Adriana’s Point of View
The day after my coronation, we were again setting up for another one. This time, Daemon was to be crowned my Royal Alpha Consort. As my Consort, he would be ruling over the combined Royal Pack, as well as Rikard and Brandon's packs.
Grant and Roger had only been placed as temporary Alphas. Although, Daemon and I could change that ruling and make it permanent. At this stage, we wouldn't, as neither of them had any experience leading packs.
During Daemon's coronation, it was decided that we would announce the combination of the Royal Pack and Daemon's dominion over the remaining two packs. Grant, Roger and the Council were behind this, as they felt it was essential to cement the power of the Monarchy in the other Alpha's mind.
"Are you sure this is what you want?"
Adriana’s Point of ViewI stood at the centre of the clearing, attempting to maintain as regal an air as possible. As Daemon walked towards me, we shared a knowing glance, a silent reassurance that everything would unfold as planned. Together, we began the altered and no longer age-old oath, with Daemon repeating the words that bound him to me as not only my Royal Consort but as my Alpha."Are you ready?" I mind-linked him.Nodding, Daemon began his oath of fealty to me."I, Daemon, Alpha of the Black Wolf Pack, solemnly pledge my unwavering loyalty and devotion to you, my Queen, Adriana. As your Royal Alpha Consort, I stand by your side as your steadfast partner, ready to serve, protect, and uphold the honour of our pack and realm. I vow to cherish and support you, to share in both tri
Adriana’s Point of View After the coronation of the Royal Consort, Daemon and I retired for the evening. I held him close to me as I caressed his back, my fingers trailing down the curve of his spine to the roundness of his bottom. Daemon's hands were on my back, stroking and caressing, but his eyes were closed, and he seemed lost in thought. I was lost, too, thinking about how wonderful this night had been. "A penny for your thoughts?" I asked. "Only if you share yours," he laughed. "I just wonder if we will have to battle Alphas as well as Kree," Daemon said. "You are wondering if they will accept you as their ultimate Alpha?" I asked. "Yes." "I was wondering the same thing. I suppose that only time will tell. Hell, I am not even sure if they will accept me as Queen. If it wasn't for the Council, they probably wouldn't. However, we shouldn't let it disturb our night." "You're right. Adriana," he said softly, "I love you so much." His eyes opened, and they seemed to glow wit
Adriana’s Point of ViewAfter a run in the forest together for the first time as Lycan, Daemon, and I shifted back to human form as we neared Perry and Tyler."Your majesties," gushed Perry as he bowed to us."I guess they are now," remarked Tyler. "So how is this going to work? Do I still call you Alpha?""I have no idea. We will make it up as we go along," shrugged Daemon."Let us get back inside and discuss this in your home office," said Perry.We walked back into the house with the Royal Guard following us. They would continue to guard the perimeter around the house, as they always did. Now that Daemon was Lycan, I wondered whether they would have to go through a blood oath to him. I was sur
Adriana’s Point of View It took a few more days for all the Alphas and Council members to finally leave. The only Council member remaining was Sebastian, and he would be staying here long term. Now that the packhouse was empty, the builders moved back in, in force, and renovating began in earnest. Daemon's construction company was enormous, so the original team of builders continued renovating the old packhouse. Another was constructing chalet-style cabins to house all the Royal Guards and potential family members. These were situated next to our current house. We decided this would definitely be our permanent home as it was much larger than the old packhouse and frankly looked more regal. A third team was building guest houses since it was likely that we would have many visitors. These were situated closer to the packhouse but still
Adriana’s Point of ViewIt was three months since Daemon was recognised as King. During that time, we had continued to train hard. Adam and Daemon were worried about the Red Devil and Half-Moon packs, but Adam had a few ideas about what we could do about it. He met with Delilah and Sebastian to discuss his ideas.The Council of Alphas were cooperating with the witch's Council to investigate where Kree might possibly be hiding. Despite working tirelessly, their efforts seemed to be in vain as Kree's trail grew cold. They even consulted seers to see if she could be found. The answers were all the same - Kree would attack the Royal Pack within the next six months, and the outcome could not be determined.Delilah, Pania, and Amiria continued their work in fortifying the pack boundaries, ensuring that not even the slightest hint of Kree
Daemon’s Point of ViewFor the next few weeks after the attack, the two rogues Wilson and Carlisle had captured were interrogated. I had promised Adriana that we would not torture them, but we weren't going to treat them like guests. They would answer my questions truthfully, or I would use my aura to force them.Before questioning the rogues, Amiria cast a spell that would conceal the rogues as if they had died. That way, Kree could not sense that they were still alive. I was dubious as to whether this would work, but we needed the information, so I went along with it.During questioning, I found out something interesting about my Lycan."I don't know where Kree is," one of the rogues flippantly answered.For some reason, I knew he was lyin
Daemon's Point of ViewToday's meeting was in our new offices at the packhouse. Since moving into our new house on what was the Silver Wolf Pack lands, the overall plans for the original packhouse had changed. All of our offices and a new meeting room were downstairs, with guest quarters on the top two levels.Adriana, Perry, Tyler, Charlotte, Adam, and Delilah were discussing how well the interpack training was going when one of the guards at the gate mind-linked me."We appear to have visitors. I think we should all go and meet them," I explained to the team. "They are asking for Adriana and I, and they are not wolves.""If they are not wolves, what are they?" Adriana asked, to which the rest of the group echoed their curiosity."The guards didn
Tyler's Point of View When I walked down to the gate, I felt something strange. My wolf, Echo, was jumping around in my subconscious and was either agitated or excited. I couldn't tell. "What is wrong?" I asked him. "Something's happening! Something important! Something!" Some help he was. I decided to ignore Echo and concentrate on what was happening. It was difficult even to focus on that because there was this amazing smell. I couldn't help but sniff the air, setting Echo off again. Daemon seemed to notice how unfocused I was, and he definitely saw me sniffing the air. "Is there a problem?" he asked. I shook my head, partly to dispel Echo's
