My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 65: A Gallon of Water
(Jason POV)My heart drops when I see that Candy is no longer standing there. Where did she go?I follow her scent to the parking lot, where I see her walking to her car.“Candy!!!” I shout.I see her hesitate, but she doesn’t turn around.“Candy!!!” I yell out again, hurrying as quickly as I can to catch her.She still doesn’t turn around, but at least she isn’t getting into her car. Finally, I reach her. “Candy!” I say in a softer voice. I reach out and grab her gently on her arm, and I feel powerful sparks shoot through me.“Go away, Jason,” she says softly, still not turning around.“Candy, please,” I beg. My heart is pounding inside of my chest. I can already feel the power of the connection between us. My wolf is right; I cannot let her go. “Candy….”*****(Candy POV)As soon as I heard Jason call my name, the single tear running down my cheek became a river of tears. Everything in me wants to turn around and face him, but I do not want Jason to see me crying. Instead,

(Aaron POV) After almost three years of planning, rescheduling, and planning again, my father and Josephine are finally married. All things considered, I think today’s event went perfectly. The ceremony was beautiful, the dinner was delicious, we made some good connections with wedding guests from other packs, and we even got some free entertainment in the form of Jason finding his second-chance mate. Once my father and Josephine said their good-byes to the guests, and once Cassie’s family turned in for the night, I was ready to do the same. I swept my beautiful bride off of her feet and I started to carry her, giggling, back to the packhouse and to our room. Unfortunately, just before I made it out of the reception area, Jason came running in. “Aaron!!! Aaron, where is Josephine?” he asked me. “She’s with my father.” “Where?” I looked at him annoyed. “Jason, it’s their wedding night. Where do you think they are?” “I need to find Josephine,” Jason responded frantically.

***TRIGGER WARNING*** I promised that the next few chapters would introduce some humor, and it is definitely coming in healthy doses! However, this chapter will also touch on unwed mothers and suicide, which is a necessary part of the story. I have flagged the section of the chapter that deals with this; please feel free to read the first part of this chapter (the Granny Apple section) and then skip the rest. ****** (Candy POV) My grandmother – Granny Apple—is here. I am relieved and happy. She always seems to know when I need her. When everything happened at my original pack, she was the only person in my family who trusted and supported me. To this day, I think that she is the only person in my family who even cares to know that I am alive and well. Granny Apple is a force of nature. She is 79 years old, going on 19. She married my grandfather at age 18, and went on to have nine children including my father before she turned 27. All nine of her children were boys, meanin

(Cassie POV) On Tuesday morning, I groggily rolled over in bed, only to find my husband already awake and staring at me. “Good morning, Luna,” he said, smiling. “Good morning, Alpha,” I smiled back. “What time are we leaving for the lake?” “Eh, we probably need to head out in about an hour. If we don’t get there early enough, I’m afraid Josephine will insist on decorating the picnic site with rhinestones and feathers.” I laughed. “I’m going to miss her and your dad, you know.” “I will, too. But they promised that they will spend at least six days a month here at Blue Moon, so we should still be able to see them fairly frequently. Did you get a hold of Candy yesterday?” “Yes, although I wasn’t able to get a good read on her. She didn’t say anything about Jason at all. I don’t know if that is a good thing or a bad thing.” “Is she still going to come today?” “She said yes. In fact, she told me that she is bringing her grandmother, Granny Apple.” Aaron raised his eyebrows
Last Updated : 2023-07-05My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 69: Grandmotherly Advice
(Candy POV)Well, that was an interesting way to introduce Jason to my grandmother.Leave it to Granny Apple, though; she does not do awkward. At her age, and with her spunk, there is no such thing as a taboo subject in her mind. She would rather you just lay it all out there and deal with it.So that is what we did. Or rather, what she did. Instead of letting me run --which I desperately wanted to do after seeing my mate get an obvious hard-on for his first mate-- Granny Nanny made me stay. Without Granny Nanny, I would have expected my insecurities to get in the way of a productive conversation with Jason, but Granny Apple was determined to not let that happen. After berating Jason, she turned to me. She told me that she had seen more than her fair share of penises, and that "an erection is a male body's natural reaction to stimuli" (yes, she really did use those words). She said I could no more blame a sex-starved man for "getting it up" than I could blame a man for farting o

(Jason POV)I went home on Tuesday a very happy man. Even my parents’ request that we sit down and talk about the visuals that Jake has been sending me did little to ruin my mood.On Wednesday, I decided to send Candy a bouquet of flowers. I did not know her address, so I sent them to her at work. Jake and I agreed that we wanted to avoid doing things the same way that we had done them with Cassie, so instead of sending a bouquet of traditional roses, we opted for a bouquet of pink and white rose lilies. I was surprised and a little disappointed when Candy did not text or call me after they were delivered, but I did not dwell on it. I just assumed that she was either really busy or her work schedule had changed.On Thursday, I knew Candy was planning to get off work at 5 o’clock in the afternoon. Based on that, I had originally planned to meet her at a restaurant nearby the boutique. However, she texted me Thursday morning to let me know that she was getting off of work a littl

