I made my way to the kitchen where I knew the other's had brought Felicity after Jamie hit her. I saw her as soon as I entered the doorway, she was sitting by a table with something frozen to her face to try and bring down the swelling that would most likely occur. I guess she must have asked the others for some space or time on her own as they were nowhere to be seen or heard.

"Hey, how are you ?" I asked tentatively as I walked over to her

"Still hurts" Felicity replied in a low voice

"I'm so sorry you got brought into all this" I said cautiously as I took a seat next to her

"I was brought in the moment I knew I was his mate and he rejected me, it's not your fault" Felicity told me

"Why did you jump in and stop him from hitting me ? His punch wouldn't have hurt me as much" I said, I had been wanting to ask her all night why she jumped in to defend me like that

"I thought I was defending you as a Luna should, I didn't want to see him hurt you in any way. You've saved me plenty of times, I guess I just saw that as my opportunity to save you" Felicity explained

"You already have saved me, the moment you agreed to be my mate, the minute you let me mark you, you gave up so much to be here with me" I told her

"Did you mean what you said when you told them you love me ?" Felicity asked

"Yes I did mean it, I believe that's part of the reason why I imprinted on you. I'd been trying for so long to imprint on Sarah but it never happened, I know I've only known you a short time but you make me feel things I never thought I could or ever would" I began to explain

"Love being one of those feelings ?" Felicity asked

"Yes that along with happiness and joy" I answered

It was silent for a moment or so but it was a peaceful silence between us. A thought soon occurred in my mind, I saw this as my opportunity to as Felicity a question.

"Did you mean it when you told them you love me ?" I asked her.

Felicity looked shocked, maybe because I had heard her say that to Jamie ?

"Yes I did mean it, I wouldn't have said it if I didn't. I wouldn't play mind games or with someone's feelings like that, I'm not that type of person" Felicity answered

"I know your not, it's just when you said it, I hadn't expected you to say it like that" I told her

"That's not how I planned on saying my first "I love you" to you either, I wanted it to be special something we could look back on in years to come and cherish, maybe even tell our kids/pups one day" Felicity replied

"Well why not tell me now ? We're on our own with no one around to disturb us" I said trying to encourage her

Felicity shot me an uncertain look but I kept my gaze strong on her.

"I love you Kieran Templeton" Felicity smiled

"I love you Felicity Morgan" I replied

We both smiled at each other, both of our eyes filled with adoration and love.

"What about...him...." Felicity asked looking down

"He was sent home and told never to return here again, most of the other Alpha leaders all cut him from their allies" I told her

If it were up to me he really should have suffered more and had a more harsher punishment. I guess seeing as Felicity was fine and not harmed much I can't ask for much more than this. I took a quick glance at my watch and realised how late it actually was.

"We should think about heading to bed soon, it's getting late" I said

"What about all the others ?" Felicity asked

"All our guests have left, don't worry, I told the others that they could all see to the cleaning up tomorrow after the events of tonight" I explained

Felicity disposed of the ice and the towel that it was in to help her face. She walked back over to me. She looked tired and ready for crashing out.

"Want me to carry you ?" I offered

"No, I'm fine to walk but thank you for the offer" Felicity smiled

I held my hand out for her to take, she instantly placed her hand in mine but this time it was different. It felt like there was this sudden spark between us, pulling us even closer together. We looked down at our entwined hands and then at each other.

"Do you feel that too ?" I asked

"Yes but what is it ?" Felicity asked

"Something trying to pull us even closer together maybe ? Like our mating bond" I suggested

Felicity looked back down at our hands but stayed quiet. I guess I must have scared her, I don't want her to feel pressured into anything she isn't ready for just yet.

"Kiss me" Felicity asked in a low voice

"Are you sure ?" I asked her

Felicity looked up before speaking, "I'm sure, kiss me" She repeated

I held Felicity's face in my hands and leaned in and connected our lips. I never get tired of kissing those sweet lips of hers, every time we it feels like every kiss lasts forever but in reality its only a few minutes.

"I'm ready if you are" Felicity said, breaking the kiss

"Ready ?" I asked a little confused

"To mate with you, the only thing is, you'll be my first, I have had boyfriends but it never got very far I always wanted to save my mating for my mate" Felicity told me

"If your sure we can give it a try, I promise I'll be gentle, I'm like you too, I wanted to save my mating for....her but you know what happened there so you'll be my first and only mate" I told felicity.

We smiled at each other and quickly made our way to my bedroom, still holding each other's hands. Once in my room, I quickly closed my door and locked it. I pulled Felicity in close to me and kissed her again this time a little more full on.

