My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 76: Teenage Crush
(Jason POV)After we left Candy’s apartment, I headed directly to Alpha Ryan’s pack. Candy realized right away that we were not heading towards Blue Moon, and she seemed to panic.“Where are we going?” she asked.“To River Bend, Alpha Ryan’s pack.”“Why?”“Because Alpha Ryan is one of the most powerful wolves on the werewolf council, and he maintains the highest level of security possible. Getting in there is like breaking in to Fort Knox. If someone is following you… following us… they will have a very hard time getting in there. It isn’t very far away from here, and it will be a good place for us to talk things out.”“If the pack is so secure, how are we going to get in?”It was a fair question. After the spectacle I made of myself at Cassie’s sister’s wedding, I could hardly count Alpha Ryan as a friend. If anything, Alpha Ryan probably hated me because of what happened and because Aaron hated me; the two of them had become decent pals in the months I had been away.“I asked

****Trigger Warning: This chapter will include brief references to possible sexual assault and frustrating third-party reactions to it. ****(Candy/ Paige POV)“So, anyway, I sent Peter multiple love notes and a couple pairs of my used underwear…”I watched Jason’s face as I confessed this part of the story. I could not gauge his reaction. If anything, he seemed a little bored. I wish I could feel bored with the story too. Instead, I can feel my blood pressure slowly begin to increase, and I can feel emotions begin to re-surface that I have long since kept locked away.I continued my story, but I did so while staring at my hands. Jason’s bored eyes aren’t helping.“I continued the gifts off-and-on for about a year. I only sent my underwear a couple of times, but I also sent him chocolates, silk boxers, and other random trinkets. Every gift came with a stupid lame note that I wrote. Usually, the notes said something lame like ‘I hope you are having a great day,’ or ‘I can’t wa

***Trigger Warning: This chapter will contain a few more passing references to sexual assault, plus a little bit of a steamy scene.**** (Cassie POV) The run with Aaron, Megan, Mike, and Luke was fun. It was nice to be able to run and play in our wolf forms. We do not get to do that often enough. Missy especially enjoyed getting some extra time to play and bond with Xavier (Aaron’s wolf). When we got back to the suite, Granny Apple and Albert were in the living room, having finally come up for air. I noticed that Granny Apple had a worried look on her face, and I was about to ask her about it when Aaron’s phone rang. Aaron showed me that it was Jason, and he then stepped into another room to take the call. These days, Jason and Aaron rarely talk, so Jason calling Aaron made both of us think that something was wrong. About 10 minutes later, Aaron stepped out with a worried look on his face that matched the one that Granny Apple was wearing. “Everything ok?” I asked. Inste

***Trigger Warning: This is the final chapter that attempted or potential sexual assault will be briefly referenced. We will start to get back to (mostly) happier topics in following chapters. ***(Jason POV)The next morning could not come soon enough. Jake and I were desperate for answers.Thankfully, Granny Apple did not make us wait long. By 8:30 a.m., she had myself, Cassie, and Aaron all gathered in the alpha suite living room for “story time.”Before beginning, she talked to me as though I was a 5-year-old pup. She told me that she would not tolerate interruptions. She also told me that I would have to hold questions for the end. If I could not control myself, I could leave… but if I left, I would miss parts of the story, because she was unwilling to tell the story more than once.Once Granny Apple confirmed that I understood and would obey her rules —she really is scary when she is serious and angry; I think she could take down some alpha wolves just by looking at them—

(Jason POV)I stood up and looked at Granny Apple angrily."What do you mean 'We don't'?? What was the point of telling us any of this if it isn't to help us find Paige?"Granny Apple stood up and glared right back at me. "Watch your tone, Child. I have already warned you what will happen if you don't."I continued to glare at her, but I was eventually forced to look away. I am a strong, young beta wolf... and yet this short sassy 79-year-old grandmother scares the wolf out of me."Fine! I'm sorry. But please... we have to find Paige. It hasn't even been 24 hours and my wolf is already going nuts. I need to find her. I am scared what might happen to her out there by herself.""Paige will be fine; she is very self sufficient and I will be able to feel it if she is in trouble. She needs space right now. When she is ready and settled, she will call me. She always does. I told you her story because you need to be prepared when she reaches out. You can't keep making stupid mistak
Last Updated : 2023-07-11My Mate's Wedding Drama Chapter 81: The Search
(Jason POV) It has been two very long months since I have seen or talked to Paige. This has been an incredibly different experience than the experience that I had when Cassie and I were apart for three months. For one thing, I feel my wolf getting weaker and weaker. I can hardly sleep, and when I do, I dream about Paige. I also find myself thinking and worrying about her constantly. I really do not know how much longer I can make it without Paige by my side. There are only two things that are keeping my wolf and I sane right now. First, without beta duties weighing me down, I have had the luxury of spending most of my time focused on locating and neutralizing Paige's stalker. This way, our pack will be safe for Paige if and when she returns. Of course, I also hope that my investigation will give me clues as to how the stalker keeps finding Paige, so that I can find Paige myself. To these ends --armed with information given to me by Granny Apple-- I have been busy retracing

(Cassie POV)For the fourth time today, my sister calls me. I pick up the phone, feeling exacerbated.“Megan, what now?”“They are fighting again.”“So leave the room.”“I can’t. They are so loud. Plus I am the Luna… not that they care. They refuse to listen to me. Besides, the fight is already over. Plllllllleeeeeeeeeassssssssse, Cassie, I need your help.”I sigh. I love my sister, and I love Granny Apple, but I am getting very tired of refereeing every little fight that happens at White Howlers.As you might imagine, Granny Apple going to live there has not been one of the easiest transitions. The first night Granny Apple was there, she and Albert fought over the fact that Albert wanted them to have separate bedrooms until they were married. One of Granny Apple’s more priceless quotes from that night was, “So I am good enough for you to put your dick in, but not good enough to lay next to while you snore?” Albert eventually won that fight, but Granny Apple did not go down

(Paige POV)Another two weeks have passed by, and I have been fighting with Carly every day. She desperately wants to go back to Blue Moon to see Jason. She is getting weaker without him, and she is done listening to me complain about my insecurities and about not being ready. But for our lurking stalker, I am sure Carly would have already forced a shift so that she could run back to Blue Moon.Meanwhile, even without Carly’s incessant begging, I can feel my own resolve starting to slip. As much as I love Tyler, Texas, I am not enjoying my wedding planning business as much as I thought I would. It is one thing to deal with brides for short periods of time as they pick wedding dresses; it is another to deal with brides for hours and hours as they go through the entire wedding process. Add to that my own messed-up love life, and I’m pretty sure I have spent more time questioning how long some of these marriages will last than I have spent actually planning their weddings.Of cours

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
