Valens –

“You betrayed me,” I muttered, examining my claws.

“I know. I am -” I pulled her from the ground before she completed her sentence.

“Look me in the eye,” I said when she stood. She was one of the few people on earth who didn’t shy away from looking me in the eye but at that moment, she could not.

“Valens –

“Look at me.” An Alpha’s command. Looking at her made me boil from inside. She disgusted me but I was still her Alpha and she could not disobey my command.

“I – I am really sorry, Vee – She started to cry when I wrapped my hands around her neck. My claws poked into her skin.

She grabbed my hands, her eyes still fixed on mine. I would like to punish her, drag out her punishment, but I could not stand to think of her walking the same earth I did. She played me for a fool. She lied to me, took a life and endangered my mate. She belittled Aysel and I couldn’t help but feel as if I encouraged it.

Valens- Alpha – Please –

“Rest well.” I tightened my grip on her neck, watching b***d coat my hands from the punctures I made in her neck.

“I-” Her eyes bulged, her fingers tore my skin as she fought to be free but I held on.

It felt like hours before she went limp but I held on still. For the first time in my long years, taking a life hurt. My heart beat faster as I let her fall into the grave beside me, my hand coated in her b***d.

“Goodbye.” I poured the first bit of sand on her Corpse, washing my hands as I walked out of the graveyard after instructing some men to cover her grave. She didn’t deserve to be buried considering her sin but it was my final gift to her.

From there, I had to witness a hanging. I met Aysel in front of the crowd. Jabari had pronounced the sentence already and Skylar and her father were about to be executed. I came to stand beside my mate. She wrapped her hand around me once I arrived.

“How do you feel?” I asked her.

“I don’t – I don’t feel good,” she admitted. I hadn’t expected her to. Not a lot of people would come out to witness something like this. Most people around were those that had travelled with me and less than ten people from Redville pack.

“If you don’t want to be here, we can leave.” I took her hand while she hid her face in my jacket. The oracle was saying prayers for the criminals while my mate shook in my arms.

“I thought – I thought I would be satisfied to see their end.”

“You are not?” I asked her.

I-I feel relieved that they will no longer bother me but _” She looked around, her eyes gravitating to the oracle and her ritual. “Please take me away from this place.” I did not need to be asked twice. I grabbed her hand and people made way as we left.

“Aysel!” A wretched voice screamed. We both turned on instinct. Skylar looked dead already, her eyes lifeless and head hanging at an odd angle. Killing your mate by accident would do that to you. She had nothing to live for but Zavier – he looked frantic. His eyes dashed around the place as he tried to find a means out but there was none.

“Keep walking,” I said to my mate, pulling her forward. She reluctantly turned her back on the scene and proceeded to walk away. She could not see them but she could here them. Zavier screamed her name, begging.

“Aysel! Don’t! Don’t turn your back! I spared you!

Spare my daughter!” His screams were horrible and I knew they affected my mate by the way she stumbled while walking.

She broke into a sprint. I followed.

She ran and ran. For over thirty minutes, she was running, I kept pace with her, wanting to comfort her but I did not know how to, considering I had Clover’s b***d on my hands. I needed to run too. From the guilt that came with this responsibility. So we ran.

We stopped at a deserted forest. My mate leaned into a rotten tree, her eyes swollen from crying.

“I can’t – I can’t stay here anymore,” she wheezed.

“Give me one week. I will wrap everything up and then, I can take you home.” She looked up at me in surprise.

You – You still want to take me to the Alpha Pack?” I didn’t understand why she sounded stunned. “I – You don’t hate me?” My eyes widened. Where had she gotten such an idea-

Ah!

“No, Aysel, I love you.” As if it was possible to hate my savior. It didn’t matter who her mother was. Who she was had become more important to me.

“You – She teared up again. “I love you, too.”

She flung herself at me and I caught her, pulling her into a k!ss. Those words – they were melody to my soul.

“… I now crown you, Alpha Valens Thomas Castillo I, the king of werewolves.” The temple reverberated with applause as the oracle crowned Valens. She placed the crown on his head, took a step back, and curtsied. Applauses followed after that and I was grinning from ear to ear.

