Aurora’s Life of Dreams

Cheers

Hayley’s POV

Today is my mating ceremony day and I could not be more excited. Ian and I have been holding out for nearly two months to actually mate. We both wanted our first time with each other to be special and to seal our marks on our ceremony night. It’s been SO hard. We’ve been trying to limit ourselves to making out but there are times we get a little carried away and we have to stop completely.

*Flashback*

“Handsome.....we....need to.....stop...”

“I can’t, I need to taste you. Your lips, your tongue, your neck. I need it. Please don’t make me stop gorgeous.” Suddenly my wolf, Piper, chimed in.

“Please please please, let’s mate with him. We want him so bad!”

I suddenly pushed him down and got on top of him, straddling him I can feel his manhood pressing against me which makes me even more wet.

“Oh my gorgeous lady please let me taste your pu**y, I can smell your arousal and it smells soooo good” without even realizing it I was grinding my hips against him making me moan out, “oh, goddess baby I want you so bad.” I get out between moans. I start kissing him again, deep and passionate as I start rubbing my cl*t and in turn rubbing my hand against him only making him harder. “Princess, please stop. Or I’m going to have to let you have all of me right now.” I felt myself so close to cu**ing and I didn’t want to do it without him inside of me. I jumped off of him and ran towards the bathroom and locked the door. I turned the cold water on in the shower and climbed in clothes and all.

“Again?”

“I know, I just can’t.”

*Flashback Over*

Needless to say, we were quite ready for our mating ceremony to come and go. Hell, if we could skip straight to the after party I’d totally go for it, but I am so excited to go through this with him. My perfect mate, Ian Tran. We were only two hours from the ceremony starting, my hair was curled into the perfect braided updo, my makeup different shades of pink that really brought out my emerald eyes and to make my lips appear fuller and perfectly glossed with a small amount of blush on my cheekbones since I was already blushing naturally. I couldn’t wait to be his mate and wife, we have an ordained minister from the human world along with a pack Elder perform the ceremony so that us wolves are documented as married in their world and mated in ours. As I stared in the mirror admiring the stylist work, my mother came in behind me “sweetie, it’s time to put on the dress for pictures.” I didn’t think my mom was even going to show up since I invited my dad but she surprised me about a week ago.

*Flashback*

“Hey sweetie, thanks for taking my call. I know you’ve been really busy, but I just felt we needed to have this conversation in person.”

“Well I figured after five calls back to back, it must be something important.” I spoke with so much rudeness and attitude. I already knew what this was and I honestly wish she would have just said it over the phone. Getting kicked out of here will be a lot more embarrassing than being hung up on.

“Look sweetie, I know you invited your dad and his mate to the ceremony-“

“Okay, just stop mom. Stop right there, I get it. You won’t be there. You can’t see him with that sl*t, you can’t relive that pain again. Yada yada yada. I get it, but hear me mom. You’re closing the door on our relationship that is barely cracked open as it is, if you don’t come because of him I’ll never be able to forgive you. He helped make me too and even though he’s been the biggest douche since he met her, he needs to be there just like you need to be there. You’re my parents for Goddess sake! But if you can’t, then whatever.”

“Hayley, I was just going to tell you I wanted to sit at the head table with you” I looked at her with so much confusion and disbelief written across my face, “I understand how much I’ve hurt you, in the last two years I’ve missed so much. You getting your wolf, driving for the first time, your high school graduation, hell even finding your mate! I’ve been a shi**y mother and for that I’m so sorry, your dad rejecting me was not your fault and I’m sorry for being so absent and treating you like it was. After we lost Kaci, we drifted apart and from there he looked to another for comfort. Regardless of him being there with her, I want to be there to support you from now until the end of my days. I love you sweetie, please give me a second chance?”

My eyes were flowing with tears at her words. I took in all of her features wanting to remember every part of this moment. Her green eyes staring at me so kindly, her small sweet grin so genuine, she was even twirling her dirty blonde hair as she awaited my response. A smile took over my face, “of course momma, of course I forgive you.” I took her small frame into my arms and we just cried and held each other.

*Flashback Over*

It was always a dream of mine to have my mom help me into my wedding dress. She ran her hands over the champagne tule that seemed endless at the bottom of my dress. The halter top neckline nothing but lace from my tailbone, up my spine, around my neck and plunged between my breasts. The satin fabric hugged me as the mermaid style brought out the curves I never knew I had. The ruffles from the top of my calves down were so dramatic and every inch of the dress was covered in lace designed by the Luna. It made my heart so happy that she wanted to hand make my dress as she had done multiple times previously.

