Hello loves! This is the first part (in a two part fic) for the project Halloween project I have coming in October.

"I don't know how much longer our families can survive this feud, it's gone on for centuries. This needs to stop."

"So what do you suggest we do? It's not like we can just say hey we want it to be over, let's forget all the hurt our families have done to each other. We need a way to connect our families to keep anyone from feeling tempted to fight again. I don't believe just a simple word would be enough."

"I might have an idea."

Sighing, Bray, the alpha of the Wyatt pack, looks out the window watching as the rain falls. He had one great idea but he wasn't too sure how the person he'd need to rely on would feel.

"I'm just not sure how my daughter is going to react," He says, looking at his best friend before glancing back up at the sky.

"Send a message to the alpha of the Archers, tell him I want to meet, with just us. No weapons, no fighting. I have a plan to save us from more loss, and that will hopefully provide us all with a brighter future."

"As you wish."

Bray watches his friend leave, then sits up in his chair. He was hoping this all went well. Otherwise, his daughter may hate him for the rest of his days. ~~~~ Y/n hums as she goes about patching a tear in her little cousin's pants. Sometimes he gets too excited before shifting, and the end result was his clothes tearing.

"Good morning Y/n, patching clothes again?"

"Morning Lex, yeah he sheepishly brought them to me last night before he went home, so I figured I would work on them before doing the rest of my work for the day."

"Someone needs to charm the pups' clothes so they'll disappear when he starts to shift."

Alexa sits next to her friend, wrapping her arms around her knees as they listen to the birds chirping. The two friends always enjoyed sitting out watching the sunrise together.

"There we go, that’s probably as good as they'll get."

Folding the pants, Y/n sets them off to the side putting her sewing kit with them.

"Did you hear your father call for a council meeting?"

"No, he didn't tell me anything about it. If it’s important I'm sure he'll let me know when he has the chance. With the autumn solstice coming up he's been extra busy lately."

The two women continue chatting as the sun finally fills the sky, shining through the trees. Together they make their way back to the main part of their little village. Time to start the daily chores. ~~~Drawing the curtains closed for privacy, Bray sat back behind his desk. It took three days but he finally had the alpha of the Archers, Damian Priest, sat across from him. After speaking with the council and making his final decision, Bray wanted to be sure the details were all ironed out.

"Hmm this is an interesting idea you've come up with, I wasn't too sure if it was real or not. However, I think it will do both packs well."

Damian sets the papers down in front of him and takes the pen offered by Bray. Signing on the few lines, Damian sets the pen down and shakes hands with the man who would soon be his father-in-law.

"I'll be back in one week's time to collect her."

"All that I ask is that you treat my daughter with respect, and not like a doormat. She's one of a kind and has a little wild spirit."

"Once we are wed, she is mine to do with as I please. But rest assured your daughter will be treated fairly and looked out for."

Bray nods and stands seeing him to the door, and once the other alpha is gone he sighs. Now came the hard part. Telling Y/n she was now betrothed to someone she didn't know. Leaving his den, Bray walks outside shifting into his wolf form. He could hear his daughter laughing down by the stream.

Setting off, he quickly makes his way along the path, coming to a stop when he sees her wading in the water feeding a small family of ducks.

"Hello, father."

Y/n turns to hear footsteps coming closer, she knows her father's wolf anywhere. Saying goodbye to the family of ducks, Y/n leave the stream drying her feet. By the time she's stood back up, Bray is once again in his human form and walking over to sit by her.

"Are you enjoying your day off my sweet blossom?"

"I am thank you again for allowing me some time to myself."

"You're welcome, I'm surprised Erik isn't around. He knows to watch you."

"He just left a few minutes ago to fetch me more feed for the ducks."

Wiping her hands off, Y/n sits next to her father and watches him.

"What's wrong?"

She knew that look, he always wore it when he had news he wasn't looking forward to sharing.

"We need to talk, I need you to listen to what I'm going to say."

"Of course."

Inhaling deeply Bray turns his attention to his daughter, her carefree look and soft smile was something he'd miss most about her.

"You are now betrothed to the alpha of the Archer pack. We just signed the treaty and everything is settled."

"What?"

