“Would a fist bump be an inappropriate response?” Alexander asked quietly.

“Not if they don’t see it,” Galen replied immediately.

They both very subtly raised their fists to each other for a quick bump.

“I got married,” Selene whispered.

She crouched down and crossed her arms over her knees, resting her chin on her arm as she spoke.

“You know all those plans we made? All the nights we stayed up late cutting out pictures and discussing which colors would be best for bridesmaid dresses… all that hard work we did? Totally threw it all out the window.”

Selene laughed softly.

“It was a spur-of-the-moment elopement sort of thing,” she continued. “It came after a lot of back and forth ‘will they? won’t they?’ sort of drama so… very romantic.”

Selene took a deep breath, letting it out slowly. She reached forward and pushed away a dry leaf from the stone.

“You would have loved it.”

“You would have blubbered like a baby,” Bell interjected.

She crouched down beside Selene and placed a single small flower on top of the stone, just above the fireworks she had painted for her.

“You did,” Selene chuckled, nudging Bell gently.

“Yea, well…” Bell smiled. “I was happy.”

Selene smiled and looked away as the tears gathered in her eyes.

“We’re not doing that,” Bell said, pointing at Selene. “We are not crying.”

“No, of course not,” Selene said, wiping her eyes as the tears started to fall.

“Renee, take note, Selene is the one bringing down the mood. I’m just here trying to show off my studly husband, she’s over here blubbering.”

“Alright, alright, I’m not crying,” Selene laughed.

“Are we interrupting?” Alexander asked, gently placing his hand on Selene’s shoulder.

Selene stood up and shook her head. Then, moving to lean against him, he placed his arm around her shoulder.

Bell stood up and took Galen’s hand.

“You’re right on time,” she said.

Bell looked to Selene who nodded.

“Renee, I want you to meet my husband, Galen,” Bell said with a bright smile. “You might recognize him as the Summer wolf you pretty much told me to avoid.”

Selene laughed.

“And this is my husband, Alpha Alexander, who you definitely told me to avoid.”

They all laughed.

The men introduced themselves and promised to take care of their respective wives. Jokes were told, and memories were shared.

As they walked down the path, returning home, the boys walked ahead while Selene and Bell walked a little slower.

“Do you think she would have approved?” Selene asked, watching Alexander and Galen chatting as they walked.

“I think she would have had a hard time adapting to the idea at first,” Bell replied, “but in the end, they are just too cute not to love.”

Selene laughed.

“That’s true.”

Bell nodded, and then chewed on her lower lip as though she were thinking about something.

“Are you ok?” Selene asked.

“Hmm?”

“You were chewing on your lip,” Selene said. “You usually only do that when you are nervous or worried about something.”

“Oh,” Bell said. “Well, I am a little worried about Galen’s hair. It’s just that my dark hair with his green eyes would be so much cuter, ya know?”

Selene stopped and stared at her friend, Bell turned and tilted her head.

“What?” she smiled innocently.

Selene squealed in delight and hugged her.

A few feet away, Galen and Alexander glanced back.

“Guess Bell told Selene,” Galen said.

“Told her what?” Alexander asked.

Galen turned with a proud smile.

“We’re having a pup.”

“I’m so happy for you, darling,” Corrine smiled brightly as she pulled Bell into a hug.

“Congratulations,” Wyatt said, offering his hand to Galen.

“Thank you, Alpha Wyatt,” Galen said, taking his hand.

“Actually,” Wyatt said, looking around at everyone gathered. “I am no longer Alpha.”

Corrine smiled.

“As of the full moon, I am simply a member of Winter,” Wyatt smiled. “Our one and only Alpha is Axel.”

The eyes of everyone in the room turned to Axel.

“Is this news to you?” he replied simply.

“What about you, mom?” Selene asked. “Since Axel doesn’t have a mate, will you still be Luna?”

“Of cour–” Axel began.

“Axel and I will discuss that. Then, when we have a decision, we will let everyone know,” Corrine smiled.

Selene nodded, simply accepting her decree.

Axel, however, caught the raised eyebrow and knowing look in Corrine’s eye. He swallowed nervously and looked away.

“I hate to interrupt the mood, but, Selene, we should really get going,” Alexander said.

“Is it really a big deal if we are late? Aren’t we just going back to Summer?” Selene asked.

Bell and Corrine giggled. Galen smiled.

Selene glanced around and then back at Alexander.

“There’s something I don’t know isn’t there?” she asked.

He laughed.

“My mother and Galen have agreed to handle my duties in Summer for the next two weeks,” he said. “You and I are heading to the airport.”

Selene’s eyes widened.

“The… airport?”
