Chapter 0167
(Author POV)
Finally, it was “show time.” Guests were seated on all three floors of the large opera house, while presenters, members of the wedding party, and a few other important guests waited in rooms backstage. along with their (admittedly necessary) security details.
Each backstage room was equipped with televisions that allowed the occupants to see and hear what was happening on stage. Trusted members of the Movement were operating all of the audio and visual equipment required for the event, and they were also manning each of the doors in and out of the large
facility.
Sheila was waiting in the largest backstage room. She was accompanied by her parents, Margie, Beta Robert, Nick, Jenny, Luna Jane, Alpha Randall, and her bridesmaids. Sheila was dressed in a beautiful form-fitting wedding dress that had been custom made out of lace and silk, and her neck, ears, and hair
were draped in expensive diamonds.
Despite the fact that the event was also supposed to be a memorial, almost everyone in Sheila’s room seemed focused on the upcoming nuptials and found themselves to be in a relatively upbeat mood. (The) only exception was Margie, who was in a good mood but still-like always- 98% focused on Stephanie.)
While waiting for the event to start, Sheila excitedly talked to her parents and sister about her plans for
her new pup and the new life that she expected to have as Luna of the West Mountain Pack.
Meanwhile, James was waiting in a much smaller room, and the mood around him was much more
subdued. He was accompanied by Dr. Hyder and a few trusted members of the Movement including Joey
and Jessica. Despite being told everything was fine and was being handled, James insisted on
repeatedly going over their action plan again and again. In his mind, doing so was absolutely critical to
ensure that no detail was missed that could derail the success of their plan.
