Violet's POV
Well I was right! Felicia did cause trouble.
_ _ _ _
Today was the day of the wedding. Since we were living with humans, to legalize the wedding their way, we had get to married in a court. We finished the court wedding and we headed to the pack house to legalize the wedding 'werewolf style.'
I wore a beautiful white floral short gown with my hair styled with pretty white ribbons. My mum gifted me the diamond accessories I was wearing to match with my outfit.
Jake was wearing a black tuxedo with a beautiful diamond brooch attached to it. His tight well ironed trousers fit him perfectly as it clung onto his well toned legs. It was a loosed at the hem though. His hair was slicked back, and he had a stud black earring on his ear. He looked so hot, I hated to admit.
We reached the pack house after the court wedding and walked arm-in-arm to make our union seem believable. Kimberly and Thomas were the only people with us as they were our witnesses in the court.
We were welcomed and congratulated from the door until we got to where Jake's Father, the alpha, stood. We knelt down before him as we waited for his blessings, before we can begin the ritual.
As per the werewolf laws, whenever any member from the alpha bloodline was getting married, the priestess was supposed to tie the union as she was the closest to the moon goddess, but since the pack had no priestess with all the unrest of the pack, the alpha had to take the role as the second closest to the moon goddess.
He placed his hands on our head, and muttered some few prayers to the moon goddess.
"Go get them changed", he said to one of the omegas standing at his right. Only the loyal ones remained.
They led both of us to separate rooms to get us ready for the ritual. I was clothed in animal skin. A patch of nicely sewed animal skin was placed to cover my breast as it was tied tightly at the back, While a skirt made of the same skin was given to me to wear.
Beads were put on, all over my body by the omegas, starting from my neck, down to my ankle. I had beads as necklaces, as bracelets, waist beads, and ankle beads. I had some up my arms as well. Then some black ink were used to draw images that looked more like a child's doodle on my cheeks, arms, stomach, and legs. A large animal skin shawl was wrapped around my shoulders to cover my back and stopped just beneath my butt.
Everything I wore reminded me of cave men and the only modernized thing I wore were the jewelries, the gold ones. Gold earrings, gold anklets, and a very large and heavy gold crown was placed on my head.
We were finally done and I was led out side the pack house to the forest where the ritual was taking place.
Jake was already there waiting for me. There was a bonfire and everyone were standing round it. He was dressed same as me just that he was shirtless but the shawl was on him. He wore a skirt, with decorations almost similar to mine on him. Same beads and gold jewelries. Now that I've seen it on someone else the fashion of joining beads and gold metals as jewelries seems off and funny. But it was for a ritual so....who I'm I to question?.
Jake's Father wore a different attire. He had a long staff on his hand as well.
The ritual began with the alpha saying some prayers and offering burnt offerings to the goddess. Jake and I were made to circle the bonfire seven times, with the crowds singing in a language that was not to my understanding. After we were done, we bowed in front of the fire three times.
Then finally we were asked to seal the bond with a kiss. A fucking kiss!.
My heart was racing fast as I imagined what Jake will do. I don't even know if I wanted to the kiss to happen or not, a part of me wanted it. I left the task to Jake as I stared into his eyes waiting for him to make a move.
He came close to me, held my face in his hands and leaned in for a kiss. I closed my eyes and waited for the kiss. But what was I expecting?. The kiss came, but should I even call it a kiss?. it was more of a peck or even less. Our lips just barely grazed each other and he pulled out. I should have known.
But even in that short amount of time, the feeling was heavenly. His touch on my skin sent sparks all over my body that made me feel wet in a certain region. I looked at Jake uncomfortably or maybe nervously. Did he feel the same way? Was this normal?
"Oh great moon goddess, today we have joined the Future alpha of the crescent moon pack and his Luna in holy matrimony before you. May their union bring abundant blessing to the pack, may their union help us to find favor from you once again, may their union bring us to how we were before, a united pack, that was flourishing, the greatest and largest of all." The alpha said with his hands raised above his head, the staff in one hand. "I now pronounce you husband and wife. Future alpha and Luna of the crescent moon pack."
The crowd cheered and clap their hands. Some made mouth noises.
"Praise be to the moon goddess!" the Alpha echoed
"Praise be to the moon goddess!" The crowd responded.
Jake and I turned to bow to the crowd before a loud voice shouted,
"How dare you Violet! I warned you to stay away from Jake, but what did you do, you got married to him Instead. Do I look like a joke to you?" Felicia said as she came to stand in front of me with hatred filled eyes. Her gang members were at her back with the same look giving her support.
"A very big joke" I replied smugly. There was nothing she could do to me in front of all this people. I thought wrong.
"How dare you" Felicia fumed as she gave me a very sounding harsh slap that made my head move towards the right.
