It was dinner time and everybody had gathered together in the great hall. The royal couple shared a long table with their most trustworthy friends, while the other people sat at different tables, feasting on a good meal. Tonight was no different than any other night, but there was news to share.

"You look tired," Arya told Aema when she saw the alpha yawn for the nth time that day.

"Yeah, I almost didn't sleep last night."

"Ohhh, Brianna kept you up all night?" Magnus asked with an eyebrow wiggle before his teeth sunk into a piece of chicken meat and yanked it straight off its bone. Meat juices ran down his chin which he licked off.

"Yeah, actually she did cause she wanted to try this new thing last night where she--ouch!"

"Shut up! Not everyone needs to know, Aema!"

Brianna smacked her alpha's shoulder just in time. Why was her man so strange? He was shy on one hand but on the other hand, he knew no shame. Brianna shook her head.

"Sorry," Aema said with red cheeks, rubbing over his shoulder which actually hurt.

The whole table laughed.

The alpha King looked at all the people sitting at his table. He never expected to feel as happy as he felt right now. He had a lover, a home, and friends he dared to start calling a family. When his eyes landed on the person sitting next to him, Arya was already smiling at him. Such a cute dimpled smile. It made the alpha's heart flutter.

He lovingly smiled back and took hold of her hand.

"Do it now," she whispered.

Kohl nodded and stood up. He suddenly jumped on the dining table, making all people stop talking and eating to see what was going to happen. They knew the King would announce something.

"Gearians!" the alpha yelled, getting the attention of all his people straight away. "It has been three months since the attack of the horse and tomorrow we will celebrate a new year together. And in that new year, Arya and I shall take over Thaksin's crown, as he has let us know that he will retire. We shall rule over Geara and Oprela together and we shall turn both kingdoms into one large nation--the largest and strongest of all!"

The Gearians went wild with the news.

With a smile, Arya looked at the scenery. She had to admit that she loved it. Even though most were barbaric disgusting pigs, they loved their equally barbaric King to the death. And that was worth a lot.

Kohl raised his glass, the other people followed, just like Arya did.

"Being the biggest and the best will make others jealous and so I am sure we will face more enemies in the future! But we will be ready for them! We will protect what is ours! Drink with me!"

The crowd roared and at the same time, they gulped their wine down like Gearians, till it was spilling and drizzling down their throats and beards.

Kohl jumped off the table and dropped on his chair again.

Arya loved this barbaric King as well.

Over the past three months, she did make up some rules though. One of them was no more fucking during dinner in the great hall. She was sure a lot of people had to hold themselves back right now, during these happy moments, but except for some boob grabbing and kissing with tongue, they behaved themselves.

"Magnus?" Kohl called out.

"Yes, my King? I am so happy right now! That was some great news."

"It is. Actually, I need to have one of the men deliver something to Thaksin in Oprela. It has to be done tomorrow."
