A Lycan's Hybrid Mate

Chapter 37

Kage's Pov

Finally the day had come. All the preparations were complete and we were now ready to leave for the Annual Gathering.

I was still puzzled on how the hell they would know where to go if they didn't receive the name of the place.

Also, Tommy and Lucy was granted permission to join us by the Queen. I was kinda surprised she would allow that but I was totally expecting her for trying to get me not to come.

The reason why Romanov was so pissed a few days ago was because his mother was going to not allow me to come simply because she didn't want me to attend. Saying stuff about me being a fucking disgrace and mentioning someone named 'Ioanna' would laugh at her for her son being mated to an abomination, blah blah blah fucking blaaah.

But, as usual, the king came to the rescue and told her to shut the fuck up. Well, not that's not literally what he said but you know what I mean.

Right now all of us were gathered in the ball room of the palace where multiple suitcases where packed together.

The persons who will be attending the Annual Gathering consisted of the King, Queen, the twins, Rin, Romanov and I, with the addition of Lucy and Tommy.

Romanov's parents were dressed as if there was a ball being kept right now. Especially the Queen.

Damn she was so extra.

The twins wore their usual commander uniforms but somehow they looked a little more.... neater? I wasn't even sure if that's the correct word to say. Even Rin was looking more.... uh.... elegant?..... in her maid outfit.

Romanov, however, didn't seem to give a fuck and just threw on some blue jeans and a red T-shirt with a matching pair of red sneakers that was looking extremely expensive.

'He's a prince anyway soooooo.....'

I was also dressed casually. Well, more like Romanov and I were twining today. His mother didn't like it one bit. We didn't care.

I remember Rin saying something about 'relationship goals'. Huh....

Tommy was in a cute black suit with a gold tie to match his sister.  Lucy was given a white sundress that had gold designs all over it. The Queen wanted Rin to make sure Lucy wore a dress and for Tommy to wear a tie that matched. I had no fucking idea why she would want that.

All we have been doing was waiting for a whole damn hour and I'm not exactly that patient either.

"Romanov?"

"Yeah?"

"Take me off your lap. I can't stand your mother's death glare any longer. One hour is enough."

He frowned but took me off his lap to sit beside him. His mother haven't even spared me a glance since then. Thank fucking goddess.

"Hey. We are going to the Annual Gathering right?"

"Yeah."

"So why are we in the ball room then? Shouldn't we be on our way in a car or a plane or something? Plus how would you even know where to go if you weren't told where the place is?"

He chuckled. "You'll soon see how we'll get there. And the place is usually a surprise."

I groaned. "That didn't answer my question at all."