Staring at her father in disbelief, Y/n was trying to control the overwhelming need to faint.

"We needed a way to end the family feud, and you are the best to make that happen. I know you don't understand now but you will, you have a duty to your pack."

"So you didn't even think to talk to me about it first? This is my future we're talking about, you want me to marry someone I've never met? Someone whose family has been feuding with ours for centuries?” Y/n shook her head, dragging her hand down her face.

“How could you use me as a playing card? I'm sure there were plenty of other options you could have come up with but instead, you practically chose to sell me off!"

"Watch your tone Y/n Y/l/n. I am your father and I will not be spoken to that way. If you would be silent so I could finish explaining this to you."

Bray scowls watching his daughter. He knew she'd be upset, and she had every right to be but this was something that needed to be done.

Y/n sits silently staring at her father, her heart hammering in her chest.

"Now as I was saying, I've spoken with the council and we've spent months trying to find suitable ways to end the feud. None of them had a strong enough probability. I would never just sell you off, you're my daughter, my pride and joy,” Bray shook his head, looking over to meet Y/n’s cold gaze.

“You are able to do something for our pack that nobody else can. I know this is something big, but our families have had enough bloodshed to last ten lifelines. It's time that we ended it and a marriage between the packs is the best possibility for the best outcome. I never would have suggested it if I didn't think it would work."

"Couldn't you find someone else to do it? There are plenty of omegas who would be better suited for this."

"I've already promised you, and it needs to be someone that is right up there with the Alpha. And since Damian still hasn't taken a mate; this was the best chance and opportunity. He's very well off so you will be taken care of, he gave me his word."

Blinking back a rush of tears, Y/n closes her eyes for a moment then looks at her father.

"How long until he comes?"

"He said he'll be back in a week's time, I'm sorry this is hurting you but I promise it's for the best."

Nodding Y/n stands when she sees Erik.

"Please excuse me father, Erik I'm sorry I don't want to feed them anymore."

Quickly shifting Y/n runs from the stream leaving her father and Erik behind. A long low howl is heard ringing through the trees. It was a heartbreaking sound to hear, and anyone in a close radius could hear it.

Bray's heart hurt knowing he was the one who caused his daughter such pain. But he knew she'd be okay, she was a Wyatt, a survivor.~~~Over the next week, Y/n threw herself into everything she could. Spending time with friends, family, and pack members. When Lex found out she was leaving the two cried together for what seemed like a millennium.

Despite being angry with her father, Y/n knew it was best to obey and do what she could to help. These people meant the world to her.

She'd be going to the neighboring city, she'd have no one but her new mate. And honestly, she didn't want anything to do with him either.

However, Y/n knew she couldn't let this keep her down. She was Y/n Wyatt, a wild free spirit and gentle heart just like her mother. Oh, how she missed her so fiercely right now. Her mother would know what to do, and maybe she wouldn't be in this situation at all.

As the days grew closer to her meeting her betrothed, or Damian as his father said he was named. The fear she felt was mixed with an anger she didn't know she possessed. More than once she had to leave the village because she could feel a shift coming. She didn't want to be in a vulnerable state in front of her pack.

Pushing the thoughts from her head, Y/n continues her work. She'd do the rest today and then she needed to finish packing tomorrow. The following day she'd meet Dam-.

"Excuse me miss?"

Looking over her shoulder as she works the ground for a fresh row of vegetables, Y/n spots a tall man. His hair was tied back and a single small braid came down the side of his face.

A lazy grin covered his face as he looked her over.

"Can I help you?"

Y/n stood up proper, this man was a stranger one she'd couldn't quite tell yet if he was safe or not.

"Yeah, I'm looking for the Alpha of the Wyatt pack."

"I can take you there, what is your reasoning?"

"Well, I'm here for my betrothed."

Everything felt like it stopped, Y/n's heart was pounding loudly in her ears as she looked at him.

"You...you're the alpha of the Archers?"

"Indeed, Damian Priest."

Sticking his hand out, Damian smiles.

"And you are?"

"Y/n... please come with me."

Quickly leaving the field, Y/n made her way through the village towards the caves where she knew her father would be. She couldn't believe he was actually here. Not to mention early. Her father told her a week and she still had two days.

