Chapter 19
A few hours had past since the howl. Seth slept between Destiny and Kate. Kate rested her arm over Seth and Destiny slept with her nose in Seth’s shoulder. Seth was considered a mate to Kate and Destiny and it was allowed since his Alpha ceremony was first thing in the morning along with Michael’s funeral. Then the group would start home. Seth would arrange a marriage for him and his new mates in secrecy as soon as they got home. Not only would that elongate their week long honeymoon, but they would have the right to have pups. Seth could tell that out of Kate and Destiny, Destiny would be excited to hear that. Great job Seth. You’re mated for life.... Seth thought to himself. Seth stretched out his hind legs. Then he felt Kate stir beside him. He leaned over and kissed her nose. She immediately stopped moving and nuzzled her nose into Seth’s chest fur. Seth’s corazón felt warm inside upon feeling that. Why couldn’t he fall asleep? Too excited? Maybe... But he was happy. And loved. Nothing could ruin this perfect life.

The birds were out and chirping. The horizon was simply naranja and pink. It was about 6:30 in the morning. Seth tried to get up and stretch as he usually did, but his arms were weighed down. He struggled to pull them up. He turned to his left and his right, however what he found was two she-wolves snuggled up to him. He laughed at his paranoia and kissed them both before gently removing his arms from their grasps. He got up and stretched. He raised his rear into the air, stretching his forearms, and then lifted his chest into the air, stretching out his hind legs. He sat at the edge of the entrance from his den. He looked out the entrance. He watched as the birds flew por and as the wind swept the grass. Seth felt great. He took his paw and brushed away the pelaje, piel over his scarred eye so he could see más of it. Little did he know that one of his mates was waking. Destiny padded siguiente to him. She sat siguiente to him. “Good morning Seth...” Destiny dicho sweetly, leaning her head against Seth’s shoulder affectionately. Seth, not expecting his mate to sit siguiente to him like that, he quickly brushed the hair back over his eye, however only ended up with the hair screwed over both his eyes. Destiny turned to him. “Are... Are tu ok?” Destiny asked, nosing the hair over his face away. Her eyes widened upon seeing Seth’s scarred eye. “Oh... Oh my!” She exclaimed. Seth looked at her uneasily. “Are tu ok?” Destiny asked lovingly. “Y-yeah... It hurt like... A week ago...” “Oh... Sorry, it just looked so painful...” “Yeah, It was.” Seth replied. Destiny nodded. “How’d it happen?” Destiny asked, her blue eyes wide. Seth wasn’t about to lie to his mate. “On the night that Kate and I broke up,” “Wait... tu and Kate were in love? When tu were a delta?” Seth nodded. “How sweet!” She smiled. “So, On that night, I ran into the forest. Unwittingly, I fell into a thorn bush.” Seth prepared for Destiny to laugh, however she responded por licking Seth’s scarred eye. It tickled. Seth held back a laugh. She smiled at him. “So you’re fine now?” “yes.” “Sure?” “Yes.” “Really?” “Really!” This was going on forever. “Really really?” Destiny asked, this time with a playful tone in her voice. Seth shook his head, smiling. He walked back into the den. “How long is she going to sleep...” Seth asked annoyed, looking at Kate. “I’m awake now. I just don’t want to get up.” Kate replied curtly. Destiny snickered. “Well come on! I’m gonna go get ready for the ceremony.” Seth explained. Kate immediately jumped up. “It’s today!?” Kate exclaimed. Seth nodded. “Well then come on!” Kate laughed, walking out of the den. Seth and Destiny exchanged looks before following.

Liam woke up siguiente to Saphire. Saphire was curled up in his arms. Liam was sore from last night. Liam smiled at remembering Saphire that night. She was usually so calm, but that night she was wild and passionate. He liked it. He looked outside and saw Seth, Kate, and Destiny heading out of their den. Seth walked along with Kate and Destiny at his sides. He watched as within a few moments, Kate and Destiny erupted into laughter. Liam smiled at this. He shook his head, before heading back to Saphire and curling up around her. “What was it?” She asked. Liam thought before answering. “Seth. Him having fun.” Liam replied. Saphire then tucked her head into her mate’s chest. Then the gentle purring of Saphire’s snoring continued.

“OWNED!” Seth exclaimed, splashing water onto Kate and Destiny. “Hey whoa! I’m just getting ready here! Splash some on Destiny!” Kate laughed. Seth then turned to Destiny with a huge smile and a playful look on his face. Destiny then shook her head with a huge smile on her face and her eyes widened. Seth leapt over to her and she started running. She turned around and jumped over Seth. He responded por jumping up and catching her before she went over him. They landed on the grass, laughing. Kate smiled. She began to fix her hair. “Hey Seth. The reason we came was to fix tu up. Not to play. Come here.” Kate ordered. Still laughing, Seth padded over to his mate. He sat down in front of her. Kate roughly pulled him towards her. Then the smile immediately disappeared from Seth’s face. Kate began scrubbing all over Seth. “Hey. I’m not going down there. tu wash that.” Kate laughed. Seth did as he was told, like a child. Destiny hopped into the stream and helped Kate scrub down Seth. All the grub and stuff on his pelaje, piel immediately washed off. “Thanks tu two... I hope tu know how much this- Ern!” Seth grunted, as Kate used her teeth to tug on one of Seth’s locks, fully cleaning it. “I hope tu know how this means to me...” Seth finished. “Uh huh!” Destiny mumbled, grooming Seth’s chest, por gently licking it. He leaned over to Destiny and kissed her head. Kate did the same to Seth.

Within 20 minutes, Seth was completely cleaned off. His pelaje, piel shined when the sun reflected off of it. Seth jokingly boasted to his mates that it was because his pelaje, piel was glossy but he knew it was because of the water. He approached the camp. “Thanks girls...” dicho Seth. Kate smiled at him lifting her head and then immediately lowered it again looking forward. Destiny leaned on Seth affectionately. Noticing Seth’s reaction, Kate did the same. Wow... Seth thought.
