Conri and I are on the stage, staring out at the crowd. The ceremony went great. I do wish I could've walked down the aisle though. Maybe I will get to surprise Conri by walking down the aisle at our wedding. "Don't worry, girl, I got you," Nyla says, "There is a lot of damage and it's a lot like trying to rewire the Pentagon." I said, "Okay. I trust you. I will just do my best to keep my legs strong." As I'm finishing this thought, I hear a pop. Nyla says, "In the balcony." I look up and find him, still aiming. I neutralized him and another shooter. I refuse to let this mess up our evening. I will deal with this shit tomorrow.
I finally get to change into my other dress. I go to my room with my security, my mom and Lupe. When we get there, Trina s

I took a deep breath and said, "I want to thank all of you for coming. It has definitely been a journey getting here, but I'm so glad to be in this spot tonight. I want to let you know that I will do my best to be a fair princess, no matter what. I am not the type to make someone else do my bidding. I will always be right there, getting my hands dirty with you. As long as someone tells me I need to be there." Everyone laughed and I continued, "I want to thank Queen Nina for helping organize and plan this event. I would've been lost without you. I also want to thank Princess Chloe for decorating both rooms for this event. Chloe, the big sister I never had, I love you so much! Thank you." Then I turned to Conri and said, "And I want to thank Conri for loving me enough to stay with me through all of the challenges we've had so far. It would've been so easy for you to reject me because of this wheelchair, but you didn't. You are the love of my life, and there is no way I could live with

Nyla said, "This is what I was hoping for. I just don't know if you can yet." I said, "Why?" She said, "You stand upright. Your injury is at the very bottom of your spine. It puts more pressure on your spine, when you walk, than I do on mine." I said, "We can keep working on it though, right?" She said, "I'm not giving up on you, lady. Don't you worry about that. But for now, I would love to walk with Conri's wolf." I laughed when Conri shifted into his wolf, Conan, and mind linked, "Shall we take a walk together?" I looked around, and everyone else was shifted too. They all wanted to show support for me. They all encircled us, and we started walking slowly, at first, then it started to get faster. Before I knew it, we were running again! I was so happy, I wanted to cry. It seems like I have been waiting forever for this day. I said, "Nyla, I am so happy to have you!" She chuckled, "So you're not mad at me for waking you up?" I laughed, "Hell no!" When we got back to t

Conri leaned over and whispered in my ear, "Are you sure you want to do that so soon?" I said, "I know I do. So, you should call and arrange a time to get your tux soon." He smiled, "Yes, my princess. I will do that today." I smiled and kissed him gently, "I can't wait to be your wife. Then you'll be legally stuck with me forever." He laughed, "I wouldn't want you any other way. I've waited too long to have you. Do you honestly think I would want to let go of you now?" I smiled and said, "Just making sure." He chuckled and shook his head, "You baffle me sometimes. You know that don't you?" I said, "It keeps you on your toes." We finished eating breakfast, and I changed my shirt into a tank top, then put a jacket over it. Conri said, "Are you sure you want to wear that?" I said, "I'm going to be trying on wedding dresses. I need the thinnest clothes possible to ensure they fit okay." He said, "Okay." We went into the sitting room and waiting for our mothers. They both s

Conri and I went outside, and he said, "It really is not fair that you can shift with your clothes on, without destroying them. You get to see me naked, but I don't get to see you naked." I laugh, "You see me naked every morning and night." He said, "Still not fair. Seeing you naked is my favorite sight to see." I just shake my head as he comes out of the woods. He and I shift at the same time. I take off running while I hear him laughing through the mind link, "You think you can get away from me, little mate?" I laughed, "Catch me if you can, my mate." Nyla was running as fast as she can and loving every second of it. I knew Conri was purposely staying just a bit behind. He knew how much I missed running. I reached a clearing and crouched down, below the height of the grass. He started looking around for me, then, suddenly, he was on top of me. Conan said, "Give up, mate?" Nyla said, "What do I get if I do?" He nuzzles Nyla's neck and says, "Whatever you want." She says, "I want mo

Three days later, I'm on the phone with Grandma. She wants us to come down today. I have nothing else on the schedule, so I tell Grandma that I will talk to Conri about it and let her know. It's only six am, and I am dressed to meet my physical therapist. Conri is still sleeping, and I really don't want to wake him. I have a feeling about today. but I don't want to disappoint anyone. That is the reason I am alone in here. Well, I have Trina here, because she's my bodyguard. I can't go anywhere without her, but I'm really glad. She and I have become best friends, and I don't know what I would do without her or Lupe. I'm on the chin-up bar, doing pull ups and I'm finally able to get my legs in front of me to do it. I am so happy. I relax as soon as the therapist gets here. He said, "Those were some wickedly painful pull ups you were doing. They're very effective, but they are painful, and I'm glad to see you doing them." I laughed, "I love working out. So, do you think today m

