I walk forward, my hand in Hunters
towards the remaining elders of the government. I feel strength, and I feel courage. The long lilac dress that was fitted to my body, hugs my small curves tightly, flowing out at the bottom.

    We stop walking as we reach a panel of elders, our hands still intertwined as they face us.

   "I demand a single right." I shout as I look up at the older wolves. My power dominating over them.

   "And what, Princess, is it that you demand." The oldest wolf asks, still sitting in a large stand with the other elders. I narrow my eyes at them as I can feel them shaking at my feet, I'm no longer just Cecelia, nor even Cecilinda.

I'm both.

    "I demand the right to marry my mate." I tilt my head upwards as I stand confidently before him at him. Taunting him to say no as my free hand is closed tightly into a ball.

He knows I could easily murder all of them, I took down more wolves a thousand year ago by myself. But no more blood needs to be spilled, many of them still look at me like a ghost.

    He turns to the other elders and whispers so quietly that no even I can hear. He turns to me once again, his eyes dark.

    "Cecelia-" he begins but I cut him off.

   "That's Cecilinda to you." I narrow my eyes and make sure my voice is deep. Another elder stands forward with a questionable look, and I answer the question before he even asks it.

    "I'm back." I raise an eyebrow at them. "And I didn't die twice just to be denied by my own descendants." I sigh, beginning to walk away with Hunter. With or without their permission I was going to be with my mate, and I was going to rule my kingdom.

They couldn't stop me if they wanted to.

"Granted." The older elder whom I recognise as Marcelous almost whispers as we continue to walk out of the large room. I try to contain my happiness as we both stop in our tracks, gently, Hunter squeezes my hand as he gives me a smug smile.

     As we reach the doors outside, Hunter throws me up into his arms and lowers me down slowly, lightly placing his lips on mine as his hands slither behind my back.

       "No words on earth can describe how much on earth I love you." He grins, his arms around mine.

    "And now you'll get to be my wife." He smiles.

"Not only your wife." I grin as he looks at me strangely. "I'll going to be your Queen."

"Ma'am, do you need any assistance?" One of the young wolfs ask me as I sit in the bath, bubbles floating around me.

    "No, I'll be okay Anna." I smile as she backs out of my large bathroom. I smile for the millionth time today as I take in the beautiful detail that has been put into the walls. It's fit for a Queen.

    The stained golden in the walls swirl around me, small lively shades of green intertwine with it, acting like a vine which continues to grow towards the sun.

Deep down my heart aches for the friends that I had lost. My best friend Em, who I'd spent not one life with, but two.
