"Me?" Dexter asked. "You want me to take over as alpha?"

"Yes, but we aren't forcing anything on you, if you don't want the position we could always hand it over to Than." I said half jokingly. Than was definitely out of the picture when it comes to Alpha but we could probably find someone else if we really wanted or needed to. But we don't want to and hopefully we won't have to. That's why I was really hoping Dexter would be up to the idea.

"You guys sure this is what you want?"

"Yes" Leo replied for me.

I held my breath for a painful moment until a smile crept up onto Dexter's face. "I'd be honoured to be your packs Alpha. But I do have one request . . ."

I was relieved. "Yes, what's is it?"

"Can Anna and Vanessa transfer to Leo's pack with me. Only if they want to of course though . . ." He trailed off unsure of himself or where he was trying to get with what he was saying.

"If they want to, they are welcome to, after all you soon will be the Alpha and it would be up to you to decide." Leo said.

"Then I would love to be Alpha!" Dexter said.

"Great, I'm so happy you said yes. It would be a pain to have to find someone else. Would you be okay leaving tomorrow to meet the pack? I'd rather they get to know their new Alpha before he officially takes over." Leo said.

"I think I'd feel more comfortable knowing them as well." Dex agreed.

"Most of the men are here anyways so why don't you meet them tonight and tomorrow when you go back with them you can meet the other pack members." I add in.

We spoke for a few more minutes before Dexter headed out to meet some of his new pack.

Leo and I started to walk to the Queen's drawing room, where she had requested to meet with us.

As soon as we entered the room, we both headed towards the couch before Emmaline stopped us. "Don't bother sitting down, this won't take long. I just wanted to wish you both luck as the new Queen and soon to be King, of the Supernatural."

Leo seemed oblivious to the wink she'd sent me at the 'soon to be King' part. "Thank you Queen Emmaline."

"Ah Ah Ahhh, It's just Emmaline, I am no longer the Queen and I won't stand being called something I'm not!" Leo gulped, not noticing the smile playing on Emmaline's lips. "Geez boy, sometimes you are too blind for your own good."

I laughed but Leo still seemed uncomfortable, he will just have to learn and get used to Emmaline's behaviour. Now that I'm Queen, she doesn't have to worry about formality and being proper and so he will be hearing a lot from her in the future.
