ear, that I look gorgeous, her little words of encouragement going long ways.
“Oh sweetheart, Samuel, and Caleb won’t know what hit them, when they see you walking
towards them in that dress,” she giggles she holds my face in her hands, the emotion swirling in her eyes, she blinks a few times to control the tears.
R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’
“Now, you better get back to the dressing room before I mess up your dress with my
makeup,” giggling, I can’t believe I’m here sharing this with my mother.
Tori stands up and walks over to me, her eyes shining with unleashed tears as she stares,
“You’re beautiful. Your mates are lucky to have found a great girl like you,” she mumbles out
through a smile. I throw my arms around her, I hear her sniffle a little, leaning back she gives me a little smile.
“What’s wrong Tori?”
“Well, things are going to be different now, you’ve found your mates, and I’ve found mine.
We won’t be together much anymore,” she shoots out and my eyes widen. How can she say that?
Nothing is going to change just because we’ve found our mates.
“Tori, nothing has to change. It’ll be the same as it always has been. The only part that will
be different is that I’ll have my own house,” I say with a grin and she giggles nodding her head, my mother shaking hers, smiling at us both.
“You two know you both could never be torn apart. I remember a time where Elizabeth was
grounded and I found you both sleeping in her room,” she mentions raising a brow at Tori, who
blushes turns her head away. I remember all the times where I was grounded and had to stay home,
no phone, no visitors. Tori always found a way to sneak into my room, my parents didn’t say much.
They knew that Tori’s the only person I would talk to.
“Well, I’m going to change, don’t want this dress to get dirty. I think you’ve found a winner
mom, and it was the first dress I tried on,” I say with glee, the endless amount of dresses there is in this store; let’s just say I’m glad to have had my mother here to help pick the dress out. I would’ve been so overwhelmed with it all. I probably wouldn’t have found it.
I slowly shut the door in the changing room, looking at myself in the mirror one last time
before taking the dress off, placing the lovely gown back on the hanger; I get my clothes back on.
Once I’m dressed, taking the dress off of the hook, making my way out of the dressing room and
back to my mother and Tori. My mother puts her hand out for the dress, puzzled I look at her. I’ve
saved a fair amount of money working here and there in the city, so I was going to pay for the dress, but I guess my mother has other plans.
“This is my wedding gift to you. I want to pay for your dress.” My mother says in the
sweetest voice, tears threaten to slide out of the corner of my eye once again. My mother smiles at
me, I hand over the dress and she walks to the front of the shop to pay for it. How could I be so
lucky? My parents are amazing; I got an awesome best friend and two loving, incredible mates. I’ve
been truly blessed.
Tori and I wait near the door of the shop, my mother comes over with a huge dress bag in
her hands, “You guys ready for some lunch?” She asks slinging her purse over her shoulder. We both
nod.
R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’
“Great, let me put the dress in the car and then we’ll walk down the street and find a place
to eat at,” she says she opens the door in the shop and walks out, Tori and I follow behind her. After the dress is safe in the car, my mother locks the door and we start walking down the street where
there’s a line of restaurants.
After about twenty minutes of trying to figure out what we want to eat. We finally decide on
Chinese. Tori was ecstatic, she loves Chinese food. When we get inside the restaurant, there’s a
waiter waiting near the door at a little booth, once he sees us enter he comes over right away
escorting us to a table, he hands us our menus and takes our drink orders.
“What are you going to order, Elizabeth?” Tori ask, looking at her menu.
There are so many choices to choose from, I’m torn between the chicken chow mein and the
Kung Pao chicken.
“Hmmm… not sure, maybe the Kung Pao chicken, what are you going to order?”
“I think I’ll get the sweet and sour pork and a bowl of rice on the side,” she says, closing her
menu and she places it on the table.
My mother’s still looking at the menu, trying to figure out what she wants, she finally closes
the menu before the waiter shows back up with our drinks, he asks if were ready to order. After
telling him our orders, he takes the menus from us and he heads back to the kitchen area. It’s nice being out with them both; it’s been so long since all three out us have been out together.
“Are you excited about the ceremony?” Tori asks, nodding my head. The ceremony will take
place at the Jackson’s house; they’re paying for the ceremony. Which I argued about because I want
to be able to pay for something and my father didn’t seem to like it either that they’re paying for
everything, but we all came to an agreement. My father will be paying for the cake and all the
flowers. Alpha Darren was hesitant at first he wanted to pay for our special day but he was fine with my father wanting to help.
“Yes, I can’t wait to be tied to them both them for the rest of our lives,” Tori chuckles,
probably at the dreamy look that’s stuck on my face.
