CHAPTER 95
MONTANA'S POV
Lincoln and I made out that morning after coming to an agreement before going down for breakfast, and soon I had to address the pack.
It was short and brief, I simply explained while I have been kept a secret and everything else important, at the same time not putting out full details for safety reasons.
You never know who has bad intentions against you.
"I would also like to announce our coronation that is coming up", Lincoln stepped out and stood by me as we held our hands together and raised it up.
Pack members cheered and howled.
There was likely to be a real marriage ceremony this time and with an alliance formed with the royal family, my family, and Lucien's pack and family, which is also my family.
Together, we will be one.
I needed someone with me, someone I could trust, despite anything. I know I am strong enough to rule my kingdom, but eventually I need my mate by my side and so does Lucien.
He is an Alpha and I am a Queen. Sounds like the perfect match!
Now we were getting ready for the coronation. Lots of things and responsibilities, and it was best for us to get everything done with.
I could not wait, so I could finally rest and not have to think about what I have to do or what I have not done and the results. Would they be good or bad?
Sometimes responsibility can be really stressful, although I was happy that Lincoln and I were making things official for real this time and not fake.
For the Venue preparations, Victoria took it upon herself to handle that for us as a gift. She had chosen a grand hall, within the Pack's territory, the size was good and perfect for this ceremony.
The halls were to be adorned with banners and tapestries. Also symbols of my pack and his pack, which would represent both of our lineage.
The flower arrangements she picked were exquisite, I loved it and so did Lincoln. Also, she would be adding candlelight and some warm lighting to enhance the feel and vibe of the hall.
When she explained this to us, I could already imagine how the hall will look, and I do hope it goes well.
As for the invitation card, I was handling that one. Just something simple, designed with white and black.
A drawing of the man is at the opening of the card, while a drawing of the woman is at the other side and if whoever is given the card or whoever wants to open the card, opens it by the handle, the woman at the other end meets the man at the beginning and the person reads the invitation.
It was quite unique and very lovely. Simple yet elegant.
When the cards were done, we started sending out invitations to packs. It was going to be a big one, seeing as my family still had alliance with some other big packs, but there was enough space for all.
There will be food to feast on, drinks, and so many other things as they come to witness the marriage and celebrate the coronation of a Queen and her Alpha King.
It took up to like two weeks to get everything ready. We were not rushing it so much and wanted everything to be perfect, while Lincoln and I played lovey-dovey all over the place.
Zane and Zendaya had never been more happy to see their parents together like this. I was happy. I am happy!
Finally, the week had come, and our attires were ready and delivered just on time. Lincoln attire was a black Kefta with black cuffs which were long, nearly floor length robes which can be said to resemble a coat.
The buttons on this Kefta would be hidden. We had actually gotten this inspiration from a movie and decided to use that too. Something different, use it, then add a few touches of ours.
Then he will be wearing them with polished leather boots, "what do you think?"
We all know whose idea it was. Mine!
"I love it, I think it would look great on me," Lincoln said and earned himself a peck on his cheek.
"I will leave you to prepare then and go prepare myself, we will see later," I said quickly, wanting to rush out but got pulled back.
"You forgot something", he smirked and kissed me softly and then got deeper. When he released me, I was panting softly.
"Now you can go."
And that I did.
My attire was the same as Lincoln's; the only difference was the color and design. Lincoln's Kefta was fully black with some different shades of black designs and mine was also fully black too but with silver designs and a fur added around the collar.
Soon we were ready and so was everyone else. The ceremony began with a solemn procession, as Lincoln and I were accompanied by our family, and close ones while we made our way into the hall.
Music filled the air, a soft, calm one, that made the whole walk in more special.
We stood in front of the gathered assembly, where we recited the oaths of allegiance and commitment to our pack, our Kingdom and to each other.
Everyone, witnesses from various packs and allies, affirmed their support and pledged loyalty to their new rulers. For many years, there were no King or Queen of werewolves, just higher ranks, tops, most feared but today, there is a new rise of the King and Queen.
With reverence, we were crowned. Lincoln placed the crown upon my head as I did to him. As equals! Which we mutually agreed on.
This crowning moment was met with cheers, applause and howls from the crowd celebrating the Union of their leaders.
Good wishes were heard and gifts too were given. After the ceremony, we moved on to the party. It was a different hall altogether, in this hall there was food, drinks, music, enough space to dance and enjoy ourselves.
Lincoln and I opened the dance floor as the rest joined, "Can not wait for it to be over so we can have some alone time, just us," Lincoln said to me as I had my hand wrapped around his neck and his hand around my waist while we moved slowly.
I chuckled and bopped his nose, "me too," I confessed with a wide smile on my face.
But that smile wiped off my face when I sighted them and stopped dancing, "What are they doing here?"
