     "May I announce," One of the elders begin.

      "Queen Cecilinda DarkFall, ruler above all werewolves. Daughter of Soverigns King Alton and Queen Alexandria. Long Live Queen Cecilinda!" He shouts into the crowd.

    "Long Live Queen Cecilinda!" The crowd chants back as I look over at Hunter.

    "And King Hunter Irons, son of Retired Beta Aidon Irons and his wife Rose." He shouts as I look over to Hunter, a smirk on his face.

   "Long life King Hunter!" They continue to shout.

   Jay then steps forward, his eyes still broken and in pain. Yet he pushes through, he pushes past the pain of loosing his family, past the pain of being locked up, and past the pain of loosing his mate. And he does it for the same reason I do.

    He does it for his people.

      "Introducing Alpha James Anaka, Leader of the Northern-Moon pack. Son of The late Alpha and His wife Eleanor." The Elder finishes, as Jay nods his head and flashes a fake smile to the people before him, earning loud shouts and praises.

    "We're going to do this." I announce to my people. The people that are only here because of me. My family.

     "And we're going to do it together."

We sit, and watch the sunset side by side from the palace gardens. Our hands together.

"How's your parents doing?" I ask as we watch the sky burst into a thousand different colours.

"They've packed everything in DarkFall and once again they're going to move. Closer to their old pack who I don't think they've seen in about twenty years." He smiles, I think they'll appreciate the company of wolves other than each other. I think he might take up as alpha if he can, but he's a bit out of shape." He smiles," it has been awhile since they were in a pack."

"How's Aileen?" Hunter asks me, looking at the crimson sky.

"She's saying in our home, but she knows she has a place here if she wants it." I smile as Hunter turns to me.

"How's she gonna get in if she's human?" Hunter asks as I turn to face him.

"Well whoever doesn't let her in will be burned alive."I smile as Hunter flashes me a concerned look.

"I'm kidding." I roll my eyes as he begins to laugh nervously.

"Remind me never to piss you off." He laughs, wrapping an arm around me and lightly kissing me on the forehead. We sigh, and sit quietly in each other's arms.

    "I feel like this is end of something."Hunter sighs, "everything is too peaceful." He laughs as he lightly strokes my check.

    "Are you complaining?" I ask as I turn to him, "after all, you are literally the King, I'm sure something will come up." I laugh.

   "And whatever it is I will save your ass, so we'll be okay." I grin as Hunter shakes his head while laughing.

   "I feel bad for anyone that will ever get in your way." He smiles, watching as the sky begins to darken.

     "And this isn't the end of something." I turn to lightly kiss Hunter.

   "This right here." I kiss him again. "Is only the beginning of our long lives together."
