"Oh my gooodness! Is she here yet?!" My annoying older sister squeals while gripping my arm as I roll my eyes.

"Can you stop with the yelling, she already texted me she's on her way just be patient. And don't embarrass her or bombard her with all you guys questions at once. I just want this to be a normal night of both of our families to meet for the first time, not a night where you guys attack her with all your investigation questions" I explain while rolling my eyes at all my family members excitedly staring at the main entrance of our castle doors.

"There's already so many people here, why don't you guys go talk to t-" before I could continue my wolf already sensed my mate outside.

"Don't overreact and act normal! For once at least" I mutter the ending of my sentence before turning around to see my mate walking inside the front doors with her family and Alejandro beside her.

"Bunny" I greet her happily with a smile as she smiles back while waking up to me.

"You look as beautiful as ever" I whisper while kissing her hand gently as her face turns red.

"Oh my moon goddess! My baby brother was right! You are the most beautiful female wolf in all the kingdom" Jezzabelle says pushing past me to hold my mates hand as her red face turned even brighter in embarrassment.

"My name is Jezzabelle, I am the beautiful and smart older sister of my handsome little John John" She says winking at me as I groan at the nickname she still calls me after all these years.

"You must be the over protective older brother that my brother over exaggerates about when he explains his mates family" Jason says now reaching out to Vivians older brother who was standing behind her as they shook hands.

"I'm Jason, the so called overprotective oldest sibling of these two" He explains while wrapping his large arms around mine and Jezzabelle's shoulder.

"And we are the parents to all these beautiful 3" My mother says walking past us to stand in front of my mate who was looking up at her nervously.

"My name is Jackelyn Johnson and my lovely son who is your mate was happily named after my beautiful husband here" She says shaking Vivians hand before wrapping her arms around my dad that was smiling down at Vivian now.

"John Senior, here" My dad says with a wide grin as Vivian holds out her hand only to have both of us be surprised when my father pulls her into a tight bear hug.

"Okay John calm down! Don't break the poor girl!" My mother snaps before forcing a smile when my father giggles while putting a shocked Vivian back onto the floor.

"Hello your highnesses, I would just like to start off by saying that we are so honored to be personally invited for the first time ever to your spontaneous castle that we have always dreamed of walking into" Vivians Mom, Victoria, says walking in front of Vivian now with a large tray in her hand.

"Oh! What is this?" My mom gasps as Victoria smiles.

"Well, when my daughter was saying that my new in laws were expecting us for our first meet, I just couldn't stop myself from making a delicious tray of my homemade peach pie" She replies happily with a smirk as I realized it was the pie that Vivian told me before that her mother uses to win people over with just one bite.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Victoria here loves to bake" I say taking the tray from her hand as my moms hungry eyes followed it.

"So you must be the lovely Victoria Tran that my youngest son in law is always bragging about being the best baker" The father of Kadens, my older sisters husband and our alpha king, Kane Kingsley says now stepping in front of Vivian and her family with his wife glued to his side like always.

"Oh my gosh! Your a baker too?! Did my son ever mention that he basically grew up in his early childhood years in the bakery that our family owned since I was pregnant with my son Jason here" My mother says excitedly pulling Victoria away to start her usual rambling like always when she's really interested in a conversation.

"So your the so called protective older brother I assume?" Jason asks suspiciously looking Damian up and down.

And as for the first time I've ever seen him do this in front of me, Damian actually smiles at my older brother who wraps his arm around him as if they've known each other longer than the past 5 minutes they've just met.

"Alpha man child over there seems to think I'm also to over protective of my little sister as well, and can I just say we as the older brothers and natural first protectors of our younger siblings have the right to be protective in the first place, am I correct or am I correct?" Jason states while smirking at Kaden who is being held back by my pregnant sister.

"Jason! Why don't you stop with the testosterone bickering and get your hungry son a plate of fruits from one of the cooks in the kitchen?" Pamela says handing her mate his adorable 3 year old son.

