47 Ceremony

Amelia POV

After we leave the office, we head back to our bedroom to get dressed. Eli is starting to squirm, so I sit on the chair feeding him while Lincoln showers. I look down at this perfect little boy who will grow up surrounded by love. He will know every day how lucky he is to have his family. He will become a leader this pack deserves learning from his father. Thoughts of the Darkmoon pack enter my mind. The pack deserves the type of leader Elias was. “Amelia” I hear Lincoln say my name and it brings me out of my thoughts. “What are you thinking about love” he says, sitting down next to me. “The Darkmoon pack”, I say. “I spoke with Tristan and let him know that we will be meeting with them tomorrow around twelve.” I smile and nod. “Amelia your the Luna of this pack.” “You are a part of every decision I make going forward.” “We are partners and your decision carries as much weight as mine does.” I feel warmth spread throughout my chest at his words. Lincoln is unlike any Alpha I’ve ever known. I don’t think even Elias would have said that to Freya.

“What do you think we should do with the pack?” I look at him confused. “The moment I killed Atlas the pack became ours.” “So, you’re the Alpha of the Darkmoon pack?” “I can either make them part of the Nightfire pack or I can speak to Elder James about appointing a new Alpha.” “What are you going to do?” “Amelia, I just told you this is our decision and we will make it together.” “So what do you think we should do?” “Honestly, Lincoln I’m not sure.” “There are so many obstacles to them joining our pack.” He smiles “what obstacles love?” “Space for one, the pack isn’t small and we would need to have housing for all its members.” “Ok what else?” “Lincoln, I don’t know how about uprooting all their lives to bring them here.” He smiles “I think those are both valid points, anything else.” “Not that I can think of right now.”

notice that Amelia looks like she is million miles away even though she is staring at our son. When we start to talk about the Darkmoon pack I already know what I would like to do, but as I told Amelia, this isn’t my decision alone. “I agree that it will be a change for the pack members and we will have to do some building to accommodate this many new pack members.” “But” she says with a smile. “As you said they deserve leaders like Elias” I say taking her hand. “Besides this pack is our son’s birthright since Elias had no children of his own.” I see tears form in her eyes and one runs down her cheek. I get down on my knees in front of her. “Amelia talk to me.” She rests her hand on my face. “You are the most amazing man I have ever known.” I place my hand over hers “no I’m the luckiest

front of me. She opens her palm and the most beautiful bracelet is lying in her hand. “Lily, you didn’t have to do that.” “Yes, I did.” “It’s not only a gift but also a spell.” I look at her confused. “The bracelet is enchanted to protect you when I’m not there.” I wrap her in my arms again. “Thank you for being my friend and my family.” She pulls back and heads toward Pheobe. She gives her a necklace. “I know you don’t need the protection but you’re part of our family now, so this is for you.” I see a tear roll down her cheek and I’m happy she has found her

I notice that Charles is still here with me and Pheobe. “Well ladies, I know I’m not your father by blood but I would be honored to walk you to the stage for your ceremony.” I fight back the tears “I would love that.” He turns to Pheobe “I would love that too.” He stands between us and we both wrap our arms in his. The doors open and we walk through, stepping out into the garden. It is so beautiful. I can’t believe that Lorraine arranged all this in such a short time. As we walk toward the stage, I see Lincoln standing with Eli in his arms. I assumed Lorraine would be holding him but I guess I was wrong. I look to the left of the stage and Elder James walks up. I love that he will be the one presenting us to the pack. When we reach the bottom of the stairs, Charles hugs me and kisses my cheek

I drink and the moment I pull the chalice away I feel the overwhelming connection to the pack. I close my eyes and try to focus on putting blocks up so I can get my baring’s. Lincoln wraps his arm around me and I open my eyes. “Are you alright love?” I smile “I am, thank you.” We turn to face the pack. “Nightfire pack welcome your new
