The Alpha Warrior Princess

Wedding day Prep

Elena spent the day getting ready with her sister in law and their friends. She had showered and felt refreshed and was ready to marry her mate.

Caleb had shown up shortly after lunch with tears in his eyes and a happy baby Hunter in his arms, pleading for the women to take him so he could nap. He had dropped to his knees begging Emily to take the bouncing baby. “You are a Wonder Woman and I don’t know how you do it and I don’t deserve you!” He wrapped his arms around Emily’s legs begging, causing the women to laugh. Violet and Lily were more than happy to oblige and played with Hunter on the floor, while Emily and Mia worked their magic on Elena.

They curled her hair and pinned some of it up and leaving most of it down. Emily worked her magic on Elena’s make up, a smoky eye and glossy lips, and did Lily and Violet’s hair and make up too.

“We got you this”, Violet handed her a bright pink bag, from their favourite lingerie shop. Inside was a white lacy one piece set, that left little to the imagination. There were garter clips and white stockings.

“Noah is going to destroy that”, Emily noted, while pinning some of Mia’s hair up.

Elena stared at it. It was hot. It was definitely something that she would rarely if ever wear. She couldn’t wait to seduce her mate.

Mia reached into her bag and pulled out a small box. She cleared her throat nervously. “I know you never got to meet my mom,” she started, tears brimming her eyes. “But she loved pretty tiaras, even though she rarely wore them.” The girls eyes all started to brim with tears. “She left this for you”. She shakily handed Elena the white box. On top of the box, there was a note that read “to my son’s mate”

Elena accepted the box from Mia’s shaking hands, pulling her in for a long hug. “Thank you” she whispered in Mia’s ear.

“For what?” Mia looked at her through her tears in bewilderment.

“For being you”, Elena whispered, holding her sister in law close. This was what it was like to have a big sister.

Elena carefully removed the note, unfolding the paper.

To my Son’s Mate

I’m sorry I’m not there to meet you in person. I can only imagine what a gift you are to our family. But especially to my son. I imagine you to be caring and loving and fierce and independent. I picture you as beautiful and as a goddess.

Please take care of my boy. I don’t doubt that you will. He is a rambunctious, wild boy but he will love and cherish you with all that he has. He is, after all, a true mommas boy.

I wish I could have met you, my daughter in law. I know if my son loves you, I would have too.

Stay true to you. You are our family’s precious Princess.

Much love,

Amanda (but you can always call me mom)

Xoxo

There was not a dry face in the room as Elena read the note out loud and handed it around for the women to look over. “Oh mom” Mia sighed between sobs. Elena opened the box and inside lay the most beautiful white gold tiara with diamonds and blue sapphires.

Elena lifted it from the box carefully.

“May I?” Mia asked between her tears. They stood in front of the mirror and Mia set the tiara on Elena’s head. “It’s perfect” Mia whispered.

“I need a minute to collect myself”, Elena excused herself to the washroom. She stared at herself in the mirror. She felt unrecognizable. She took some deep breaths and imagined her parents and what the queen had been like. She thought of her own parents whom she loved and missed so much.

“My love. I cannot wait to see you.” Noah’s voice came in over mind link.

“I miss you so much” Elena responded to him, tears escaping her eyes as she heard her mates voice.

“I’ve tried to give you space. I just need you to know I love you. More than I ever knew possible” he told her.

“I love you too. So much”, she whispered. Feeling a deep sigh of relief escape her, just hearing his voice.

“I just hope you’re ok and my sister and Em aren’t torturing you. I will see you soon. I love you so much” he told her, and Elena could feel the tears in his words. The truth in all that he said.

She took a deep breath and removed her robe, opening the bag and sliding on the sexy little lingerie piece her friends had got her. It fit like a glove she thought as she slid on her stockings, clipping them into place, then slid the garter up her thigh.

“Oh ladies!” She entered the room in the little piece. They looked up from dressing in their gowns.

“Holy f**k!” Emily dropped her dress, her jaw dropped. Their mouths were all agape as Elena did a little twirl.

“Rip Noah”, Violet looked up to the heavens.

Elena quickly retreated to the washroom giggling. She couldn’t wait to show Noah.

She slid on her dress and Mia came in to help her with the back.

“Noah is so lucky. You are truly incredible,” she whispered to her sister in law as she did up the intricate bodice at the back of the dress. “You have something old and something new, now I want to give you something to borrow”, Mia smiled. She reached around her neck and removed the white gold necklace with the small stone. It was a gift from her the Queen that bestowed some of the Queens gift of healing. “I’m going to need it back for labour”, Mia winked her beautiful brown eye at her through the mirror, as she did up the necklace on Elena’s neck.

Mia stood back to admire her. “Stunning” she whispered and kissed her cheek.

Mia retreated to the bedroom to get on her dress. Elena took in her reflection. She truly felt like a Princess. A deserving one. She for once didn’t feel the imposter syndrome but instead felt she had a place in the world. A place where she had family and was cherished and worshipped and she was worthy of love.

She slid on her gold heels and smoothed out her dress. It was simple and elegant. A lace overlay over a slightly fitted bottom with a decent length train. It crossed over at the top, similar to that of a Greek goddess.

She entered the room and the girls were all dressed in their sapphire blue satin gowns. Elena had surprised Emily with one, which had caused more tears. They all crossed similarly in the front. Hunter was in his little tux, and was drooling away on the floor. Emily rushed around, touching up their hair and make up. They held their bouquets of white roses. They all pushed what they were doing and gasped as Elena entered the room.

“You look like a Princess”, Lily gasped.

Emily rushed forward and touched up her make up and lip gloss.

Just then there was a knock at the door.

“It’s go time ladies!”Lukas’ voice came from the other side of the door.

Elena looked around the room nervously. “Ready lovelies?” She asked.

They squealed and cheered and Hunter clapped enthusiastically.

“Come in Lukas!” Mia called, smiling at her sister in law.
