I stood there silently as my mates took my hands into their own my heartbeat was wild with glee at this moment with my mates, I didn't know how her future would go from this point on but I was happy to know they would be there always for the kingdom and me.

The twins father took a step forward towards them, he set his left hand on top of my forehead and slowly his wife, the twins mother did the same. His words low with power as he slowly started it all, "Do you Sara Nightshade swear to protect this kingdom with your heart and soul? Do you swear to continue the righteous royal bloodline and let it flow through the future heirs of this fine territory?"
It felt as if I weren't even answering, my voice sounded like a mixture of my own and my wolf's, "This kingdom is now my heart and my soul the wolves and packs who live upon these lands. My cubs will bear my mates and my burden when if comes time for us to step down they are the new from the old, they themselves will become one with the packs", for some mysterious reason I got down on a knee bowing to the twins parents, my in laws, the old rulers of the kingdom, fellow wolves who had great responsibilities. Next their mother started to talk.

"Repeat after me now Sara dear. I solemnly swear to fight for my place as Queen and prove my strength, to feed the packs and help maintain peace among them."

"I solemnly swear to fight for my place as Queen and prove my strength, the feed the packs and help maintain peace among them."

"Will you take honor and pride as your role as Queen?"
"I will"

"Will you mate these two wolves and be their confidence, their peace, their wisdom? Will you guard them with your life even of it means loosing your own?", I thought I could feel my heart skip a beat at the thought of dying to protect the twins but it didn't matter.....I'd do it for them.
" I will"

The twins mother took her hand off my forehead and turned around taking the crown from an adolescent and turning back to me, " Long live the queen, may her ruling pave the journey of our future with knowledge and happiness "
Chants of 'long live the queen' started up and I turned to look to my parents, my mother's face held a smile and a few years while my father's held happiness, pride and a slight sadness while he held my mothers small frame against his strong one. I was no longer just their pup all grown up, I was a leader, a ruler with a kingdom to look after.

Next was Jake and Mike...

"Repeat after me now, the both of you: I solemnly swear to fight for my place as King and prove my strength, to feed the packs and help maintain peace among them."

"I solemnly swear to fight for my place as King and prove my strength, the feed the packs and help maintain peace among them."

"Now, do you both swear to be faithful to your queen, to love her unconditionally, to pamper her with love and care?"
"We will"

"Will you mate this wolf, protect her from others, put her life before yours and help create a future with her"
"We will"

"Will you trust her decision, feed her from your plate and accept her flaws"
"We will"

Their father took both his hands off their foreheads and let two adolescents come forward placing crowns on their heads, chants for their kings started up and instead of standing still I turned and hugged them both. I didn't realize I was crying until they started cooing in my ear that I was okay and that nothing would happen. My father in law handed me two rings and one to both of my mates, their ring/s held my initials while both of mine held their initials, one on each, they slipped them onto my ring finger which felt slightly heavier after words and then I slipped theirs onto their fingers.
More cheers erupted throughout the room, and giddiness replaced the nervousness that had once been in my tummy, Jake kissed me first gently, softly, letting his lips explore mine and then Mike kissed me, his kiss was more urgent, not as soft but passionate his thoughts were being practically screamed through the link.

"I forgive you..."

His eyes shined with happiness, picking me up, smiling brightly as it was like our happy normal mood was restored. When he set me down an impending sense of dread took over when I remembered the last part of how coronations worked on the female's behalf, I took a step away from my mates and looked to my "mother-in-law" who held a small smile on her face.

"Now ma'am let's get this branding over with shall we", she continued to smile coming up to my side linking my arm with hers signalling to her mate and sons as we walked out a huge door that lead outside, a lone chair sat bolted to the ground, it was some strong type of metal (gladly not silver) that was meant to withhold the strength of a pained female. I hitched up my dress on my left side to the thigh and sat down allowing myself to be chained down by my mates, they glanced to their mother and stood behind me.

She had pulled out a silver brand (as shown last chapter) while wearing protecting gloves to not burn herself with the harmful metal, she went to my uncovered side and pressed it against my thigh listening to how the skin burned, charring, leaving a dark black mark on my skin.
" Welcome officially to the royal family my dear"

This chapter was pretty short sorry but I'm trying to think of how stuff will continue from here do I'm TRYING to plan if I should end it here and start another with the continuation of it or finish it all off here. Thanks for reading once again
