The morning sun poured through the entrance of Kate and Garth's den. Kate could feel its warmth against her fur, gradually waking her up. She slowly blinked her eyes open, a smile on her face.

She soon became aware that something lying across her back. Turning her head slowly, she found a red furred foreleg wrapped over her body, and then saw Garth snuggled up against her, still asleep. Kate's eyes went wide as she remembered what had happened last night.

Oh, gawd! she thought to herself. We… We… had sex!

As she lay there, her mind was racing as she thought about the events of last night. She and Garth had just lost their virginities to each other. Everything was so awkward now. However, she couldn't deny that it had been the most incredible experience of her life. She knew she would definitely want to experience it again. Plus, she and Garth were married, so she supposed they would have done 'it' eventually.

Eventually had just come a lot sooner than she had expected.

Garth was beginning to stir behind her.

He yawned. "Good morning, Kate," he said, still half asleep.

"Morning, Garth," said Kate without looking at him.

Garth sat up, and so did Kate, to get ready for the day.

Garth spoke. "Um… Kate, about last night…"

Kate sighed as she interrupted him. "Look, Garth, last night we were both horny, and emotional, and we did something we didn't plan to do," she said. "Lets just forget about it for now."

"Okay," said Garth. "Do you… regret what we did?"

Kate thought for a moment. "I guess not," she said. "I just… I think we should give this some time. You know?"

Garth nodded. "Okay."

They walked out of their den, stretched, groomed their fur a bit, and then headed off to start their Alpha duties.

Meanwhile, Humphrey was with Shakey, Salty, and Mooch as Shakey was getting ready for his and Janice's wedding. Lilly was with Janice and Reba, helping the former get ready.

"Are you ready for your big day, Shakey?" asked Humphrey.

Shakey was sitting beside a puddle and grooming himself. "I'm a little nervous," he said.

"Don't sweat it. So was I before my wedding," said Humphrey encouragingly.

Suddenly they all heard a howl coming from the south.

"I wonder what's up," Humphrey though out loud.

Suddenly a dark brown furred wolf named Rocky, one of their packs Alphas, came running by them in a hurry. He paused for a moment as he saw them.

"Hey, you guys, Hutch and Candy are back!" he said before running off again.

Humphrey and his friends all looked at each other before they ran off in the direction Rocky had come from.

They soon found a large crowd. They were gathered around Hutch and Candy as they were walking back into the pack's main territory. Humphrey, Salty, Shakey, and Mooch ran up to greet them.

"Hey, Hutch, welcome back," said Humphrey loudly over the sound of the other wolves offering their greetings.

"Thanks, it's good to be back," said Hutch to pretty much everyone.

As the crowd kept getting bigger, Humphrey wondered how Hutch and Candy had gotten along on their little 'excursion', remembering his own adventure with Kate to get home to Jasper Park. Then, as if on cue, he heard Candu ask, "So Hutch, how was it with Candy for a week?"

"It was hell," growled Hutch. "She was a whiny bitch the whole time. That's pretty much why it took us this long to get home."

Over where Candy was surrounded by Omega girls, they heard her suddenly say loudly, "I hate him! He's mean and bossy. Thank god I don't have to spend anymore time with him."

Humphrey and his friends chuckled to themselves as Candy walked off with Sweets and her other friends.

I guess some Alphas and Omegas just can't get along, he thought.

Lilly, Reba, and Janice soon showed up as well. Lilly took a spot next to Humphrey, while Janice stayed away from Shakey, believing it was bad luck for the groom to see the bride before the wedding.

Before long, Kate and Garth showed up, and shortly after, Winston, Eve, and Tony did too. Everyone backed off as the head Alphas walked up to Hutch.

"Welcome back, Hutch," said Winston.

"Thank you, sir," said Hutch, standing at attention.

"Did you have a difficult time getting back?"

"It wasn't too difficult for me. It was harder for the Omega. Luckily, those two strange birds showed up and helped us catch a ride on the back of a truck that was heading this way."

As Winston talked to Hutch, the crowd started to break up. Lilly turned to Humphrey. "Well, I better get back to Janice and help her finish getting ready."

"Okay," said Humphrey. "See you at the wedding."

Lilly turned and started to walk away when Garth came up to her. "Hey, Lilly."

"Hi, Garth," Lilly said.

"I'm sorry about leaving so abruptly last night at dinner," said Garth.

"That's okay. I hope your stomach's feeling better now," said Lilly.

"Huh?" said Garth, confused.

"Your stomach ache. Kate told us that's why you went to lie down."

