Chapter 125
Lyra’s POV
The mating ceremony was done and dusted. It was a fulfilling experience, with dignitaries from various packs from all around the world in attendance.
I never knew Kessler was so prominent until the mating ceremony. He is a freaking amazing billionaire, with his wealth spread across the werewolf and human worlds.
He owns chains of hotels, nightclubs, and restaurants. I joked with him that he would have to take me to one of his clubs.
But I was surprised when he said I’d been to one of his clubs before. Then, he told me that it was the club after I saw the headlines of him and Annie getting engaged.
We had fulfilled the part of the mating ceremony, and his mark now is sitting pretty on my neck as his Luna and mate.
I don’t think I can get enough of this feeling. It’s like the marking brings another fresh spark to whatever we had before now. This time around, it wasn’t forced, unlike the first.
With each passing day, I find myself drawn closer to Kessler, discovering a new side of his personality and our bond. The spark ignited by the marking continues to grow, filling our relationship with passion.
We had a series of hot, steaming sex over and over again before and after the mating ceremony, and at this stage, I couldn’t seem to get enough of him.
My clit always throbs whenever I see him around. I had to be on a pill because I could get pregnant, and I don’t think I’m ready for yet another baby.
Atticus is a handful, and I had to get a nanny who could assist while I juggle between my role as Luna and running an NGO that takes care of women suffering in their marriage without a voice.
And more so, I pursue my love for event and catering services. I have all the support I could get, with my own office and space, and business has been so good so far.
What more can I ask for? With Jack gone and the business thriving, I feel a sense of freedom and peace that I haven’t experienced in a long time. The constant fear of being followed or haunted by past troubles has lifted, allowing me to focus on building my career and enjoying life with Kessler and Atticus.
Kessler’s unwavering support and love continue to be my source of strength and motivation.
Life feels like a beautiful journey filled with opportunities and blessings, and I am grateful for every step of the way.
It’s finally my wedding day, and I couldn’t be more excited! I’m over the moon right now, surrounded by my girls who are buzzing with excitement about my big day.
Cara, my best friend, is my maid of honor. We go way back, all the way to Alpha Tristan’s time. Julie and Olivia are my bridesmaids, adding to the joyous atmosphere in the room.
Zach, dear Zach, will be walking me down the aisle. I’m grateful beyond words for all the love and support I’ve received.
My makeup is flawless, and I feel like a princess in my fairy tale wedding gown. Everything is falling into place, and I can’t wait to say “I do” to the love of my life.
The gown is big and puffy, with a tight top and a flowing skirt made of soft, light fabric. It has pretty decorations like lace, beads, and sequins that sparkle in the light. The top part has flowers, fancy stitching, and beads that make it look special.
The dress has a sweetheart shape style and is made of lace. The back of the dress has a long train that follows me when I walk. I wore a shiny tiara on my head, a pretty veil, pearl earrings, and a necklace.
In all, I had a magical dress that made me feel like a princess on my special day, as Zach walked me down the aisle and my girls followed.
As I walked down the aisle, everyone stood to welcome me. I took my time, glancing at each person present at the ceremony. A bright smile couldn’t leave my face-I was way over the moon about taking this next step with Kessler.
I glanced ahead and saw Kessler standing at the altar, looking impeccably handsome as always. He wore a sleek tuxedo with his hair styled backward, his smile matching mine.
Seeing him, I couldn’t help but feel an urge to jump into his arms right then and there. But just as the thought crossed my mind, I received a mind link from him. “I know I’m drop-dead gorgeous, but please don’t jump me right in front of everyone,” he joked, his message bringing a playful smile to my lips.
“Feeling cocky, huh? I can feel your dick twitching in your trousers right now. Oh my goodness, Kessler, you’re having an erection,” I replied to his jabs.
He stylishly placed his hand in front of his trousers, trying to cover up what I had noticed. “You’ve got me on this one, sunshine. Can’t get enough of you.”
I stuck out my tongue at him when Zach handed me over to him, as the priest stood to commence the program.
“Dearly beloved, we are gathered here to witness the holy matrimony between Lyra Ruth Bash and Kessler Joshua Frodd. If anyone has a reason why these two should not be joined in holy matrimony, such a person should indicate or forever remain silent,” the priest announces.
As the priest’s voice echoes through the room, a hush falls over the guests. All eyes are on me and Kessler as we stand hand in hand, exchanging glances filled with love and anticipation.
The priest continues, “Marriage is a sacred union, a joining of two souls in love and commitment. It is a bond that transcends time and space, a promise to cherish and support each other through all of life’s joys and challenges.”
The priest looks at me and then at Kessler, asking, “Do you, Lyra Ruth Bash, take Kessler Joshua Frodd to be your lawfully wedded husband, to love, honor, and cherish, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, as long as you both shall live?”
My voice is clear and unwavering as I reply, “I do.”
The priest then turns to Kessler and asks, “And do you, Kessler Joshua Frodd, take Lyra Ruth Bash to be your lawfully wedded wife, to love, honor, and cherish, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, as long as you both shall live?”
“Kessler’s gaze is filled with love as he answers, ‘I do.'”
“By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may seal your union with a kiss.”
I was a nervous wreck, feeling shy with everyone watching as I prepared to kiss Kessler. But unexpectedly, a surge of bravery took over me, and I exclaimed, “Hell yes!”
“That seems to earn a chuckle from the priest himself, bringing me out of my lala world as I pull away from the kiss.
I looked at Kessler and realized he was looking at me with lust, which made the juice in my clit drop.
“Stop doing this to me,” I said to him through the mind link.
He had a broad smile on his face.
I am beyond blessed to have him as my Alpha, husband, and father to my Atticus.”
“Kessler held my hand as we walked, hand in hand, with everyone standing and smiling as we left the hall. I greeted familiar faces with a smile, feeling a sense of joy and gratitude in my heart.
It’s amazing how the man I once thought was my nightmare became the man who swept me off my feet. I am truly grateful to the moon goddess.
