Drama
The Lycan King and His Mysterious Luna Chapter 114
My breathing is coming out erratically as I stand for the second time in front of the throne room doors. Taking a few deep breaths, I managed to calm my breathing. I have no idea why I’m so nervous about this but I am. Alex’s mother went over the entire ceremony with me and we even had a practice run, yet I am still nervous. Mostly I’m worried that I’ll trip or not speak when I am supposed to and make Alex look bad. The kingdom is still a bit uneasy so the last thing that needs to happen is their future Queen looking like she’s not worthy.
There are guards placed around me but not too close since Alex said he was not taking any chances this time. He wasn’t going to get any argument from me, though I think that kidnapping me would be impossible now with both of us having access to our powers. I shudder thinking about what happened the last time, but then the music starts to play and pulls me from my thoughts. The music is my signal to get ready to start walking. My father comes to stand on my right and my mother stands on my left just as the doors are pushed open.
Everyone stood as my parents, and I walked into the room. All the people seemed to have smiles on their faces as we passed the aisles, but my focus was on the handsome man sitting on the throne. He looked so sexy in his royal robes, and he had a big smile on his face instead of the sexy smirk that was usually reserved only for me. My breath caught in my throat for a moment and I didn’t realize that I had stopped walking until I heard Alex in my head asking if I was alright. I simply smiled and took a deep breath before telling him that I was great. Once I’d reached the steps that led up to the throne, my mother and father each kissed one of my cheeks before heading to their seats next to the former king and queen. A guard came down to stand next to me and I placed my hand in his before he led me up the steps to stand in front of my mate.
A man came from my left after the guard moved off to my right and he began speaking to everyone. The ceremony was kind of like a marriage, only Alex stayed seated in his chair on the throne since he was already king. After the man finished addressing the audience he stood in front of me and spoke directly to me.
“Freya Karlotta Carera, do you promise as Luna and Queen to put the kingdom’s needs ahead of your own, to protect them, and to take care of them as a mother would her own child?”
“Yes, I promise.”
“Do you also promise, to take care of our king, to be by his side as his equal, to honor him and never forsake him, to stand by him when he’s right and correct him when he’s wrong for as long as you are both on the throne?”
“Yes, I promise. I also promise to love him forever.” I added the last part, and it made a few people laugh including Alex, but the holy man had a frown on his face for being interrupted.
The vows to everyone are now complete and another man comes next to the officiator and hands him a scepter and a ceremonial knife each on their own pillow. He takes the ceremonial knife in his hand first and gestures for me to give him my hand. I give him my right hand and he says some words in a language I don’t understand and then slices down the middle of my palm. I’ve been cut many times, and it would hurt for a second but this blade stings and burns a little but soon fades away. “What is it Freya?” I hear Alex mind link me.
“That cut from that blade stung is all. It faded away quickly. No worries. It just felt weird.” I say back to him.
My blood was dripped from the tip of the blade into a little chalice that I hadn’t seen a minute ago. When did that happen? Probably while I was talking to Alex. I have to pay attention, so I don’t miss a part of the ceremony. After he dripped my blood into the cup, Alex stood up and made his way to stand in front of me and the officiator grabs his left hand and says the same words again before slicing into Alex’s hand. It doesn’t seem to bother him at all but then again, he is Goddess Blessed. The man drips his blood into the chalice as well and then raises it into the air in front of the congregation and asks if there is anyone that objects to me becoming their Luna Queen. We waited for a moment to see if anyone would reject it and when no one did, I let out a breath that I did not know I was even holding.
We both drank from the cup, me first and then Alex since he is the one binding me with the wolves and Lycans. Once he was done a surge of energy flowed through me and I could hear and feel every wolf and Lycan in the Royal Pack. The noise was overwhelming at first but after a minute I was able to get my bearings and block out everyone before giving myself an unwanted headache. When I looked at Alex, he was smiling at me with those gorgeous grey eyes of his and I smiled back.
“I now am pleased to present to you Freya Karlotta Cabrera Trudeaux, your Luna Queen!” The man shouted and the room instantly erupted in cheers, howling, and applause. Alex grabbed me and kissed me passionately and the crowd became even louder if that’s even possible.
