Chapter 31: Under the full moon

"Knock, Knock," I bang against the door.

"Who is it?" she asked before opening the door.

"Open the damn door," I ordered her angrily.

The door opens quickly allowing us to see each other face to face.

"Liam," she called my name softly. Curious about why I was here.

I enter her home and close her door behind me.

"What is wrong son?" she asked worriedly.

"What was in the letter Paisley sent you?" I interrogated her.

Her eyes widen surprisingly, realizing I knew about the letter she received earlier.

"How do you know about the letter?" she asked me.

"Don't worry about that," I answered furiously. "What I need to know is what is in the damn letter."

Jennifer turns her back not wanting to look me in the eye.

"Mother!" I shouted.

She remains silent, standing within the same position.

"Is she fine?" I lower my voice and inquire her worriedly.

Jennifer turns around slowly. "She is," she answers.

I nodded. Happy she was.

"She's still a mate-less, she-wolf and misses you badly," my mother told me.

I turned my back and open the door about to exit her home. I did not want to hear what else my mother was going to say. Knowing she hated my one true mate. I just wanted to know if Paisley was fine, that was all. I found my one true mate and there was no way I was going to take her back. If she wanted to be with me. She would have stayed here and not secretly runs off.

"Liam," my mother called me.

I ignored her and returned home. She had to accept the fact that Avery was my mate and move on just like I did with my first love Paisley. I still loved her, but the feeling was not greater than what I felt for my one true mate.

*************

The day had passed by so fast, probably because I was dying for the ceremony to begin. I only had an hour and a half in preparing for the ceremony. Returning home. I went straight into my bathroom for a shower. After I was through, I dried myself and began to attire for tonight. I did not bother to get something to eat before leaving. Thinking about my little she-wolf finally realizing tonight that we belonged together had seemed to take away my appetite. I fixed my short dark hair and took another look at my reflection within the mirror before leaving my room. I looked great in my full black suit.

The garden was filled with young and beautiful she-wolves dress gorgeously, and male well attired in their suit, dying to know who they belonged to. The moon was nowhere yet to be found and so they had to wait and carry out the night in having small talks, drinking champagne, and contemplate who they think their one true mate would be.

I moved away from the crowd and went over to the fountain. I sat staring at the water while I constantly kept thinking about my beautiful mate. I sat up seeing the reflection of the moonlight within the water.

"It is time," I whispered excitedly.

The garden grew quiet. I no longer heard any conversation. There was only silence. I moved away from the fountain and headed back towards the crowd and there I saw she-wolves being taken away by their one true mate. It was beautiful seeing my pack members finding their mate; knowing mind will be coming to me soon. The moonlight did not affect me as it did with the younger wolves, for I had passed the age of eighteen and already knew that Avery was mine. It will only affect my mate for she was young and so when the moonlight hits her, she will have no choice but to come to me.

I stand within the middle of the garden waiting desperately for her. I waited for minutes until my minutes had turned into hours. Isn't she coming? I thought sadly. I turned my back melancholy walking away.

"Who is she?" I heard wolves who were unlucky to find their mate that night.

I turned around and there I felt my entire night lighten by the beautiful appearance of my mate. She was the most beautiful she-wolf within the garden. Everyone eyed her fascinated by her rare beauty. I could see within their eyes how curious they were to know who she was. It made me so proud as an alpha to know she was mine. My one true mate. The she-wolf I see myself being with forever.

My attractive she-wolf was attired within a beautiful red dress. Her dress showcases her sexy physique. Out of every female there, she was the one who was the most beautiful and I was proud that she was mine.

Her long white hair shone beautifully under the moonlight. Seeing her was as if I was staring at the moon-goddess herself. Nervously I saw her made a step backward away from the crowd. I reached for her quickly. Slowly she turned around and there our eyes met. It was the most beautiful night and the most wonderful moment of my entire life. She pushed me away and stood still gazing at her alpha, continuing to feel the compelling feeling under the full moon. Telling her that she was mine. She belongs to me. I could see within my little wolf's eyes that she wanted us to be alone, from everyone. I slowly reached for her small hand and gently pulled her towards the fountain. My mate examines the secret spot where we were.

"I know you would come," I said, wanting her to know I was waiting on her.

She lowers her head shyly. I smiled not wanting her to see. I enjoyed seeing my Luna being in such ways. Which was quite cute. I got close to her allowing our forehead to touch and held both of her hands. My wolf wanted to feel our mate's touch. It was a form of communication with my mate. Her wolf enjoys the touch of my skin against hers. Her eyes shifted into its wolfs form. Slowly she rested her face onto my chest, enjoying her mate scent. Frightened by what she did she removed her head from my chest, stepping backward.

"Ooww....,' her wolf howls as she tries to make her human form fight the compelling feeling.

Suddenly her dress burst apart, shifting into her white wolf form. She could not fight the strong feeling she had for me anymore. It was too powerful for her. Her wolf howls and stamps her two front feet playfully wanting me to follow her. My wolf was eager to follow her. I quickly took off my suit, stripping myself naked, and shifted into my wolf form chasing her. I gained upon her and stopped her. We both stood at a pond not too far from the garden enjoying the moonlight and each other company. I got close to her and lick the side of her face. She rubbed her head against mine and moan loving my touch.

Slowly my wolf got up and called our mate closer to the pond. She obeyed me. As we got close to the pond. I could sense her still trying to fight away the bond we share. I did not understand why? Immediately she shifted into her human form and burst out into tears. My heart pains me seeing our mate cried. I shifted into my human form. We were both now naked.

"Stop, fighting it," I told her, wanting her to stop ignoring the feeling we had for each other as I wrapped my arms around her.

Still, she continues to fight.

"Why won't you let me love you?" I asked her.

"I don't deserve your love nor anyone at all," she answered me.

I held her face right away and stare within her bright blue eyes.

"You are my mate, and you deserve to be loved," I told her.

Sadly, she brought her head resting on my neck, crying. I hold her tightly within my arms comforting her as we both sat on the ground within the moonlight naked.

Suddenly we heard a strange sound coming from the bushes, behind us. My mate and I turned to see who it was.

"I knew I would find you here," I heard a familiar voice. As the voice got closer, I was shocked seeing it was my first love Paisley who I have tried searching for seven years right now in front of me.

Her eyes widen and her entire body jumped seeing me and my mate naked on the ground.
