My Broken, Mute Mate (SAMPLE) (PUBLISHED!!)

Chapter Thirteen:My Luna's Ceremony (EDITED)

"I do," She said with a confident smile, sending a wave gasps to go up within the crowd. "I thought she was mute," I heard a few pack members say and even the priest was a bit surprised before he straightened up and continued. "Then I now pronounce you Alpha and Luna." He smiled. "Any other remarks?"

"No-"

"I do," Ariel said before turning to the pack. "H-Hello Silver Moon Pack,"

"Hello, Luna." They all chorused.

"Wow, I don't know where to begin," she sighed. "Well, first of all, I was voluntarily mute due to some personal things that have happened to me in my past, but now I've decided to put all that behind me once and for all for this pack. I will do everything in my power to make sure that this pack stays safe and runs smoothly as it should."

The pack applauded and whistles for her. Zac jumped out of Jessica's lap and ran to Ariel and hugged her legs since he couldn't reach her shoulders. "Good job, Ari." He said smiled, causing her to laugh. "You're voice is beautiful."

"Indeed it is," I smiled as I took her hand in mine. I crashed my lips onto hers, causing a frenzy to go up in the pack, filled with cheers, claps, and whistles.

When I pulled away, she smiled. "Our first kiss as official Alpha and Luna."

"And it was amazing," I smiled as I took her and led her to our seats so that Jess and Aiden could get to their part.

"Good luck man," I said as I patted him on the back and we took our seats as the second part of the ceremony started.

Ariel's POV

We watched as Jess and Aiden had their ceremony, and let me just say, Jess looked amazing. She was wearing a long gray dress. Her hair was in a ponytail and she was wearing gray slipper type shoes.

After they did the whole "I do" thing, they were applauded then they took their seats next to us.

"Congrats!" I said to Jess as I hugged her.

"Congrats to me? Congrats to you! Your voice is beautiful! Why did you keep it hidden so long?"

"Um...."

"Too personal! Sorry." She said, blushing a bit.

"It's okay," I said before I was swarmed by a ton of pack members congratulating me and telling me how cute Shane and I are together.

I met virtually every pack member, but I didn't see Greg anywhere. It's not like I expected him to come up and give me a huge hug or anything, but I still wondered where he was...

"There's my Luna!" A voice said before picking me up bridal style and spinning me around.

"Shane!" I laughed as I used one hand to hold my dress down. "My dress!"

"Oh yeah." He said as he slowly stopped. "I guess I forgot."

He gently set me down and took my hand into his and kissed the back. "You're so beautiful." He whispered. "So beautiful."

I felt my cheeks heat up as butterflies erupted within my stomach from his compliment.

"Your voice," he whispered. "Your personality. Your everything..." He said as he planted his hands on my hips. "Just absolutely perfect."

I noticed a few pack members gather around and watch us. "Uh Shane, people are watching," I whispered.

"I don't care," he said. "I'm not ashamed to show them my love for you." He whispered in my ear sending chills throughout my body. I looked into his eyes and saw that they had become a shade darker and he had a small smirk. He ran his hand up my arm, leaving goosebumps in its wake.

Now everyone was gathered around us. Even Zac.

"Shane I-"

Crash!

Every head snapped in the direction that the noise came from: the Pack House and only one name popped into my mind- Greg.

"Ariel what was-" before Shane could finish, I was off in the direction of the pack house with Shane frantically yelling my name while he followed me.

"Ariel what are you-"

"I'm Luna now, so I need to figure out what's wrong with Greg," I quickly said. I was done waiting for him to come around. I was Luna now and Greg was my pack member and it was my duty to make sure that he's okay before he hurts someone or himself.

Just then, a pained howl ripped through the air, causing my legs to move faster. My wolf felt like each pack member was her pup and she wanted to protect her young, so that's what I was going to do.

I burst through the door and was introduced by a destroyed house. I felt my heartbeat quicken as I slowly walked in, careful not to step on the broken glass that was all over the floor.

"Greg?" I called out as I grabbed Shane's hand for comfort. "Greg, are you okay?"

I heard a loud crash come from the kitchen. I ran into the kitchen and saw Greg throwing dishes against the wall before he started punching holes in it.

"Greg stop it!" I yelled, causing his attention to snap to me. My breath caught in my throat when I saw it. His eyes were a dull gray and he had red-pink veins webbing from his eyes. I'd never seen anything like it and it straight out scared the living crap out of me.

"You," he growled as he slowly started stalking towards me.

"Greg," Shane said as he took a step in front of me, blocking me from him.

"YOU!" He yelled as he pushed Shane out of the way, causing him to fly through the air and slam into the wall causing him to slip into unconsciousness.

"Shane!" I yelled before Greg tackled me down.

"It should've been us!"he growled as he takes his now extended claws into my cheek. "Me and her!"

"Get off me!" I yelled as I kicked him in the stomach, causing him to sail through the air and hit the wall. I quickly got up and grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up until his feet couldn't touch the ground.

"What is wrong with you?" I growled. He started clawing at my hands, causing them to bleed, but I didn't waver. "I'm going to ask you one more time, what is wrong with you?!"

That's when words came out of his mouth that I never would've imagined.
