed, “True.”
My dad linked me, “Your time is up. Get your ass down here, boy.” I retorted, “I told you I could do a lot in seven minutes.” Lexi and I ran down the stairs. Everyone howled and I could see several people smirking at me. I didn’t give a single shit they knew what we’d done.
I grabbed Lexi when it was our turn to hit the dance floor. I linked Cameron, “You told her about the song.” Cameron grunted, “Didn’t.” I closed our link. I didn’t need to ask what he was doing. Lexi just liked this song apparently. She was perfect.
Nadine came up to dance with me next. Afterwards Susie ran up, “I’m next! Mom says it’s past my bedtime, and I said I’d go as soon as I got to dance with my big brother.” I laughed. I linked my dad, “Did you sneak upstairs?” My dad replied, “I’m just checking on my grandpups. Kevin is back with his mate. She’s a very nice girl.” I told him, “Her name is Sadie. Is she marked?”
My dad snorted, “Of course she is. What do you think he was doing all this time? What ALL of them were doing. There are more couples sneaking around on this top floor than at a frat party. it’s madness.” I said, “Don’t look too hard for Cameron.” My dad huffed, “I already saw him slinking back to the party. Reagan’s in the shower I guess.” I said, “Ok then.”
I danced with several people when I saw Lexi cutting back for the corner and stiffened. She insisted Sophia be invited and I hoped she didn’t change her mind. I grinned broadly when she demanded Sophia’s group have fun.
Alpha Jackson said, “That’s some woman you’ve got there, Alpha Chase.” I replied, “I know.” When she joined me again Sally came up and whispered, “Time to cut the cake.” I linked her, “I thought Ted would be about the schedule.” Sally smirked, “He’s uhhh busy?” I laughed, “You mean getting busy. Does Lexi not know the schedule of events?” Sally snorted, “Hell no. We wanted her to have fun.” I replied, “Got it.”
Lexi smeared icing on me. My dad linked me, “That’s a trap. Don’t do it back. No bride likes icing on their face.” I grumbled, “Fine. Tomorrow though.” My dad agreed, “Tomorrow is fair game.” Lexi left to check on the twins.
The second she disappeared up the steps Cameron came up and hugged me. He said, “I’m so proud of you big bro!” I teased linking him, “Me? You got to play with your mate’s boobs.” Cameron wiggled his eyebrows, “I almost wept, they are so large and…” I cut him off, “I got it. Thank you.” He smirked.
I saw Luna Emmaline step back from Alpha Lucas saying the bride needed her. She popped away. Beta Dylan groaned, “AWWWW COME ON EMMALINE! Why you gotta do me like that? I brought her candy, Lucas!” He got in Alpha Lucas’ face who was growling. He said, “Now, now, Emmaline is WITH the Bride. You can’t charge off or my super special fun sized fairy ninja goddess, who is missing too…” He trailed off and scanned the room.
He gleefully announced, “In fact all the fairies are missing. MISCHIEF IS AFOOT PEOPLE! BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR MY SHOW!” I linked Eric, “Is Haley with you?” He growled, “She was but she just popped away.” I said, “My guess is she’s with Lexi. That’s where Luna Emmaline went.” Eric retorted, “I wouldn’t know. She didn’t say anything, she just popped away.” I bit my lip.
I asked Lexi about it, and she teased me. That woman was something else and all mine. Luna Emmaline popped back to Alpha Lucas’ side. Dylan sang, “THERE SHE HAS COME TO SAVE THE DAYYYYY!” I rolled my eyes.
I could tell Lexi wasn’t here anymore. I excused myself after a few moments and took the stairs two at a time. Eric was standing in the girls preparation area. He said, “They were here, I heard them pop away.”
I linked Kevin, “Are you on Emma and Emmett?” Kevin answered, “Yes, they are sleeping soundly. I am outside their door with a monitor.” I asked him, “Where did Lexi go?” Kevin stuttered, “Ummm that’s more Kyler’s job. He’s back you know, guarding her. We are both back.”
