"Gibbons, yes, please tell the entire staff to get everything ready for tonight," The Dowager Queen spoke as she watched her faithful servant do her bidding. 'Sire, your mother is back', Keegan mind-linked The King. 'It looks like she's preparing for some kind of party," 'She what?' Killian mind-linked back as he grabbed onto my arm without saying a word. 'I just sent her off not three days ago,' "What's wrong?" I asked Killian as I laid down the pair of white shoes I had been looking at. "My Mother is back, and it seems that she is preparing for a party. I apologize my love but we need to go, I can not and will not tolerate her doing this," His pleading crystal blue eyes looked like orbs holding in the bluest of seas that were controlling everything not to wage war. "Do we know about what kind of party?" I asked forcing a smile. "Maybe it will be a good distraction from the upcoming ceremonies, fittings, and everything else," "No, I know my mother, she doesn't do anything witho
"My Mother, your Dowager Queen has invited you all here, to show off your daughters to me," Killian yelled out as he kept his eyes yellow. "I have a mate, Countess Euphemia Winters, she is of noble blood through her father's side, Viscount Conrad Booth of Billings," He let his eyes go back to their light blue color as he pulled me close. "Let it be known since The Queen Mother thought to have almost all the royals in one place, I shall announce to the rest through mind-link. This is my mate, my future bride, and your future Luna, none shall take her place, you've come under false pretenses and my mother shall suffer the consequences. From now until forever none shall take orders from Constance Stein English, as I can not take her titles away because she is a dowager," The King held his head up as his mother came running over toward him. "Killian, what are you doing?" Constance held onto her son's arms as she began to shake him. "I just wanted to hold a quaint gathering for... for your
"You gave us such short notice to do this royal wedding, I don't know how we will get everything done in time," Master Monet said as he looked up to The King, sewing together his royal garment as he stood on a wooden stool. He watched as Killian looked down and raised an eyebrow. "But you have hired the best in the business, Master Emiliano Monet and Mistress Bernadette Romano will get anything done. You know we are Italian and French, we are the best of both worlds," He laughed."I don't know, will you tell me?" I spoke out as I held my arms up while Mistress Romano sewed the side of my pearl-white dress closed."If it is what you wish," Emiliano rang out as he took the safety pins from his mouth. "My father is Marquis Jules Monet of St. Germaine, he had a love of Italy. As a boy, he developed a friendship with a pen pal Duca Maximo Romano of Lake Gardens, so as they got older my father brought his twin sister, Oceane, for a visit," He stood up as he moved onto Killian's cream-colore
"She did what?!" Cami screeched as she sat in the chair next to me."Yeah, and Killian had her evaluated by a doctor and sent to a mental institution," I told my best friends as we sat in chairs while Master Emiliano and Mistress Bernadette did our hair."I think I would have done far worse," Evelyn piped up as she side-eyed me. "To think that she thought the King was going to choose her to be his mate because he played games with her as a child," "She is disturbed I just hope she can get the help she needs," I uttered as I watched Bernadette straighten my hair."You know that Killian had invitations sent out to all the packs?" Cami sipped her iced tea as she looked over at me."To all the Alphas, I know," I spoke up as I grabbed a glass of tea from one of the maids."No, to everyone who wanted to see their King get married," Cami retorted as she squeezed a wedge of lemon into her drink."Yes, have you heard about Jayla Stewart?" Evelyn asked as she started to flip through the pages
"Hello?" I answered the phone as I opened the back door. "Camilla?""How are you Phemie?" Cami rang out on the other end. "Are we still on for this weekend?""Of course, I can not wait to see you and the kids," I beamed making my way to the back patio, Killian had built shortly after we married."Yes, Luis is going crazy about seeing your twins, and a wonder that we are both pregnant at the same time, what luck," Cami laughed as she grabbed her son in her arms. "And Evelyn is coming to, she called right before you did," I paused as I moved the phone away from my ear. "Amber Nykole and Adrian Nathan stop running around before you both fall!" I yelled to my twins as I watched them chase each other. "These kids," I giggled watching my husband carrying our one-year-old in his arms."My sweet Brynn Leigh, go on and have fun with your siblings," Killian whispered sweetly into the curly blonde-haired little girl's ear as she giggled and fell. "How are my loves doing?""Camilla and Evelyn ar
"Euphemia, did you hear me?" Shouted my best friend, Camilla, as she moved her dark brunette hair out of her face. "No, sorry!" I whisper-shouted as I clutched my binder to my chest while moving around the crowd to our lockers. Camilla and I have been best friends since elementary school, we have been each other's rock. Especially, when her father passed away last year, and my mother ran away with the Alpha of another pack. "Girls! Did you not hear me?" Evelyn lightly punched my shoulder as I reached the lockers with her coming from behind me. "What's going on?" I asked in confusion as I turned the knob to my locker. "Oh, please, like you didn't hear Karter Jenkins was nominated for homecoming king," Evelyn giggled as she shut my locker just as I slipped my book inside. Evelyn moved here six years ago, and we all became instant friends. She twisted her shoulder-length bright red hair between her fingers as she eyed me up and down. "That's what I said!" Cami playfully slapped Evel
