Unable to suppress the worries about our future I had

absentmindedly started to play with the necklace Griffin gave me.

He noticed and of course, he knew the reason behind it too. Because he was amazing and he knew me better than I knew myself sometimes.

“Don’t worry Darling, I know this feels so different from how we became at home. Do you know why I gave you that necklace though?” He asked.

I was about to answer him I did, after all, he told me yesterday it was a thank you for making another one of his dreams come true. But Griff silenced me with a quick peck on the lips.

“Because you are everything I ever wanted in this life. I would not have been this happy about becoming a daddy if it wasn’t with you. If it had been with some chosen mate. I might have been able to learn how to love her. With you, I don’t need to learn how to love you though. With you, it’s as natural as shifting, as natural as breathing. Now that you’re pregnant I’m not just becoming a father. Our pup will be another testimony of our love for one another. So yes, at the moment we are struggling a bit, and just like you I wish we weren’t. But we are not struggling to love each other. We are just getting adjusted to this new life. And with all the shit that has been thrown at us, we are forced to adjust to all of it at the same time. Of course that is going to cause some

issues along the way. But tell me, darling do you doubt how much I love you? Do you doubt if you love me?” He ended his speech.

But he was right I didn’t doubt he loved me not for one bit. I don’t think I have ever really doubted it. I

believe it when Scared to we just met but deep down I always knew. That’s why I accepted him long before the six months were over. That is why if it hadn’t been for Hannah and David we would have marked each other long the first six months ultimatum I gave Griffin were over. He had never been as right about anything as he was now. We haven’t been together that long. Even for us werewolves we moved quickly, partly because we had to. Partly because we hated being away from each other, and the distance between the Silver Moon Pack and the White Oak Pack just had been too much.

We overcame it all, so it was silly to think we could not overcome this. We would, as we did everything. Because Griffin was right it had nothing to do with loving each other less. Part of the issue was that it felt like I never saw enough of him. And when I did it half of the time spent things. Or just sitting her was o next to each other both working, where we could hardly speak because we both were so engrossed in work. Soon things wouldn’t be as busy, after my maternity leave I would be able to take on a much smaller workload. When I did not have to rush my education to be at a certain point.

Griffin had abandoned work when I went missing, it was only natural. No one had expected him to just go on full speed when his mate was missing and presumably in perilous danger. He did however want to keep his promise to only work weekdays. So he

needed to work harder than ever to catch up with the backlog of work. Even trying to get ahead a bit. He could slow down a little and still be able to play catch up. If he hadn’t made up his mind to be all caught up by the time our pup would be born. He wanted to be able to take the first two weeks off so he could help me. And properly get to bond with our little one. An idea I loved, I just needed to keep in mind what we were doing this all for.

Griffin’s date idea was perfect, both in going on a date at a time when we needed it. And the date he took me on. I swore to myself that here two towns over where nobody knew us, I would forget all about my responsibilities for a few hours. Just focus on the man I love, when we get back home I will remember this day and Griffin’s words. And not get so insecure about it. I would not let my hormones rule my feelings and emotions.

“Did you kids have fun on your day off together?” Isabella asked as soon as we sat down. We did and even if we were here on official business to request them to let us invite not one but 7 humans to our wedding. Which was a big ask, I loved the fact that we were a family first and foremost. They would treat our request the same as they would everyone else. Just the way we spoke to each other was different. Not that Isabella or Rodrick were ever the type to be overly strict and businesslike. That’s why they were so loved as the leaders of the pack. They never acted like they were better than the rest of the pack. When the Moon Goddess created Alpha’s and Luna’s she wanted them to be the parents to the pack. The strict but honest and kind father figured. And the caring, nurturing mother who always had the best advice if youNôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

needed it. Rodrick and Isabella knew their roles and they had perfected them.

So we chatted about our date, about the furniture we looked at. How we never found a crib that matched the style we were going for. There was a lot of whitewashed wood, or worse wood veneer. It had seemed like the more natural style Griffin and I were looking for had gone out of style with the humans.

“Oh well there is no rush to get a crib yet, it’s best if you start with painting the room and put new flooring in if you want to. But you came here to request something did you not?” Rodrick almost interrupted us.

It was not like him to try and rush the conversation and I had no doubt he was delighted about becoming a Grandpa. I had overheard him talk to my father, asking if Dad would mind it if the pup would call Rodrick Pops. Trying not to pay it too much mind, I listen to Griffin tell his parents about how last weekend went. How Riven was a wolf too, how he panicked when he saw the Crown Prince. Rodrick seemed to be highly amused at the fact another wolf had often teased his son and called him names in the heat of the moment. It was comforting because it increased the chances of them granting us permission to invite Griff’s human friends and their partners.

“Well, I see why you would want to invite them to your wedding. And I agree that at the moment you had no other choice but to tell them the truth about who you are. However, your mother and I have some things to discuss before we can come to a

conclusion. I will let you both know of our ruling by the end of the

week” Rodrick told us, practically forcing us out of his office. Something was off about him, but I was sure he would tell us if he was ready for it. And I had enough to do today, so I thanked

them both and made my way over to my office.