I linked Kyler, “Where is my mate?” Kyler said, “Uhhhhhh Blaine and I plead the fifth.” I surmised, “So, you’re with Blaine? Which means Reagan and Lexi are together with Haley.” Kyler answered, “Yes.” I said, “Ok then.”
I looked at Eric, “Do you know where they are?” Eric nodded, “Yes, and I can’t tell you. They are fine though. I’d tell you if they were doing something dangerous. They are definitely not in danger, and they are still in the territory.” I nodded, “Good enough for me.”
I linked Kevin, “Congratulations by the way.” Kevin replied, “Thank you, Alpha.” I linked Kyler next, “Congratulations.” Kyler replied, “Thank you Alpha.” Eric said, “The wedding was very nice. Congratulations, Chase.” I nodded, “Thanks and you got a holf couple.” Eric snorted, “My dreams have all come true.”
I warned him, “If Beta Dylan hears you said that he’ll think it’s some massive plot.” Eric argued, “Beta Dylan thinks my life is some massive plot out to get him.” I said, “True enough.” Eric and I stood and waited. I sighed because this was not how I wanted to sneak away with Lexi during our reception. It was ideally together and involved naked fun times.
I grumbled, “You reek of your fairy.” Eric replied slyly, “I should. I blame your wife and that dress she picked out. I’ll have to send her a thank you note.” I laughed, “I think that the dress is just an excuse you are using.” He shrugged, “I can’t help it when her boobs are practically begging me for attention.” I commented, “That seems to be a popular opinion around here today.” Eric agreed, “Of all the bridesmaids’ mates, yes. Even Beta Matt tore his mate out of that suit.”
I changed the subject, “The cake is good.” Eric smirked, “I’ll have to try it.” I asked, “You haven’t even gotten cake?” Eric shrugged, “Boobs cannot be ignored when they are begging to be played with, Chase. Especially my Angel’s. My in laws are assassins. I have to make my Angel happy.” I snorted, “Sure, go with that.” Eric grinned, “I intend to.”
He held his head and sighed. I asked, “What?” He answered, “Haley found out that on the wolf front Reagan wasn’t allowed on the floor at the Summit because she wasn’t a Luna. Haley says that’s stupid since Reagan was there and that mates should be allowed.” I agreed, “She’s not wrong. That is dumb.”
Eric said, “I agree. All of the mates that came with our party were out on the floors.” I smiled, “I’ll just start doing what I want and seeing if anyone says anything.” Eric said, “In my experience, they do not.” I chuckled, “Yeah, well you’re you.” Eric said, “If more people did it, they couldn't say anything. Plus, we have a new council. Any Alpha worth a damn would agree. It’s absurd to make someone sit in a hotel room and not be social when they came with their mate. Plus, you are nothing to turn your nose up at. No one would say a damn word to you either.” I nodded, “That is true.”
Haley and Lexi popped back in. I grabbed her and pulled her out of Haley’s reach so she couldn’t pop away again. Eric linked me as he grabbed Haley, “She could just pop to Lexi.” I explained, “I gotta give myself a head start.” Eric replied, “That doesn’t help with a fairy.” I grumbled, “Or Hood. They are so damn fast.”
Out loud he gave me shit. I gave it back because I’d heard he’d gone missing for over an hour at his wedding. He wasn’t even phased because of course he wasn’t. He was Alpha Eric Conners. Lexi wanted to go back to the reception, and I nearly groaned. We should get a room.
When we returned, she was asking after Cameron. Bolt grumbled, “We came down here because of our brother? He got lucky at our reception. He’s so mean.” I told him, “It’s not his fault.” Bolt huffed in my head. Matt linked me, “Twenty bucks on Reagan went into labor.” I wanted to smack myself. Of course, that’s what it was.
