Benzy entered the room to assist. “The flowers are en route; however, the bouquet Bella will be carrying is not yet arranged. The florist indicated that she would assemble them tomorrow, just prior to delivery, to maintain their freshness.” I instructed her to prepare them now; we will address any issues tomorrow if they wither.
Luke expressed scepticism, stating, “I doubt they will wither overnight.” It will probably remain in cold storage until that time.
He dedicated the remainder of the afternoon and evening to arranging the ballroom, with his mother and Vera present to assist with the delivered flowers. All items previously located outdoors are now being relocated indoors.
Bella, Dani, Nina, Margaret, Nora, Maya, and Elena all participated in arranging the tables.
Elena engaged her daughters, asserting, “Many hands make light work, and obstacles occur even in the most meticulously organised plans.” She now recognised the volume of flowers acquired for packing events and discerned that collaborating with him would be advantageous for her.
They paused for meals and thereafter resumed work, taking until nearly 11 PM to arrange everything according to his and his mother’s preferences. He observed Bella gazing at him several times. A smile graced her visage. She appreciated it when he engaged actively and undertook tasks himself, rather than relying on others for assistance. This was her day, and her perspective was considered in all matters. She had laughed at the prospect of witnessing and hearing about the integrated stairs herself.
Informed him that he had been concerned unnecessarily.
He escorted her to the Luna Suite and leaned against the door frame; she would be spending the night there with Vera, Nina, and Dani. He would be merely one room away in their suite with the triplets, alone for the night. They had vowed to exhibit exemplary conduct in his presence.
He harboured reservations as the three smiled charmingly at him, “Simply provide them with ice cream upon request.” Bella laughed at him. “Ice cream resolves all their issues.” I placed a new tub of Hokey Pokey in the freezer for you.
“I shall miss you,” he sighed, pulling her closer as he observed the door ajar.
Nina laughed, saying, “Now, now, you can wait one night,” as she extricated Bella from his embrace and directed her into the Luna suite. Greeted him with a smile and dismissed him with a wave. She had learnt to appreciate him, as had Dani ultimately. Her wedding was still scheduled for three months later when the weather became warmer.
Nina and Grampa Hill have some quite extravagant opinions regarding it. They would obtain their desires. Matt, having invoked the father of the bride prerogative, declared his intention to finance the wedding, while the father of the groom would be responsible for the alcohol expenses.
There has been some negotiation between Matt and his father, but they are resolving the matter. The wedding was scheduled to take place in Los Angeles. On the Hill estate
He could only smile at Nina, as she resembled their mother in her behaviour. I established a strong rapport with Vera, which was advantageous, as there appeared to be no maternal rivalry there. Both individuals cherished her, and he realised that Vera was content that Bella had someone to rely on and support her. Vera genuinely valued that.
He returned to his apartment to discover all three children gazing at him. He grinned and, before they could respond, proposed, “How about ice cream?”
Both girls squealed as they dashed to the kitchen. Karis smiled up at him and followed his sisters. “I’m learning,” he remarked to his son, who merely grinned.
Bella saw the moon set just after 6 PM and bit her lip, aware of Luke’s suspicions regarding Lanky. She turned to see Margaret, who was anxiously pacing in the Luna Suite. Benzy had conveyed their collective sentiments to her; she gazed at him momentarily before beseeching the Goddess to restore joy and happiness to her elder brother.
Both were aware that Lanky was with Luke and his troop, preparing for the ritual, which was scheduled to commence at 8 PM tonight. They had deliberated and postponed it by two hours from the moon’s setting. In this manner, any freshly turned 18-year-old wolves might detect and locate their Mates if the goddess deemed it appropriate to unite them.
If Maya were Lanky’s mate, he would recognise her, be able to detect her scent, presumably pursue her, and formally propose a date. In accordance with tradition, she had heard he was involved with the girl, and Bella merely hoped it was not merely a tactic to distance Maya from Macky. From her observations, it appeared that neither Nora nor Elena were aware that Maya was involved with someone, a fact that was concealed from both of them.
