Wedding night

~Cassandra ~

~After Two Weeks~

As the full moon rose high in the night sky, casting an ethereal glow over the enchanting forest, the werewolf community gathered to celebrate our momentous occasion- the union of King Lucian and I in our wedding ceremony.

The chosen clearing in the heart of the forest had been beautifully adorned with a canopy of intertwined branches and delicate moonflowers.

Their fragrance hung in the air, mingling with the anticipation and excitement that permeated every corner. Softly lit lanterns dangled from the trees, casting gentle flickering light across the scene.

The guests, a diverse array of werewolves from various packs, arrived, each one radiating an aura of grace and power. They wore their finest attire, a harmonious blend of traditional and modern fashion.

The vibrant moonlit scene was filled with elegant werewolves in flowing gowns and dashing suits, their eyes shimmering with the essence of the moon.

It was the happiest day of my life. I was getting married to a King! My years of waiting and looking for a mate eventually paid off.

Lucian and I stood in front of the priest as he pronounced our union. His voice resonated with wisdom and power as he shared heartfelt words of guidance and blessings, reminding the couple and the entire werewolf community of the importance of love, loyalty, and unity.

As the vows were exchanged, the atmosphere filled with an enchanting harmony of howls. Amidst the gasps and applause from the witnesses, Lucian and I sealed our vows with a tender kiss, embracing the power of our love and our unique heritage.

The werewolf community erupted into joyous celebration, their howls harmonizing with the sounds of drums and music that resonated through the night.

Under the moonlight, Lucian complimented me, saying, "Cassandra, you look absolutely stunning tonight," as we embraced and danced together.

Blushing, I thanked him and returned the compliment, acknowledging his handsomeness. He chuckled and kissed me once more.

While we continued dancing, one of the Betas approached us and whispered something into Lucian’s ear. After he retracted, Lucian looked at me and smiled.

“I have some urgent matters to attend to now, Cassandra. I’ll be back as soon as I can. I’m very sorry.” He uttered, and I shook my head and smiled.

“It’s nothing, my husband. Take your time. I was tired of dancing anyway.” I responded and he chuckled. He planted one last kiss on my lips and took long strides away from the dance floor.

Keeping a smile on, I walked to the table where different delicacies were served and I picked an apple and munched on it.

With a smile still on my face, I made my way to a table adorned with various delicacies. I chose an apple and began munching on it.

As I looked around, my gaze landed on Zoe and Frank, who were also enjoying themselves on the dance floor. It felt like a miraculous moment.

In that moment, as I savored my apple, I couldn't help but think, "Who would have imagined that someone like me, a lone wolf, would end up becoming a queen?"

Suddenly, I felt a pair of hands wrap around me from behind, and turning around, I saw Lucian wearing a wide grin.

"Hey, my wife," he greeted me.

"You're back already? That was quick," I replied, wrapping my hands around his neck.

"I couldn't bear to be away from you any longer," he whispered in my ear, moving his mouth closer. "Let's leave. I have a surprise for you."

Excitement filled my eyes, and I eagerly nodded. "Really? I can't wait," I exclaimed, and he reached for my hand.

"Let's escape before everyone starts overwhelming their king and queen with activities," he suggested, pulling me away from the scene and into the woods.

We both laughed as we ran non-stop into the woods. Amidst the laughter, I asked, "Where are we going, Lucian? This is hilarious, escaping our own wedding ceremony."

"We'll get there soon," he replied, and we continued running.

Eventually, we approached a secluded hut in the heart of the woods. Glancing back to see how far we had come, I realized we had ventured much farther than I had anticipated.

"And here we are," he announced, his grin widening. His eyes spoke volumes of love and respect.

"Is the surprise inside?" I inquired, and without delay, he bent down and lifted me off the ground.

"I can't wait to have you, Cassandra," he said, and we both laughed as we approached the hut.

He opened the door without setting me down, and my jaw dropped when I beheld what he had prepared inside.

The floor was adorned with an array of beautiful flowers and candles, while rose petals were scattered across the bed.

"Lucian," I called out, my voice brimming with emotion as he carefully set me down.

"Don't say my name," he whispered, drawing me closer and placing his hand over my mouth. This time, his kiss felt even more intense, his desire seemingly multiplied.

His lips devoured mine, his tongue intertwining with mine. The passion grew so fervent that we lost track of the world around us.

He firmly grasped me beneath my backside, lifting me effortlessly from the floor, our kiss unbroken as we moved towards the bed.

With a gentle touch, he laid me down on the bed, breaking the kiss. Opening my eyes, I noticed his were still closed, and I watched as he gradually opened them.

"I love you so deeply, Cassandra," he uttered, his voice filled with overwhelming emotion.

"I love you too, Lucian," I replied, offering a shy smile. He shook his head and lowered it. "Don't call me Lucian. Call me your husband," he insisted, capturing my lips once again.

His hands ventured beneath my clothing, between my thighs, and I gasped, opening my eyes and breaking the kiss.

"What's the matter?" I faintly heard his voice.

"It's... it's my first time. No one has ever touched me before," I murmured, shyly covering my face with my hand.

He reached for my hand, gently removing it from my face. I opened my eyes and witnessed him smiling so tenderly at me, causing my body to melt.

"You're absolutely adorable, Cassandra. Don't worry, okay? I'll take it slow," he reassured me, and I nodded, parting my legs beneath him.

"I'm ready," I responded, wrapping my arms around his neck and drawing him into another passionate kiss.

"Cassandra! Cassandra!" I was abruptly awakened from my slumber by the distant sound of my name. Letting out a soft groan, a smile crept across my face as I reached out my hand to the other side of the bed, hoping to find Lucian.

As my eyes slowly opened, I realized there was no one beside me. Sitting up in bed, I scanned the hut, and once again, I heard my name being called from outside.

"Cassandra!" Lucian's voice reached my ears.

"Lucian?" I responded happily, hastily grabbing my clothes and quickly dressing myself. I hurried to the door and opened it, revealing a crowd of people gathered in front of the hut and scattered throughout the woods.

"Cassandra!" Lucian called out when he saw me, rushing over and tightly embracing me, his breath heavy.

"Oh God... I was so scared. I've been searching for you since last night," he said with worry, examining my face and checking my body to ensure I was alright.

"What's happening?" I asked, feeling completely bewildered.

"I've found her! We can stop the search now!" Lucian declared to everyone, and they erupted in cheers and applause.

"I was terrified, Cassandra. After I finished speaking with the elders of the kingdom, I returned to the dance floor, but you were gone. I searched for you relentlessly, but couldn't locate you."

"But..." I began to speak, confusion filling my mind.

He pulled me into his arms once again, holding me tightly. "Don't say anything, alright? Let's go home. We can discuss it once everyone has calmed down," he replied, and I reluctantly nodded.

Numerous questions flooded my mind at that moment. I wasn't sure what was happening.

"We spent the night together, so why is he with others, searching for me? Why is he speaking as if we weren't together? Or... did I spend the night with someone else?"