We’re having a nice supper at my parent’s place tonight, Samuel mentioned that there’s a
surprise, he’ll be letting me know tonight at supper. I can’t wait to see what it is. I’m not good with surprises, well mostly because I hate waiting. Tori excuse’s herself from the table and heads to the bathroom, leaving me alone with my mother. I’ve been with my parents for almost eighteen years,
living under their roof, and within two days I’ll be a mated woman, and living in my own house with
R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’
my mates. I’m happy that I’ll be with my mates but at the same time, I’m sad because I’m leaving my
parents. My mother must sense my mood because she gives me the sweetest smile ever.
“Don’t worry sweetheart, we’ll always be there for you. You might be mated and live in your
own house, but we’re still your parents and you’re still our little girl.” Her words soothing me, giving her a smile of my own, we both chuckle teary eyed.
Tori arrives back at the table, just as the food comes out from the kitchen, the waiter places
all the yummy goodness on the table in front of us. My stomach growling loudly I look down at my
plate, the smell of the chicken hitting my nose, taking my fork I dig in, groaning when the heavenly chicken hits my tongue. It goes quiet at the table and Tori and my mother are staring at me, you can tell they are trying hard not to laugh but they fail, they burst out laughing, my cheeks warming I look around and see people have stopped eating and they’re looking over at us. Oh God, did they hear
me groaning?
My mother chuckles shaking her head, she turns to Tori, “So how are you and Ryan doing?”
Tori smiles tucking her hair behind her ears, “Ummm… everything seems to be going well.
I’m just worried about telling my parents,” she says biting her bottom lip worriedly.
“I’m sure your parents will understand. Your mother kno
ws about shifters,” my mother
mentions and Tori’s eyes widen.
“Umm… What?” Tori squeak staring at my mother with big eyes.
“Yes, your mother knows about shifters. She’s been a good friend of mine for years, before
you and Elizabeth. We went to school together, when we were younger. Your mother dated a shifter
a long time ago, before your father,” Tori’s sitting there in shock with the information my mother
just shared with us.
We finish eating our lunch, the waiter brings the receipt. My mother gets up from the table
and starts walking towards the front of the restaurant to pay. Tori and I also get up from the table, going up behind my mother waiting as she pays. She puts her credit card back in her wallet nodding
at the woman behind the counter, she turns and nods at us before turning around and walks out.
My mother pulls up to our house, my mother gets out of the car and grabs the dress bag in
the back, then Tori and I get out of the car, making our way to the front door. When we get inside
and the TV is on, and we hear my father cheering. My mother walks towards the living room first,
and we follow her, turning the corner, I see the sports channel on, well now I know why my father
was cheering, him and his sports.
R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’
My mother walks over to him and she leans down placing a kiss on his lips, which turns into
something a little more passionate when he pulls her down onto him, my eyes widen and I clear my
throat loudly, making it known that I’m still standing right here and I don’t want to see this. My
father looks over at me, I’m sure I got a disgusted look on my face while I glare at them both. He
chuckles and gets up from the couch with my mother in his arms, placing her to her feet; he walks
over to me, giving a little hug and kisses my forehead.
“How did dress shopping go?” he asks, he eyes the bag my mother place on the chair beside
the couch.
“Oh Daddy, it was amazing. We’ve found the perfect dress,” I say with a huge smile
plastered on my face.
“Great, do I get to see it?” he asks prying; I can’t help but laugh when I see his puppy dog
eyes he does. It’s hilarious when my father does that face.
“Sorry dad, but I want you to see it on me the day of the ceremony,” he grumbles about it
not being fair, that my mother saw it, and he didn’t as he leaves the room talking to himself. My
mother looks at me grinning; she tries to contain her laughter.
“Hey, you want to come up and watch a movie or something?” I ask Tori, she looks up from
her phone.
“Can’t, I got to get going. Ryan just texted me, he wanted to know if I wanted to watch a
movie with him,” she mentions with a smile small. I’m glad things are going better for them, the
more time they spend together, the better.
I walk Tori out to her car, waving as she pulls out and drives away. Heading back inside, I
grab my phone, shouting to my parents that I’m going to take a little nap; today has been a lot of
excitement for me. Once I get to my room, flipping to my text messages, clicking Caleb and Samuel’s
name, sending them a text.
Elizabeth- : Just texting to let you both know that I’m going for a nap, so don’t panic if I
don’t response to a text.
Not even two minutes later, my phone chirps.
Caleb- : Okay, no problem. You had a pretty long day with trying on dresses and whatever
else you girls did. I’ll talk to you later when you get up. Love you.
Samuel- : Can’t wait to see you tonight, have a good nap. I love you, little gem.
Reading both of their text messages causes butterflies in my stomach, smiling as I type in ‘I
love you’ to both of them, I turn my ringer off, placing it on the bedside table, flopping onto my bed.
My eyes slowly start to close and I drift off to sleep.
