Christina's POV

I've been really busy first with the ball and I'm starting to organise certain aspects of my Coronation, for a week organising the palaces decoration and running the annual Christmas ball as is my duty. I'm so relieved it's over it was a huge insight at what Diana would have to do every year, now I'm mated to Lance it's my job. Tonight is the ball every Alpha and their Luna's have been invited Alpha Jake politely declined he found his mate but certain circumstances in her family mean she is unable to attend, but everyone else will attend. Including the new Alpha Everest of The Congo Scar Pack. Jess and Mark are very slowly getting used to each other she has had a few conversations with him but it's a slow process.

I'm with Margret my event co-ordinator "Margret where's the tall vases they should be nine tall vases in the dinning hall they should have 5 white Amaryllis in the centre surrounded with red roses and some Christmas foliage in the corners." "Yes your highness I will check with Lucy again." "Hard at work love" Lance comes up behind me I turn around Lance bends down for a quick kiss. "I'm going to organise security love make sure everything is ready for tonight ." "Well I'll still be here if you need me, I've so much still to go over."

Jess, Ali and I are getting our hair and makeup done my tiara set into my hairdo, we then say our goodbyes Diana came for Ali and I walked back to our room in my robe. I open the door and I gape Lance is in his royal suit wow handsome. "Haha glad you noticed" I snap out of it and glare at him. "I told you stop getting into my head." "Aww come on Love it's cosy in there plus it's almost always about me so I like to hear what you think." I put up my wall. "No oh come on no more walls." I huff "fine then take your wall down." I place my hands on my hips. "Where's the fun in that trust me all you'll see in my head is how I very much want to see you without the robe or any clothes on." I look up in horror "Well that's not happening I've been planning this for a week and I'm not going to let your muscles and eyes distract me now can you hand me my gown some of us still have to get dressed up." He smiles shaking his head but goes in and pulls out my dress I get in over my robe once it's past my hips I awkwardly undo the robe and throw it away I clutch the dress to my chest. "Can you zip it up baby?" I hear him gulp as he zips it up he groans. "Your turning me on again love eeerrrggghhh can't we have a bit of fun before the ball we're the main attraction the party will wait for us." Oh now he went too far. Once I was zipped I glare at him crossing my arms over my chest. "No this is the first ball I've organised and I won't be late if you behave yourself then maybe later we can have some fun but not now." He pouted but opened his elbow for me to take.

The ball was in full swing Lance and I had a waltz first before everyone else was allowed to join then I danced with Ali and Jess. I talked with Mindy and Rachel before standing back on the stage with Lance to formally greet all the Alpha's and their Luna's. If I don't say so myself the place looked fantastic, I didn't know I had it in me. I was so happy this is a great night and I watched as Jess even had a laugh with Mark, and letting him dance with her.
Weston asked everyone to the dining hall for dinner. We arrived once everyone was at their seats they stood for us as we entered. My chair was pulled out for me as I sat Lance then took his seat and nodded for his family to sit next then everyone else. We were always served first I still felt sorry for everyone waiting their food. As soon as we began to eat everyone else began to eat as well. I chatted with as many people as I could around me at the table Jess didn't talk to anyone during dinner but she seemed more like her old self again.
