Mated to the Alpha Twins

Read Mated to the Alpha Twins [by Jane Doe] Chapter 123 – One Year Later I glanced down at the old article I had saved, snickering at my name in such a bold font. I wasn’t sure I’d ever get used to it, having every werewolf in the world know my name.

A photo of the twin’s and I sat below the headline, my odd colored eyes bright and vibrant. I was glowing with happiness as I stood between the twins, like a light had been switched on deep within. Kade stood behind me, his arms wound around my waist as I grinned and stared into Alec’s eyes. None of us were expecting a hidden reporter to snap the photograph. Even after an entire year, my love for my mates hadn’t dimmed. If anything, it had grown stronger. It was my favorite picture of the three of us.

The reporters had a field day when the twin’s and I were finally married.

The ceremony was mostly for show, an excuse to throw an extravagant party that would lighten spirits and spread some happiness. The public were invited, along with various Alpha’s and Luna’s from around the country. The legality of it all was questionable considering I couldn’t technically marry two men, but many mates chose not to marry at all.

Even though it had been a calculated move, I didn’t have to fake my joy that day.

Carrie had planned the wedding for months, but it was Zayne who provided a venue. This wasn’t a private event meant for friends and family, but something we wanted to include the world in.

The field was barren when we arrived, covered in potholes and patchy grass. It was used as a concert venue, where stages and booths would be erected. Trash littered the field, ranging from harmless beer cans to used condoms and cigarette packs. The grass was used to being trampled by excited feet, but it wasn’t aesthetically pleasing for a wedding.

Carrie, with full access to our funds, transformed the venue in a matter of a month. I had asked countless times how she managed to get everything completed so quickly, but her response was always the same. A cheeky grin and the mention of a few people owing her some favors.

Tori claimed the position of Maid of Honor before I had the chance to speak and was rather passionate about the wedding planning. It put her in the presence of Zayne, who had retreated to his own pack shortly after my Luna ceremony, but Tori still enjoyed putting him in his place. I was sure she also enjoyed the way his eyes trailed her every move when her back was turned, but I kept my mouth shut while they bickered with one another.

I hadn’t asked what was happening between the two of them. I felt like my constant intrusion on her emotions was information enough. Their bond was growing stronger, but the two continued to butt heads. Zayne was dealing with the loss of his father, a man he both hated and wanted to please. There were demons in his eyes that wanted to d***n him, but Tori refused to let him sink.

The wedding had taken my breath away, along with the crowd that had showed up.

The parking lot was completely packed, a sea of vehicles that all looked identical in the darkness. In between those cars were guests, donned in delicate dresses and suits, walking towards the gates that would lead them to the guard station. It was a precaution that the guests and their bags were searched before the wedding.

Light posts covered in ivy lined the way, like a trail of starlight and nature. As you reached the entrance to the party, a domed lattice formed overhead with small fairy lights interwoven through the wooden beams. Vines with dainty white flowers trickled down, bringing the gentle scent of something sweet.

After the ceremony had finished and the party truly began, I spent the rest of the night with the twins by my side. Their individual scents made me dizzier than the wine I had consumed, making my heart light and cheeks ache from smiling so much.

I managed to steal Tori away from a couple of lusty guys vying for her attention and tugged her onto the dance floor.

“What was that about?” She chuckled, grabbing my hand as she twirled onto the dance floor.

“All three of them were wanting in that dress of yours.” I snickered, relaxing as the thundering beat of the music flooded my ears. Tori’s distaste was instant, but I hadn’t yet finished. I glanced across the room, meeting with a pair of silver eyes that held barely contained rage. “And a certain Alpha seems a bit enraged by the entire thing. Maybe you should talk with him.”