Dinner was amazing, as usual. When we were all passing the food around, Conri tried to take just a little of everything, at first. When he saw the hot-hot, he asked what it is. I said, "It's a mix of tomatoes, onion, chili peppers, salt and pepper. Grandma has always called it hot-hot." He took a big spoonful of it and passed it around. He noticed that only Gabriel and Grandpa took any of it, "It's that hot, huh?" We all laughed and nodded. When he tried it, he moaned, "This is so good! Ash, you need to tell the kitchen staff how to make this." I laughed and said, "I will, but it won't be as good. I don't know why, but it's always best when Grandma makes it." He laughed and said, "I will never doubt your word again. This is amazing." Grandma chuckled and said, "Sweetie, you may have to have a kitchen of your own and start cooking some of this yourself." I said, "We'll have to see about that." Conri stopped everything and said, "Wait; you can cook like this?" I laugh, "She's the one

I woke up the next morning and went to the gym as soon as I got dressed. Conri followed and helped me on the leg press by spotting me. I want to get my legs back to the strength they were before I got shot. I'm working out when my physical therapist comes in. He said, "You're doing exactly what we were going to do first. I'm happy that you got a head start. It saves time to be able to work more on walking." I said, "I've done four sets of ten already. I am two presses away from five sets." I do two more presses, and I say, "Done. What's next?" He asked, "Have you stretched?" I nodded, "Before I started the leg presses." He said, "Then, I guess, you get to start walking. I would also like for you to try to run. As werewolves, that's a survival skill." I laughed, "You got that right." I walked around the gym three times, then started jogging for one lap, then running at a slightly faster pace for another lap, and I progressed with each lap. Each lap got faster and faster until

I woke up this morning to the most exciting and terrifying thought of my life. Tomorrow is my wedding! I am excited and anxious and scared to death all at the same time! Conri is definitely the love of my life. He keeps telling me that he's loved me since we were ten years old, but I never have gotten to tell him that I fell in love with him at about the same age. I don't even remember when it happened or how I realized it. I just always hoped he would be my mate. Which is why I was so happy to reject Mike. The guy was a fucking idiot. My Conri, my Prince, is a thousand times better; in mind, body, looks and heart. I know there are not many men who would've stuck by me when I was paralyzed. I also know that, if they had stuck around, they wouldn't have taken the time to research ways to cater to me, without making me feel like a burden on them. Conri has always treated me as his equal and no less. I don't know how I got so lucky, but I will never take it for granted... ever.

Loner to Luna Ashina's Quest: Epilogue
Wow. Just wow. That is all I can seem to say these days. My triplets, Jack, Josh, and Brianda are already thirteen years old. Niki is fifteen, Luna is sixteen, and Caleb and Kurt are seventeen now. It’s crazy how time flies. Sylvie is now eighteen. She first shifted at sixteen, and still hasn’t found her mate, but we knew that It’s going to take an extra strong mate to be able to handle her omega powers. There have been several attempts to take her, but she has done very well at defending herself. It also doesn’t hurt that we now have assigned two more bodyguards to her. She hates it as much as I did, but she admits that it is needed. My mom is having her annual ball for unmated species, so we are in my old pack, visiting and letting Sylvie, Caleb, and Kurt go to the ball. Sylvie decided she wanted a leather dress, like the one I wore on the night Conri, and I met. We went, with my mother, to the same leather shop that I shopped in, and I immediately saw a dress that I felt

We were about to start Sylvie's party, when Nico, Brenna, and their twins, Alex and Ashley came in. They were followed by Seth, Shayla and their three children, Kevin, Kasey, and Kinsley along with Seth's parents. I was so happy to see Seth so happy. He deserves that. Lupe and Mike came in with their two children, Caine, and Kaylie. Mike looked happier than I ever remember seeing him. After we got back from our honeymoon, I told Lupe about Mike being the mate I rejected, and I was so happy that none of that mattered to her. She knew there is no way I would go back to him now and I knew that Mike was blissfully happy with her. He came to realize it too and apologized to me for the tough time he had given me. I told him I forgave him and to just be happy with Lupe. That was all I wanted for both of them. Trina has since been changed to a Centaur, and she is a beautiful one. They have four children now and could not be happier. After celebrating Sylvie's birthday, Conri a

