Goodbye My Alpha (Taya and Griffon)

I was a little reluctant to let Harper go, but I had to. Damian was Harper's future. Damian's pack and the family they would create together. Oh, how I wished I could be part of it, to see their pups, to be their auntie and play with them.

But that wasn't in the cards for me. I had no room being selfish about Harper when I wasn't even going to be here.

So I plastered on a smile and was as happy as I could be getting ready for the ceremony.

After the makeup artist finished doing our makeup, a photographer came to the house, took a ton of photos, and recorded a video of Damian coming to pick up Harper.

After barging into the room with the wolves who were going to stand beside him at the mating ceremony, Damian excitedly carried Harper outside.

I followed behind with a smile, holding Harper's dress as best I could so it wouldn't trail on the ground behind them.
