Mated to the Alpha King-Book 1 novel Chapter 36

The throne room is decorated precisely how I imagined it. The banners of deep crimson and vibrant gold drape across the tall ceiling and run above the aisle.

The chairs run along each side perfectly distanced from each other. Each chair looks to be made out of gold with a satin cushion of porcelain white.

I let my eyes zone to the end of the aisle and my eyes immediately focus on the handsome man waiting for me. Lucas is wearing a vest that matches my gown, black dress pants that are fitted to his legs, and a long ceremonial robe draped across his shoulders. Lucas looks every bit the king he was born to be.

I can't help the smile that graces my lips when Lucas mind links me.

You look absolutely enchanting baby girl. I love you.

I love you too. You look dashing as well.

My feet move on their own accord, leading me to the end of the aisle and toward my mate.

As I take the last steps Lucas reaches out his hand, guiding me the rest of the way and to his side.

Reginald and Sofia rise from the thrones causing the guest to sit back in their chairs and Lucas and I to kneel in front of them.

Reginald speaks as he reaches for Lucas' crown off the pillar and cushion it was sitting on.

"Do you Lucas James Knight, accept the responsibilities that will fall onto your shoulders as the leader of the werewolf kingdom. Will you care for all your subjects? Will you stand by your mate, your queen as equals and support each other through all life will throw at you? Will you rule the land with the best interest of all within your mind?"

"I promise to fulfill my duty as Alpha King and do everything in my power to rule the kingdom fairly and protect each person of this great nation."

Reginald places the crown onto Lucas head with a proud smile lighting up his face.

"I then hereby pronounce you Lucas James Knight, Alpha King of all werewolves!"

There is a strong shift in the room as the Alpha power goes from Reginald to Lucas. Lucas had already projected a powerful aura but now it had increased ten folds.

Reginald takes a step to the side and Sofia takes his place, reaching for my crown with a wide smile on her face.