Damian walked beside her easily matching paces. He couldn't help but occasionally glance over at the woman, she was stunning. Sure he knew to keep his mind on his betrothed, but he did his best not to let the gaze go past her face.

When they get to the cave Y/n has Damian wait outside, then walks in making her way towards the back. Spotting her father she tamps down the rising mix of feelings and walks over to him.

"Hello, Y/n come have a seat."

"I can't. There's someone here to see you."

"Who?"

"Damian."

She spits out and turns on her heel, quickly leaving the caves with her father right behind her.

"He'll be out in a moment."

Y/n walks away from the caves, ignoring her father's call of her name, breaking into a run. Y/n takes a familiar path through the woods. One that she knew by heart and could walk with her eyes closed. She had walked it so many times with her mother before she died, and whenever Y/n needed to feel close to her this was the way she went.

Coming to a small pond with a little waterfall falling into it Y/n sits on a rock, wrapping her arms around her body. Her head hung as she worked on getting her emotions under control. The foster fills with a light breeze, with the slight scatter and noise from animals soothing her.~~~Bray watched his daughter run off and sighed looking at Damian.

"Sorry about that, she wasn't expecting you for another two days."

"What? Wait, you mean that's your daughter?"

"My one and only. She wasn't very pleased when I told her about the betrothal, or that she'd be leaving but she has accepted it."

"I know I wasn't due for another two days, but there's a bad storm coming tomorrow night meaning it won't be safe to travel far. So I figured I'd come and see if I could collect her now."

"We can talk to her about it. I don't think she'll have an issue with that."

"And where has she gone?"

"To the pond, a place where she and her mother used to spend a lot of time together. Especially right before she died."

"Oh, m’sorry for your loss."

"Thank you, she goes there when things get too overwhelming for her, or she wants to feel the connection to her again."

Damian nods as he follows Bray, he could feel eyes on them as they walked through the small village. He knew the effect he had when walking through his city, it was just one of the things that came with being an alpha. The aura of power and dominance seemed to ooze off him, at least that's what his friend Keith said.

"Do you have someone watching over for you?"

"Yes, I told them I may not be back tonight so I already had everything set up before leaving."

"You're welcome to stay here tonight if you so wish too, Y/n hasn't finished all her packing and I know she'll want to say bye to her people."

Bray sighs as they get to his house, he couldn't believe she was leaving. But he knew this would be good for all of them.

"Y/n will be allowed to return, this whole thing is to bring a truce and peace to our packs. So naturally, she'll need to come home and I've already spoken with my people. You are more than welcome to visit. One thing I do want to make clear up front; If there is anyone from your pack who doesn't follow the treaty will be sorry."

"Same goes for your people as well."

Bray looks at him whilst unlocking the door and letting Damian in first, he knew Erik wouldn't like him being alone with the other Alpha. After all, they didn't know him all that well but if they were going to make this treaty work then they needed to build trust.

"So… Uh, how long do you think she'll be gone?"

"It's hard to say, Y/n knows not to stay out too late. But she's mad at me so she may try, however, I have Erik who can go and get her."

"Who's Erik?"

Damian asks, looking at Bray, he wasn't too sure he was okay with some random guy going after the woman he was here for.

"My best friend. He's her godfather, and before you worry he already has a mate and sees Y/n as nothing more than a daughter. I trust him with my life, and I trust him with Y/n's. Please have a seat."

