Chapter 729 Malia strikes again! (L&J)

　　The packhouse was buzzing with activity which extended to nearby houses where guests were staying.

　　White and golden streamers created elegant arcs between balloons, and everything was luxurious.

　　The archway made out of white roses was set on a podium in the garden, ready for the main ceremony that was scheduled at sunset. The ceremony will resemble a wedding, and Tatiana and Maddox mentioned to their human guests that they are worshiping the Moon and Nature; the couple hoped that will be enough to explain the Shaman and strange chants which will include words such as Alpha and Luna and blessings of the Moon Goddess.

　　After the ceremony, there will be dinner, followed by endless snacks and drinks until late into the night.

　　For the second and third days, the schedule was less formal. Guests will pick among activities such as fishing, boating, sparring (no weapons allowed), and a tour of the territory which included seeing rehabilitation facilities for abused and ostracized members of the werewolf society. The Blue River pack had a reputation for providing protection and education to the less fortunate ones, and Maddox hoped that they will secure some donations as well.

　　Another goal of this extension to the party was that people can approach Tatiana and meet the new Luna of the Blue River pack in a casual setting.

　　Not all guests were set to stay for more than one day, and a handful of guests announced that they will leave after midnight. Due to security concerns, some Alphas refused to stay overnight out of fear that rogues will attack their territories because everyone knew about this event.

　　It was lunchtime with many people seated in the garden when Alpha Cristian arrived with his Luna Michelle and their son Ashton. Cristian's Beta Imre stayed in the Spring Leaf pack to take care of any issues that might arise during their absence.

　　Maddox was quick to stand up and welcome Alpha Cristian and his family.

　　As the Alpha family from the Spring Leaf pack crossed the terrace that connected to the garden, two figures emerged after them. Those were generals from the Spring Leaf pack, Jordan and Allen.

　　Jordan and Allen were both tall, tanned, and super-muscular, and humans usually thought that they were bodybuilders.

　　On his third step on the terrace, Jordan froze completely like someone hit a pause button.

　　Allen was alerted and he quickly reached for the young Alpha Ashton.

　　"Ahh!", the six years-old Ashton cried in surprise because Allen grabbed his shirt from behind and handled him like a chicken.

　　Allen pushed the boy behind him and crouched to observe the crowd, ready to attack, thinking that Jordan's unusual behavior was because he spotted an enemy.

　　This aggressiveness and the boy's cry for help got everyone's attention, and only a few noticed that Lidia, the second Wilkow sister, was standing up from her chair in slow motion.

　　"AHHH!", this shriek escaped Kalina's lips when she realized that the frozen bulky man on the terrace was her brother-in-law.

　　Mates! Malia strikes again!

　　Talia did her best to ignore Meg, Maya, and Mindy who were giving her knowing glances. There was no point in reacting because no matter what she says, those girlfriends made up their minds that Talia had the power to bring mates together.

　　After an unknown measure of time, Jordan and Lidia moved toward each other.

　　Lidia was a tall brunette with curves in all the right places, but when Jordan stood next to her, she looked feeble next to his bulky frame, like the smallest breeze would blow her away.

　　Jordan lifted his hand and caressed her cheek with his thumb.

　　Both of them were high on the fact that their other half was right there, and the addictive sparks that flared upon their contact confirmed it.

　　Lidia smiled and leaned into his touch. Jordan released a low growl, in a possessive approval of her small action that confirmed her acceptance.

　　"My love…", he murmured, and a number of sighs and suppressed squeals were heard from females who were nearby.

　　General Allen frowned at the scene in front of him. He knew Jordan since they were kids. They trained and partied together, and as much as Jordan would turn into a softy when he was drunk, that never-ever happened when he was sober, and Allen was confident that Jordan didn't lick any alcohol since the previous night. Jordan was never this… mushy. Was that a smile on Jordan's face? It looked creepy.

　　What was creepy for Allen, Lidia saw as the most enchanting smile in her life. Everything about Jordan was perfect. She liked them big and muscular, and this was a perfect male specimen like she picked from a catalog of hotties.

　　Jordan's scent reminded her of kremowka papieska, a cream cake that her grandmother used to make. Lidia could feel the flaky pastry filled with eggy custard and dusted with powdered sugar and she swallowed the saliva that pooled in her mouth. She really wanted to taste him.

　　Without any warning, Lidia jumped on Jordan, and he was quick to grab her ass and support her there for her to press on his crotch area where a bulge was formed.

　　Lidia released a shaky breath, knowing what she felt at the cradle of her thighs was for her. 

　　Her arms snaked around his neck and her ankles connected behind him.

　　"Second floor. Take right at the landing…", Lidia spoke, and Jordan's legs moved with urgency knowing that she was navigating them toward her room. He couldn't run fast enough.

　　"Is that your sister's boyfriend?", Mario asked Tatiana who looked at the double door through which Lidia and Jordan disappeared like her mortal enemy was there.

　　Tatiana would often talk about her sisters, but never in the same sentence with guys, giving him the impression that the Wilkow sisters didn't have romance in their lives. As of recently, Tatiana would talk about Kalina and Tony, and the Maddox character appeared out of nowhere, but the other three sisters were single how much Mario knew.

　　"Yes, yes", Kalina responded instead of Tatiana. "They love each other very much." There was no way a human would understand how two strangers could act so familiar from the moment they met.

　　"This reunion was totally Hollywood-worthy.", one female said dreamily.

　　Kalina responded with a stiff smile while wondering if Tatiana will be able to find another substitute bridesmaid because another Wilkow sister was taken and probably won't make an appearance tonight.

　　"Varya", Tatiana called grimly. "You are not allowed to find a man before my ceremony."

　　Varya burst into a laugh. She loved all of her sisters, but if a mate comes, she will bail the ceremony without a second thought and she wouldn't have any regrets about it. She looked at the newcomers, and after confirming that Cristian was taken, Ashton was too young, and her wolf didn't stir at the sight of Allen, Varya turned her attention back to the food on her plate while stabbing that steak like it was his fault that she ended up as the last unmated one among five sisters.
