Lyra's POV.
"What do you mean?!" Athena sparked, letting go of Alexander immediately. "I already apologized; I said I was sorry, so why else? Why are you canceling our wedding?" she questioned.
"Relax; that isn't what I meant. You're still going to be my Luna, just not right now." Alpha Alexander responded with a stern look.
"but why? Did something come up?" Athena was in full panic mode; I hardly got to see her like this.
"The controversies surrounding the mate matching ceremony were a bit too much. The elders think it'd be wise to hold on for a bit before deciding to get married. We'll definitely get married, and you'll be my Luna," Alexander reassured her, but his eyes told lies.
I didn't know if Athena was smart enough to do this.
"Do you promise?" she asked with an unconvinced look on her face.
"Of course, sincerely," Alexander replies right before planting a kiss on her forehead.
