EVANGELINE.

A FEW WEEKS LATER…

“Thank you, your majesty.” Someone says as I steady them from tripping over their own feet.

We’ve officially hosted the coronation ball for both the Vampire King and his Queen and the Alpha Queen and her Alpha King. A combined coronation and one that showed the beginning of unity between the two species.

The night had gone well, and both sides had been cordial enough. It had taken place at the Moon Stone Pack, but we have begun building a castle, halfway between both territories which will be used for state affairs.

Now, I think I’m ready to turn in for the night. I have talked to many and danced the night away. I gather up the white net skirt to my glittering dress as I step out into the warm night.

“Alpha Queen Evangeline.”

I turn to see Sinclair leaning against a pillar, alone. He’s dressed in a tux, hands in his pocket as he approaches me.

“Alpha Sinclair.” I say formally. I noticed there was no sight of Celia tonight. I guess she wouldn’t want to come to my coronation, anyway.

He lowers his head. “I wanted to apologise properly and genuinely, for everything I have done in the past.” He says.

Are we doing this again? I’m about to speak when he speaks again.

“Please, just hear me out.”

I give a polite nod as I smooth the fabric of m y dress. My hair is pinned up, and a crown adorns my head. One that I can’t wait to take off and have Zed’s f*ingers running through my hair instead.

I’m wearing nude coloured gloves that are covered in jewels, they match the bodice of my dress. Over my arms is draped the same white net fabric that covers my dress from the knee down.

I allow him this chance, waiting patiently as he continues.

“I did a lot of wrong in my life. I was selfish and acted spoiled, and in turn, I hurt you. I do apologise for that, and I want to make sure that I uphold the same reputation of the Silver Mountain Pack that Dad has always kept. He’s there to guide me and going forward, I will listen to him. For with age, there’s wisdom.”

“That is true.” I reply, smiling slightly.

Alpha Aeron is on the mend even though he will always need a walking stick for support.

Sinclair’s words surprise me, but I can sense the sincerity in them. “I’m also… divorcing Celia. She isn’t the right person to become the Luna of our pack.”

“Oh?”
