The Abandoned Luna's Journey to Power (by Emily Reed) novel Chapter 277

Chapter 277 Give Lord Dross a Seat

The sun went down, and a full round moon hung high above us-like the Goddess’s eye watching every step we took

The wedding procession arrived in force at the Grand Cathedral of the Moon Goddess.

This was the holiest place in the werewolves fai. A vast dome of white jade soared overhead, ringed by 12 towering pillars carved with wolf heads. Outside, tens of thousands of people knell with flowers in their hands, praying with unwavering devotion.

We’re here

Adam smug down from his horse-clean, quick and effortlessly graceful

He walked to the carriage. This time, his hand in’t tremble. It was steady and sure.

I placed my hand in his palm and stepped down letting his strength guide me.

Along red carpet stretched from beneath our feet all the way into the heart of the cathedral.

Royal guards on both sides raised silver halberds forming a corridor of steel

We walked shoulder to shoulder into the grand Ball

The cathedral was already filled with nobles and members of the royal family, seated to witness the ceremony.

King Ryken and Queen Isabella sat in full regalia at the central seats of honor.

And in the VIP section to the left. Dean Dross sa with Selvaryn. Reginald, and the academy’s teachers and students-smiling at me like they already seen the ending and approved of it

By royal tradition, before the vows, the couple first bowed to the elders seated in the places of honor-an oath of gratitude and loyalty made without words.

It was a shame my father and mother couldn’t be here for my wedding,

The ceremonial announcer called out, loud and formal, “The newlyweds will step forward and pay respects to the elders!”

We moved as instructed.

He turned toward Dean Dross in the side seats and spoke clearly for the whole hall to hear.

Father Mother In my heart, Dean Dross is not only my uncle-he is also the teacher of bo Cindy and me He’s like my father, too. Today, on my wedding day. I ask that the Dean be given a seat of honor and receive our respects alongside you.”

The moment he said it, the entire hall erupted.

The old-guard nobles who worshiped rigid tradition immediately lost their minds.

“Unacceptable!”

A white-bearded count stood up. He was the minister of ceremony-and one of Princess Margaret’s loyal men. “Your Highness, this is a royal wedding! Only elders of the direct bloodline may sit in the seats of honor to receive the bow! Dean Dross may carry the Ryken name, but he is a collateral branch-self-exiled long ago, not part of the royal core! If he sits in the seat of honor, you will disrupt the laws of blood!”

Yeah! That’s totally out of order!”

How can a schoolteacher sit equal with the King”

Whispers rose and fell in waves. Dean Dross looked a little awkward, but he only shrugged, as if titles and vanity had never impressed him in the first place.

But someone did care.

Clang-t

A sharp metallic strike cut through every voice at once.

Reginald–the discipline master in a silver ceremonial uniform, his face rigid as stone- suddenly drew the sword at his waist.

He didn’t point it at anyone. Instead, he flipped his grip and drove that cold-glinting greatsword straight into the cathedral’s marble floor.

Three inches into stone.

Chips of marble exploded outward. A few noble closest to it stumbled back in alarm.

Reginald planted both hands on the hilt and swept the hall with eyes sharp as a hawk’s. A suffocating pressure rolled off him.
