The Mystical White Wolf
FOUTYONE-THE BLUE ECLIPSE WEDDING

One Year Later: March 18th, Wedding Day

Staci POV

"Staci, stop fidgeting," Monica says as she does my makeup.

I was a ball of nerves, and my legs and hands shook. I was so nervous. Solaris was telling me to calm down, but I couldn't. Today was the big day for Antonio and me. I would walk down the aisle to my mate in an hour and say I do.

Monica was my maid of honor. My bride's maids were Marcie, Willow, Rose, Sorina, and Juliette. Juliette was Juliano's younger sister. The girls were already dressed and getting their makeup done by a few stylists, while Monica decided to do mine. The stylist was doing my hair before I put on my dress.

"They're all done," Monica said.

Antonio and I chose royal blue, white, and gray for the pack colors. The girls are in gray dresses, while Monica's is royal blue. I turned and looked into the mirror and gasped. Monica did some light blush with royal blue eye shadow and black eyeliner to make my blue eyes pop. The hairstylist pinned my curls and left a few strands hanging loose to frame my face.

"Time for the dress," Monica clapped.

The girls helped me with my wedding dress, a royal blue and white long satin halter beaded sequined with a chapel train. Monica zipped me and helped with my heels as a knock sounded on the door.

"Come in," I called out. The door opened, and I heard a gasp.

"Staci, you look so beautiful," my Mother said as tears glistened in her eyes.

"Mom," I groaned and tried not to cry.

"What? It's my only daughter's wedding day."

"I'm allowed to cry," my Mother said, walking forward.

Mom gushed over how beautiful I looked in my dress and told the girls they looked gorgeous, too. Since Dad hadn't come up yet, I assumed my nephew Samson was with his Father and Grandfather.

"Where is Samson?" I asked my Mom.

"With your brother and Antonio's parents," Mom said, fiddling with my dress. I made adjustments. Another knock sounded on the door, and I yelled for the person to come in. The door opened, and I knew it was my Dad by the scent. He stood in the doorway as his green eyes looked at me, and I could see the tears clouding his eyes as he smiled at me.

"Ugh, not you, too," I groaned as my Dad chuckled and pulled me into a warm embrace.

"My little girl is grown up. I'm allowed to be an emotional Alpha," my Dad said, making me groan and cover my face.

"I will always be your daughter, Dad," I say as he smiles and gently kisses my cheek.

"Are you ready? You look beautiful," my Dad says as he stares at me.

"More than ready," I say as he takes my hand, places it on his arm, and leads us out of the bedroom.

We exited the suite and walked toward the elevator. The girls were carrying my dress train as we entered the elevator. My heart beat out of my chest as the doors closed and the elevator descended. The wedding will be held in the garden conservatory.

Evelyn, my Mother, and the staff had been working hard to get the conservatory together for the wedding. I haven't seen the finishing touches, but I'll be amazed. The elevator stopped on the first floor, and the doors slid open. I took a deep breath and felt my blood rushing to my ears.

"Stay strong, princess," my Dad whispered, squeezing my hand.

We walked toward the conservatory, where the guys were waiting by the doors. Two warriors stood on each side. Carter, Juliano, Acilio, Seth, Liam, and Adriel looked handsome. Carter's tux was royal blue, while the guys wore the gray tux.

We had invited all our allied pack Alphas and their Lunas to the wedding. When we walked toward the doors, everyone turned and gasped. Seth stepped forward and pulled me into a warm embrace as he kissed my cheek.

"You look beautiful, sis," Seth said and stood back, taking me all in.

"Thank you," I said, blushing.

Seth stepped back and stood with Rose as everyone lined up. Aquila poked his head out the door and smiled at us. I nodded, indicating I was ready. He gave me a thumbs-up and turned back inside the conservatory. I heard music playing. Adriel and Juliette walked inside first, followed by Liam and Sorina. Next were Seth and Rose, followed by Juliano and Marcie. Last to go in were Carter and Monica, who were the best man and maid of honor.

The music changed to the wedding march as my Dad pulled my veil over my head and took my hand. He smiled at me as I nodded, and the warriors opened the double glass doors. The royal blue curtain was drawn back, and I gasped as I looked at the wedding decorations. I looked ahead, and tears glistened in my eyes. I saw Antonio standing on the steps, looking handsome in his white tux with a royal blue tie and vest.

His beard and hair were neatly cut, and his greenish-blue eyes sparkled. My heart pounded as my Dad, and I walked closer to the steps. Elder Gerard was standing on the top step as he smiled.

When we finally reached Antonio, my dad pulled my veil back and kissed my cheek. He smiled as tears gleamed in his eyes, and I tried to hold in my giggles.

"I love you, Staci," my Dad said.

"I love you too, Dad," I said as my Father nodded and turned to Antonio.

My mate and Father shook hands. My Father gently took my hand and placed it in Antonio's as he walked off and went to stand by my Mother.

Antonio turned to Elder Gerard, signaling everyone to sit and start the wedding. I took a deep breath as he began to speak.

"Good Afternoon, Blue Eclipse pack."

"We gathered here on this day to witness two souls joining as one."

