Thea stepped out of the small room in the mysterious cave, along with Ida. They both wore black dresses, only Thea's dress was more detailed as she was the bride tonight.
Manoeuvring through the dark paths, they left that room long behind. After one more turn, Thea halted in her steps. Her body froze, and her mind went numb.
With wide eyes, she stared at the very large space. It looked like an auditorium with the capacity of accomodating hundreds of people. Men and women of all age groups along with young kids- none of them younger than sixteen years of age- were sitting in the space.
The sitting arrangement was descending that made every person presentable to see the raised long platform at the end and centre of the space.
"It is going to be fine, Thea!" Ida whispered in her ear, sensing her shock.
Thea was told that many members of the pack along with all of Rees's family would be there. But she had not expected that many people in her wildest dreams.
