Garrett
He put their luggage down inside the Alpha Suite and mind–linked to the boys, he could feel
that they were all here inside the pack, told them about the run–in he’d had with Chloe
Silverton and the very words she stated to her grandfather Albert Silverton, who she’d been
there at the airport to collect.
That spoiled rich girl needed to be taught a harsh lesson, and he was going to be the one to
do it. To use her own family to do so at that. He knew Harmony wasn’t going to want him to
do anything, but that girl could have walked right past them and pleaded ignorance to them
also having been at the airport. But no, she just couldn’t seem to do it.
She was nothing more than a vindictive, spiteful woman. Huntley was more than ticked off,
they’d had a very nice weekend and now their coming home had been ruined. He was going to
see that Chloe was removed from society as much as he was going to Damien.
Wyatt, Ryan and Dallas walked into his suite and looked at him. They could see his annoyance right there on his face, and had been unhappy about not being involved last time. So he would bring them in this time. “She just couldn’t leave it alone.” He grated out “Got everything she wanted still goes out of her way to try and drag Harmony down.” He muttered “I’ll not be
standing for it. I’m done playing nice with the humans.”
“Harmony won’t like it.” Ryan warned him.
“I understand.” Garrett nodded “I want that girl and her fiancé gone from this city, so she has no reason to ever come back here. Ryan, first thing I want you to do is go out and purchase everything the Silverton’s have on the market. Their own wealth took a hit by sticking to the Blackwells, less than market value, start ringing your contacts.”
“Sure, they’ve got them at market value, but it’s not a sellers‘ market right now, so I’ll offer cash for a decrease in price. If they want a quick sale, they’ll take it regardless.” Ryan nodded.
“I am going to get that nasty couple shipped off by their own parents, to show them they aren’t worth their own lineage. That all the trouble they’ve caused actually has consequences for their own families.” He thought about that for a moment, how to do it.
“Wyatt, get me a meeting with both families tomorrow afternoon. I gave Albert 24 hours, make that meeting for 20 minutes after my plan landed today,” he stated.
“Gregory will have the Silverton’s number, so that will be easy,” Wyatt nodded.

“I’m going to put a complete stop to it once and for all. I’ve left them alone for weeks now, had let it go. But if that spoiled little rich girl wants to play with the big boys, I’m going to play.” He nodded.
“Where do you want the meeting?” Wyatt asked.
“Not in the office.” He stated thoughtfully, “One of their two estates will do, and I want both Chloe and Damien right there in the room… Dallas get the tech department to hunt down the footage of Harmony and I coming through the airport, and anything outside if there is some, she flipped me off on the way to the carpark. If you can get that as well, I’d appreciate it.”
“What exactly are you looking for?” Dallas asked.
“I want to see what actually went on in the airport, before she opened her mouth. Was it just in passing, or did she realise we were there and come and have a go at Harmony? Was it a flippant remark of deliberate?” he stated.
“You want copies of it to show her family and Gregory, in other words,” Dallas mused.
“Yes, I warned that man already.”
He watched Wyatt and Dallas leave the suite and Ryan sighed “I know you’re angry, Garrett, but this could make Harmony mad at you.”
“I’m not going to harm them, Ryan. I will do this their way, with the lawyers. I’m going to legally
attack them. Where’s Laurie?” he asked.
“I don’t know,” Ryan shrugged.
He pulled on her tether and found she wasn’t in the pack, likely still in the office. He pulled his
phone out and called her “Laurie, I have need of a lawyer.” He stated before she could even say
hello “I want a contract drawn up and any charges that can be laid out on the Blackwell’s and
the Silverton’s for all that they have done to Harmony. Regardless of how small it is. Add
slander from Chloe to myself.” He grated out “I want it all separated out, a charge for each individual attack. Not lumped in together.”
“What happened?” she asked with a sigh.
“Come home, right to my office, and we’ll discuss it all. You might want to bring the other lawyers in on it to make it go much faster. I want it done by tomorrow.” He stated.
“Alright.” She clicked the line closed.
“A proper attack,” Ryan stated.
“Yes, and one that will force those two families‘ hands, and see them ship their ingracious

