[SICARIO]

[Six Months Later]

"You must really be desperate if you're willing to marry a low-class girl from the Clarkson pack, of all the packs in the goddamn realm. I wonder who your advisor was, and what they were on when they were telling you to go for her.

"You know you don't strike me as the man who would go on his knees to propose to a woman, but damn, you really are something, Jer," Elodie said as he looked at Jeremy who was dressed and ready to meet the apparent girl of his dreams.

That in itself made Elodie's blood boil for some reason. She had no qualms with the woman Jer had picked but the fact that Jer was getting married, just didn't make any sense to her.

Maybe she was jealous, maybe she was just unsettled, maybe she had her reasons. But then again, what could be her reasons when she had blatantly rejected Jer and his endless proposals to her over the past year?

She really had no reason to complain, because if it was about the position of the Luna, she had had it in her hands, and had instead chosen to let go. That was something that she couldn't even blame Jer for. It was all on her, and her alone.

"Jeez woman, you should be happy for me. Weren't you the one who told me not to mope around and find someone to fill the blank space Awuor left? Now that I'm filling it, you are cranky. Goodness.

"If you want me to marry you, just say the word, and I will drop her this instant," Jer said with a laugh even though he knew he couldn't.

At this point in time, the envoy from the Clarkson pack was on its way with his new bride, a beautiful woman that had gotten the realm talking.

Of course, all the alphas of the realm were invited to the wedding of the century, a wedding that would cleanse Sicario of the sins that Awuor had committed over the years. But was that all there was to this wedding?

Was it simply about reputation for Jeremy, or was it about something else?

"Fuck off. Go get married to a woman you have only met thrice. Are you marrying her because of her beauty, or to boost her dumb pack?

"You do realise that their park is the weakest group of shits in the is realm?" Elodie said, her anger making a show again and honestly, Jer didn't understand her.

She had been the one pushing him to get over Hawi and now that he seemed to be getting over Hawi, she was mad for some reason. Of course, Jer didn't even think that it was because of Hawi, no.

For him, his former mate was long dead and no one had seen her even if she were alive. Awuor was a part of his past life and he was going to go through with his wedding this time. It didn't matter what happened, or who said what he was going to go through with it.

"Probably not. We can ask about that later. The wedding guests here are Alphas of different packs. It's quite funny how they sometimes don't see each other eye to eye but they must attend every Alpha's wedding.

The moon goddess really got weird rules," Dom said as they watched the group of Alphas that had arrived.

Even Rukiya Greyson was here.

The fact that the werewolf law demanded that all Alpha's were to attend every Alpha's wedding was insane but at least it gave the leaders a chance to get to know each other and find a commons ground.

Sometimes the common ground never worked, but then as long as they fulfilled their duty to the moon goddess, they would be safe, right?

"Why is she walking so slow, does she know we've been waiting for her, for long?" Elodie whined and Dom let our a light chuckle.

"You mean the past twenty minutes you've been standing here ready to bite Jer's ears off?"

"You're no fun. Anyway let's focus on the wedding of the day, hopefully I can get to eat at the end of this shit show," Elodie said, just as the procession began. She didn't understand the fuss about weddings, especially since Awuor never had a wedding.

She had just registered their bond and that was it for them.

"Fine whatever," Elodie said before muting out the wedding procession.

Instead she stood there, watching as the new bride was accompanied by her peasant parents. It was a stupid thing in Elodie's eyes, and she was pissed because the woman that her best fired had been replaced with didn't even look that pretty.

Compared to Awuor, the woman was average and she looked so fragile. Oh but a part of Elodie already knew she was never going to get along with the woman. She just couldn't find it in her heart to replace Awuor.

Sure, she was always ready to tolerate any Awuor slander but she always made it a point to remember the names of each and everyone who tried to slander her best friend and when no one was watching, she'd thrash them black an blue.

Of course, when she beat them up, she never said that it was because of Hawi, no. She always said that it was because they didn't do their jobs well... After she intentionally screwed them over.

Oh, but Elodie had turned into a conniving woman out for blood and revenge for her best friend . And as she watched the new Luna make it to where they were standing with Jer, Elodie promised to use the new Luna to find out what had happened that day with Awuor.

"Hello Malika, you look beautiful today... Shall we?" Jer said to his new bride and Elodie almost rolled her eyes at the new couple, as they turned to the altar.

'Who the fuck even calls their child Malika... Malika Clarkson, what a lame name,' Elodie whined to herself.
