“Another one?”
“What’s going on?”
“How is this happening?” I heard these whispers as the onlookers were just as shocked as Cedar looked.
“It seems this is a very fortunate day. Cedar, it appears your mate is in among this envoy from the Fae. Will you all please join us up here.” Joaquin invited the group forward. I could see Cedar looking at the group curiously, trying to figure out who in the group was his mate.
The group moved forward, all but one was looking at Joaquin. A pretty young girl with bright green eyes and long ashy blonde hair was staring straight at Cedar. She had a confused look on her face.
“This is impossible.” An exotic looking man with golden eyes and a beautiful mahogany complexion spoke with disbelief, disdain, and anger in his voice.
“How is it impossible?” Joaquin smiled at the man. “This is a wonderful thing to have happen. An event so filled with love that it is spreading to those around us.”
“It is not right that one of us should mate with a shifter. We are not of the same type of people. This is not proper.” His exoticly accented voice was trying to nullify everything that was happening.
“Is the Fae Queen against a relationship like this, Breon?” Joaquin asked him, slight anger in his voice.
“She does not usually approve.” The man named Breon answered.
“I admit it has been quite some time since I have met with Gloriana, but when last we spoke she was more open to a new world way of thinking.” Dietrich stood up from the table that Cedar and Shane had both been sitting at. “I am certain that she would have no problem with the union. The Fae have mixed with humans, why not another powerful species?”
“It has never been done.” Breon told him. “You simply would not understand.”
“I understand more than you think.” Dietrich smiled down at Shawn as he spoke, causing Shawn to blush under his gaze. “I have recently mated within this pack myself.”
“You, Dietrich, the leader of all vampires is allowing yourself to be sullied like this.”
“Breon! Stop this.” The beautiful girl with the bright green eyes yelled. “I am certain that Queen Glory would have no problem with it at all.” She was smiling at Cedar.
“Acacia, you understand nothing.”
“I understand everything Breon. I am the one who feels what the spirits are telling me.”
“I trust in Casey.” Another woman in the group chimed in. “We must follow not just our hearts, but also the whims of the spirits and gods. We are but pawns in this world for them to move at their leisure.”
“Thank you River.” Acacia smiled at her, it seemed Casey was a nickname for her.
“Is this truly what you wish to do? To lower yourself to this point?”
“It seems to me Breon, that you are the only one with a bias here. Believe in the powers that lead us all. That is all we can do, is it not.” I spoke up, unable to remain quiet any longer.
The man Breon looked at me in disbelief. He simply was not understanding it yet.
“How can you all not see what is happening here.” He asked in desperation.
“You have not been mated yet have you Breon?” I asked him. The man shook his head, the gleaming sunlight softening his face that had fallen in his slight embarrassment. “Then you would not understand the feeling you have when you are with your mate. The sense of completion, the feeling of being at home no matter where you are. You would not understand the longing you feel for that person even with the first meeting. You would not understand the sense of peace you feel when looking at them, seeing the love and adoration you feel reflected back in their eyes as well. I am sorry that you have never felt that, Breon, and I ask the Moon Goddess to help you with finding you mate soon.”
“That may happen sooner than you think.” A strange, gravelly voice spoke out and rang through the entire reception.

The slightly French accented voice brought the conversation to a screeching halt. We all seemingly turned in unison, toward the man who had spoken. There were a dozen people in long black cloaks standing at the far edge of the yard, just under the cover of the trees near the driveway. Their scents were masked by the mass amount of guests as well as the trees. But there still seemed to be something off about their smell.
“We seem to have new guests.” Joaquin’s voice was calm and welcoming but I could also detect a certain amount of anger and leadership mixed in as well. “Who might we have the pleasure of meeting with today?”
“Greetings to you, I am Gabriel Abadie, the Watcher from the Sentinelle, it is a pleasure to meet you, the Consort to the Goddess.”
“Can you explain a little more please? I have never heard of the Sentinelle, and I am most definitely not the consort to the Goddess.”
“Have you not married her this very day?” The man asked as he walked forward, the others followed after him.
Seeing these unknown group of people walk forward all of my guards rose from their seats and speedily moved to stand around Joaquin and myself. Even Emmalee, Dietrich, Rawlynne, and Jackson joined the guards protecting us. The group stopped when they were a little more than halfway to us.
“We mean you no harm. I am sincerely sorry for any concern our sudden arrival may have caused.”
“What exactly are you after?” Noah demanded as he stood beside Joaquin, taking his Beta role seriously.
“As I have already stated, I am the Watcher, the highest authority within the Sentinelle.”
“What is the Sentinelle?” I asked the man.
“In short, the job of the Sentinelle has been to wait, and search, for you.” He looked at me with an intense look.
“Me?” I looked around nervously. “Why?”
“You stay away from my wife.” Joaquin stepped in front of me protectively.
“Again, we are not here to cause harm.” Gabriel told him. “We are an organization who has been looking for the next incarnation of the Moon Goddess.” These words sent a shock through the entire wedding. “You, Riviana Gray, are the new incarnation of the Goddess. This is her second reincarnation since she lived two thousand years ago.”
“I think you might be mistaken, I cannot be the Goddess.” I denied.
“What reasons do you have to believe we are wrong?” Another member of the group asked as he finally spoke up. “We Seekers search the world for the Goddess, we know that you are the one we have been looking for.” This man’s voice was not quite as accented as Gabriel’s.
“What reasons do you have for thinking she is?” Joaquin demanded.
“Consort, there are many reasons. We know that she has been goddess blessed with a mark much more special than anyone who has ever been mate marked before. We know that she has powers beyond that of any normal wolf. She is a special being, brought about to make great changes and lead the wolves as the new Goddess and the Luna Queen.” At these words the dozen men and women that had approached us knelt to the ground, kneeling before me as if I truly were a queen.
A hush fell over everyone present. All I could see as I looked around those closest to me were wide eyed stares and mouths gaping open.
“How do you know all of that?” Joaquin asked the group that called themselves Sentinelle.”
“Our organization has been around since the days of the original Goddess. We have been tasked with passing along the information the Goddess herself shared with her children. It is our job to awaken the power that is within the Goddess Incarnate.” Garbriel sounded so sincere as he spoke.
“Awaken it how?” Carter demanded.
“Through training and enlightenment. We must pass on the knowledge we have kept ready and waiting for her, and help her forge on ahead. We are honored to be in your presence Goddess, and we within the Sentinelle are here to serve as your loyal subjects. We will be the first to join the ranks of your Goddess Guard.”