"Remember if you feel it's too much or you change your mind, your not ready just tell me and we can stop" I reminded Felicity

"I know, I promise I will but I really do feel ready" Felicity answered

Let's just say, the rest of the night was the most special night of our lives. One I know I'll never forget as long as I live. Felicity cuddled in close to me after. I twirled some of her long hair brown hair around my finger.

"Thank you" I whispered to her

"Thank you too" She replied with a smile

"I am so happy right now in this moment with you" I told her

"I've been happy since the day I woke up here with you" She answered

We both fell asleep soon after. I held Felicity close to me. I don't know why but when I could smell her scent close to me, it gave me a feeling of comfort and warmth.

The next day, we had both slept in a little bit longer than usual. I didn't mind though, after what happened the previous night, we both deserved a bit more rest. I looked down at Felicity and admired how beautiful she looked in the morning light. I guess the morning sunlight sun light disturbed Felicity from her sleep as she soon began to wake up.

"Good morning beautiful, sleep well ?" I asked greeting her as she woke up

"Good morning handsome, I did sleep very well thank you, did you sleep well ?" She answered

"I did indeed" I smiled

"What time is it ?" She asked

"Coming up for 10 am" I answered her

"What ? Oh my, I've never slept in this long before, and what about you and your Alpha job and pack meeting ?" Felicity asked getting in a panic

"Relax, it's okay especially after what happened last night, we deserve it" I said trying to relax her.

We stayed cuddled up for a little while longer. I felt like I could have just stayed there all day but Felicity soon insisted on getting up, dressed and me seeing to what needed to be done. Since she was now officially my Luna, she should be in on the meetings as well.

"You know, after last night, your officially my Luna which means that you should now be in on all pack meetings and anything pack related" I told her

"I don't know if I'm that ready for anything yet, maybe I could go but just sit and listen to what is being said ?" Felicity suggested

It wasn't exactly what I wanted but I was happy with her response and agreed. We both got dressed then headed to join the others in my office. The meeting had gone by very easily, I knew most of my pack knew about the mating that took place the previous night, it was obvious with all the smiles on their faces any time they looked at either of us. I knew pack members could sense and feel the love that an Alpha and Luna held for each other.

I was about to speak to Felicity about something when I noticed my Beta, Alex standing there with an amusing smile on his face. I shook my head and gave him a stern glare which he knew to obey. Thankfully, he did. He held his hands up in a surrendering way before he exited the room.

"What was that about ?" Felicity asked confused

"Don't worry about Alex, he just likes to think he's funny when he's not" I told her

I walked over to Felicity, closing the large gap that was between us.

"So how did you find that ?" I asked her

"You talk about a lot of different subjects, at least your main priority is on all your pack members, old, young, vulnerable, your not too pushy with them, you keep a close eye on all your land and borders" Felicity answered

"At this moment in time, my main focus and priority is you" I told her and I held her head in my hands.

Felicity smiled going shy on me. I have no idea why she was so shy of me.

"Come with me, I have something I want to show you" I said taking her hands in mine.

"Show me ?" Felicity asked a little unsure.

"Nothing to do with what you saw last night, relax sweetheart" I told her as I led us both out of the room.

I led us both in the direction I needed us to go in. We eventually came to stop in front of the brown wooden door. The door had some purple ribbon tied across it and also there was a piece of white cloth at the centre of it.

"Why are we are ?" Felicity asked confused.

"Well I have spoken to all our pack members and we are all in agreement. Since none of us hardly use this room, I, and all our pack members would love to gift you the library, you know since your the only person who loves to read" I teased her.

"Your all gifting me the library ?" Felicity asked unsure

"Yes, we were thinking of getting rid of it but I've seen how much you love it in there and reading" I explained

"I don't know what to say....thank you, thank you to everyone" Felicity said clearly still stunned.

"All that's left to do is the unveiling of the plaque" I said motioning for Louis to remove the cloth. Underneath it was a golden plaque which had Felicity's name and that it was her library now.

"Want to do the honours ?" I asked offering Felicity a pair of scissors to cut the ribbon.

She excitedly took them and was about to cut the ribbon but Josh stopped her for a quick photo. Once the picture was taken, Felicity happily cut the ribbon in pure excitement.

"I wasn't sure what to do with all the other types of books you don't like so I've just left them in there along with the pregnancy books and baby books" I informed her

"Are you brooding already for an Heir ?" Felicity asked

"No, not yet but it helps to be prepared" I smiled at her.

I had my Alpha duties to get back to so I left Felicity in her newly named library.

I sat happily in the library reading a new book I had found. I still can't believe Kieran and all the other pack members gifted this beautiful library.

After a while of reading, I got up a walked about the room. I stood by the window and looked out into the woods. I was drawn to a space between the trees, I saw a sudden flash of something. Maybe someone running by I'm not sure. I decided that I should go out and inspect it for myself. I put my book back on the shelf then went to get myself ready to head outside.....
