CHAPTER 35

  "Let's have a party," Derek suggested.

  "A party?" I raised my eyebrows. "A party for what?"

  "To celebrate that we're getting married. Let's invite your parents, the pack, even Stefan and Sara. Let them see that we're happy and we don't care about what they do."

  "I'm no longer part of the pack, Derek," I reminded him.

  "But they always loved you. You said it yourself. After everything Stefan did to you, I know they'll be happy that you've found someone who loves you."

  "They'll make comments. That someone is you, Stefan's brother. You know how people are. And when they find out I'm pregnant, it'll be even worse."

  "What does it matter what others say? Cheer up, Kara! We deserve a moment of distraction after all that has happened in the last few weeks. And I know you'd like to be with your people. You told me how much you missed the pack."

  "Alright," I agreed.