(Cassie POV)I have been having the best time tonight hanging out with Granny Apple. We have been laughing and drinking and eating and telling stories the whole time Candy and Jason have been gone. I am practically ready to beg Granny Apple to adopt me. This woman has had so many experiences and lived so much life; I just cannot get enough.The best part of Granny Apple is that she isn’t just wise; she is a little crazy too. It’s a “fun” crazy… the kind where you may not always agree with the opinions the other person has, but you cannot help but enjoy them anyway. For example, she told me that all of the underwear in her closet is white because she refuses to wear colored underwear. She is convinced that the dyes in colored underwear will turn her vagina different colors, and “men don’t like a rainbow down below.” I do not even know how it would be possible to dye your vagina, but it entertains me to no end that Granny Apple seems to really believe it.A few times throughout t

(Candy POV)I very much appreciated how kind and gentle Jason was with me after I accidentally ate the shrimp at the restaurant. The walls around my heart cracked just a little seeing how concerned he was about me, and how protective he was when taking me to the hospital.I also appreciated that he had Alpha Aaron, Cassie, and Granny Apple meet us there. It was nice to see Jason try to anticipate what I would want and what would make me comfortable. It was a side of him that Cassie had never described, and it made me think there was an increasingly large possibility that maybe things could work out between us.Unfortunately, the small hope in my heart was dampened as soon as I saw Granny Apple's expression.You can always tell when Granny Apple is angry, because she becomes super serious, super polite, and she acts her age. Once you get to know her, seeing serious Granny Apple can be scary and unsettling to the core. Most people would much prefer her embarrassing intrusive questio