Bray goes about getting them drinks, and looks out the kitchen window. He really hoped his girl was going to be okay.

~~~

Y/n kicks a rock as she makes her way back towards the village, the sun had just gone down and it was starting to get dark. Thankfully the moon lit her way. She didn't feel safe until she could see all the lights coming from the houses. Waving to a few pack members still out, Y/n walks up to her own house. Rubbing her eyes she pushes the door open quietly, hearing voices in the kitchen she tiptoes to the stairs after removing her shoes. Y/n made sure to stay as silent as she could until she made it to her room.

Opening the door, she gently closes it behind her sighing in relief, figuring she might as well get ready for bed. Walking into her bathroom, Y/n washes her face then gets in the shower. She knew she smelled like the woods and didn't want that clinging to her sheets.

After getting out and drying herself off, Y/n dresses in her favorite pajamas and finishes her night routine. She was hungry, she hadn't eaten since this morning she knew her father must have heard her walking around. Y/n was thankful he was giving her some space; although she knew she'd need to apologize to him for her behavior.

Deciding to wait until they were asleep, Y/n lays in bed with her favorite book and begins reading to pass the time. She had a small light given to her by a demon friend which made her room glow a soft red, so there was no worry about it shining out from under her door.

Glancing at her clock a while later Y/n sees it's well after midnight, so marking the page she was on Y/n creeps from her room. Walking down the stairs she goes into the kitchen and makes herself a sandwich. Grabbing a bottle of water, she turns to return to her room and nearly screams seeing Damian casually leaning against the doorway.

"You scared me, what on earth are you doing?!"

"Well, you didn't give me the chance to properly introduce myself, so I figured now was better a time than any before you darted off again in the morning. The name's Damian Priest."

"Y/n Wyatt...goodnight."

Brushing past him, she starts for the stairs, Damian grabs her wrist pulling her back around, trapping Y/n between his chest and the wall.

"Let go of me."

"Not until we talk. We've barely spoken at all, and we're leaving tomorrow night."

"I can't marry you, I can't be your mate."

"And why not?"

"Because I don't know you!"

Y/n all but seethes through her teeth looking up into his face, the only light was coming from the small night light near the foot of the stairs.

"You're a stranger, someone who's marrying me just for some peace treaty when there are plenty of other ways to deal with the conflict. And the most important reason of all is I don't love you, what kind of marriage could it be if there's no love? One made purely out of convenience is that you get a wife. Someone to look after you, bear your children, and live out the rest of her life as someone else's object. That is not how I want to live my life. But now no thanks to my father and you, I don't have a choice. I can only see this ending badly."

"One thing you need to learn very quickly princesa, is that once something is mine it stays mine. There's no mind-changing, no taking it back. Once your father signed those papers you became my mate, my partner.

You have no proof it won't be the best thing for both of us. If I didn't think it would work I never would have come here."

Damian was doing his best to be understanding, he imagined it wasn't easy having some stranger come into your life and take you away from everything. But it also wasn't that uncommon of a thing to have happened. She needed to give it a chance otherwise it was already doomed.

"Just because he signed paper doesn't mean you own-."

"Enough!"

Y/n quickly shuts her mouth staring up at him swallowing hard.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry I shouldn't have raised my voice at you like that, it was rude. Please go to sleep, and we can talk tomorrow on the ride back. I'll answer any questions you may have. I hope you can forgive me for that outburst."

"Okay. Yeah I should go up now, goodnight."

Quickly making her way up the stairs, Y/n slips into her room closing the door, leaning against it she takes a breath in. The only person to ever snap at her was her dad. Having Damian do so scared her a bit, but a part deeper inside was feeling something else. Something she didn't want to think about right now.

Eating her sandwich she puts the empty plate on her dresser, she'd take it down in the morning. Going into the bathroom she brushes her teeth then gets into bed. Looking out her window she sighs.

"Here's to hoping tomorrow is better."

~~~

Waking the next morning Y/n does her morning routine then begins to finish up packing her belongings. She didn't have to take it all; she'd still need something for when she came to visit. That fact comforted her a little that she'd still have somewhere to go if things really didn't work out.

Taking her plate from the night before, she quietly makes her way downstairs washing it then leaving it to dry. Grabbing a jacket she slips outside and sits on the porch swing. A few of her neighbors were out; getting things ready for the storm that was coming. Pushing the swing into motion, she sits watching them move around. No place could feel home to her like this did, it wouldn't be so bad if she was leaving because she wanted to.

Bray makes his way back home, he knew that he needed to spend as much time with Y/n as he could. He'd been doing that a lot these last few days. Seeing her on the porch swing as he walks up, Bray can't shake the hollow feeling in his heart.

"Mind if I sit with you?"

"No, go ahead."

Getting situated, they begin swinging again both silent for a few minutes.

"Dad, I'm sorry for how I acted yesterday. It's just this whole ordeal has my emotions all over the place. I wasn't expecting him so soon. And the fact I won't be living here makes my heart hurt. Do you not wanna live with me anymore? Did I do something to upset you?"

