Mate to a king

Bloom.

I woke up the next morning to have the sun streaming down onto my face. I had a pain in my neck from yesterday,

Flashback.

"I now pronounce you queen." The former king, James fathers voice boomed. Now was time for James to mark me.

 You see, if the king hadn't marked his mate earlier it had to be done during coronation.

Flashback over.

So that's why it hurts so much. James had to take me straight to bed as I was feeling sleepy from the after effects.

With the coronation over, today was the day I was going to meet his parents.

Beside me, I felt around the bed to find James gone, in his place was a note.

Hey Bloom,

I am just getting everything with my parents ready. I will be back before you know it.

Oh, so that's where he went.

I decided to get out of bed to get ready.

I took a fairly short shower before changing into a short, frilled black dress. Paired with brown lace up boots that come to just below my knees.

Walking down the stairs and into the kitchen, I grabbed an apple before walking outside.
