I wake up in an empty bed feeling nervous about what I am about to tell my family. I mean I know they will support me. But I still feel bad it is so close to Kate’s big day. Wondering where Griff went to, I stretched and sat up planning to get out of bed. But in that moment the door to our room opens. Just like Friday morning Griffin comes walking in with two mugs of coffee in his hand and a bright smile on his face. And just like he did Friday he gives me my mug, k*sses my cheek, and settles back into bed with me.
“I cannot believe you are willing to move in with me so much sooner than we said we would. You have a lifetime of me bringing you coffee in bed to look forward to” He beams at
me.
It’s a small thing but the fact that we’ll have these small things. Life will undoubtedly become very busy for us. Just starting every morning having a coffee in bed sounds. amazing.
“I love you Griff, and I can’t wait to start our life together,” is my only answer.

Because it is as simple as that, whatever may be there I love Griffin and I am sure we will have a happy life ahead of us. Now it is just a matter of telling my family. When we finished our coffee we took a quick shower together ignoring the obvious tension between the two of us. Both for a lack of time and because it would be tempting fate. We just have to hold out for two more weeks. It would be ideal if we could wait until I definitely moved in with Griff. But if we cannot hold out

that long, and if Griff loses his control after the event that is fine too. Missing him for a week would be rough but that’s something we could survive.
We said we would all have breakfast at Kate’s place and I decided to head out a little earlier. Griffin suggested doing so, this way we can ask Kate if it would bother her if I tell everyone about moving in with Griffin. I should have known better than to think Kate would be bothered by me telling something big like this. She squeals again jumping up and down before hugging the both of us. Tim is a lot calmer than my dear sister, I am glad he is. Because if they would both be this hyperactive they would drive everyone away. However, the moment Kate releases us he walks over, hugging the two of us and congratulating us.
“What is Tim congratulating the two of you for?” Dad’s voice suddenly rings through the living room.
Kate eagerly nods at us, telling us once more without words that she doesn’t mind us stealing a bit of her thunder. Let us all sit down so the breakfast Kate made us doesn’t get cold and then I tell you like I planned. As always Mom can’t stand waiting and she rolls her eyes, everyb*dy else chuckles at her. Dad however whispers something in her ear. She smiles back at him with one of those bright smiles I only ever see her give him, This is the kind of love I dreamed of as a little girl. This is the kind of love I wanted to find in my mate. A best friend and the love of my life in one person.
For so long I had given up on that dream, I figured it was not for me. They made me believe that it was me, that I was not

worth being loved like that. Being able to love like that. Now I found it all in Griffin. Dad was trying to comfort Mom, but little did he know he gave me extra confirmation that what I was doing was right. Confirmation that it wasn’t about me being pushed into doing things quicker than I had wanted to. It wasn’t about me, giving in to Griffin because he didn’t trust me. He wasn’t the only one that lost control. Two nights ago | almost begged him to mark me even if I was not ready. What this all was about, was that our bond was so strong that not being together hurt us.
“Everyone, when I get home tonight I will give my two weeks’ notice to the library. I will need two weeks to settle my affairs. but when the two weeks are over, Griffin and I will pick a date and then, we will move in together and complete the mating process” I told my family when they finally sat down.
Similar to when Kate announced her pregnancy everyone got up hugging and celebrating us. Grandma admitted she was going to miss me. Mom on the other hand was happy that my not living with them was no longer because I was bullied and abused and had to flee my pack. But because I moved in with my mate like I was supposed to do.
The rest of the day passed by in a happy blur, by the time we got home I hated I had to say goodbye to Griffin again. Griff obviously, hates saying goodbye to me too. He doesn’t let go of the hug, not until his b*dyguard tells him they need to go twice. Mike is a kind guy, who told me he cannot wait for me to be his Luna and Queen. Making me feel better not only about myself but about the very near future too.
This weekend wore me down and all I wanted to do was crawl

in bed and go to sleep. But I have so much work to do. I love the fact that Isabella is helping me learn everything I need to know about becoming a Queen. And I am excited about taking the next steps for my future, but it is a lot. Coming with a lot of pressure and a lot on my plate. So after a long hot. shower and changing into some comfortable clothes. I start up my laptop to get some work done.
I typed the letter to my boss at the library, I’ve decided to give him two weeks’ notice like my contract requires me to. This way I have the last week, to pack up my stuff and say my goodbyes to family members. Even if I would still be seeing them often, it wouldn’t be as much as I would when I was living with them.
“Darling, knowing you, you’ve started settling your affairs right now. Don’t worry about a moving company Dillion and Colin, Jessa Gerald and me are coming to pick you up when the day comes” I smile at Griffin’s text
He knows me so well, and knowing I get to drive to the castle with three or four cares takes a load off. Next up I send an email to Isabella, explaining my plan for my introduction to the pack. With a little explanation about why I want it to be something a lot more lowkey than she might have expected. Emailing our queen while on a first-name basis still feels a bit foreign to me. She insisted on it though, and I guess I would be the same if my children would bring home their mate.
Of course, I had already texted Jessa about my plans, and I asked her to go shopping for the right outfit with me this. Friday. I hoped to get the half day off so I could leave early. Shop at the mall close to the pack. Without Griffin knowing I was there, he would want to go with us but he cannot know. what we are shopping for. Krystel gave me her number, and it

Jessa hung with her. a little more and she was very onboard. I just didn’t want to make Krystel feel obliged to join me because I was her cousin’ s mate. Or because I would become her queen. I am ready. with all the tasks I need to finish today, so now I am sitting on my bed. Twirling my phone around in my hand, going back and forth on whether I should invite her or not. Griffin let me know he went to bed. So when I get a text message I am. startled and drop the phone on my mattress all before I have even read the message. The only thing I saw was the first word “Sorry” Heart beating erratically I picked up the phone to read the rest of the message.