I looked at the smaller crown which had been sitting beside the king’s when the oracle stepped towards me.I had a smaller one that was am replica of it. It was the same one Valens’ mother wore on the day she died. He’d let me wear it on our Mating Ceremony and it meant everything to me.

I didn’t know it then but him giving me that clown was the best way to let me know that he had let go of his past. He had left the path of vengeance and chosen to look forward to a future with me. He let me, a daughter of a traitor from a line of traitors, wear the crown his beloved mother wore in her final hours and he was able to smile and laugh with me as I wore that crown.

“Do you, Luna Aysel Valens-Castillo, swear before the goddess and her people to commit to the service of our kind, to follow the part the goddess has made and support the king in carrying out his duties?” The oracle asked, standing before me.

“I Swear to do all these by the power of the goddess,” I answered after I made the mistake of nodding to her question. I had repeated those words for months but nervousness almost had me mixing them up.

The oracle got out a small bowl and held it out to me. Knowing what to do, I slashed my right palm with a sharp stone I brought with me to the coronation. My b***d dripped into the bowl, mixing with Valens’ and that of the kings and queens who had reigned before us. The oracle chanted quick words underneath her breath until my b***d stopped flowing, the cut healing over.

She put down the bowl and picked up the crown r’d been admiring. “The goddess has given me the authority and now I crown you -” She stopped as Valens stood from his seat beside me.

I’ll do that.” He took the crown from the oracle and I saw her l!p twitch as she stepped aside with a bow.

“Go daddy!” A voice shouted from the crowd.

“Yeah!” Another answered. The audience laughed while my mate and I shared secret smiles.

“I now crown you, Aysel Valens-Castillo, my queen.” He placed the crown on my head, took a step back, and grinned, admiring his work. He went back to his throne with a beaming smile on his face. The oracle came forward and gave me my first curtsy before she turned to the crowd.

Wolves, your monarch!” Little girls in the room jumped up and threw flowers into the air. The crowd stood after them, clapping and cheering.

I stood from my seat and walked to stand before my mate, dipping into a curtsy.

Your Majesty.” He had a big grin on his face as he nodded in acknowledgment. The cheers rose to an almost deafening noise as I went back to my seat.

Valens and I sat there as one after the other, the people stood to pay their respect to their new monarchs, until it was the kids left. Two kids walked up to us, barely concealing their giggles as they approached.

“You look very pretty today, mommy,” the little boy said, walking past his father and forgetting to pay his respect.

“Thank you, baby, but you forgot to pay your respect to your father.” My cheeks hurt from how hard I was grinning. Goddess, I had never been this happy before.

“Oh-oh!” The boy rang back to the king’s throne and gave a cute little bow, shouting his greetings and running to do the same to me before the king had time to acknowledge.

The girl following behind him was a lot more composed than he was. She gave a proper curtsy to the king, waited for a nod before proceeding to do the same to me before grabbing her brother who was still lingering around, and taking him back to their seat.

More kids followed after them and they were a lot more formal. Then there were just two left.

We all watched as they walked forward, stopping at a point to wave at a blonde girl and her mate.

In fact, one of them tried to climb on the big man but he pointed out Valens and I, waiting for the last people to greet us before Valens’ big speech.

The children came running after that.

One of them stopped between Valens’ and I’s thrones, bowing a little before he jumped into Valens’ arms.

“I suppose we are to share that bow, huh?” I turned to Valens with a laugh. His sister did not have a curtsy in her at that point. She climbed into my la*p and immediately went for the crown on my head. Her brother was doing the same thing to my mate. Their nanny quickly wrestled them away.

After the ceremony and Valens’ speech, we had a reception filled with cake and more Alphas than I had ever seen in one place.

“Should I call you Luna Aysel now or Queen Aysel?” I turned to see Levana.

You made it!”I pulled her into a hug. I hadn’t expected her to come considering how heavy she was. “Wow, pregnancy looks good on you,” I said.

