Chapter 95 Someone To Meet
Addison hadn’t realized the potential of her words, nor had she considered this larger strategy. Yet as she listened, a flicker of admiration sparked in her eyes as she looked at her father. Despite her not suggesting the full plan, the Alpha King felt nothing but pride. Her foresight had been the catalyst—and that was enough.
He was truly pleased with the outcome. The more he brought Addison to court meetings, the more she would grow. Her perspective would sharpen, her understanding deepen, and soon, her ability to lead would flourish.
This upcoming conference wouldn’t just be a turning point for the kingdom—it would be a defining moment for Addison. A chance for her to learn, to shine, and to begin stepping into the role that awaited her. And that, more than any speech or plan, was the Alpha King’s true intention all along.
"Your Majesty is truly wise!" many of the department leaders exclaimed, nodding in agreement. Shortly after, the discussion shifted to less pressing matters concerning the domain and palace affairs. Once those were addressed, the meeting was officially adjourned. One by one, the attendees departed, including the Alpha, his secretary, and the young assistant, Addison.
"You did well," the Alpha King said, gazing at his daughter. He resisted the urge to ruffle her hair, opting instead for a simple nod. After all, they were still in the throne room, and as the saying goes, walls have ears. The three of them quietly made their way to the inner palace, where Addison could finally drop her disguise.
Once behind closed doors, the Alpha King spoke more freely."My Princess, on my birthday, I want you to meet someone."
At those words, Addison immediately stiffened. Her father didn’t need to say more—his meaning was clear. He was preparing to introduce her to a potential mate.
Though he hadn’t said it outright during the meeting, she now understood that the upcoming banquet would likely serve as a stage for her to meet suitable, unmated Alpha candidates. If her fated mate didn’t appear among them, she would be expected to choose a partner, but it was more likely that her father had already had someone in mind.
After all, she was a Princess. And even though she already had children, her father still believed ruling an entire domain alone would be too great a burden. She would need a consort—someone to share the throne, and perhaps, the weight of destiny.
