Mated to the Alpha King-Book 1 novel Chapter 22

"Wow"

A blush starts to blossom on my cheeks from Lucas' appraisal.

"You look extraordinary baby girl. Is that the enchanted tiara?"

"Y-yeah... I can take it off if you want."

"No I love it. I just can't believe that you can wear it. I mean I knew you would be an amazing queen, but knowing you are a True Queen is crazy."

I just look at Lucas. His hair is styled yet still slightly messy. His suit clings to him like a second skin, showing his amazing muscles.

As I continue to admire my mate a piece of hair falls onto his forehead. I immediately push it off and back onto the top of his head.

"Thank you baby girl. Are you ready?"

"As ready as I'll ever be."

Lucas chuckles, kisses my forehead and leads me out the door with his arm wrapped around my waist.

Ready or not. Here we go.

At 2:30 Lucas and I are standing in front of the pack house, scratch that, Palace is the better word for it. I remember walking through these doors with Adaline and Jordan but I don't remember coming out of them. When I woke up I was in Lucas and I's room.

"Lucas? Before we go on I have a question."

"Sure baby. What is it?"

"How did I get from the ballroom to our room the night we met? And who changed me?"

Lucas scratches the back of his neck while looking everywhere but my face.

"I may or may not have kept everyone away from you... Sorren and I were so excited to meet you and when you were scared we wanted nothing more then to protect you. Lenna and Kendra were the ones who changed you. It took some convincing, like Kendra lighting me on fire... I carried you to our room. So yeahhhh... Are you mad?"

So Kendra lit him on fire? Wish I could have seen that. That would have been freaking hilarious.

"So I take it your not mad since you are talking out loud?"

"Crap."

"Don't say that. I don't like those naughty words slipping past your angel lips."

"Yes Alpha."

I can't help the sarcasm in my voice, or the smirk that resides on my face.

"You will be the death of me."