From the time Rory and I attended our first dance, the fifth grade formal to be exact, the Luna has made every single one of our dresses from then to now making my mating ceremony dress I could never be more grateful for her. She was a mom to me when my own mom couldn’t be, signing my report cards, field trip permission slips, helping me choose my first car to buy, teaching me how to save money and spend frugally, listening to me babble about boys and even listened to me cry tears of joy over Ian when I found him. She was the first person to call me wanting to know everything. She is forever going to hold a special place in my heart, so it was only fitting to have her help with my dress too. As my mom put the buttons together up my spine, Luna fluffed the ruffles at the bottom completing my look by helping me into my six inch gold heels. I looked perfect and couldn’t wait for Rory and Ian to see me.

Aurora’s POV

Everything Hayley and Ian planned was completely opposite to our normal pack traditions from the champagne dress to the mating after the ceremony, it’s really blown people’s minds. Not mine though, Hayley has always been the type to break the mold so this was really no surprise to me. It seems Ian is the same way so they definitely fit together perfectly. What did surprise me was that they did want to keep one tradition: the first look. I told her that it would definitely be the best part of the day, praying to the Goddess with your partner over your ceremony, your mate and ultimately your lives together. Then she told me exactly why she was keeping it and I broke down crying,

*Flashback*

“Rory I want to do the first look,-“

“Thank Goddess you’re going to keep one tradition, at least! It’ll be so sweet seeing those pictures of you and Ian, I know his face will be epic because you’re stunning! It wouldn’t surprise me if he cries.”

“BUT, I want to put a little twist on it.”

Oh geez I thought to myself as she started to prepare herself, are those tears in her eyes?

“Rory, I want to do my first look with you. You are my best friend, my better half and you’ve been my whole world for as long as I can remember. Our mom’s being friends set me up with a best friend for life and I’m so grateful that we’ve come as far as we have. I know Ian is going to cry when he sees me coming towards him down the aisle, but when it comes to the person I want to pray over the rest of my life with it has to be you. You’re the only person who knows my dreams, my wishes, my desires, you are my final piece of the puzzle and I need you to do this with me.”

We cried together as I nodded profusely, I couldn’t even put words together at her sweet gesture. She’s my best friend and I’m honored to do this with her.

*Flashback Over*

I was waiting outside for her to come out when suddenly my mind started flashing these visions, they were bits and pieces of my dream when suddenly they took over, but this time it was different it picked up right at the end.

**”I’m Faith I’m here to help you.” She spoke in her mindlink with me.

“How do I know you won’t hurt me?”

“Because I am your family, your mother was my sister. She didn’t want Thomas, your father, to know of her powers or mine. Ones that you have as well, you just haven’t tapped into them yet.”

“How can I trust you? Tell me something that only I would know of my mother.”

“The necklace you wear around your neck, it was hers. I gave it to her when she met her mate for the first time. He wasn’t going to be able to take her as his luna so I trapped his scent inside of the charm and carved his initials into it ‘AXH’.”

I looked down at the charm and found the initials she spoke of, it all made sense now.

“Andrew Xavier Hill.”

“Okay I believe you, now how are you going to help me?”

“I’m going to train you and your wolf, Harmony, to use your powers. A greater evil is coming for you, he is just using these men as puppets.”

“But how will we get away, we are miles from the pack house?”

“Oh sweet Aurora, we’re already there.” I looked around and she had us teleported not just back to the pack house but to my room.**

“Rory, honey, are you okay?”

“Yeah....mom...that was my dream. Well more of it.” She looked really confused, “but sweetie you are awake, your eyes glazed over like you were mindlinking with someone.” Before we could finish our conversation, out came Hayley.

I cried at her pure beauty, everything about her was absolute perfection.

“How do I look?” She asked fishing for all of the compliments.

“Oh, Hayley you look phenomenal! Gosh I’m so proud of you! You’re absolutely stunning!” I said as I took her hands and looked her up and down. I always knew she’d go all out but this exceeded even my explanation.

“Let’s have some champagne,” Laura, Hay’s mom, said cheerfully, “cheers ladies!” We all clinked our glasses together. As happy as I was in this moment, I couldn’t lie this vision is certainly stealing some of my attention.
