I smiled and leaned into Sion’s side as his arm came around me.I did. I found my person and I belong wherever he is.

“The time paradóx is broken now. Time should resume normally. Gia, use the fairy messengers to keep us informed. We need to know your movements SO We can come to your aid.” I watched as he then turned, taking a couple steps before pausing. He didn’t say a word, but he stood there waiting as he turned his head slightly to look at Adam.

“Be careful..” I watched as Adam softly k!ssed his daughter’s forehead.

“Don’t worry, I will be.”

I watched as Adam turned to walk away and Sam resumed walking on his own. Gia remained there for a couple of moments. She stood there staring at the door where her father and uncle disappeared from. Then, Conner was there. I didn’t even hear him move but he was by her side. His arm came around her and she looked up at him. A smile reached her l!ps and her body leaned into his side. Okay, I wasn’t imagining it. There was something there. The two walked back to the table together and the focus reshifted to Doug.

“Clover, you are our Luna, our leader. Our place is by your side. Your fights are our fights. Your army is ready at your command, Luna.” I listened to Doug’s words as the whole pack rose to their feet. The sound of chairs screeched against the floor and then my eyes widened in shock as they all lowered themselves. They placed a fist over their chest as a loud affirmative roar ripped through their chests in unison.

“Luna!”

I didn’t know what to say. I stood there quietly staring at everyone. I felt Sion’s warm arm come to rest around my waist and I looked up at him. His sweet hazel eyes were glowing down at me. It looked like he was so proud.

I felt bad that the first thing I would be doing to the Nova pack was to drag them into a war. Looking over everyone none of them seemed to have any reservations. It was as if the battle with Doug erased any doubts anyone may have had? I watched as Doug walked up in front of me and he nodded his head in reverence.

“It is time we finally have our ceremony binding you and your mate to the pack.” Doug said with a small smile on his face.

“Will the Nova pack be fine with combining with the Chance pack?” I asked and watched as his eyes lit up.

“The pack will follow and merge with you. This is the will of the pack.” He lifted his hands up as an affirmative yell was heard from everyone. He then looked over at Sion. “Just like when the Alpha title passed over to you, you will both feel the merger of the pack. You understand how intense this can be and may wish to prepare Clover for it.”

“Can’t you just say here is the pack?” Odell asked with minor annoyance.

“I am not asking them to move into a house. They will be taking on the pack itself. There is a leadership bond that must be formed. Uniting them as their leader. We are all part of the roots and they will be the trunk of the tree. So—” Doug started to explain but Odell waved him off.

“Whatever.” She said and shook her head.

“Give me a couple hours to have everything prepared.” Doug nodded to me and then turned and began delegating orders.

“So, what will this mean for Doug and Nadine?” Kai asked as he walked up behind us.

“They will fall in line with whatever roles given to them. You both still have openings for Delta’s…” Demetri said tilting his head to the side with his brows raised.

“We will see how things look in the future.” Sion said as I watched his eyes travel to Conner and Gia. They both were still back near the table, lost in each other’s gaze. “Excuse us for a moment… Demetri we will need a quiet space so I can prepare her for the ceremony.” I watched as Demetri nodded his head and then Sion pulled me away. He gently led me towards Conner and Gia. His eyes were taking in the scene and then he was looking at Conner. As we approached, I noticed Conner stiffened and straightened up.

“Conner.” I watched as Sion stared at his cousin and then he looked over at Gia. “We can’t have any issues with the Diamond Pack… so this can’t be something that will end badly.”

“Never… I don’t plan to mislead her.” Conner’s eyes flashed to Gia and then back to Sion. I watched as Gia stepped into his side, placing a reassuring hand on his arm. He smiled and then looked down at Gia. “You feel something between us too… don’t you?” I watched as Gia’s eyes widened. Her body looked tensed as her face began to stain the color red. Then she slowly nodded her head.

“I don’t understand it though. You aren’t my fated mate but—” Gia began but Conner pulled her closer into his side.

“There are many different types of mates in this world Gia. Some fated and some chosen. Some are even bound together through magic and powers… ordained mates. There are also the rare soul mates and true mates but even then, it isn’t limited to that.”

I watched Sion study Conner and then his lips parted slightly. “Are you saying…”

“I think… I mean I don’t know yet… but I think she may be my kismet.”

A whatsmet? I didn’t know what this meant but Sion seemed very intrigued. He also looked shocked. What exactly was this?

“What is a kismet?” Gia asked and I was glad I wasn’t the only one who didn’t know what this was.

“It is an uncommon mate bond that forms through your compatibility. You can force one into existence, you can’t choose it just like a fated mate. It is when a mate bond forms by your souls recognizing their counterpart in another. A chosen mate is a mate you choose… a kismet mate is a mate your soul chooses. It is a deep connection that once formed is unbreakable.” Sion said and I watched as Gia’s face scrunched in confusion.

“Isn’t that a soul mate bond then?” She asked and Sion shook his head.

“No. A soul mate bond is extremely rare. Those are bonds of the soul that are already destined. Some even claim they are mates whose souls reincarnated but refused to only recognize the same soul as their mate. A kismet mate is your soul choosing their mate. It happens over time, and it isn’t immediate.” Sion pulled me closer, and his fingers brushed over my arm gently.

“How do we know if that’s what this is?” Gia asked and I watched as a sweet smile reached Conner’s lips.

“You’ll hear it. If a mate bond forms through kismet, we will hear it. My beast will claim it and so will yours.”

“Lycan’s have true mates out there, right?” I asked and Conner looked at me nodding his head.

“They do. Just as those who take chosen mates have fated mates out there.” I watched as he looked down at Gia. “I would be a fool to deny what I have right in front of me. A kismet mate or not… I—” He stared at Gia with a small smile. “When your father came for you, I didn’t want you to go. I was desperate. My mind was flipping through every scenario of how I could keep you with me. I don’t know why but I don’t care why. I just want to be around you more and I want to know everything about you.”

“I didn’t want to leave you either. I didn’t realize it until I saw my uncle and father. I knew they had come for me, and I instantly made the decision not to leave. I don’t want to walk away from… whatever this is. I have never felt anything like this before and I am curious about this feeling. I don’t know why I am drawn to you but I am. I just want time to explore whatever this is.” I watched as Gia shook her head slightly and smiled. “I’m not saying anything concrete. I’m just saying I…” She stopped as if she was searching for the words she wanted to say.

“You don’t want to miss out on something great.” Conner said and I watched as Gia smiled up at him. I think a blind man could see the connection between them. Whatever the reason, it really didn’t matter. If you feel that strongly about someone that should be enough.

“Well Gia, Conner is strong and confident though I think he will be the overly protective type.” I said, reminding her of our conversation from in the cave. Those were qualities she wanted in a mate. Honestly, I think her, and Conner were a good fit. As a bonus that would mean I would get to see Gia all the time. She would join with Conner since he was Sion’s beta. This could be a really good thing to help with relations with the Diamond Pack. I understand Sion’s concerns before. They didn’t need anything else causing a rift with the lycan princess.

“How long does it take for a kismet mate bond to form? And how do you guys know about this?” I asked as Sion chuckled.

“This is ancient knowledge that most werewolves have lost over time. Lycan’s pride themselves in their knowledge and it has been passed down to us from each generation.”

“Drilled into us you mean.” Conner added as Sion nodded his head with a laugh.
