It had been decided that Zander and Zenith would stay in Ogregon continent and Zaya would come with Iris and Cane, since she was still so little and it was not necessary for her to stay behind in Ogregon continent.
"We have spent six years ahead of you with mother and father, now you can have them for a while," Zenith said when Zaya cried because she didn’t want to leave her brother, but she also wanted to come with Iris and Cane.
This must be the first hardest decision that she had to make. All this time, she had it easy, because everyone would cater to her need and she didn’t need to choose, because she people would happily get what she wanted.
But right now, she couldn’t be with her parents and her brothers at the same time and this made her very sad.
However, she understood the importance of why they needed to leave to Andelus Continent. She loved her father so much and she wanted him to get well soon.
"We will meet again, Zaya. I will write every day." Zander reassured her. "Don’t you want to hug me?"
Zaya lifted her head and let go of Zenith, before she gave Zander a big hug and cried in her brother’s chest.
Because of the urgency of the situation, the coronation for Zander as the new king would be held in a week. They did it in a rush to make it official that Zander would take the throne.
He was only sixteen years old when he was crowned as the king and Cane stepped down officially from his position.
It was the most hectic week, as the news came as a surprise and everyone had to prepare for this big event meticulously. freeweɓnøvel.com
It was exhausting and emotionally draining. Everything went as a blur when the day of the coronation came.
But the night before the coronation, Iris found out that Zander, Zenith and Zaya slept together in Zenith’s bedroom. Her sister was very sad to leave them.
Hanna told her about this because she saw Zander and Zaya barged into Zenith’s bedroom, while bringing their pillows.
Iris entered the room and was greeted by this cute sight of her children’s sleeping faces. Zander and Zaya slept peacefully, while Zenith had this frown on his face. He looked like he was done with his siblings’ antics, but couldn’t actually do anything about it.
Iris walked toward them and gave them kisses, but when she approached Zenith, he was woken up.
"I am sorry, did I wake you up?" Iris whispered in low voice.
"No..." Zenith rubbed his eyes sleepily. "I have been kicked by Zaya twice. I can’t sleep."
Iris chuckled and sat down on the edge of the bed. "Do you want late night meal?"
Zenith thought about that and then nodded. "Okay."
With that the two of them went to the kitchen, but there were still a few omegas there, because tomorrow was a big day of the coronation and there were many people, who were still working on it.
"My queen, prince Zenith," the omegas greeted them both. "Is there something we can help you with?"
"It’s okay. We will just take some food and leave." Iris and Zenith took their food and turned down their offer to help. "Just continued with what you are doing. It will not take long."
After they got their food, the two of them left and went to the dining hall. This place had been decorated meticulously with the color of purple and black, the new color of their kingdom.
They took their seat and started to eat their food, while talking about trivial thing."
"I have not yet heard about your opinion regarding this decision, Zen," Iris mentioned about it.
Zenith lifted his head. "I think my opinion doesn’t matter, it has been decided already."
Iris stretched out her hand and grabbed his. "Of course, your opinion matter, Zen. Even though it has been decided, but I want to hear your take in this matter."
Because of his nature, Zenith didn’t really say his opinion, he only went with the flow and agreed readily, but not even once he said what he was thinking about it.
"So, tell me what you are thinking about this?"
Zenith gave it some thought and chose his words carefully. "I am glad father got the help that he needed and there is way to save him, but I feel like everything became so real. You are going to leave after the ceremony and Zander would be the king. I am not sure if I can be any of help. I feel at lost," he finally admitted.
