CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE

MAX

It's amazing what a difference a few days can make. A week ago, I didn't even know Victoria. Two days ago, I thought we were going to lose everything and everyone we loved in a fire.

But we didn't.

And now, her I am, standing at a celebration with my true mate, getting ready to announce my engagement-- getting ready to share the news of my one true love with my pack. My family.

And I have never been happier.

"Are you ready?" I ask Victoria.

"Yes," she says.

    I can't help but love the way she looks in her strapless pink dress.    She's the most beautiful girl in the world, and she's going to be my wife.    I can't believe this is really happening.    But it is.

I pull her in for a kiss, and her lips are soft and sweet.    I wrap my arms around her and hold her close.