As I waited by the double doors to the entry of the school I saw Karter's beat-up old red truck his grandfather left him. As he drove in and headed to where I was standing I caught the ending of his conversation. "Mom, Jayla is all over me. No, I can't, I won't. Because I am, Bye Mom," He quickly hung up the phone and stuffed it into his jean pocket as he noticed me standing uneasy. "Good morning, Euphemia," He grinned, that smile could make any girl weak in the knees and it did. "Phemie," I said quietly, barely intelligible unless you had wolf ears. "Pardon?" He asked, even though I know he could hear. He rounded a car and made his way to my side extending his arm for me to take. "You can call me Phemie," I managed to choke out, staring at his arm and then back up into those lovely dark brown eyes. "Sure, Phemie, this is the part where you take my arm, and we walk into school together. Don't worry, I won't bite... hard," He winked as he took my hand, draped it over his arm and we
"Phemie, thanks again for coming over last night," Cami put her hand on my shoulder as we made our way through the crowd of the long hallway. "Sorry about my brothers, I never knew how bad they both liked you until they started serenading you," Her big brown eyes got expansive as the corner to one side of her mouth came down in pure embarrassment. "Yeah, I'm just glad your mom came in with a broom when she did," I laughed remembering the sight of Mrs. Luciana hitting both boys over the head until they left the room. "Phemie, hey wait up!" Came the voice I loved hearing, the soothing way my name rolled off his tongue was like magic. "Hey, I was looking for you at the doors, I wanted us to walk into school together every day," He jogged over as he grabbed up my arm snaking his through his. "So, I'll walk you to your locker and I'd like to meet up for lunch again if that's cool?" He asked as we turned the corner, everyone's eyes were upon us and I could guess what they were thinking. Wh

"Well, well, well hello chicken," Davina taunted as she entered the sitting room. "What?" I questioned as I sat on the small chair in the almost empty room, that Killian had cleaned out the night before. "It is not what, you will greet me properly," Davina gritted her teeth and pushed her head forward as she expanded her eyes. "Hello, Davina," I said with a hint of sarcasm as I tried not to roll my eyes. "No," She growled as she bared her canine teeth. "You do not and will not address by my name, it is Baroness Wakefield or my lady or your Grace," "Hello Baroness Wakefield," I stated plainly. "I am of higher rank than you, you will stand and curtsy when you address me, do it again," The Baroness smiled smugly as she walked around my chair. "Hello Baroness Wakefield," I rose from my chair and curtsied. I was so over this, and where was Killian he said he would just be a minute, but it feels like forever. I really hope I don't have to spend all day with this infuriating woman. "P
"Spill it," Killian spoke out as I grabbed onto his arm. "Sire, they would not tell me, they wish to call a meeting with you tonight if you'll be in agreeance," Keegan stated as stood with his arms behind his back. "Set it," Killian bellowed as he watched his mother through the window get into the other limo and head down the driveway. "I'm glad Mother took her holiday," "Are you alright?" I asked as I squeezed Killian's hand, looking up at his crystal blue eyes. "Oh course my love, come, let's go see your room," Killian smiled as he led me up the stairs. "This is the Queen's room," "The Queen's room?" I questioned tilting my head to the side. "Yes, it is a royal custom, that the sovereigns have separate rooms," The King uttered as he cleared his throat. "But my room, is right through here," He pushed open a secret panel in the wall that lead to a small hallway and into another bedroom. "Wow, any more secret passageways?" I chuckled as I walked into his room to the large wooden
"Killian where were you?!" Demanded Constance as she put her hand on the banister while walking down the staircase. "My sources told me that you went to a werewolf pack, what in the Goddess's name do you think you're doing there?!" "Mother, I do not have to answer to you, in case you have forgotten," Killian said as he walked into the mansion with his three men in tow. "Why is he in my house?!" The King's mother yelled as she reached the bottom step. "I remember stating I did not want sight of that bastard," "Mother!" The King screamed as he walked toward his mother. "In case you have forgotten he is my half-brother, and my Beta but you seem to have forgotten your place. Maybe it's time you take a leave to the summer house in Waywood, it will give me and my fiancee some alone time," "That low-born peasant will not step foot back inside this castle, and you two will not be getting married. I have the council already on the matter," The Dowager Queen smiled as she moved past Killian
"This place is not what I expected," Riley spoke up as he made his way into the limo. "What were you expecting?" Killian asked as he stood by the car door. "Phemie did not even know about the royal family, of course, this place wouldn't either," "I did not know it was this bad, we have to see what other packs have forgotten the royals," Riley retorted as he watched everyone get into the vehicle. "We are going to the pack's council," "Yes, and my love, I would like you to attend, all should be aware that you are the soon-to-be Queen," Killian whispered in my ear as he grabbed my waist pulling me into him. "The pack's council, are we expecting them to know who you are?" Keegan laughed as he slapped Killian's knee. "Look's like we will find out soon," Ryder smiled as he inched toward the door waiting for the driver to open it. "Good afternoon, your Majesty," Bowed a young auburn-haired man as he opened the double doors to the building. "I'd like to welcome you to The Moon Light Pack
