I Am The Luna

Chapter 0545

ATTICUS

"Finally," Sebastian says from behind me as Patrick helps me into my jacket. I smirk as I fix it, looking at my reflection. I'm wearing a sage grey suit with a white shirt that I've left open without a tie as she will mark me tonight, and I don't want to make it harder for her to access.

"Good things come to those who wait." I smile to myself, thinking I'm lucky to have Adriana. I haven't seen her all day, and that is partially due to my sister's wanting to keep Adriana from me until tonight.

It's incredible and also intense to experience how restless I feel, and how strong the need be to be near her is. Yet at the same time, it's terrifyingly beautiful how deeply I desire her.

"Well, you aren't getting any fucking younger, so it's good that you finally found her or I'd have thought you'd stay single for your entire life," Sebastian remarks.

I smirk, "You'd have liked that."

"Oh yeah, it meant no mini Payne in the asses walking around," he remarks, making me scoff, but I look in the mirror. Children... I didn't even consider it, but as an alpha, yeah, we'd need to continue the line at some point.

"All in good time. I plan to enjoy the time with my mate for a while before popping kids like you and Zaia."

Zade now walks in. He's in a black formal shirt and pants, but unlike Sebastian, he's not wearing a tie or jacket. "Alright, how long does it take one man to get ready?" he asks, looking at me.

I glance at him, I may never be able to ever thank him fully, but he protected Adriana when I couldn't. If he didn't arrive back then it could have been worse, I'm fully aware of that.

He cocks a brow when he sees me simply watching silently. But before either of us can speak, Sebastian's phone rings.

"I'll see you outside," he says, giving us both a nod and leaving the room.