"Antonio and Staci have shown us the true meaning of love and sacrifice."

"We will now hear the vows from Alpha Antonio," Elder Gerard said.

Antonio turned to me and smiled as he held my hands and looked into my eyes. My body, heart, and soul were his, and this man ensured my happiness.

"Staci, from the first moment I saw you, I knew you were the one for me."

"I was on the verge of losing hope of ever finding my mate."

"Until I meet you, and you completely captured my heart."

"You have shown great strength and purity. You love our son unconditionally, and I thank the goddess daily for you."

"I love you, Staci Marie Silva," Antonio said, winking.

I felt tears sting my eyes from my mate's beautiful vows and sniffled. Monica gently wiped my eyes as I thanked her and looked back into Antonio's eyes.

"Now we will hear the vows from Luna Staci," Elder Gerard said.

"Antonio, I thought I was a lost soul. But you changed that when we met at my birthday party."

"I didn't think love could exist so much in one being. But you have shown me that love conquers all."

"You were patient and always forthcoming with your feelings. I thank the goddess daily for sending you into my path."

"I love you, Antonio Gabriel Silva," I said and smiled.

Antonio squeezed my hands as Elder Gerard asked for the rings. He blessed our wedding rings and gave them back to Carter and Monica. Antonio grabbed my ring from Carter and held my left hand as he looked into my eyes.

"I, Antonio Gabriel Silva, take you, Staci Marie Blackwind, as my wife, mate, and Luna."

"I promise to love, honor, and cherish you until my dying breath."

"For all eternity," Antonio said as he slid the ring onto my finger.

I couldn't hold my tears back and sniffled as I grabbed Antonio's ring from Monica. She dabbed my eyes again, and I held Antonio's left hand and looked into his eyes.

"I, Staci Marie Blackwind, take you, Antonio Gabriel Silva, as my husband, mate, and Alpha."

"I promise to love, honor, and cherish you until my dying breath."

"For all eternity," I said, sliding Antonio's ring on his finger as he smiled.

We held hands as Elder Gerard began to speak. We were getting lost in each other's eyes.

"By the power vested in me and the moon goddess."

"I present Alpha Antonio Silva and Luna Staci Silva."

"You may now kiss your Luna," Elder Gerard boomed.

Antonio pulled me to his chest and kissed me passionately as everyone clapped and howled. I moaned into the kiss as Antonio held me tighter, and Elder Gerard cleared his throat. Antonio and I released each other as I blushed, and he grabbed my hand, walking us around to everyone for the congratulations.

Antonio and I chatted with our guests for the next three hours, ate delicious food, had cake, and danced. By 4 p.m., we had to get changed and head to the airport for our honeymoon. Antonio was tight-lipped about where he was taking me for our honeymoon and kept saying it was a surprise.

I changed into an ivory-colored cinched halter sundress and ivory-colored wedge heels. Antonio said to dress light and airy, so I did that. Antonio wore a white button-down shirt, khaki shorts, and brown shoes. Ace was staying with his Grandparents and mine while we were away.

The omegas had our suitcases in the SUV as Marcelo and Lucas were already seated. We came downstairs and outside. We said goodbye to everyone as I kissed my son on the head. Ace gave me a massive smile, his two top teeth showing as he babbled. Antonio kissed our son on the head and held the door open for me.

"Make me more grandbabies!" Evelyn squealed as Antonio groaned, and I giggled.

Once seated in the SUV, Marcelo drove us to the airport. It was a thirty-minute drive. I stared at my wedding ring and smiled. Solaris was howling and prancing inside my mind as the airport came into view, and Marcelo drove toward the runway.

Once we were parked, Marcelo and Lucas grabbed our suitcases as Antonio spoke to the captain. The private jet was spacious and maintained. The colors of the walls were white and brown, and the carpet was royal blue. There was a long couch on the far-left wall and seven single seats. A stewardess walked forward with a tray of champagne and smiled.

"Luna," she said and bowed as the guys settled our suitcases into the baggage compartments.

"Thank you," I said, grabbed the glass, and sat by the window.

"See you all in four weeks," Antonio said as he waved bye to Marcelo and Lucas.

Antonio joined me and sat across from me as the stewardess offered him a glass of champagne. The captain spoke through the jet speaker and announced we would be in the air soon.

"Still won't tell me where we are going?" I asked Antonio as he shook his head and sipped his champagne.

Antonio POV

After Staci asked me again if I would tell her where we were going, I shook my head and sipped my champagne. She huffed, but I saw the smile grace her lips as she sipped her drink.

"This woman is going to be my death," I thought as Ares snickered.

I felt the plane take off as the popping started in my ears, and I quickly took some gum out of my pocket and gave a piece to Staci. She took it and promptly popped it into her mouth and chewed.

"Better?" I asked as she nodded.

The stewardess walked toward us, rolling a food cart, and asked if we wanted snacks. She uncovered the sandwiches, fruits, chips, cookies, and salad tray. Staci grabbed a wrapped sandwich and a salad, and I grabbed a wrapped sandwich and fruit. Staci and I had a light conversation, as I knew this flight would take about fifteen hours.