"Oh, uh… right," said Garth, realizing Kate must have made up some excuse for him. "Any way, I just wanted to say I… I'm really happy for you. I know you'll make a terrific mom."

"Thank you, Garth," she said, walking up and giving him a hug. He hugged her back.

"Well, I have to go," she said, letting go of him. "I'm helping Janice get ready for her wedding. I hope I see you there."

"Okay. See ya," said Garth.

Lilly walked off again.

As she was walking along, she ran into Terra, a friend of hers and Kate's who was an Alpha. She had light brown fur with a white underbelly. Terra was also pregnant and her and her mate, Rocky, were expecting their first litter of pups. Terra was already about three weeks along and the bulge in her belly was very visible.

"Hey, Lilly," said Terra.

Lilly stopped. "Hi, Terra."

"So I hear you're pregnant too."

"Yeah," said Lilly, putting one of her paws on her tummy. "Humphrey and I are really excited."

"Yeah, so are me and Rocky," said Terra. "I can't wait to see their cute little faces when they're born."

"Hey, Terra, can I ask you something?" Lilly asked, a bit shyly.

"Shoot."

"What's it like being pregnant, you know, since you're further along than I am?"

Terra smiled. "I guess you could say it has its ups and downs. There's a lot of morning sickness at first and you put on a lot of weight. I haven't started my mood swings yet, but I hear they can be rough too. But it is such a wonderful, magical experience, you know. New life growing inside of you, feeling the pups kicking around in your belly…"

"Wow…" sighed Lilly happily as she imagined it, knowing that she would soon be experiencing that in a couple weeks.

"So, you hoping for a lot of boys? A lot of girls?" asked Terra.

"Oh, I don't care," said Lilly as she looked down at her belly. "I'll be happy with what ever we get."

"Same here, though I'm kinda hoping for at least one girl. My mate's hoping for sons, but I'd like to have a daughter."

"Well, I hope you get one then," said Lilly. Then she remembered where she was supposed to be. "Well, I have to go. I'm helping Janice get ready for her wedding."

"Okay. Nice talking to ya. I'll see you there," said Terra.

Lilly continued on her way.

Later that day, they were gathered in the valley for Shakey and Janice's wedding. It was about as big a turn out as Humphrey's and Lilly's had been. Not every wolf in the pack was there, like they had been for Kate's and Garth's wedding, but most of the Omegas were there, as well as a few Alphas, including Winston, Eve, Kate, Garth, Hutch, Terra, and Rocky.

Salty and Reba were sitting next to each other. Salty had apologized to her for what he did, and Reba had decided to give him another chance. Hopefully, Salty wouldn't screw up this time.

Everyone watched as Shakey and Janice approached the flat rock in the center of the clearing. Shakey's fur was well groomed and he was wearing a ring of flowers around his neck at Janice's request. Janice's nicely combed fur shown in the sunlight and on her head was a tiara of flowers. Her and Reba's two squirrel friends walked in front of her, throwing flower peddles onto the ground before her. They appeared quite scared being surrounded by the large crowd of non-vegetarian wolves, but Reba and Janice had promised them that they wouldn't get eaten.

Shakey and Janice stepped onto the rock and after a few moments of gazing at each other, they began the ritual. The two wolves leaned in, taking in each others scents. Then Shakey gave Janice a gentle nibble on the ear, and then she did the same to him. Soon it was time for the final part. Over the silence, you could hear soft sobs of joy coming form Reba because she was happy that her best friend was getting married.

Shakey and Janice leaned in close to each other, closed their eyes, and finally their noses made contact and they rubbed them together affectionately. They were now mates.

Everyone began howling out of joy and then started going up to congratulate the newly weds.

"I got married!" Janice squealed happily next to Shakey as their friends surrounded them.

As Reba left Salty's side to go up and embrace Janice, tears flowing down her face, Salty leaned over to Humphrey and Mooch, and whispered, "You know what would make this wedding perfect? If Janice picked Shakey up in her arms and carried him off to their honeymoon."

Humphrey and Mooch couldn't help but laugh at Salty's joke.

As everyone at the wedding began to depart, Hutch stayed behind, unnoticed, and then slunk away by himself out of the valley to a secluded spot in the forest. He waited for a little bit until a younger, female wolf with brown fur showed up. It was Candy.

"Hey," Hutch said to her with a smile.

She smiled back. "Hey. I thought that wedding would never end."

Candy and Hutch walked up to each other and started to lick each other's muzzles affectionately.
