I tossed and turned all night. I just couldn’t get settled, and it didn’t help that Iris was off on her tangent. She kept calling for her
mate, and it was driving me crazy. She acts like I don’t want Mark. Actually, I can’t be mad at her. I did act as if he wasn’t what I
wanted, but that simply isn’t true.
I grab my phone off the nightstand and see it’s 3:15 in the morning. I know sleep will not be visiting me at all, and I wish I were
back home. If I were, I would go for a run and try to tire myself out. I’m visiting a different territory, and it isn’t smart to take off for
a run under those circumstances. Not only that, but if I let Iris out, I know exactly where I’d end up. I asked Mark to give me time
before he asks that I accept his rejection. I just need to build my strength and be mentally prepared for the loss.
I sigh and turn to my side. I stare at the wall for a bit, watching the movie that isn’t my life play out. I scroll through my phone,
looking at different videos and memes. Nothing is pacifying my wolf or me, but I’m not surprised. I sigh again and lock my phone.
I place it back on the nightstand and lie on my back, looking up at the ceiling. I could try counting sheep, but I’m not sure that
would work.
I make a choice to go work out. I’m sure that I can make it to the gym, and maybe a vigorous workout will help me sleep at least
a bit. I finish lacing up my shoes, having put on a workout outfit. I grab a small towel out of the bathroom and head to the door. I
pull the door open, and the shock almost knocks me on my a*s. Standing at my door is Mark, and my voice disappears, my
Mark clears his throat, looking everywhere but at me. “Uh, was I disturbing you?”
“N...no. I...I was just going to go work out.”
“It’s pretty early for that, don’t you think?”
“I couldn’t sleep.” Mark nods but doesn’t respond. “Did....did you need something?”
“Yeah, uh.....did you have a minute?” I quickly nod, not trusting my voice. “ Maybe I can go to the gym with you. I wouldn’t want
anything to happen to you while you were on my territory.” I give Mark a small smile and step toward him, closing the door
behind me. We turn to the stairs and start to walk. I feel a flutter in my stomach as Mark gently takes my hand.

I can feel the sun’s rays on my face, and I take a deep breath. Today is the day! Today is the day that I become the official Luna
of this pack. I know a lot of people aren’t happy with that fact, but there’s nothing they can do about it. My mates and I have
marked each other, and the ceremony will make my status official.
I stretch out my arms, and sadness sets in when I come up empty. The bed is cold on either side of me, causing me to sit up and
look around the room. My door is thrown open with my mom and Lynn walking in. They are smiling ear to ear.
“GET UP B***H!!! Your day is finally here.”
“Language, Lynn, language.” Lynn covers her mouth.
“My bad.” Lynn jumps on the bed and cuddles next to me. “It’s time to get up girl. We have an entire day of beauty ahead of us.”
“Where are my mates?” Mom chuckles and shakes her head while going into the closet.
chuckling at me. She hands me some clothes to throw on, and we head downstairs for a quick breakfast.
We head to a waiting SUV after breakfast. Our driver is taking us to the spa for the day of beauty that my mom had planned. The
only thing missing is the Luna, but I can’t say that I’m surprised. She didn’t want me to be mated to her sons or to take over her
position, so she definitely wasn’t going to help me get ready for the ceremony. I take the car ride to mindlink the twins.
You guys couldn’t have given me a heads-up?
Awww, love. You’ll be fine. We want you to enjoy your day.
We can’t wait to see you later! The mindlink was cut, and I’m in shock. Why does it feel like they are up to something? I can’t
dwell on it too long because we have arrived, and they are waiting for me to get out of the car. I decide to make the best of the
day and make sure I look amazing for my mates later.

WHERE IS IT?! I’m currently tearing up the downstairs of my home, and the frustration has been permeating. It’s been more
than 24 hours since I notice it missing, and it’s driving me crazy. I have made sure to keep to myself while I search for it.
The first place I looked for my watch was in my office in the training area. I don’t like to wear it when I’m training, so I take it off
and place it on my desk. There have been times when I left it in my desk and had to go back and get it, but this wasn’t that.
I searched the entire upstairs of my house but still came up empty. I’m searching everywhere downstairs: couch cushions,
kitchen, chairs, etc. I have no idea what happened to that watch, but I really need it. I have duties to complete today as head
warrior, and I can’t do them to the best of my ability without that watch.
I stand in the middle of the living room, looking at the mess surrounding me. I haven’t seen the watch yet, and I’m starting to get
extremely anxious. I know the anxiety is not because the watch is missing but because of what the missing watch means and
what it could lead to. Goddess, help me if I don’t find that watch. I take a deep breath and head back upstairs, determined to use
the time left. I have to find that damn watch..