After about an hour, Staci fell asleep. I asked the stewardess for a pillow and blanket. She gave them to me as I lay Staci on the couch, ensuring she was comfortable. I grabbed my laptop bag out of the compartment and watched some movies.

I stretched my limbs and reclined my seat as my laptop sat on the swivel table. The stewardess handed me a pillow and a blanket. I thanked her, got comfortable, and closed my eyes.

Fifteen Hours Later: (Still Antonio's POV)

"Alpha," the stewardess tapped my shoulder.

I yawned and looked at her as she smiled and stood back. I looked out the window and saw it was mid-afternoon. I looked at my watch.

"We are preparing to land, Alpha," the stewardess said.

It was after 1 p.m. I nodded and thanked her. The captain came on the speaker and announced that we were about to land and buckled up. Staci stretched her limbs and yawned.

"What time is it?" Staci asked.

"After one," I told her as she nodded.

Staci looked out the window and gasped. I smiled at the ocean, beach, and green forest surrounding Manaus. The rainforest was always beautiful, and this was the perfect honeymoon spot.

"Where are we?" Staci asked as I smiled.

"You'll see," I said as the private jet landed. The land was a little bumpy as Staci held her stomach.

Once the captain made a complete stop, he came out of the cabin and greeted us. I quickly put my laptop back in the bag and grabbed our suitcases.

"Have a nice honeymoon, Alpha and Luna," the captain said as he tipped his captain's hat to us.

The stewardess opened the door as the steps flopped down, and I walked out first, followed by Staci. The sun shone brightly as we wore sunglasses, and the heat was immense. I heard Staci gasp again as she looked at the scenery and smiled.

"Alfa Antonio e Luna Staci?" (Alpha Antonio and Luna Staci?). A man said, walking forward.

"Somos nós," (That’s us). I said as the man smiled. I heard Staci gasp again as she recognized the accent and chuckled.

"Welcome to Manaus, Brazil, my love," I said as Staci smacked my chest and giggled.

"Meu nome é Gonçalo. Eu serei seu motorista," (My name is Gonçalo. I'll be your driver). The man said and bowed.

The man took our suitcases and led us to a white SUV. He put our suitcases in the trunk as I opened the door for Staci. She climbed inside, and I slid in beside her and closed the door.

"Leve-nos para o hotel," (Take us to the hotel). I said, looking at Staci to see if she had caught on. She was still learning Portuguese, and I could tell she was confused by what I said.

"Sim, Alfa," (Yes, Alpha). Gonçalo said and buckled up. He drove from the airport and down a street as shops and restaurants appeared.

Gonçalo explained a little about the shops and best restaurants. He seemed to have lived here and was very informative about city life. We drove for about three hours until a very tall luxury building appeared. I heard Staci gasp as she looked out the window.

The building was ten stories high, had a marvelous layout, and had guests walking around. The big, bold letters read Tropical Amazônia Hotel. The colors were white and gold, with open windows and glass front doors. The building sat on a beachfront like my family's old pack house. Even though it was far from the city, it still attracted the eyes of the patrons who lived here.

"Welcome to the family hotel," I told Staci as she looked at me wide-eyed.

Gonçalo parked in front of the building as the valet walked out and started gathering our suitcases. I thanked Gonçalo as he bowed and gave me his business card. I gave him a nice tip and shook his hand.

"Sobrinho?" (Nephew?). A deep, accented voice spoke as I looked up.

The man was about 6'3 with short dark brown hair and the same ocean-blue eyes as my Grandmother. I smiled as the man walked forward and hugged me.

"Tio Jorge," (Uncle Jorge). I said and introduced Staci to my Uncle.

My Uncle walked us inside the hotel, and the valet followed with our suitcases. He explained how well the hotel was doing and thanked us for letting him manage such a business. Being the younger brother and an Alpha by blood is hard. Your wolf will want to lead by nature, so this was perfect for him.

"Eu dei a você e sua Luna a melhor vista do local," (I gave you and your Luna the best view on the premises). My Uncle said and handed me and Staci two key cards.

He led us toward an elevator as the valet pushed the baggage cart behind us. We went up to the tenth floor. The doors opened, and my Uncle led us down a long hallway. We came to a halt before double wooden doors with gold trim.

I inserted my key card as the lock beeped and unlocked. I opened the door and walked inside a beautiful, spacious penthouse with a balcony and beach view. Staci gasped as she walked around and admired the room. There was a kitchen to the left and a living room to the right. The spacious sitting area was in the center, and the bedroom was to the back on the right side.

"Aproveite seu tempo aqui, sobrinho, e divirta-se com sua Luna," (Enjoy your time here, nephew, and show your Luna a good time). I heard my Uncle say as he winked at me and left the room.

The valet graciously put our suitcases in the bedroom. I gave him a nice tip as he bowed and exited the suite. Staci and I looked around and noticed the room was fully stocked.

I was still a bit tired from the flight, and so was Staci. We ordered room service and took a nice warm bubble bath together. We had four weeks to spend together. Staci and I ate dinner and watched movies on the massive flat-screen TV in the living room. I smiled as this began a lifetime with my wife and mate.
