Lyra's POV:
"That reminds me," she said. "When are you guys holding your mating ceremony"
"Choooook!". This time I choked. I struggled to get the food out of my airways and I was burped by Alexander. I haven't even gotten used to calling her mum and now this. I looked to Alexander to Bail me out cos he wasn't in support of any of this.
"Take it easy ma," Alexander said, coming to my rescue. "We would not be having the ceremony now. That will come at a later date. For now, we want to take things slow. I hope you can understand me?"
Alexander's mum chuckled nervously "No it's not a problem. I understand you both need to get acquainted with each other. Your father and I had no such issues because we were already friends before the mate-revealing ceremony. So we just did the mating ceremony after"
