All Chapters of The Alpha's Companion: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

After leaving her mother and seeing Scar, Lacey headed to her room to dress for dinner. She quickly bathed and dressed in a long, purple gown that fell over her body like water. This was the last night before she and Julien were to marry. Lacey just hoped that her family behaved themselves. But if they caused any trouble at all, she would have them thrown out.But then again, her family may not be the ones to cause trouble. Scar had overheard her conversation with her mother earlier, and it was clear that she had heard enough to bury her. If Julien heard it from Scar, he'd never believe that she was of royal blood.No, Lacey's best chance, her only chance with Julien, was to tell him herself. When she was ready, Lacey hurried down the five flights of stairs and Julien was standing outside the dining hall."Julien, I have to talk to you—""Can it wait?" he asked, smiling. "Both of our packs are waiting for us.""No, it can't—""Tell me inside." Julien gave her a cocky grin. "I'm eager

When Lacey woke the next morning, the events from the night before came rushing back—her family making fools of themselves, her sister's jealousy. Then Julien believing her and telling her that she had his heart. She smiled at the memory.Lacey sat up and then fell back down onto the pillows, grateful that the wedding wasn't until that evening. At least she would have all day to get ready."Good morning, Princess!" Gwen stepped into the room, carrying a tray, amused when she saw that Lacey was still in bed."Good morning but go away." Lacey closed her eyes and pulled the pillow over her head, needing more sleep. After the events of the night before and thinking about the wedding today, she couldn't sleep half the night.Gwen chuckled. "Here." Lacey opened her eyes and Gwen handed her a glass of orange juice. "Drink this. It'll make you feel better. It'll replenish your electrolytes and hydrate you at the same time."Lacey took a sip and sighed. It felt cool going down. "Thank you.""Yo

"Attention, everyone!" One of Julien's men made an announcement in the hallway. "Please join Mr. and Mrs. Julien Grey in the garden for the reception. Thank you.""Shall we?" Julien asked, offering her his arm, having never felt happier in his life.Lacey nodded, slipping her arm in his, and he began to escort her out. "Julien, you have my heart, too." Then he remembered having told her that the night before, and his heart leapt.He looked down at her and placed his hand over hers on his arm. The photographer snapped a picture as they walked out into the garden.Julien smiled and dipped her again, giving her another kiss when the photographer snapped another picture. But before he let her up, he looked into her eyes. "I love you, Mrs. Grey."He let her up just as Rock, one of his men, announced over the loudspeaker, "May I announce the arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Julien Grey, our Alpha and Alpha Queen!" Rock shouted. Julian led her to the dance floor, set up in the middle of the garden, f

As instructed, Lacey had the staff move her things into the spare room in Julien's suite, and she spent the afternoon organizing everything. Madame Pomeroy had also brought a lot of the wardrobe to the wedding that she had shown Lacey. Luckily, there was a double closet for her to put everything in, and her new bedroom was much bigger. Between the wardrobe Julien had bought her at Aurora and now the clothes from Madame Pomeroy, Lacey had more clothes and shoes than she knew what to do with. She also had a private bathroom off her new bedroom. After everything was organized, she took a shower and dressed in a casual outfit and waited for Julien. It was their wedding night, after all.While she was waiting, Lacey had the unsettling urge to want to help with the cleanup and the possible interrogation of any Wildclaws that were caught. But from what she saw, it was more of a hit and run. The Wildclaws came in long enough to wreak havoc and then left just as quickly. It was strange. Why wo

When she arrived in the practice ring, a few shifters were already there, sparing in their human forms. Watching Car standing off to the side, talking to another shifter, Lacey had mixed emotions about her. Why would Scar stand up for her to Julien? Was it for Lacey's benefit, or for her own? But Lacey figured that the truth would come out eventually. "Yeah, you should have seen me during the attack!" Scar said to the other shifter. "I scared off those Wildclaws! Once they saw my moves, they headed for the hills!"The shifter she was talking to just listened but said nothing, obviously afraid of her. "Oh, yeah?" Lacey said, slipping on her MMA fighting gloves. "During the attack when I was fighting alongside the Alpha, I didn't see you at all.""You probably just didn't see me," Scar interjected.Lacey shook her head, smiling. "I don't think so." When she was ready, she walked into the practice ring, barefoot, and ready to work off some steam. "You mind?" She was asking the shifters
