I'm pulled into group after group of well wishers, asking about when I'll take over as alpha, will there be a
graduation party, have | found my mate? | try to maintain the conversations as well as | can, but I'm watching
Cara. | can’t look away, especially when Trevor and sother younger warriors approach her and it’s obvious
they are talking about the jewelry | got her.
| can tell she didn’t understand why | chose those colors. I've seen Artemis in her eyes so many times this week
when she received the gifts that it's becone of my favorite things about her. I've dreamt of those eyes and
now she is wearing the jeweled version.
| keep my eyes on her as she heads over to the bar. I've somehow gotten
surrounded by a group of unmated females and Sheila pushes herself front and center as if she belonged there.
I'm about to move away from all of them when | see Liam enter the clubhouse. He looks around finding Cara and
he zeros in on her. A soft growl rumbles out of my chest.
‘Do something.” Kai yells in my head. ‘Get him away from her. She’s MINE!"
“Alpha, are you okay?” One of the girls aroundasks.

Distractedly, | respond, still watching the interaction between Liam and Cara, ” Yeah, | just need to find my
parents. Do you know where they are?”
The
-helpful Sheila jumps in, “They are over there babe. Do you wantto get them for you?” She points to her left,
near the stage.
“No thanks, | got it.”
| start to head that way and watch as Liam and Cara go to speak to Mr. Nelson and the other warriors. Kai snarls
at the way she smiles at him. | want her to
smile atlike that.
| walk up to my father. “Hey dad, ready to get this show on the road?”
“Absolutely son.”
He steps up on the stage and grabs a spoon to clink his glass and get the room's attention. | watch as my dad
interrupts whatever sexy thing Liam was about to say to Cara, thank the goddess.
Dad gives a speech aboutbecoming Alpha, finding a love like his and mom's, I'm working on it dad’, | think,
and having lots of pups. The thought of having

pups with Cara hasinstantly hard. Fuck, now | have to do something quick before the whole room sees me
popping a tent in my pants.
Thankfully Dad tossesthe keys to a new car. | see the Porsche symbol on the key chain. I'm guessing it’s the
911 turbo I've had my eyes on for a while now. | don’t even know what to say. | walk over to my parents and
quietly thank them while hugging each of them. It’s so much more than | ever expected.
| take the mic. Now, it's tto let Cara know who her mystery man is.
As | thank everyone for coming, | can’t help making eye contact with her. Honestly, if no one else but her had

Luna. | already have, but she has to acceptwhen her birthday comes around.
And now, it’s do or die time.
“I would like to start off the dancing tonight by asking a very special woman to dance with me.” | see Liam stiffen
out of the corner of my eye. He knows exactly what I'm about to do.

“Cara Nelson, may | have this dance?” | watch as her body straightens. It's obvious by the way she wasn’t even
looking in my direction that she didn’t expectto ask her.
She turns, looking at my hand outstretched to her with a shocked expression on her face. A long minute goes by
before she steps up and accepts my hand. | give her a smile that could light up a room and hand the microphone
to my father, before Ed Sheeran’s Perfect begins to play.
I pull her into me, wrapping one arm around her waist and taking her other hand in mine before beginning to
sway to the music.
