Tristan\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018I want everyone to see how much I love you, how proud I am that you chose me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her eyes got a bit misty and she smiled that soft smile that made my heart do things.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cReally?\u201d she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cReally, I confirmed, taking her hand in mine. \u201cWhy? What kind of wedding do you want?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her whole face lit up in a way I\u2019d never seen before and she sat up straighter, like she\u2019d been waiting her whole life for someone to ask her this question and actually mean it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay so,\u201d she said, speaking faster now with excitement.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMy dream wedding has always been huge, like really huge, with everyone we know there and beautiful decorations and just this massive celebration where everyone can see how happy we are.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat sounds perfect,\u201d I said, loving how animated she was getting, how her hands were moving as she talked, how her eyes were shining with possibilities.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut here\u2019s the thing,\u201d she continued, leaning forward like she was sharing a secret.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve always wanted to do both ceremonies, like a proper mating ceremony at night under the full moon with the pack, all traditional and meaningful with the ancient rituals and the bonding and everything.\u00a0<\/p>\n
too.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
And then the next day we do a regular human wedding during the day so that any human friends can come and celebrate with us\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was practically vibrating with excitement now and I found myself grinning at how happy this was making her, at how much thought she\u2019d clearly put into this over the years.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat sounds amazing,\u201d I said sincerely.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cReally?\u201d she asked, her excitement dimming slightly like she was worried I\u2019d say no or tell her it was too much.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause I know it\u2019s a lot, doing two ceremonies, and it would be expensive and time consuming and we\u2019d have to coordinate so much and make sure everyone could attend both and.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLet\u2019s do it,\u201d I interrupted, unable to let her talk herself out of what she clearly wanted so badly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chapter 307\u00a0<\/p>\n
She stopped mid sentence and stared at me like she hadn\u2019t heard correctly. \u201cWhat?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
3 74\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLet\u2019s do it,\u201d I repeated, squeezing her hand. \u201cThe mating ceremony at night, the human wedding during the day, the huge celebration with everyone we know, all of it, let\u2019s do exactly what you want, every single detail.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you serious?\u201d she asked, her voice almost a whisper now like she was afraid if she spoke too loud I\u2019d change my mind.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re not just saying that to make me happy?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m completely serious,\u201d I said, using my free hand to cup her face. \u201cI told you I want the world to know I\u2019m marrying you, what better way than to have two ceremonies and invite everyone we know?\u00a0<\/p>\n
We\u2019ll do the traditional mating ceremony for the pack, honor our heritage and our wolves, and then we\u2019ll do the human wedding for everyone else, show the whole world that you\u2019re mine and I\u2019m yours.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cTristan,\u201d she breathed, and tears were forming in her eyes now, spilling over and running down her cheeks.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I wiped them away with my thumb. \u201cWhy are you crying?\u201d I asked confused.\u00a0<\/p>\n
*Because I never thought I\u2019d get this,\u201d she said, her voice breaking.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWith Daxon, anytime I mentioned wanting a big wedding he\u2019d shut it down, said it was a waste of money, said we didn\u2019t need all that\u00a0<\/p>\n
attention.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Said a small ceremony was more meaningful, but really he just didn\u2019t want people to see us together, didn\u2019t want to make that kind of public commitment.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
My jaw clenched at the mention of Daxon but I forced myself to stay calm, to focus on Athena and what she needed right now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not Daxon,\u201d I said firmly. \u201cI want everyone to know you\u2019re mine, I want to shout it from the rooftops, I want two ceremonies and a thousand guests if that\u2019s what makes you happy.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
