The Alpha King's Daughter Chapter 31
In his chambers down the hall, King Alexander sat at his desk reviewing security reports. The captain of the Royal Guard had increased patrols around the palace perimeter in preparation for tomorrow's guests.A knock at the door made him pause, “Enter.”“Forgive me, Your Majesty, her Highness asked me to bring you the Heir Mask Design for the Wedding,” Sara, the handmaiden of Elizabeth, from earlier that came to the private dining room, stated.Alexander set aside the reports and gestured for Sara to approach. The maid stepped forward with practised grace, presenting the design with a respectful bow.The king studied the drawing with careful attention, noting how Elizabeth had balanced tradition with individuality. The delicate silver filigree incorporated elements reminiscent of his late wife's mask, yet subtle modifications made it distinctly Elizabeth's own. Moonstone accents were positi

"Defer to your mother or myself," Alexander replied. "There is no shame in acknowledging the limits of your current knowledge, particularly as newcomers to court."Elizabeth studied Buck's expression, noting the uncharacteristic vulnerability beneath his usual confidence. "If you find yourself unsure," she offered quietly, "look to me. I can redirect the conversation if necessary."The princess's offer of assistance surprised both twins. Though they had spent the day witnessing her capabilities, this small gesture of support felt different, less about royal protocol and more about personal connection.King Alexander observed his daughter's interaction with the twins with careful consideration. Elizabeth's willingness to assist them reflected well on her character, yet he remained watchful for any sign that the Talley brothers might become a distraction from her duties. The balance was delicate, particularly with the complicated dynamics that would inevitably emerge as all three approa

Luna Phoebe caught the subtle warning in her future stepdaughter's words. Elizabeth was cautioning Buck against underestimating the Frost heir, a courtesy that revealed more about her character than perhaps she intended."The northern style would complement your training well," Phoebe suggested to her sons. "Perhaps you might observe more than participate in this first encounter."Buck's disappointment was visible, though he tried to mask it. "As you wish, Mother."King Alexander nodded approvingly at Phoebe's diplomatic handling of her son's enthusiasm. "Wisdom often begins with observation," he stated. "There will be many opportunities to demonstrate Thunder Peak's strengths in the coming months."The promise of future opportunities mollified Buck somewhat. He returned to his meal, though his mind raced with images of combat demonstrations and the chance to prove himself worthy of his new position.Elliot, meanwhile, was contemplating the complex dynamics they would face tomorrow. A

"A wise choice," the king agreed with a slight nod. "Captain Thorne has spoken highly of Dixon's progress. It will serve the dual purpose of impressing our guests while allowing us to evaluate his readiness for the wedding assignment."Elizabeth felt a small flutter of satisfaction at her father's approval. These small victories, having her suggestions accepted without modification, were rare enough to savour, though she kept her expression carefully neutral. Years of training had taught her that visible emotion, even pride, could become a vulnerability in the complex game of court politics.Buck watched the exchange with growing curiosity. The mention of a personal bodyguard for the wedding reminded him how different Elizabeth's reality was from his own. At Thunder Peak, protection came from the pack as a whole rather than designated individuals. The constant threat that seemed to surround the princess still felt abstract to him, more protocol than necessity."Is there a particular r

"The Frostmoon delegation will expect certain formalities," Alexander said, returning to the previous subject. "Their pack values tradition above all else. It would be wise for all of you to review northern protocols before tomorrow evening."Buck suppressed a sigh. More protocols, more rules, more performances. At Thunder Peak, Alpha visits meant feasting and ceremonial hunts, not this elaborate dance of hidden meanings and carefully chosen attire. He caught Elliot's warning glance and straightened his posture, remembering his mother's earlier counsel."Will there be a formal introduction of Buck and Elliot as your stepsons?" Luna Phoebe asked, her tone light but her eyes watchful. The question carried significant political weight; how the twins would be presented to other pack leaders would establish their position in the court hierarchy.Alexander dabbed at his lips with a napkin before answering. "They will be introduced as the sons of Luna Phoebe, heirs to Thunder Peak, and membe

"Of course, Your Highness," Sara replied with a gentle smile. "My mate understands the demands of service to the crown. I'm honoured to attend to you."The genuine affection in Sara's voice was one of the few comforts Elizabeth permitted herself to acknowledge. Though she maintained an appropriate distance from the palace staff, Sara and a handful of others had been with her since childhood. They represented the closest thing to constancy she had known since her mother's death.In the guest wing, the Talley twins were experiencing their own version of royal evening preparations. Servants had arrived to assist with formal attire, an unfamiliar process that Buck found particularly uncomfortable."I can dress myself," he grumbled as a valet presented three nearly identical shirts for his inspection."The appropriate dinner attire reflects on Luna Phoebe's position," the valet explained patiently. "There are subtle distinctions in cut and fabric that convey respect for the occasion."Elli