children off to some other part of the world. Away from me and Harmony for good. Is Damien out of the hospital yet?” he asked.
“Yes, I believe he was released last week,” Ryan nodded.
“Good, he’ll have no excuse not to be there.”
Garrett headed downstairs as he looked at the time. It was only just after 4pm and he watched Ryan pull his phone out and make a call. The business day wasn’t over yet, he could start the purchasing of Silverton land.
He found Harmony sitting with his mother in the foyer. His mother’s wedding planner was open and right there as well. “Planning are we?” he asked as he sat down.
“Yes.” Harmony nodded “You should stay here and help.”
“I will.” he told her “Until Laurie comes home, then there’s a legal meeting I need to attend with
her.”
“I thought, son, a small simple party that would look to the humans like an engagement party, but a wedding here prior to that, and then the Luna Ceremony later in the year as the actual
wedding, gives a reason for that big lavish wedding that’s not seen as a second one.”
“Harmony?” he asked, knowing that she had a dress already.
“I don’t mind, but I didn’t buy a dress for an engagement party.” She shook her head.
“Hmm… I could have Maribella alter the one you have if you’re open to that, shorten it, to say a
tea–length or knee–high dress, to make it more of an engagement dress?” his mother asked
after a moment’s thought.
He looked at Harmony, and she was also, he noted, thinking about it. “The boys and I, or
mother and the girls along with Laurie could take you up to Montana, for the choosing of a
Luna dress, Piper Harper is one of us, and a well known wedding dress or Luna dress designer.
He stated “I’m certain mother could call Piper and find a time to fit you in.”
“Piper Harper, As in Goddess Gowns?” Harmony asked him.
“Yes, you could all make a weekend of it, likely stay inside the Black Haven Pack for safety as well.” he nodded “We’re allied, both in construction and help each other a fair bit.”
“Oh, she could start looking at designs on the Goddess Gowns website.” His mother smiled.
“I think a Goddess Gowns dress would be perfect, it also doesn’t have to be white just to let
you know, any colour you like.”

Harmony was looking at him, and he knew she wanted to say something but was debating it.
“Just say it sweetheart.” He told her.
She nodded “I was thinking that I wanted to wear the dress you bought for me already. I really
like it, it’s beautiful and elegant…we got engaged while I was wearing it… I liked wearing it and
would like to do so again.” She smiled at him “Do I really have to buy a new dress?”
“No.” he smiled at her. “You looked stunning in that dress. It would also, I believe, be perfect for a Luna’s dress. If that’s what you want Harm, then that is what we’ll go with.”
She smiled right at him, and he knew she did actually want to wear it, wasn’t just thinking about saving money. “What will you be wearing?” she asked right back.
“My pack suit, which is tradition for formal occasions, all the boys will also wear pack suits and your women will likely dress in the pack colours as well. Navy blue and black are our pack
colours.”
“Hmm, will
my dress go with that?” she asked.
“Yes, the jacket is mostly black, has a navy blue lapel, with navy blue pants and vest. I’ll also wear a white dress shirt and black tie, so it will all match. Though it wouldn’t matter if it didn’t, as long as you wear something you love, not something you don’t.” he told her.
She was quiet for a long minute thinking about something: “I was thinking that perhaps we don’t need a human wedding, if we’re going to have a Luna Ceremony. Why do both?”
He watched her hold up a hand to his mother to halt her words “What if we do the engagement party properly, no wedding prior to it. I can wear that dress we just bought, no point in letting it go to waste, and have it shortened like you mentioned Deidre, to just below
the knee. You’ll still get to plan the party.”
“You don’t want a wedding?” his mother frowned.
“I don’t think I need one if the Luna Ceremony is going to be just like one, we could do vows on that day. And a six–month engagement is a good idea, nothing rushed. Also, it would be better for Garrett’s image as well, I think.” Harmony nodded thoughtfully.
“A baby before marriage though?” Deidre sighed a little.
“Yes,” Harmony nodded “But that is actually acceptable out there in the human world. In this day and age, some couples have two or three children before getting married. Some don’t even get married, just live together and have a family without getting married even.” She shrugged.
He smiled, she was very forward, thinking. “I’m okay with that.” He nodded “Mother why don’t

you contact Luna Danielle and see if you could book the rooftop ballroom for the engagement party.”
He saw his mother smiling widely now. “That is a beautiful place for a human world
engagement party. I’ll go make a call and see if we can be squeezed in sometime soon. I
know it’s pretty much booked out all the upcoming weekends. Would you mind a midweek
party?”
“No.” both he and Harmony stated together, and he smiled at her as his mother laughed a
little.
“Good, I’ll go and sort that out then.” And she was up and gone.