"What? No, no! Of course you haven't my sweet blossom."

Bray says, wrapping his arm around her shoulders kissing the top of her head.

"I love having you here. The treaty, this union between you and Damian isn't just for the pack. I'm not going to be around forever Y/n, and you never go anywhere. How are you going to find a mate, someone to love and care for you? I know you're not worried about that, but I just want to be sure you're taken care of and loved.

The time I had with your mother were the greatest years of my life, and in that I got the brightest star in my life, you. Y/n without you I don't know how I would have made it when your mother passed.

I know I should have spoken to you first before making this treaty with Damian, but I knew you would say you'd be fine, you have your mother's spirit. I'm sorry for making you feel like I didn't want you around anymore. You're my little blossom and I'll love you for the rest of my life and on."

Listening to her father, Y/n hugged him tightly. She couldn't help the rush of tears that filled her eyes.

"I love you too, dad. I hope I can make you proud."

"You already do, and I want you to know that if for any reason you and Damian decide this isn't for you. You're always, always welcome back with open arms."

That gave her a sense of relief to know she still had that chance to come back; she was sure that Damian would get tired of her. She just needed to wait.

"Oh sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt. I didn't realize anyone was out here."

Damian closes the front door and zips his jacket.

"That's alright. We were just talking so how are you getting back? I know you ran here."

"I have someone bringing a vehicle, so we can load Y/n's stuff onto it. It will hopefully give her a chance to maybe make a friend so she doesn't feel so lonely. Naomi is very open and friendly. I'm hoping it works out."

"Speaking of, have you had the chance to see Alexa?"

"Yes, I spoke with her last night. We said our goodbyes and she gave me a necklace."

"You'll be able to see them again. I have some business that takes me away from the city, so once a week, for a whole day and until the wedding, I'd like you to be here. When I get back I'll pick you up, it'll keep people from trying to target her since she's new."

"Really? I won't have to go that long?"

Damian chuckles seeing her eyes brighten up as she looks between him and her father.

"No, you won't have to wait that long. This isn't a prison sentence, you're welcome to come back here as long as someone accompanies you."

Watching father and daughter embrace, Damian turns his attention away to give them some privacy. He knew it wasn't usual for an alpha to allow his mate to be away from the rest of the pack, but he wasn't a normal alpha. And if this could help make her happy he would do it. Plus it gave them the chance to strengthen the ties between the two packs.

"Will people from here be allowed there?"

"Within reason, if they don't have any direct tie to you I'd rather not. It's best not to provoke or push things too far too fast. My pack already knows about all of this and they're interested. A bit hesitant but I know they just want this feud to end. It has left too many mourning their mates, and pups without parents. Since my father is no longer in charge I make the decisions and this needs to end."

"Yeah, now that a lot of the elders are gone it's time to start anew."

Bray says and gently gives his daughter a squeeze. They sit there for a few minutes talking about her medical files being sent over to Damian's pack caretaker. When a large truck pulls up Damian stands motioning them to follow him.

"Hello Naomi, Jimmy."

"What's up Uce? Is this her?"

Jimmy asks motioning to Y/n, Damian nods and rolls his eyes as the husband and wife introduce themselves with enthusiasm.

"We were so excited to hear Damian was finally getting a mate. He deserves to be happy and maybe now we'll get a break from his constant bitching during rutting season,"

Jimmy whispers the last part so only Naomi and Y/n could hear.

"Babe shut up and leave this girl alone, go help Damian get all her stuff."

Naomi smacks his arm and turns her attention back to Y/n.

"Please forgive my husband who more often than not speaks before thinking. Welcome to the pack."

Y/n smiles willing her heated face to subside as she shakes hands with the woman before her.

"That's alright, and thank you very much."

The two women go off to the bathroom to pack Y/n's hygiene and toiletry bag. By late afternoon everything that was packed, goodbyes were said. They leave Y/n a moment with her father alone, Naomi and Jimmy get settled in their seats while Damian waits off to the side. When they finally parted and Bray shook Damian's hand he promised to take care of her, then held open Y/n's door.

"Time to start a new adventure."
