Bride of the Cursed Alpha (Auren and Lucien)

Chapter 211

Tamara POV

The night of the wedding felt like a dream. I couldn't believe it was finally here. It was the day Matt had been waiting for, but it still seemed surreal. After he had proposed to me; I had accepted it because I didn't have it in me to resist him anymore. He had protected me and my family in ways more than one could even think of. Though after the proposal, I wanted to go back to college and continue, mom and dad were vehemently against it. They were afraid that unless every cultist was behind the bars, I shouldn't venture into the human town. Even Matt's parents were dead against the idea.

I looked at myself in the mirror. My gown was elegant-crafted with delicate silk and intricate lace. It was crafted by Marion, the woman who had designed my mom's wedding gown as well. Marion was beaming with ecstasy. She had tears in her eyes as she looked at me.

"You look so beautiful, Tamara!" she said, clasping her hands.

I saw mom coming into the room. She came up beside me, a proud smile lighting up her face. "You look stunning, darling," she said softly, her voice filled with emotion, as she looked at my reflection in the mirror.

I turned to her, trying to smile through the knot in my throat. "Mom..." I whispered and she hugged me tightly. There were tears in her eyes and I knew that she had tried her best not to cry for the entire day. She had lost me when I was a pup, and she was again going to send me away after a gap of ten

years. Her emotions were at an all-time high. And so were mine.

She pulled herself away. Her eyes softened as she placed a hand on my shoulder. "You've come so far, Tam," she said, wiping her tears. "This is the start of a new journey as the Luna of the Everflame pack. You were always meant for this, for him. That's why destiny chose to put you in his protection even when you were just a pup."

Tears welled in my eyes and I didn't fight them back. The emotions of the day, the weight of everything we had gone through to get here, were all crashing over me at once, "Mom, I'll miss you all!" And I hugged her back. from the periphery of my vision, I saw father entering the room along with Oscar and Hans. My father, Alpha Lucien, was absolutely the most handsome werewolf in the world. Just like my brother. Even at this age, he looked like a young human male in his twenties. "Daddy," I said and rushed to him. He opened his arms and embraced me.. "Tammy..." he whispered through his emotion-choked throat. "You've made me proud, little girl He kissed the crown of my head and released me. "You two are perfect for each other," he said with a smile in a warm voice. "He's a lucky guy."