R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’
Chapter 15
I feel something hitting my cheek, groaning sleepy, stretching my hand out it hits something
solid. My eyes snap open to see Samuel lying down in front of me smiling. My face breaks out into a
smile as I stare lovingly at my mate. I place a small kiss to his lips, sitting up looking around my room, Caleb isn’t here, looking down at Samuel he’s in a sitting position now, and he puts his hands on my shoulders, rubbing them gently, groaning because the feeling of his hands rubbing in circles over my tight muscles feels heavenly.
“Where’s Caleb?” my voice full of sleep.
“Caleb’s downstairs helping your mother with supper,” he says leaning into me, kissing my
lips, his tongue outlining my lips outer lip before slipping into my mouth, groaning as his tongue
plays with mine, my stomach fluttering with excitement as he lies me back down on the bed. I feel
his body pressing against mine, his erection digging itself into my thigh, my body starts grinding
against him out of instinct.
He groans pulling away from me, “We don’t have time for me to make you come on my
fingers, little gem. I’m sure everyone is waiting for us,” he whispers against my lips, resting his
forehead against mine.
“We should head downstairs,” frowning because I don’t want to go downstairs, I want to
stay up here with him in bed, feeling his hands on me, his lips touching the sensitive spot on my neck and his huge member to be rubbing against me while I grind on him.
He chuckles at my expression, he kisses the tip of my nose, I scrunch up my face, making him
laugh even harder, “There will be plenty of time for this on our mating night, my little gem. Don’t
fret; you’ll have the best night of your life.” He says, his promise causing little tremors to roll through my body. He gets up off the bed, putting his hand out to me, he smiles lovingly at me.
I take his hand in mine; he lifts me off the bed pulling me flush to him, kissing my forehead
gently. He raises a brow at me causes me to giggle, “Okay, let’s head downstairs before I can’t stop myself,” he grins at my response, and we head to the door.
“You’re not the only one that has a hard time stopping, believe me,” he mentions, he opens
the door and we head downstairs.
R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’
When my foot hits the landing at the bottom of the stairs, the smell of supper hits my nose,
my stomach growls lightly, Samuel shaking his head, placing his hand on my lower back guiding me
in the direction of the kitchen, but my feet are carrying me towards the heavenly smell already, not guiding needed. My mother and Caleb are in the kitchen putting the finishing touches on supper.
Caleb looks up and smiles when he sees me standing there at the opening of the kitchen. He walks
over to me; he gives me a little peak while wiping his hands on a towel.
“Elizabeth, supper will be ready any minute now, can you and Samuel please set the table,”
my mother takes the plates down out of the cupboard placing them on the Island.
“Sure, mom, is there anything else that needs to be put on the table?” she nods grabbing
the rest of the items, handing them to me. Samuel grabs the plates off the Island and we head to the dining room. This will be the first time we use the dining room since we moved here, we usually eat
in the kitchen, but I can’t see my two big mates sitting at that table comfortably.
When I get to the Mason’s with Sam
uel, Sarah was in the kitchen preparing supper all by her
lonesome, I’m curious to know where Elizabeth is, I know she went for a nap earlier, but I was for
sure she would be in here helping her mother.
“Hi Mrs. Mason, where’s Elizabeth? I thought she would for sure be down here helping you
with supper,” as soon as I mention Elizabeth, she starts laughing.
“Well, she’s had a very exciting day. She went to take a nap earlier when we got home, and
she hasn’t come down since,” she says, she continues to cut the vegetables.
I turn to Samuel, “You can head up and see how our mate is doing. I’m going to help Sarah
with supper,” his eyes light up, knowing he’ll be alone with our mate for a bit before supper. Samuel turns and leaves the kitchen, chuckling to myself; I make my way to the sink washing my hands, now
standing in front of the Island with the knife in hand.
“What would you like me to cut up?”
Sarah shoots off a list of vegetables that need to be cut and I get to work. After I got all the
veggies she wanted to be cut up and into a bowl on the Island, she mentions supper should be ready
in about fifteen minutes. I look in the big pot on the stove, the aroma of something delicious hits my nose.
R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’
“We’re having spaghetti for supper with homemade sauce and also with homemade bread,”
my stomach growls loudly, Sarah looks up at me from stirring the sauce and laughs shaking her head.
I’m not sure if Samuel can eat this. I know the Mason’s keep blood bags here now for
Samuel when he’s over. I’m sure he’s on edge after tasting Elizabeth’s blood the other night. He
hasn’t tasted her since, but I know he’s itching to.
I seriously can’t wait to see Elizabeth’s face, when I tell her about the wedding gift I got her
and Caleb tonight at supper. I hope she’s thrilled with the idea of us having our own house. Caleb
already knows about the gift, and it’s more for Elizabeth anyways but I also talked to her parents
about it as well. Her mother was excited and a little sad, knowing her baby girl will be out living on her own. Her father well, he didn’t say much on the matter but I could tell he wasn’t thrilled about the idea of his baby girl leaving. What father would be? I know I wouldn’t be.
