Xander’s arms were gripping me, holding onto my legs. Sparks were literally flying all over my body intensifying everything I felt. I felt my core tighten and I screamed his name as I came. My fiancé, because he was mine now, slid up my body and looked into my eyes and he lined us up.
My mate lowered his lips onto mine as he gently slid inside me. I pulled back and bit his marking spot lightly. Xander growled, “You are mine, Melanie McAlister.” I nipped him a little harder than I previously had on his marking spot.
My mate’s response was to ground into me. I moved my lips and kissed his neck whispering, “I am and you’re mine.” Xander increased his pace which had me whimpering. The intensity of this moment was so crazy. Everything felt like a live wire inside my body. This felt so amazing.
I cried out when he hit that spot deep inside me, “XANDER!” He growled, “Do you like that, Lovebug?” My mate thrust his hips hitting the same spot while I was panting. Xander nipped my earlobe whispering harshly, “Answer me.” I breathlessly answered, “Yes, my Alpha.”
Xander growled and started going harder. I wrapped my legs around him moving my hips in rhythm with his. I screamed as I came. My mate didn’t give me a minute of rest. He flipped me onto my stomach and kept going.
Xander had ripped through three pillows before I pinned and rode him by locking my legs behind his. The urge to mark him gripped me so tightly, I had to bite a pillow myself this time. We were a sweaty mess when we fell apart.
Xander simply popped us home as my eyes were fluttering closed. My mate kissed me, “Sleep, my little fiancée.” I murmured, “We have so many titles now… and I’m still not little.” Xander chuckled, “Sleep, Lovebug.” I couldn't resist.
I woke up and stretched before kissing Xander’s cheek lightly since he was sleeping. I grabbed my leggings and a hoodie and ran outside to start dancing. When I finished, I ran back inside and started making muffins.
A smile overtook my whole face because I was Xander’s fiancée. I really couldn’t believe it. I took the first several batches of muffins and dropped them off at the pack house. I came out and yelled, “Think fast.” I threw three baggies of muffins to KJ, Chason, and Fowler as I winked at them.
All three just shook their heads. Fowler had a mouthful when he mumbled, “Thank you, Muffin Luna.” I laughed, “You’re welcome.” I ran back into the house and made breakfast for the crew coming plus the Conners.
The men came in first, and Xander kissed me hard. I blushed when people started making catcalls. I buried my face in his chest when he pulled back. My mate kissed the top of my head. Xander linked me, “They can’t say shit, you’re mine. I’ve seen most of them doing a lot more than kiss a woman.”
I laughed and grabbed him a plate. My fiancé smiled saying, “Thank you, Lovebug.” I helped make a few more people plates. Haley popped in and grabbed a muffin. My future mother in law moaned, “God, these muffins are fucking delicious.” I laughed, “I’m glad you like them.”
Brady Conners told me, “That’s underselling how the family as a whole feels about them.” I grabbed myself a plate and sat by Xander as we ate. I kissed his cheek when I finished. I told him, “I need to go get ready.” I was starting to get a little nervous.
I quickly ran to our room and showered. I walked into our closet and picked out a fitted hoodie and leggings. I walked back downstairs, but no one was around. I looked at my phone noting I was early. Freya asked, “Early?!” Ok… really early.
I went back upstairs and grabbed my computer. I pulled my remote desktop to bring up my Resistance information.The Ring had been quiet. I was thinking something was in the works. We had dealt some serious blows to them and their organization….but I knew something was coming though.
I quickly set up protections on all the Kyle businesses as well as double checking Tristan’s… and my dad’s... and I found my mom actually owned a few things. I was about to put it down when I noticed an email alert from my protective layer of coding.
I winced seeing that Dalton and Dakota knew I’d protected their businesses now. They’d had a security company check it out. Well, just great. I looked at the time and decided to take a quick nap. I woke up when my alarm went off.
I quickly went downstairs. Mrs. Blanch winked at me and handed me a sandwich. I quickly ate it. She handed me a drink, and I nearly choked on it. I asked, “Is there vodka in this?” Mrs. Blanch laughed, “Just a dash. I thought you might need a little something.”
I hugged her admitting, “I really like you.” She smiled, “I’m close to cracking the muffin recipe.” I admitted, “I can’t wait to try them.” Mrs. Blanch kissed my forehead. I linked Xander, “We are about to leave.” Maybe…no one was here. My mate popped to me and kissed me.
My mate pulled back nuzzling my neck. Xander said, “Have fun. The women are all waiting outside.” I leaned back in for another kiss and then left. My Fiancé smacked my butt playfully as I walked away. I blushed and blew him a kiss.
I walked outside and Paige started honking the horn on my car and yelling, “LET’S SEE THE RING MEL!” I laughed asking, “How did you know?” Elise ran up and grabbed my hand answering, “I knew Alexander was proposing, and I have not been calm about it. Ohhh it looks so good.” I looked down, astonished.
Elise laughed, “I KNEW IT! You hadn’t even looked yet.” I blushed but admitting, “It’s beautiful.” My friends all ooh’ed andaww’ed over it. My mom gave me a light hug. She whispered, “It’s beautiful and very you. Are you happy?”
I smiled brightly answering, “I am really happy, mom.” Haley smiled interjecting, “Wolves are surprisingly really fucking good at picking out jewelry. Of course, my son's excel in that area too since they have Fae blood.” I agreed, “Xander did really well. The whole proposal was over the top and beautiful.”
Paige pushed me to my car saying, “We have the directions to the shop, and I want to hear the WHOLE proposal story.” I laughed. Once in the car my friend plugged in the address. Then Paige called Elise in the other car to hear the whole proposal story.
Paige yelled, “DAMN! He just set the bar for Dalton so high!” I laughed, “Are you ready for him to propose?” Paige smiled, “I mean... I wouldn't say no.” That meant yes coming from Paige. I asked Avery, “Your Mating Ceremony is Sunday, right?” Avery nodded, “Yup!”
I said, “That’s perfect! I should be able to be there. Paige said the brew should be ready Saturday.” Avery beamed replying, “I’m so excited!” I asked, “Do you have your dress, Ave?” She’d always wanted to wear her mate’s mother’s mating ceremony dress. Avery answered, “Chelsea was thrilled I wanted to wear her dress. So, I’m all settled.”
We pulled up to the store where the workers were actually waiting outside. I saw KJ, Fowler and Chason pull into the parking lot and waved them over. They got out of their car. I said, “If you want… you can come inside.” They all laughed.
Haley warned, “But you can’t tell Alexander what dress she picks.” I sighed because I really doubted my dress was here. We were ushered inside and the whole group got champagne. I’d filled out an online questionnaire about what I liked.
The woman working smiled and greeted, “Hello Muffin Luna, we have already pulled some dresses for you.” She walked meback into the dressing room where I got undressed and she helped me put on the first dress. It was pretty, just not what I wanted.
I came out of the dressing room to show everyone. Paige told me, “You look stunning.” I smiled, “Thanks.” Avery smirked, “But?” I answered, “It’s just not the dress.” That same conversation happened for several dresses. I wasn’t disappointed really; I didn’t expect to find my dress.
