"Hi, yes you aren't dreaming, it's the chubby Kelly," I say inwardly as I see the unhappy face expression of Jason who is disheartened. 

The guests laugh at us. They call our couple all sort of names. "The prince charming and the pancakes' eater Kelly" is one I can sadly remember."

"I, Jason Bentley of the South pack, reject you Kelly Thompson as my mate and the Luna Queen," he declared fiercely.

***
Kelly Thompson, an eighteen-year-old curvaceous and wolfless she-wolf, has been quietly admiring Jason Bentley, the heir apparent to the throne of the dominant South pack, for a number of years.

Unfortunately for Kelly, she doesn't get the same attention in return from Alpha heir Jason, as the handsome daughter of his old father's Gammas, Betty Nord, is already the love of the pack's future Alpha. But, the plump Kelly has an advantage over the skinny Betty because of a strong vow made by Jason's father, the Alpha King Don Bentley, that his son will marry the daughter of his Betas who gave their lives two years ago in a fight against the North pack's fiercest adversaries in order to preserve the life of the Alpha heir.

But clearly, nothing goes as smoothly as Kelly imagines.

The Rejected Curvy Luna Queen

The following morning, I called for a council meeting to discuss our strategy moving forward. "We need to be ready for anything," I said, looking around at the faces of my fellow leaders. "We must fortify our defenses and ensure our scouts are vigilant. We can't underestimate the Black Faes." 


Jason nodded, his expression serious. "I suggest we increase our patrols along the borders. If we can spot any movement early, we'll have the upper hand." 


Isolde added, "And we should continue to train our warriors in both combat and strategy. We need to be adaptable in the face of any situation." 


As we finalized our plans, I felt a renewed sense of purpose wash over me. We were preparing for the storm that I sensed was approaching, and I knew that our unity would be our greatest asset.
