“I’ve got this under control, old man” I uttereti as we walked into his office.
“She was mated and you didn’t tell me? Is she even your mate?” My father uttered and I sighed.

and I have it under control. She had a chosen mate and he doesn’t want to let her go but I’ll handle it” I muttered and he
“What if he doesn’t agree to let her go?” My father uttered and tilted my head.
“Then I’ll kill him, it’s as easy as that” I uttered and he nodded slowly.
“I trust you to take care of it but if you need my help, tell me” He uttered and I rolled my eyes,
“I won’t need your help, bye” I muttered but his voice stopped me.
“She can’t be announced as your Luna if your mark isn’t on her, Damon” He uttered and I rolled my eyes.
“I know that”
“You have to get that man’s mark off her and replace it with yours then mate and mark her, I can see you both didn’t mate on your wedding night” He muttered and I turned to him with a raised eyebrow.
“And how
to you!
that?” I questioned and he scoffed.
“When I mated with your mother on our wedding night, I was all over her the next day. Every minute I wanted to….”
“Shut it old man, goddess!” I exclaimed before rushing out of his office as a cringy feeling surged through my body.
I heard him laughing inside and I rolled my eyes before walking away.
When I got out, I saw Clara talking to my mother and sister. She seemed like she was telling them her story.
“Oh dear, he wanted to make you share? He’s an animal” My mother uttered as she grabbed onto Clara’s face.
As if noticing my presence, Clara turned to me and watched as I walked up to them.
-we need to start now, can I have my wife back now?” Luttered as loutstretch
my hand towards Clara.
My mother pulled away from her and Clara immediately placed her hand in mine and I pulled her up from the bench with our eyes never wavering away from one another.
“You both look so cute together. Damon is going to treat you right because he’s your soulmate and your soulmate is meant to love and cherish you forever. You’ll never make her share, right honey?” My mother questioned and I turned my attention away from Clara to her.
Instead of saying anything, I just gave her a slight nod then interlocked my fingers with Clara and led her towards the balcony that overlooked most of the pack.

The trumpet sounded and I watched as the pack members gathered up immediately. Those who were coming from a long distance had arrived yesterday and were staying at the pack house.
“That’s a lot of people” I heard Clara’s quiet voice behind me and I turned to her and saw that she seemed nervous which made me smile. She always seemed tough and collected, it was amusing seeing her this way,
“You shouldn’t be nervous, you’re my wife. Every woman here is envious of you” I murmured and she rolled her eyes.
“Narcissistic much?” She murmured and I grinned.
“Always” I murmured and my breath temporarily seized when she flashed me a smile.
“Damon” My father’s voice sounded, snapping me out of my trance. I cleared my throat before turning to him and he nodded which meant
we were about to begin.
I grabbed Clara’s hand and led her closer to the edge so everyone could see her properly.
My father greeted everyone and said everything he had to say before directing the attention to us.
“Today is a special day because my rebellious son here has finally found his mate and they are married to one another” He announced and Loud murmurs immediately erupted through the air.
“That’s enough” My father uttered and most of them quieted down but a few were still murmuring and talking amongst themselves.
“Silence” I ordered and everywhere immediately went silent. Not a single sound could be heard.
Clara turned to me, probably wondering
g how much power and authority I had which made me smile. She hadn’t seen half of it.
My father gave way for me and we took his spot.
“Everyone this is my wife, Clara Donovan and you’re to give her the same respect you give me. If by any chance one of you disrespect her, 1 will take it as an offense and a challenge against me and you all know how much I hate those who disrespect me. Do you understand?” I
uttered.
“Yes Alpha!” They all chorused.
“Would you like to say something?” I questioned as I turned to Clara and she immediately shook her head.
“No” She uttered and I smirked before turning back to the crowd.
“My wife would like to say a few words” I announced and she turned to me with wide eyes.
“But… She began.
“What’s the matter, dear wife?” I uttered with an innocent look on my face and she glared at me before turning to the crowd who were eager to hear what she had to say.
Clara took a deep breath as she raised her shoulder and it was almost like all the nervousness she was feeling immediately disappeared and was replaced by confidence,
“Hello everyone, it is an honor to be in your midst and to be among this pack. I hope you’ll be kind to me and welcome me as a member of your pack” She uttered and they all immediately cheered for her.

She smiled then stepped back and instantly interlocked her fingers with mine.
“You weren’t nervous anymore” I murmured and she grinned.

“How can I be when I have yo
funny inside.
“Another cheer for the new couple in our midst” My father commanded and everyone immediately cheered and I watched as Clara glanced around with her eyes shining bright with happiness.
Something clicked within me as I watched her and at that moment, I was suddenly aware of all the unmated male eyes on her.
growled slightly then signaled to Luca who immediately ran towards me with the coat in hand.
Clara flashed me a questioning gaze but I ignored it as I draped the coat over her shoulders.
“That sexy back should only be for my eyes only, Wife“…
