STUNNED SILENCE. IT CAN be described as awe, wonder at the glorious couple hand-in-hand, bound by a ceremonial cloth and kneeling at the altar of the Goddess in a pond of sparkling water.
For the guests, it is awe. For family and friends of the bride and groom, it is a moving scene that brings tears to the eyes. The joining of family. The bonding of a couple. It is more than a joyous occasion. It is hope, it is love, it is a vow.
However, for the Alphas and their plus ones (excluding the human mate because she does not grasp the severity of the situation) their stunned silence is just that. Stunned.
They look at each other for verification then confirmation that Alpha Ulo River is indeed marrying an Alpha.
