Amie and I spent an hour walking around. Just like the other day, it was a lot of fun. The best part was meeting all the

people we had talked to before and seeing their reaction to our mating. Not many looked surprised. We got a lot of

congratulations and I would see envy in the eyes of some of the men. After a while, we looped back and found the others

setting up for the picnic lunch. All the packs sat on blankets or on the grass and ate while waiting for the big score board

to reveal the scores, and more importantly, the ranks for this year. We helped spread blankets on the ground and unpack

all the food. I sat down and pulled Amie with me. I made sure she could lean back on me as everyone made sure she had

plenty to eat. Sam sat down on the other side of her. She looked at him, he smiled at her.

“Why are you sitting there?” she asked him.

“Why wouldn’t I?” he asked.

“Let me rephrase. Why are you sitting so close to me that you are almost in my lap?” Amie asked.

“Well, as your bodyguard, it seemed like a good idea to keep close to you,” he told her, still smiling.

“My what?”

“Your bodyguard. You are the Luna. As Gamma, it is one of my most sacred duties to protect you.” Amie looked at me

with horror.

“But it’s only while we are here. Right? I mean when we are on our pack land there is no need for a bodyguard. Right?”

she asked us.

“I don’t know, Luna. It can be dangerous back at home as well,” Sam said. I was almost positive he was just pulling her

leg.

‘I don’t know about this Luna business, Finn. Maybe I can keep being Beta and Jake can be Luna. He would probably

benefit more from Sam’s protection anyway,’ Amie mindlinked me. I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes.

‘No, my little mate. You are the only one I will ever call my Luna,’ I told her and kissed her.

“Fine, fine,” she grumbled. “But if you take this too far, Sam, I will be talking to Medow.” It seemed to sober Sam up, and
