Chapter 185 A New Era

Ann smiled tightly as Alpha Felix surveyed the chaotic scene behind her with interest. He was a good-looking man, with stern yet handsome features and powerfully built. His Luna stood next to him, a welcoming and friendly face surrounded by a ma*s*s of black, messy curls that gave her a slightly wild look as she eyed the furor warily.

“My apologies, I had hoped to have this resolved before you arrived.” Ann offered with a small smile. Felix chuckled and waved his hand dismissively.

You have acted as befits the royal line, there is o need for apologies.” He said before crossing his arm across his chest and bowing respectfully, his wife and the men behind him following his example.

“It is a pleasure to be here your grace, regardless of circumstances. Thank you for receiving us.” He continued as he stood upright and beamed widely as he gestured to his wife, “This is Aoife, the light of my life, my very reason for breathing, and also my Luna.”

Aoife rolled her eyes and snorted, blushing heavily. “Really Felix? In front of royalty?” she murmured with the barest trace of irritation in her voice as she smiled apologetically at Ann.

‘Maeve… I actually have no words for you. You want to turn our diplomatic guests into pets… what the actual f”k is wrong with you?’ Ann snapped incredulously.

‘But look how tiny she is! I bet their pups are going to be adorable… a big strong Alpha like that with teeny little pups between them…’
