Tattooed Luna novel (Kristen and Alec) novel Chapter 426

As she got closer, I started to realize there were tears in my eyes that I quickly tried to push away. It was fine for Penny to see that side of me but not all the other alphas and lunas that were in attendance tonight.

Penny handed off her flowers as I met her before the stage. Holding out my hand, I smiled at her. “You look so beautiful.” I whispered as we walked up to the front. Alpha Thomas was waiting patiently for us as we approached.

“Welcome!” He yelled out. “We have come to celebrate the union of Alpha Colt and Luna Penny. Cheers erupted, making Penny blush. Alpha Thomas held up his hand, quieting everyone. “They have decided to do things a little differently, and start with the vows. Alpha Colt, please go first.”

“Penny, from the moment our eyes met and you became mine… I’ve felt like the luckiest man alive. Our lives have been anything but peaceful but you have adapted. More than once, you have risen above for not only my sake but for our packs. Your heart is massive as it makes it’s impact on the future generation, ensuring our future. More than once, you have stood up to me and helped me see things in a different light. The encouragement and support I have received from you has made me a better alpha and a better man. I know that will continue over to being the best dad I could be. I couldn’t imagine going through all this without you beside me. You have given me the support and push that I needed to be able to do half the stuff I have done recently. Coming home to your smiling face gives me more satisfaction than anything else. With you beside me, I am unstoppable. We are a team… behind the desk and off. I love you.”

Penny had tears running down her face as I spoke. I felt nothing but love coming from her and I tried to push all my love back at her. “Luna Penny, please take your turn.”

After a moment, she started. “Growing up, we were not in the same circle but yet I was always around you. I watched you grow up, going through different challenges and I watched you learn from each one of them.” She was wearing the bracelet I made for her. My eyes went to it and nodded in understanding. “I admired your strength. I’ve always been someone that has been happy to be hiding behind someone. Never needing the recognition or anything but just seeing the smiles on people’s faces was enough for me. Since becoming your mate, I had to learn to be in the spotlight. There was a time I doubted my ability but someone wise told me to not compare myself to anyone. I could chose what my luna legacy was about. Choosing what was dear to my heart was important and you did nothing but encourage and push me to achieve my dreams. I have been able to make these changes because of the strength I learned from you. Everyday, I watch you lead our pack. I see the respect in their eyes and how much they look up to you. You inspire me to continue to grow and be the best luna I can be… and hopefully be the best mother I can be. With you beside me, I know I can handle anything that life throws at us. I love you.”

I couldn’t help but put my hand on her belly. My babies were moving around, kicking at me. It was like they responded to my touch. Anywhere my hand went, they went.

“Please, repeat after me. I, Alpha Colt of the Blue Fang Pack, accept you Alpha Penny of the Midnight River pack as my mate and my luna.”

I forget she has the title of Alpha. Even though she prefers to go by Luna, Alpha is still technically her title. “I, Alpha Colt of the Blue Fang Pack, accept Alpha Penny of the Midnight River Pack as my mate and my luna.”