"But-" before he could start protesting his wife pushed him towards the kitchen of the castle while rolling her eyes.

"Hello, my name is Pamela Johnson and I am the wife of your mates annoying older brother" She says now introducing herself to Vivian.

"And who might the handsome gentleman here might be?" The former Luna of our kingdom and my sisters mother in law, Cindy Kingsley inputs while gesturing towards an awkwardly silent Alejandro.

"This is my Bestfriend Alejandro. I hope you guys don't mind, he doesn't have much friends in the pack and I wanted to bring him out as much as I can to get him more involved in our pack since he moved here a few months ago" Vivian replies while pulling Alejandros arm so he can stand in front of Cindy now who was examining him suspiciously.

"Just moved here a few months ago? You wouldn't happen to be the boy that moved into the pack with the woman who lives at the edge of the kingdom?" She asks making me and Vivian look towards her confused.

"Yes, my mother and I moved into the small blue house right at the edge of your kingdom your majesty" He answers back as she laughs.

"No need to call me all that royalty nonsense, I've been retired of my thrown and crown, which was very much needed, ever since my beautiful daughter in law has married my hot headed son" She rolls her eyes playfully before the loud sound of music startled her.

We all turned seeing the doors to our packed ballroom opened and her nephew Sam walked out with his mate linked to him by her arm.

"I was in search of my stunning auntie who promised me a dance on the dance floor, but I'm surprised to see you outside of the ballroom" He says smiling at Cindy who looks like she just remembered what he said.

"Oh! Yes, sorry Sam. I was trying to meet the wonderful mate of our dear Johnny boy here. After all he is the last of you beautiful children to find a wonderful mate" She says gesturing Sam towards my mate who was entranced by the gown Sams mate was wearing.

"It's nice to finally meet the girl my cousin in law here has been so smitten about ever since he came home raving about meeting you under the bleachers at school" Sam chuckles while shaking Vivians hand as she smiles shyly at his words.

"My name is-" before Sams mate could finish Vivian answered back excitedly shocking all of us.

"Princess Eleanor of the Blood Moon Pack and Kingdom. It's such an honor to meet you, your highness. I am a very big fan of your clothing designs and your history of influencing millions of kingdoms to finally let female wolves become warriors alongside men during wars in our community" Vivian explains quickly while shaking Eleanors hand happily making Sam laugh at how excited she was to meet his mate.

"I like you already, what is your name?" Eleanor ask as Vivian replies with her name quickly.

"When you come to our wedding next weekend, I'd be more than happy to give you some beautiful gowns I'll have left over from my fashion show I'll be having the night before" Eleanor comments making my mate look like she was about to faint in shock at the princess words.

"If you don't mind, we have to announce our engagement celebration speech in the ballroom" Sam says nodding at Vivian as she nods quickly letting them head inside the ballroom before walking up to me excitedly.

"You are taking me to their wedding right?" She asks in concern as I laughed before nodding.

"Anything for my mate" I reply as she hugs me tightly as I looked over seeing Alejandro doing something that looked familiar to what I did the first night I met Vivian.

"Alejandro what are you doing?" Vivian asks noticing him now as I held her back from going to him when he followed his senses into the ballroom.

"Holy shit!" Vivian gasps as I calmed her down from another one of her excitement outburst.

"He smells his mate right? Or am I going crazy?" She gasps while whispering as I laughed while leading her into the ballroom following Alejandros path.

As soon as we walked into the ballroom the sight of a large grey wolf was now standing in the middle of the ballroom where everyone was standing aside except for princess Eleanor and her father, King Nicholas.

"Wait is Alejandros mate-" before Vivian could finish saying what every one in the room was thinking, the sound of Alejandros growl was heard throughout the whole castle.

"Mate" A light voice says from behind Princess Eleanors father as we all watched the sight of a girl that looked the complete opposite of princess Eleanor shove her way past the kings guarding body just to wrap her short arms around Alejandros large grey wolf.

