For a brief moment, the fear lessened because my friends were still my friends, even in the middle of a war. Kaelen smiled. "You miss them." I looked back toward the image, toward the academy students, toward the people who had become family. "Yeah," the answer came quietly, honestly. "I do." The queen watched me carefully, then glanced toward the battlefield. "Good." I blinked. "What?" A faint smile appeared on her face. "The kingdom needs rulers who remember people." The statement caught me completely off guard. Rulers? I opened my mouth to protest, then closed it again because that wasn't the point. She wasn't talking about crowns, thrones, or titles. She was talking about responsibility—

I asked him. What was going on? Panic seeped into my bones slowly. What truth? Micah looked at me with pity. "Adrian has to take a queen soon, Elle. All my brothers do." He said softly. I stared at him. "Excuse me?" I said with disbelief. "The war with the dark ones... We realised the realm isn't stable enough with one leader. A queen could take over from the king until a new king is chosen. You see how envy is battled into pieces. A queen could solve a lot of issues. And to be fair, it would put some rest in a lot of realms. The realm is just too vulnerable with one leader." Micah explained.

I kinda understood them a little, if you steal from me I don't care if you return it back in a hundred folds I'll make sure you swallow bullets. "Let's make a deal", I said. "Princess we ain't talking any shit no -" "First of all, it's The Queen, I'm not your fucken princess", I snapped. "Second of all, I need him back, I need him alive, so we're going to have to come to an agreement, else I'll take him by force ". "You really want to get your hands dirty and have another cartel coming after you...'Queen' do you?".

But after what happened wit Lady Fina, I doubt she would go to the garden. On my way to her chamber, I spoke it her, the woman standing in the cold water of the fountain. This is it, isn't it? Father had said that I needed a strong queen if I wanted to be a strong King. He had warned me over and over again that a king without a queen is not a rational one. She would have been a great queen. She would have made a lot of changes to this kingdom. But she's dead. And now, I need my strong queen.

He said to his Beta who nodded and bowed before leaving. It's been five years since Aiden took over as Alpha and King from his father, King Bruce. Nonetheless, he did not receive his coronation. He has yet to find his mate, and the council is constantly pressuring him to simply choose some noble she-wolf or Lycan and succeed to the throne with a Queen by his side. According to their beliefs, a King is not strong enough to rule a kingdom without the aid of a queen, more like a mate to use as a sex slave. Queen is essential to providing the King with physical pleasure, so he does not take any other female to his bed in the heat of his need, making him vulnerable to attacks. A revolting thought

Everyone is trembling in fear, just hearing his Alpha's voice, which is the strongest in the whole world. "But... but you need to understand your highness, there was no king in history who never had a queen! you need to marry someone, even though you never had babies with her, you need to have a queen at least for the namesake! if you don't want your mate to be your queen or your luna, then please do find a woman, who is perfect to look at! you can't break the tradition that has been following from the day this kingdom has been created! there are so many things that both a King and Queen should do in this world!" Martin said, finally speaking up and telling him the rules, he know about Ashto

The Princess had half-hoped the pretentious hag keeled over that day–but no such luck that is a story for another time. Of course, going back to the matter at hand, the main reason of her ire stems to the indisputable fact that she has to choose a potential fiancée (a ‘partner’ in other words) as soon as possible since according to her father: “You need a husband to protect you when I am a gone. Because though a king can exist without a queen, a queen must always be with her king.”

Saint said. Lucas confirmed, "Yes, so?" Saint continued, "And for that you should be aware that there are several contenders! One thing you can't put off is that for ruling a clan, a king needs to have a queen, his mate!" Lucas knew what was coming and decided to square off the topic, "Hey listen, we are not getting back at this? I am just so f*cked up of your stupid mate topic!" Saint shrilled, "You can't become a king then! You won't be able to fulfill your dream of erecting an empire! You would be powerless, is that fine with Lucas!"

Sometimes it makes me wonder if he was real. "You don't need a perfect man. You need someone who'll keep you like his lady, not a queen. Because queen is still inferior to king. A King will always want to provide her with everything to cage her in his kingdom. But a real man will let you earn things for yourself, will let you live the way you want", he added.

** Maybe Hades was right. He said it was impossible, and yet here I was, snaking my way into Patrea’s life. I already knew she would never return to the Underworld with me, but I was still trying. I knew it was just one night that I told her I wanted, but if the one night could last for eternity, I wouldn’t complain.
