Following dinner, the dance segment of the evening commenced; however, we departed early to ensure Alyssa was in bed by 8:30. It is unusual for a Luna and Alpha to depart from their ceremonial gathering prematurely; however, we left Alyssa last night and preferred that no one observe her this evening. We were both indeed fatigued, as the past few days have been tumultuous, and we had insufficient rest last night.
I awaken to find the clock indicating 6:30 AM. Celine and I retired to bed at 9:30 PM last night. I feel entirely rejuvenated. I encircle her waist with my arm and draw her nearer. “Mmm… Good morning,” she murmurs softly. “Good morning, Luna Foster,” she smiles, and I kiss her neck. She rotates to her opposite side, positioning herself to face me. She nestles against my neck, encircling me with an arm and a leg, holding me tightly.
“It is still early,” I remind her. “Alyssa is unlikely to awaken for at least another hour,” I remark with a smile.
“Should we rouse her early?” “We have not had the opportunity to spend much time with her recently,” she enquires. I knit my brows, prompting her to laugh. She shifts slightly and removes the t-shirt she is wearing, revealing that she is not clad beneath it.
“What are you awaiting? Remove these, Alpha,” she states while pulling at my boxer briefs.

This morning, we had an hour of solitude before Alyssa awoke, fortunately. I am already yearning for her, despite having seen her merely an hour ago. I did not experience this journey as a teenager, but with Celine, I desire her constantly. Celine and I are currently preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Her friends and Brandon are visiting for breakfast this morning, prior to their departure home.
“Darling, Brandon just messaged me enquiring if he could bring a guest to breakfast,” she states, furrowing her brows.
“Do you believe he discovered his mate?”“She inquires.”
“I am sceptical; we would have discovered it prior to our departure, would we not?”I enquire.
I believe I did not see him after dinner. Did you do so?”
“I believe I did not.” Perhaps he did?“I contemplate.”
The table is fully prepared. We sliced a substantial quantity of fruit. I am currently preparing bacon and sausages while she operates the waffle iron and cooks pancakes. Upon everyone’s arrival, we will be concluding our cooking preparations. Brandon and his enigmatic companion are the final arrivals, prompting Celine to eagerly approach the door, which I follow out of curiosity.
Upon the door’s opening, we observe Brandon with his arm resting over her shoulder, smiling more than I have ever witnessed.
“Is Brit your friend?”Celine enquires with enthusiasm. Brandon nods and gazes at Brit with admiration, and she reciprocates the gesture.
Celine is exclaiming with joy. “I am elated that you have finally located her,” she begins to weep and embraces both of them.
“Thank you, Celine, I feel the same,” Brandon replies. They convened immediately following dinner. All individuals appreciate breakfast, and we persuade them to remain until after dinner this evening to participate in a pool party with everyone.
Celine’s Perspective
The pool party is enjoyable, and it is delightful to socialise with everyone. Serena intends to relocate here next weekend. Malik will accompany her to Lunar Howl Moon tonight, after which they will pack her house and return. Serena is exceedingly joyful and elated regarding her partner, and I am genuinely pleased for her.
She waited an extended period and was astonished to discover her mate present. Brandon and Brit exhibit remarkable charm as a couple. Elaine is currently the sole individual remaining who is single, and I genuinely feel sympathy for her. She is pleased for her friends, yet I am aware of her profound desire to discover her partner as well. I will confer privately with Gavin regarding this matter to avoid placing him in an uncomfortable position; perhaps Gavin can delegate the travel responsibilities initially assigned to Brandon to Elaine.
We collectively enjoyed a delightful afternoon.
Brandon’s Perspective
I open my eyes and glance to my right, where I see my beautiful partner, Brit. Her crimson, curly hair is impeccably dishevelled upon the pillows. She is exceptionally beautiful. She has shared my suite for the past two nights. I already adore her, yet I am uncertain about our next steps. She will not return to Lunar Howl Moon with me. I believed she had consented.
It is possible that I misheard her on Friday, or perhaps I made an incorrect assumption, but she informed me last night that she is unable to attend Lunar Howl Moon with me. I am uncertain about my course of action. She desires my company, yet she cohabitates with and attends to her grandmother’s needs. Brit’s grandmother has been her primary carer throughout her life, and Brit asserts that she cannot abandon her at this time. She is experiencing difficulties. I proposed to bring her grandmother to Lunar Howl Moon as well, but Brit asserted that it would be unwise to remove her from the only place she has ever considered home.
