Jake's POV

I couldn't believe it. I never thought all the things that had been hammered into my head since i was little would help me. All this work would pay off. I sat on the sofa, wondering whether to tell the truth, or to have a little fun while i could. Tough Choice. I heard the door go and i pretended to be looking at my hands, as it was the only thing i could think of. I was nervous. Through the glass door i saw a purple dress, and then in came Luna, as ravenous as ever. I thought i would melt into the sofa. She smiled and gave me a warning look, before sitting down on the sofa next to me. I placed my arm round her shoulder. She was shivering. I quickly stood up and gave her my leather jacket, making sure it would make her warmer. She smiled, showing how grateful she was. I loved that about her. 

"So. Luna. You look lovely tonight" I said trying to be cool, even to myself i sounded like a idiot.

" Thanks. You too. So whats this ritual everyone told me you knew?" She pushed, trying to salvage as much information as she could possibly get. I sat sit only shaking my head and she grinned.

"Silent treatment huh?" She laughed and started tickling me. I could help but laugh. I'm glad no one else was here. I laughed at myself and she stopped to look at me. Right it was time to start. I had to get the ritual started. Its the most important time of our lives.

"Luna? Will You kiss me?" I asked. Now i seem really soft. Great. She seemed a bit taken by surprise but that was the point. She nodded now quite shy. I felt sorry for her. The female Alphas had to remain pure, this included kissing. I was going to be her first and last kiss. I held her arm to reassure her. She relaxed and i moved into a kiss. My head fit straight into hers. I pulled her closer, the kiss had to be long and passionate, my father had said. It started off slowly, building up into a stronger more passionate kiss. she twirled my hair through her fingers, i pulled into me more. I didn't want to stop, but we didn't have time. Maybe after. I pulled back and grinned at her. She was trying to decide if that was part of the ritual. In actual fact, i just wanted to kiss her anyway.

" Now we shall start." i announced as her dissapointed face made my blush. I pulled her hand to my mouth, and slowly drew some blood from under it. She copied. I felt warm inside. but i pressed on. 

"We must shift into wolves Luna" I shifted and she copied. I circled her, sizing her up. I brushed against her fur, she tensed but the ritual was about trust and she relaxed with effort. I licked her face and jumped on her tail, like a wolf pup would do. The plan was to make her angry so she would fight for dominance. I bit her tail, and that made her mad. She jumped round and snarled at me, and i snarled back. She pounced on me and i turned her over and pinned her down. She pretended to calm down, then caught me by surprise and kicked me off her. I snapped at her legs and she backed away, afraid, beaten. I shifted and went to hug her. I knew she understood why we had to do that. She forgave me.

" Next is to trust that my  wolfy instincts wont go getting me any other mates" i laughed. She looked at me, puzzled by what was going to happen. " Luna, im not sure your going to like this, but you have to sleep a night next to me." i explained " I promise i won't try anything on you. Not yet. This ritual's purpose is trust, and you have to show me yours, and in return, i must trust that you will not leave."

" Alright. But i won't be comfortable with it yet. I've only known you for two days. Don't try anything stupid or you will lose your hand." She warned. I wasn't going to take the chances. We walked upstairs into the small bedroom and laid on the double bed. I stayed outside while Luna took her dress off,and then hugged her. Her sleepwear was a cream, plain dress, with ribbons on the sleeves. She sat on the bed, brushing her hair slowly. i got into the bed, facing forward and looking at the patterns on the ceiling. She got into bed and laid beside me. I pulled her closer, to keep her warm. I gave her a light kiss on the lips and whispered "Good night my love" in her ear, then fell asleep hugging her closely. I felt her breath against my cheek as she slept, and her soothing breath made my soul float away, into dreams, excited about what tomorrow bring for our new budding relationship.