My Mate's Wedding Drama Author's Note
And that is a wrap! I hope you all have enjoyed the journey. I will definitely miss these characters. They definitely took on personalities of their own as we went along. I cannot tell you how many times I sat down planning to write one thing, only to find the characters demanding we go a different direction. Thankfully, we will still get glimpses of the key characters in Book 2, which will focus on the Moon Goddess's decision to pair Maggie and Alpha Paul. That book will also pick up where this book left off, in terms of Bobby and the Moonlight Six. I plan to start Book 2 in a few weeks, after I take some time off for a couple of family vacations. Thank you all for reading!!! If you have enjoyed the journey, please leave a gem and/or positive review!
My Mate's Wedding Drama Epilogue
(2 ½ months later)(Jason POV)The last few months have been an absolute whirlwind, but I can honestly say that I have never been happier.After our big fight the night of Duncan and Moira’s cake-tasting, Paige and I stayed up for hours talking… and fighting… and making up again. We realized that we both like to be challenged, and once we both agreed to take rejection completely off the table, we found that we are really good at being one another’s “safe place” to have heated or difficult conversations.Instead of Theo flying out to Texas, Paige decided that we should go back to Blue Moon together. She arranged for other wedding planners to handle all of her Texas weddings except for Moira and Duncan’s. She understandably wanted to keep their wedding, but everything left to do could be done remotely until the weekend of the wedding itself. Once we are a bit more settled, she plans to open a part-time wedding planning business just outside Blue Moon territory.... at which she wil
My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 109: My Idiot
(Paige POV) Neither Jason nor I said anything to each other on the way home from the bakery. It was just as well. Thankfully, Moira did not seem angry about Duncan and Jason leaving… and we were able to successfully pick flavors for their wedding cake… but the whole thing was still embarrassing and unprofessional. The moment we walked into my apartment, Jason headed to the kitchen. He peeked inside the refrigerator and calmly asked me what I wanted to eat for dinner. “Really? That is the first thing that you are going to say to me? Not ‘I’m sorry for embarrassing you,’ or ‘I’m sorry for having my head up my a— since you got back’ or ‘How did the rest of your tasting go? I hope I didn’t cost you a couple of clients.’ Hell, at this point, I’d even take ‘Hey, Baby, I’m craving tacos, does that sound good to you?’” “Why do I feel like you are itching for a fight, Paige?” “Maybe because I am, Jason! I cannot live this way anymore!!!” Jason turned around and glared at me. “Liv
My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 108: Jason & Duncan
(Paige POV)So it turns out that Jason not only upgraded my flight to first-class… he booked himself a ticket as well. Jason explained that he had decided that he was going to go where I went for the rest of my life… or until I rejected him for the third and final time. He also told me that his plan was for Theo to stay with Jason’s parents for the first couple of weeks, and then —if I had not kicked him out yet— Theo would come and join us.But for everything else, I probably would have found Jason’s decision to come to Texas with me to be a really sweet gesture.However, over the next week, Jason’s behavior continued to be bizarre. Worse, his constant presence began to feel suffocating and overwhelming. Even Carly, who loved having her mate nearby, was becoming concerned.Among other weird things, Jason:—continued to insist on making me breakfast in bed every. single. day. I could not even grab a piece of toast or a granola bar without Jason freaking out. —refused to disagree
My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 107: The De-Brief
(Paige POV) As I get on the airplane, my heart feels heavy. I know that I need to get back to Texas, but even after spending the morning talking to Jason and most of the afternoon de-briefing with everyone else, things still just feel… unsettled. I had hoped that talking to Jason would give me some better insight on our relationship… but more than anything, this morning felt…. awkward. In addition to bizarrely shaving his head and insisting on serving me breakfast in bed, Jason spent almost the entirety of our conversation either apologizing or agreeing with everything that I said. It sort-of felt like I was talking to a wall; the normal, opinionated Jason was not there. As much as the normal, opinionated Jason irritates me at times, I could not help but wonder where he was. I definitely like the normal Jason better than the shell of a wolf that he was this morning. Oh, well. At least if I am going to have a heavy heart on my flight back, I will be comfortable. (Somehow, my
My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 106: Big News
(Cassie POV) I wake up to Josephine’s voice in my head. “Cassie, Sweetheart?” I moan. “I am sleeping. What is up, Josephine?” “It is one o’clock the afternoon.” “One in the morning?” I respond back groggily. “No, Sweetheart. It’s the middle of the afternoon.” “That’s not possible,” I groan. “We did not get home until five o’clock.” “Five o’clock yesterday, Baby.” Realization hits me. I must have been more tired than I realized. The last thing I remember was having a hot shower with Aaron, eating more food than I want to admit to eating, having a second round with Aaron in our bed, and then asking Aaron if we could talk after a took a quick nap. Apparently that nap was the longest nap ever. I try to stretch my arms, but one arm hits something hard. I blink open my eyes and see Aaron laying on his side, with one arm supporting his head as he stares at me. He smiles as soon as our eyes meet. “Good morning, Sweetheart,” he says. “Good morning, Aaron,” I smile back at
My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 105: Reunion, Part 2
(Paige POV) When we finally made it back to Blue Moon, my emotions were a muddled mess: —I was relieved to be back. —I was happy to be alive and unharmed. —I felt both sad and betrayed about everything involving my sister. —I was horrified about having watched my sister be murdered in front of me. —I was scared and nervous to see Jason again, after having rejected him for the second time less than a week ago. —I was still upset with Jason for having knocked up my best friend. —I was still in shock that Granny Apple played a role in Sarah getting pregnant. Complicating my mess of emotions even more was the reality that I was hungry, dehydrated, and exhausted. When I saw Aaron race from the packhouse to greet Cassie, my heart felt happy for the two of them… and a little jealous too. I could not help but wonder if Jason and I would ever get to that point, or if my happiness —like that of Aaron and Cassie— would be found in the arms of a second chance mate. Carly growled in
My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 104: Reunion, Part 1
(Aaron POV) As soon as I heard that Cassie was at the border, I took off running. I shifted into my wolf in order to run faster, not caring that I was shredding my clothes in the process. I did not bother to mind-link anyone; I knew my father would do so. All I cared about was getting to Cassie. I reached Cassie within just a few minutes. I was vaguely aware that Paige, a baby, and a few of our border guards were standing nearby, but no one else mattered to me in that moment. I quickly shifted back to my human form and wrapped Cassie up in my arms. I am not ashamed to admit that —as I clung to her as though my life depended on it— I buried my head in her neck and cried. They were happy tears, but tears all the same. For her part, Cassie clung to me just as much if not more than I clung to her. I could feel her tears on my bare shoulder, so I knew she was crying just like I was. After a couple of minutes, I finally —although reluctantly— pulled away from her just a little bi
My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 103: Natalie's Dress
(24 hours earlier)(Cassie POV)“I… I have so many questions,” I tell Bobby after listening to his story.“I do, too,” Paige whispers. I glance at her and can tell that she is in shock. So much of what she has thought and believed for the past several years has been turned upside down in the matter of a single 10-minute conversation. “I’ll answer what I can until Shelly gets here.”“After all Shelly and the Moonlight Six did to you… why are you dating Shelly?”“Keep your friends close; your enemies closer,” Bobby responds as though it is nothing.“Don’t you feel like you are… cheating on your mate?” Paige asks.If my handcuffs would allow it, I would reach over and slap Paige upside the head. Seriously, that was the first question she asked Bobby? I remind myself that she is in shock and going through a lot, but I also chuckle a little bit as I realize Jason would likely have asked the same question.Instead of answering Paige, Bobby growls angrily. Paige seems to realize her