We all know who it was just by the voice and the fact that Princess Eleanors family only insisted of her father King Nicholas, his wife Queen Margaret, and his two daughters. The most known of the two daughters, Princess Eleanor, the oldest and the daughter from his first mate who was killed just a few months before Eleanor turned 18.

The younger sister on the other hand isn't known at all, compared to her sister that everyone knows and heard of, Princess Phoebe was the daughter that people disliked and never took notice of because of the fact that she was the child birthed into the royal kingdom just a few days after King Nicholas married his 2nd mate Queen Margaret which people in her own kingdom disliked and misjudged just because she was seen as the other woman after Queen Elenas death.

Unlike Princess Eleanor, Princess Phoebe looked nothing like her father. Princess Eleanor got her tall body, tan skin, long brown hair, and light brown eyes from king Nicholas. Which everyone in the kingdoms were very fond of as the sight of a princess.

Princess Phoebe on the other hand, took after her mother Queen Margaret. She was short, with a milky skin complexion, light freckle patterns on her round cheeks, dark green eyes, and also the most noticeable of it all was the fact that she was a red head just like her mother as well.

In most kingdoms, it's not often we see the sight of a werewolf with red hair and when they shift into their wolves, their fur color shouldn't be dark orange. But that's how queen Margaret and Princess Phoebes wolves were.

"Who are you growling at you lowlife peasant?! I demand you to release my daughter or I'll remover her myself and throw you into the dungeons right after!

The king shouts before the view of Kaden and Sam running in between the main heated level of angry tension flowing throughout the whole kingdom.

"What is going on here?!" Kaden snaps trying to create space in between the protective large wolf and the overprotective father.

"Tell this scoundrel to let go of my daughter at once!" King Nicholas snaps at Kaden before a voice that surprised all of us spoke up for the first time in front of not only her family but everyone in the kingdom.

"No! I will not let you take my mate away from me!" Princess Phoebe shouts now standing protectively in front of Alejandro.

"You can shun me all you want, complain all day about how I'm the daughter you regret making to everyone in the kingdom, but you will not take away the one thing I have that will bring me happiness" She says now turning to Alejandro and kissing his Wolf's nose.

"What kind of happiness will a peasant wolf give you?! He knows nothing of royalty! Your a princess Phoebe, and I will not let some low life peasant marry or be your mate. Reject him at once and come back to my side this instant!" King Nicholas continues yelling at his daughter.

"No! I have done everything you've asked for both as a daughter and princess, all I'll ever ask for now is to leave me be with my mate" She replies as the king gestured his men to grab his daughter only to have his other daughter stand in front of her.

"I agree with my baby sister father, if you can accept me being happily married next weekend with my mate, than accept her mate to be happy with her" Princess Eleanor says now as her sister holds onto her mate in desperation.

"Your mate is of royal blood, I already know just by the scent and look of his wolf that he isn't of any royal blood and very much low ranking in his pack. I won't stand to watch any of my children be mated with-" before he could finish his eldest daughter caught him off quickly silencing him in a flash.

"Enough! I have fought for the right of women to have their freedom for so long and it will not end tonight because of the fact that my incompetent father is to selfish to look past ranks and labels to let his own flesh and blood be happy with the person the moon goddess herself chose to make her happy. So let them be or else you'll not only lose one but both of your daughters due to loving the role of being a king more than being a father" Princess Eleanor declares as her father stays silent for the first time.

It was a long silence before the king groaned and walked away with his guards by his side.

"My Bestfriend is mates with a princess!" Vivian shouts out of nowhere while running into Princess Phoebes arms as she looked surprised at my mates gesture making Princess Eleanor and myself laugh.

"Let's get this ball back on track! Alejandro sweetie, can you like? I don't know turn back, John can give you some clothes since you guys look the same size" Cindy says as I nod before gesturing Alejandro to follow me up to my room in the castle.
