Elena's POV
Here I was again, standing at the bottom of the intimidatingly tall flight of stairs at the front of the great hall to the Alpha house. The morning rays had me shielding my eyes with my hand as a young man helped Alpha Alec take my bags out of the trunk of the SUV. As I watch them remove the luggage, I couldn't help but take in the sight of the man who had just hours ago, asked me to be his future Luna and mate. And after I had accepted, he proceeded to ask my parents if he could stay the night at our home.
My world tilted on its axis as my parents and best friends hugged and congratulated me on the big step I was about to take in my life. And they did allow him to stay the night in the guest bedroom, while Brandon excused himself for the night, leaving Freya to help me and my mom pack my stuff for the journey the next day.
