She was tired, and confused, and maybe even a bit woozy at this point-- but she knew what marriage was. It signified love between two people. She did not love Reek-- not in the way she pieced together with marriage. She almost said no, right there. Almost shook her head and wheeled out of the den as fast her her tired legs could take her. But somehow, she couldn't.

To say no to her alpha-- to let him down... she couldn't do it. Marriage wouldn't be bad. It just meant others thought you were in love-- she didn't need to be in love with him to do that. She could do it, for his sake. If it made him happy she would do it.

Still, her mind traveled to Vuk... she would understand? Right? Reek asked her-- she couldn't say no when he'd asked so nicely. And-- take a name. She'd never had a name besides her first one. Nothing to identify her as-- she was never so important to take one. 

So, in a groggy haze, she nods her head, his breath hot against her neck. "Yeah," she mutters softly. She nuzzles into his chest briefly, and falls asleep. Out like a light-- a pitiful, confused, light.
