Chapter 33–Book 2 The Wedding and the End/ Part 1.

Jack and Nova returned to the clan with the happy news that Nova was pregnant. Everyone was over the moon happy and a party was planned for later that night.

David met Nova and Jack in Jack’s office for some privacy. He told them everything that went on and about her mother being murdered by the Sheriff.

Nova was saddened by the fact that her mother was gone, the sadness came from the fact that she never knew her mother. Nova did wish things could have been different between them but it wasn’t in the cards.

Her mother made her choices and Nova made hers.

“David stood up and hugged Nova, I am sorry you lived that life growing up. I wish I would have known, things would have been very different.”

“It is alright, Father, I came to terms with my relationship with my mother long ago. I am saddened that her life ended the way that it did. In the end, though she did make her choices be they good or bad.”

“Father, you did hear the news?”

“How could I not, it is all over. I am going to be a grandpa.”

He was giving Nova a beaming smile.

“I have some news that I would like to tell you both, I have decided to take the offer, Jack. I will be the next Sheriff of Argon County.” I

“I also have to tell you that Maggi has agreed to be my wife. We would like permission to live in the cabin that we are currently staying in.?”

Jack walked up to David and took his hand in his, you are more than welcome to stay here in the Clan, you are already a member after all.

With that, David said his goodbyes and told them that He and Maggi would be at the party later tonight. David wanted his daughter and soon to-be son-in-law to join them by the fire.

They both agreed as they watched David walk out of the office. Jack and Nova looked at one another, at that moment they knew that they had been given a wonderful gift, not just family but community as well.

They both decided to go back downstairs and see what was going on and some catching up. Everyone was happy with the gifts that Nova had sent them, the clan doctor was more than happy with all the supplies and equipment.

Nova also arranged for the hospital to have new beds and furniture. She and the doctor discussed her pregnancy and that she was to see him on Monday for a full check-up.

The kitchen was running at full speed, they were getting everything ready for the party that had turned into a BBQ. Nova tried to help but between Jack and the cooks she was banned from helping tonight.

This party was for her and Jack. They were not going to have her working on her party.

When they went outside Nova stood

in awe, all the trees were strung out in white twinkle lights, it looked magical. Candles were burning softly in glass lanterns giving everything a soft glow.

Garlands were hanging from everywhere made out of greenery from the forest. In the garlands here and there were wildflowers. Crystal beads were hanging randomly giving a soft sparkle to the atmosphere.

Three BBQ grills and pits were going, tables were being set up. Cubs were running around playing while trying to help the adults.

There was a huge table being decorated, Nova couldn’t tell but it looked like something you would put the wedding cake on at a reception.

A huge bonfire was roaring with all kinds of lounge chairs around it. Nova and Jack came upon what

looked like two thrones sitting side by side. It looked like something out of a wedding reception.

“Noticed that did you?”

Jack and Nova turned around to see a very happy Sam looking back at them.

“The elders decided that since you were both mated in the traditional ways that you were now husband and wife. This party is your wedding reception.”

“I have been instructed to escort the bride to her father’s house to get ready and the groom is to go back to his room and I will join him shortly to help him prepare.”

With that Sam stood next to Nova holding out his arm for her to take so he could walk her to her destination.

Jack gave out a chuckle…

“Mr. Big Bad Sam holding out his arm to escort a lady. You are going to ruin your image.”
