Suddenly, I stood and dropped to one knee before her. The honor is mine. I pledge my loyalty to you.” 

The Luna Queen laughed. “Rise, Hannah. There’s no need to kneel. We’re friends.” 

Friends. I never thought I would hear the Luna Queen herself refer to me as such a thing, but it made my 

heart soar. 

As I stood, one of the council members spoke up. “In light of the… upcoming wedding,” she said delicately, “we want you to know that our packs will not ally with Alpha Noah. He has proven himself to be a lying cheater.” 

“You don’t have to flatter me-” 

“We’re not flattering you, Alpha Hannah. We’re fully supportive of you and your leadership.” 

As they left, my heart pounded like a war drum in my chest. I barely had time to collect my thoughts when Alvin approached, although his smile–unlike everyone else’s–didn’t reach his eyes. 

I felt a sudden lump form in my throat at the sight of him. I hadn’t yet heard how he’d reacted when he was told that he wouldn’t be taking my father’s position after all. 

“Congratulations, cousin,” he said, extending his hand. “Care for a dance?”

or get a dig in. Maybe both. 

to comfort yourself.” I couldn’t decide if I was trying to make him laugherseas. Find a new woman 

His eyes lit up at the suggestion. “You know what? I think I will.” 

As the song ended, I placed a hand on his arm. “Alvin, you’re still my cousin. You have a place in my court. When you return from your trip, I’d like you to join my personal council. I’m looking for a new public relations officer, and you’re skilled in that field. I’d like to have you on my team.” 

Alvin’s eyebrows rose slightly. “You’re certainly a gracious Alpha, cousin,” he said with a dip of his head, his tone unreadable. As he walked away, I was left with an uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach. 

He’ll get over it, I told myself as my fingers came up to touch my crown. He never wanted this. Not really. 

The rest of the feast passed in a blur. The party would last all night and likely well into tomorrow, but around midnight, I finally excused myself. My feet were sore from my heels and my back hurt from having. to sit ramrod straight all night. 

Throughout the night, I couldn’t help but look for one face amongst the crowd; Noah. I’d never admit it, especially not to my friends and family, but I couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed that he never
