Il was a lot for her to take in, I wanted to make it as easy as possible for her. I asked for Maya to remain in the Packhouse to give her

something to ground her as everything around her changed. When I showed her to her bedroom, she just crumbled. She began sobbing

and my heart was breaking with her. Atlas whined and howled inside my head and wanted to kill something, Anything, but he could sense

that she needed us and let me stay in control. She cried for almost an hour and I let her. I could tell it was something she needed in order

to begin her healing. Mental, emotional and even physical. As I held her, I was painfully aware of how many bones I could feel. We needed

to get some weight on her.

Kelly, can you make sure whatever clothes the girls buy tomorrow are a size or two bigger than they currently are? They are both

severely underfed.’ I mind linked Gillian’s sister.

Underted! What did they do to them over there Alpha?

She asked

y dont know, but I intend to find out. The other girls they had working at the packhouse also appeared malnourished.’

11/ take care of them, Alpha.

‘Thank you, Kelly. I appreciate this.’

Anything for our Luna’

‘Dinner is ready,’ Gillian interrupted. ‘Your father texted the cooks earlier. Since they weren’t expecting us until tomorrow. They are

out on the town for dinner.’

Ok. Thanks,

“Dinner is ready, you ready?” I said and she nodded, “Oh, one more thing. That’s a closet for you to use, but as this was an office, we

have to share a bathroom.” I winked as I took her hand. I loved the blush that came to the surface and the giggle that came out of her

mouth as I grinned at her like an i***t. This beautiful fragile girl had us whipped already. I would do anything to keep hearing that

delightful sound.

As we went down the elevator, I explained what was about to happen, “I have to present you to the staff and members present that

you’re my mate and future Luna. Don’t worry, you don’t have to take any responsibilities until you’re ready to have the Luna Ceremony,” She nodded her big eyes at me, “My father won’t be in until after dinner. They didn’t expect us today.”

When we arrived at the formal dining room, everyone stood and clapped as we made our way to the head of the table. I felt her

nerves and felt her grip my hand tighter. I couldn’t help but feel nothing but love for her and the friends sitting around the table.

“Thank you for that warm welcome. I am pleased to introduce my mate and your future Luna, Celeste.” I purposely left out the

surname. I knew Pierce wasn’t her last name and I would prefer not to lie to my friends.

“Welcome Luna,” they all said.

“I would also like to present Maya Cassera. She is a newcomer to our Pack and I hope everyone treats her with the same warmth and

respect as you’ve shown towards the Luna. She will be staying on the third floor until further notice.”

“Welcome!” they said or nodded towards her.

We sat and began dinner. I looked and noticed someone was missing

‘I thought Daniel was supposed to be back by now,

mind

linked Gillian.

‘He reported in yesterday. He was delayed. He hasn’t found what he needs yet, but feels like he’s close.’

‘We need to pull him in soon. If he hasn’t found anything in another week, he needs to come home and reassess. The pack needs their Gamma.’

‘Yes Alpha. I’ll let him know.’

We ate dinner. The girls were eating fairly slowly and not very much. I shifted towards Celeste, “Is everything OK? Do you and Maya

‘You can come back now,’ I linked to Gillian.

I walked through the office door and she flew into my arms and kissed me. I quickly caught her, wrapping my arms around her waist

and returned the kiss. Alpha howled at the taste of her lips.

“Ahem,” I heard behind me and I wanted to growl at the interruption. I let Celeste down reluctantly. If blushing was a contest, we had

a winner. I turned to Gillian, who was wagging his eyebrows at me.

“You have the worst timing,’ Imind linked him.

‘You’re the one who said we could come back,’ he said.

I smiled I didn’t know she would do that’

‘Rawr’ he taunted.

“Now that both tethers to the Blood Moon Pack have been severed. It’s time to officially join our pack. I will ask you if you accept and swear fealty to the pack and when you accept, I will make a small cut on your hand. You should then be able to feel the new Pack

connection click into place.”

‘Son, we’re home. I would like to meet my future daughter-in-law and Luna, join the pack link.

my father mind linked me after I felt Celeste and Maya

‘We’re in the study,’ I responded.

“Welcome to Crescent Moon Pack,” I smiled at Maya, “You guys have a busy day tomorrow. So I will let you get some rest. Love,

someone wishes to meet you before we retire for the night,” I said. She smiled nervously and nodded, I took her hand and pulled her next

” to me. Hoping she felt the bond as strongly as I did and my presence would soothe her as much as hers did me. When I felt het relax,!

smiled smugly in my mind. Atlas was wagging his tail.

We heard a knock and then the door opened. My father stepped in and gasped, “Bella?” He whispered. Letting the bottle of