So, I'm sitting on one of our garden chairs, watching our children play. It's so hard to believe that five years ago we were handed this sweet little girl who, literally, put peace in our hearts. Today, we are going to be celebrating her fifth birthday. We have never kept her story from her. From the time she was old enough to tell her bedtime stories, I have told her the story of the beautiful and brave mother who gave birth to a child who would be a gift to all in our species. The mother was sad, because her Alpha was an evil man who would lock the child away, if he knew she existed. So, she wrapped the baby in a warm blanket and added a note, asking whoever found her to take her to the king. She knew the king was known as a kind and caring man. The king suggested the Prince and the Princess raise her as their own. They all loved her the moment they laid eyes on her. During all the celebration in finding such an amazing child, the Alpha got very angry and started searching for the

After the reception, Conri and I slipped into Sylvie's nursery, said goodbye, and we left for our honeymoon. To say the honeymoon was amazing would be an understatement. He took me to a private island in the Caribbean, and I was in heaven. We spent our days, laying in the sun, fruity cocktails in hand, and our nights having the most mind-blowing sex we'd ever had. We celebrated being in love, being a family, and, most of all, being best friends. I never imagined in all of my life, that having a mate could make you feel so complete. Conri held true to his word, we went to a restaurant just a few times, but we mostly had a private chef come in and cook for us. I told Conri that I could cook, but he would have no part of it. He just wanted us to relax and just enjoy being together. I loved this side of him. I also loved his playful side when we swam in the sea. I loved jumping on his back and making him fall into the warm water. It was all a dream come true for me. One day, I voiced th

A tall, blonde woman, that I haven't seen in years, stands in the doorway. I hand Sylvie to Conri and wheel my chair to her. I hug her tightly, "How are you?" Maia replies, "I'm doing great! My life is nowhere nearly as exciting as yours lately, from what I'm hearing from dad and Aidinth! I laugh, "What can I say, Things tend to happen in my presence. It's a curse." She laughs and I find out that she found her mate in another kingdom and moved there. She now has six children, and she is over the moon happy. I smiled, "I am so happy for you! I haven't seen you since I was around six years old. I am so glad you are staying for our wedding. I want you to meet my mate and my new daughter!" Maia got excited, "That was fast! A daughter already?" I laughed, "Adopted daughter. It's definitely a story to tell." We went to Conri, and I said, "Prince Conri, please meet Princess Maia. She is Aidinth's sister!" He smiled, "It's very nice to meet you. I heard the story of the way you all

My mom said, "Honey, take the honeymoon. You guys will only get this one chance before life gets crazy. You two need this time for yourselves. Do it while you have an overabundance of babysitters who are more than happy to help you. This will give us some needed bonding time with Sylvie too." Conri said, "What if something happens?" Mom said, "Queen Winnie will come and get you, and teleport you back." Conri looked at me, "You did say you wanted to work on giving Sylvie and baby brother or sister. This will give us two weeks to try." I laughed and said, "Okay. But we spend the rest of today and tonight bonding with this little one." Conri said, "Sounds good to me." We sat in the conference room until Queen Carina, Queen Winnie and King Izzoth came back. They all reported that there had been no survivors, but they couldn't be certain that he was dead. I said, "King Izzoth, if he's dead, wouldn't he be in your realm?" He said, "No doubt about it." I said, "Is there a way for y

I was so wrapped up in the moment, that Conri was able to sneak up behind me and whisper, "See something you like?" I turned around and put my arms around him and said, "You know, I never even gave children a thought before now. I knew I wanted them, eventually, but I figured it would happen on its own." He laughed, "It might help if we weren't using protection." I laughed, "Yeah, that might help. Seeing our families with Sylvie is making me want to give her a baby brother or sister." He said, "I don't mind starting on that right away. Do you?" I laugh, "Maybe after she goes to sleep tonight." He said, "You do know that until she can go in her own room, we are going to have to be quiet too." I said, "Yep. That may be an issue. We'll just have to wait and see what happens." He laughed, "You got it." A knock on the door caused us both to look warily, just in case it is someone who is looking for Sylvie. When the person was let in, she was a bloody mess and barely standing, "He

When we got to the castle, we were met by King Fenris and the warriors. King Fenris was barking orders to his warriors when I asked, "Have you found out how they got past the patrol?" King Fenris said, "We lost two warriors." I shook my head and got mad. I said, "I need my chair. I am not wearing myself out over rogues." Queen Nina was already on it, "Ashie," she yells, "I walk up to her and say, "You are amazing. Thank you." She said, "Just be careful. We can't have either of you getting hurt the day before the wedding." I said, "I plan on just using magic. Conri will stay by me." She said, "That's good to know." I yelled for Conri, and when he approached, I said, "Why don't we go on the roof again. We don't know how many we are dealing with, and I want to be able to heal our warriors as soon as they are down." He said, "Good idea. Dad! We're going on the roof!" King Fenris nodded and yelled, "I'll join you in a minute!" We went up to the roof, and we were met with an unbel
