Chapter Thirty-Seven
Alpha & Luna: Part Two

"I'm nervous...I don't know why but I am." I said as Braxton held my hand and drove us toward Trace's pack house.

His thumb traced over the newly sized engagement ring he had placed on my finger only an hour ago, "She's your sister my Gorgeous, you have every right to feel anxious as she takes this next step in life...but I promise I won't let anything pull you two apart, and I'm almost certain Trace would do the same for the both of you."

I let out a shaky breath and then offered him a weak smile in an attempt to pretend I was fine. He saw through it and kissed my hand gently, "Everything will be fine My Luna."

We drove onward and as much as I tried to relax I was still a ball of nerves when we finally reached their pack house.

We were greeted by Ryder and a very bubbly girl. "Alpha Braxton, Luna Harper I know our Luna Valerie will be glad to see you, but first, if I may...allow me to introduce you to my mate Zoe."

She smiled before casting her eyes down and bowing her head respectfully. "It's an honor."

"Oh please, we aren't anyone special." I said as I smiled at her, "And it's nice to meet you."

We talked momentarily before Ryder smiled and cut the conversation short.

"If you'll follow us, Valerie's in the office with my brother."

Ryder took Zoe's hand and Braxton remained holding my own before we followed after them.

This time I actually got to get a better look at the opulent pack house as there were no more flowy fabrics hanging off of the walls and the lights were actually on oppose to only candles lit.

I could see that it was a large entry way, obviously quite grand as a beautiful chandelier was the center piece in the foyer. The floor could possibly be white marble but the beautiful rugs caught my eye so I paid more attention to them.

Everything just seemed so luxurious I almost felt like I was in a prisitine museum.

Ryder knocked once before he opened the door slowly. Inside we found Trace and Valerie in a tender embrace. She turned and saw me and let him go before rushing over to pull me into a tight hug.

"I'm so glad you came, dude im freaking out."

I smiled and hugged her back, "oh Val there no need to freak out, you'll do fine and Trace will be right there with you the entire time."

She let me go and smiled but kept hold of my hands, "Thanks H...Oh Shit!" She said as she felt my ring then looked down at my left hand, "Harper are you getting married?!"

I felt the heat reach my cheeks as everyone was now focused on me...it was never my intention to try and take the attention away from her on her big day so maybe that's why I tried to hide my hand behind my back.

"Gorgeous." Braxton sounded sweetly, as he placed a loving hand on my back. "Go ahead."

I nodded, "Braxton proposed this weekend."

"Oh gosh...you've got so much to plan and do...oh, and what did Mom and Dad say?"

Once more I blushed as I had to admit I haven't told my parents. "Well the proposal is still very new to Braxton and I do we haven't had time to tell anyone just yet...but of course I plan on telling mom and dad, and the girls of course...but we don't have anything planned or set yet so it's strictly an engagment for now."

She was giddy now and as she held onto Trace's arm.

"Congratulations to the both of you but if we can table this for now...I'd really like to get my Luna presented." Trace sounded happily.

Once again Braxton and I followed Ryder and Zoe out of the office and we stood with Zoe and another girl immediatley joined us as my sister, Ryder, and Trace took their positions up front.

"Hello Morgan." Braxton said to the new girl who joined us.

"Alpha Braxton" she smiled.

"Morgan, I'd like you to meet my mate Harper Carson, Harper My Gorgeous... this this Ryders baby sister Morgan."

I told the girl hello but she was too wrapped up in her friend Zoe to hold a conversation with me, and I didn't mind at all as I wanted to focus on my sister right now.

Trace's words were similiar to Braxton's when he presented me to the pack, but Trace added his own loving mentions here and there.

Valerie looked absolutely picturesque in her signature red attire and when she was finally offically presented everyone clapped and howled with excitment, I clapped as well my own smile on full display.

The party was in full swing and for once I didn't mind actually just enjoying myself at the party as I danced all night with my sister before one of our handsome mates would come over and pull us apart.

Not that either of us minded much.

I rested my head against Braxton's chest as he expertly glided ya along the dance floor to the lovely song playing into the night.

"I love you." I said.

He kissed my hair and replied, "I love you...and thank you for loving me constantly and choosing me always."

I smiled and looked up at him now...he was crazy, he was the one who always put up with me and chose me.

But I wouldn't disagree with him, no right now I was enjoying my time with my Alpha and all I really wanted right now was a kiss.

And as if his wolf had heard me he bend down and kissed my lips obligingly.

"Mmm...you know, I think when we get home you're going to need to let your wolf have a run."

He nodded, "it had been a while since he's been out...and he does tend to get antsy when I don't let him out."

But I was thinking more along the primal side, as Braxton usually gets more animalistic after a run and I was looking forward to some fun alone time at home.
