The rest of the feast continued without much drama. Everyone realized that there wouldn't be a mating ceremony tomorrow night, so they would have as much fun as they could on this one night.
It was a strange occurrence, to be sure.
Layla didn't remember the pack ever having anything like this happen before, where they had the Hunt, and the hunting ceremony, but there was no mating ceremony after it. And by the looks of everyone else, no one remembered it ever happening before.
Layla wondered what would happen tomorrow, then. Though, she did feel a thousand times more relieved. She couldn't deny it to herself though, that she also felt a little disheartened. If Henry had won, and claimed the right to mate her, she isn't so sure that she would have been as upset as if it had been Jake or Auburn.
She isn't sure that she would have tried to run away or fight it off.