“Not as good as it does on you, though.” She nudged me with a grin.

“What do you mean?” I laughed. “I am not pregnant!” I already had four kids running around. I could use a break.

When Valens said he would give me twins, he forgot to mention how many. I had two sets now and they certainly didn’t take after me because I was a quiet kid.

You are not? But you have the same scent that you had during your last pregnancy. Oh no, I can’t believe I just assumed that. I am so sorry.”

she rushed off before I said anything.

I sniffed myself but I could not tell if my scent had changed. The oldest twins just turned seven and the youngest was three. I was pregnant again?

Yikes.

I walked up to Octavia and Celeste while they spoke animatedly. ctavia had a large piece of cake on a plate. I was happy to see her eating well these days. She had to go away for a while to get treated and I was happy she was now doing well.

“The queen.” Celeste curtsied as I approached them. I giggled at how awkward she looked.

“Have you seen my mate?” She asked, looking around the room. “He had to take Lucian to the bathroom but he hasn’t been back in ten minutes.”

Celeste and Jabari’s story was not mine to tell.

They had too many ups and downs. I hated to remember how broken she had been a few years ago after her parents ended their lives in the dungeons. I almost had to kidnap her from Redville to the Alpha Pack and force her to enroll in college when I did. Doing something she loved helped as much as being close to her mate did.

The reception went on till late in the evening, By the time I got back to my room, my back and feet were sore. I was dozing off when Valens entered the room and joined me in bed.

“My queen,” he whispered, turning on his side to face me. “Every day, you amaze me with how awesome you are.”

“Well, what can I say? One of us has to be awesome.” He laughed out loud at that.

He turned on his back, the two of us staring at the ceiling in our room, silently sifting through the events of the day.

“Has my scent changed again?” I asked, remembering Levana’s words.

“A bit. You are stressed. After all this He paused, his mouth forming an ‘0’.”Are you –

“Possibly,” I answered, giggling at the look on his face.

“All hail Queen Valencia!” A child shouted from outside our door before he could speak.

The door burst open to reveal a little girl doing a slow, dignified walk into the room, her brother holding the door open. The girl paused halfway into the room, deciding she wouldn’t be queen anymore.

You are the boy. You are the king!” She ran back Ito hold the door but the boy would not let go.

“No, you are older. You are the queen!” The boy protested. In three, two, one She zapped him.

The fun and frustrating part about having kids with magic was getting them to stop fitting. The first spell Valencia learnt was an electrocution spell and ever since she learnt it two years ago,

I could no longer count how many times she used it on her brother. In turn, her brother had learnt to light her hair on fire.

“The boy succeeds his father!” Valencia yelled.

Of all my kids, she was the only one with the courtesy to look like me. The rest copied and pasted their father’s looks.

“Either one of you can succeed me, Vee,” Valens said to the kids. I respective of gender or age.”

Valens did not have an heir yet seeing as they were just seven years old. Valencia was older and displayed more leadership qualities at their age but we had not considered an heir yet.

“But that hasn’t happened in the history of the monarchy. The male child succeeds his father,” Valencia repeated.

“I am the king now. I make the rules,” he grinned at them as they climbed into bed. Valencia launched a lecture on how difficult it would be to change the rules. Five minutes later, their younger ones came in through the door they left open.

You are still awake,” I exclaimed, rushing out of bed. Their nanny came running after them with a grimace.

“No sleep until bedtime story, mommy!” They chorused. I had to carry them back to their room and read them their favorite story of the alpha prince and his mate.

It was an unending circle of work from the office to the pack and then the kids. A circle I would not trade for anything in the world. I loved every second of my duties and coming home every day to my family was everything Valens had taken the older kids to their rooms when I came back. I had a quick shower and crashed into bed. I registered his return sometime later, mumbling a quick greeting. A while later, I felt l!ps on my cheek.

“Thank you,” he whispered into my ears. “Thank you for saving me.”

“Yea, I love you too,” I yawned, snuggling into his ch3st, barely comprehending anything. I heard a chuckle and my favorite words.

“I love you, little moon.”
