Chapitre 12: A gift for the bride.

Elpis's POV

I didn't know what I was doing or why I was doing it but something was so special about her. First of all, I thought she was my mate but if she was, she was supposed to feel it too, right? She is meant to feel the longing I feel as well. After the talk I had with her this morning, I was really reconsidering the thought of her being my mate and the marriage.

Oliva came in right after her and bowed like always.

"Did you find anything" I asked him.

"She was brought here was a child and has work here ever since. There is no trace of her family or her pack. Many of them think that she was abandoned by her pack."

I already know that. I want to know more. I sighed. "Anything else."

"Yes. I heard she had a mate."

I turned. "Had?"

"Yes. Apparently, it was the alpha's brother."

"Crane?"

"Yes, alpha."

I took a deep breath. "What happened?"

"He rejected her on the day of the ritual."

Is that why she can't feel what I feel? "Any reason?" I asked him.

"None given. All I know is that he rejected her that day."

Everything started making sense to me now. She didn't feel the way I felt because she was still grieving over her rejected mate. I didn't know what I should feel at that moment. Should I feel happy and thankful that he rejected her or should I feel sad that she might never feel the same way I feel because she loves someone else? I was just so confused at that moment.

"Alpha, are you still going to go through with this wedding?"

"We will see. Did you prepare my gift?"

"Yes. Alpha. it is ready. We just need your signal.'

I waited in my room, watching the preparations. I saw her from time to time. She looked so pretty; with her black, long, slick hair that is always tie in a bon though she let it down last night and her dazzling grey eyes that looked like the full moon. I just could take my eyes off her.

When it was time for the wedding, I came down and sat at the back. Don't worry, I had no intention of stopping this wedding. It had to happen. Besides, I don't poke my nose into people's business. Eliot was standing there at the alter waiting for his bride to walk down the aisle. I remembered what Hemera said. I didn't want to stop this wedding because the only way this packs will learn is if it happens to them.

The bride walked down to the alter and said her vows and announced that she is the new Luna of Crescent moon. Everyone clapped as they both walked out of the venue as a married couple. Eliot started shaking all the wolves that came. When it was my turn, he shook me and said, "Thanks for coming. You didn't drop any present, didn't you get any?"

"Don't worry, it is on its way."

During the reception. I watched as a lot of people came to congratulate the happy couple. I didn't want to be a party pooper so I kept my mouth shut. I looked round and I couldn't see Hemera.

"Elpis, I am still waiting on my gift." Eliot said.

I gave him a small smile and grabbed a glass and a fork to grab everyone's attention.

"I want to congratulate the couple on their marriage. I hope they are happy." Everyone applauded.

"To show my appreciation I would like to give the bride a little gift."

I looked at her. she had a smile on her face but she was a little doubtful. I gave her a little smile and my right hand came with a jewelry box and handed it to her. she looked at me with a little smile and opened it. There was a frown on Eliot's face

She opened the box and her face was filled with shock. She looked with a smile.

"Thank you, alpha. This is very beautiful." she said with a smile.

Eliot took the box and looked at the gift. It is a 30-carat emerald necklace.

"There is no need to thank me. I heard you love emerald so I got you one." I said and gave her one of my beautiful smiles.

I saw how she looked at the gift. She really loved it. I looked at Eliot. He was obviously fuming. I didn't get why. It wasn't like she was going to leave him over a necklace. Eliot has always been like this. He gets jealous for no reason. But I must admit, the look on his face is satisfying to look at.
