When The Moon Remembers
No one said a word or rose until we had gotten to the front.
The words of the councilman droned out in my ears as Luca helped me get on my knees, the softness of the pillow cushioning my bones. The crowd took their seats; a pin-drop silence enveloped the room.
“…the union between Moonfang and the Lycan Kingdom. An unbroken alliance that we all sit here today to witness. Today, you become not just the wife of the king; you become the queen of the Lycan kingdom. It is the honor bestowed upon me today to crown you, formerly Elara Moonstone, now Elara Blackthorn, Queen of the Lycan Kingdom.” He announced as the crowd rose just for him to put the crown on my head.
