Chapter 737 Tanya's Luna ceremony (4)

Tatiana's wedding dress was a masterpiece that came from the studio of the "Dama T". It was a white satin A-line strapless gown with a sweetheart neckline and a snug bodice that shimmered with golden embroidery. The skirt was flowy, and it ended with an inch-wide royal-blue rim that was touching the ground.

Tatiana's chest swelled with pride when she heard comments about the back of her dress. The royal blue fabric followed her spine before spreading along the skirt to meet the rim at the bottom, and the golden embroidery gave it a dose of luxurious sparkle and shine.

The gown was elegant, body-flattering, and not over the top, precisely what "Dama T" stood for. Tatiana was confident that after this fashionable display, she will have a lot of custom orders.

Tatiana was about halfway through their guests when her eyes met Maddox's, and the world faded. His intense gaze was making her stomach tighten, and she could feel his desire to get closer to her, close enough to touch.

Tatiana couldn't stop staring at Maddox, who stood there like a God of sex, and she wondered if he looked so good in the suit or if his image was enhanced by her familiarity with his naked body, or because she knew very well what he could do with his body. Every inch of him was made for carnal pleasures... for her.

She exhaled a long breath, hoping that she won't get aroused more because her parents were right there!

Tatiana already had a ceremony where she became the Luna of the Blue River pack, and this was just for show and to entertain their friends, family, and other guests, but somehow… it felt special as well. Everything about her coffee-infused hunkalicious mate was special.

Tatiana climbed the podium with her parents flanking her, and her father put her hand into Maddox's with, "Take care of my angel, Alpha Maddox."

"I will," Maddox responded without missing a beat. "What's mine is Tanya's, and I will treat her as my equal."

Tatiana's father nodded at Maddox, kissed each of Tatiana's cheeks, and then he took a step back.

"Make her happy," Tatiana's mother said while letting go of Tatiana's hand so that Maddox could hold it.

"I will do my best, Mrs. Wilkow.", Maddox responded in a rare show of respect.

The older woman was pleased to see an Alpha lowering himself to treat them as equals.

The Wilkow parents were worried when they heard that Kalina and Tatiana were mated to Alphas, but little by little, their prejudices were chipping away.

"Mom," she corrected him. "From today, it's mom."

Maddox smiled a little. Behind that firm facade was a woman who was accepting him as part of their family. He didn't really care about being accepted by this woman, but she was Tatiana's mother, and he knew that it meant a lot to Tatiana, which made it important to him as well. He would do anything to put a smile on Tatiana's face.

"Mom.", Maddox said, and he could feel the joy pouring into him from Tatiana.

With Tatiana's parents stepping down to join the audience, Maddox was able to focus on his mate.

'You are beautiful,' Maddox told Tatiana through their mind-link.

'And you are handsome,' she returned the compliment.

He smirked. 'The time you spent on that dress was worth it.'

Tatiana loved when he praised her work.

At first, Tatiana thought of Maddox as a handsome horny airhead, but as she got to know him and the work he does, she realized that he was a capable fighter, a fearless leader, a sharp businessman, and a person who takes care of his pack members and many others who were discarded by society as weak and unwanted. Maddox believed everyone deserved a second chance, and Tatiana admired him for it.

When she compared her fashion business with all the things Maddox was doing, her achievements seemed insignificant, and she felt lucky that such an impressive guy would want her as his mate.

Besides being amazing in every way, Maddox treated her with care and thought about her needs. He visited her office in Europe to see where she worked, and then he secured her a fantastic new business space that was much more compared to what she had before. He helped her transfer the company and her existing employees to the US, and advised her how to handle the move of the ones who were coming, as well as severance packages for those who didn't want to leave Europe.

Since accepting Maddox as her mate, Tatiana realized that she was not alone; her mate was a capable person she could rely on, knowledgeable about the business world, and full of valuable guidance even though he had never worked in fashion.

Maddox encouraged her to continue pursuing her interests, and the only thing he asked for was that they stay together. How could she stick to one thing when Maddox handled many? The least she could do was to be his Luna and help him manage their pack.

Tatiana had no idea how to be a Luna, but she was confident that with Maddox's support, she will do just fine.

'I'm glad you approve,' Tatiana said to Maddox through their mind-link. 'I made this dress while thinking of you.'

It was white because it was a wedding dress, the royal-blue details were because blue color represented the Blue River pack, and the golden embroidery symbolized their status as Alpha and Luna. The dress was not only elegant and well-fitting but full of meaning as well.

'Too bad it will end up in tatters when this ceremony is over. I will fuck you thoroughly until you don't feel sorry for the dress.'

Tatiana felt her insides throbbing. Oh, God! She was getting aroused, right there!

'Is that a promise, Alpha Maddox?'

Maddox gave her a lopsided smile, and she pressed her legs together. It was a promise, one she knew he could fulfill.

The Shaman cleared his throat to get everyone's attention, and then he started chanting in an obscure language no one could understand.

The sun flashed in the last goodbye, and the darkness fell. A moment later, the fairy lights wrapped around the streamers turned on automatically, giving it another splash of magical atmosphere, and guests did more 'Ohs' and 'Ahs' again.

Tatiana could hear Mario sniffling from the front row of the audience. The photosensitive fairy lights were his idea, and she wondered if Mario was crying because everything turned out perfect or because she was getting married. He wouldn't cry because Maddox was taken, right? RIGHT?

Subconsciously, Tatiana scooted closer to Maddox, who quickly put his arm around her waist as they faced the Shaman.

Damon was looking around and taking mental notes while observing Talia's reactions. She loved the fairy lights. He will definitely add those to her Luna ceremony, but there will be more of them. Talia's Luna ceremony needed to be better and bigger than any other!

He wanted to make her feel special because she was special. The best. Damon decided to invite everyone. Their friends will share their joy, and their enemies will drown in sorrow and jealousy when they realize that the two most powerful Alphas in their generation were fated mates, and there was absolutely nothing they could do about it.
