The Alpha King's Witch Bride

Later that night, I was in my bedroom, sitting in front of my mirror.

Caroline was helping me make my hair and didn’t bother me with any questions or exciting gossip tonight. Her expression was also solemn.

I wore a blood red gown with long sleeves, representing the pack’s signature colour.

Tonight, Kaelos and I will be going live to simultaneously broadcast Elder Davina’s funeral ritual and also to announce once and for all that I’m the new Luna Queen of the continent.

I wasn’t exactly sure if doing both things at once would be a good idea but Kaelos insisted... And I didn’t want to push him. He was trying hard to mask his emotions, to be the strong, ruthless Alpha King everyone expected him to be.

But I could tell Davina’s death was perhaps the final crack in the already weakening icy walls in his heart.

"All set, ma’am." Caroline finally muttered, stepping away from me after brushing my hair gently with her hand.

I slowly got on my feet, checking my hair out. It was made into stylish wavy tresses that reached my waist.

But I only smiled wryly, turning my gaze to Caroline and giving her a small nod. "Thanks, Car."

She smiled as well but didn’t say anything. I don’t know why but the look in her eyes... It was like someone who knew something but was keeping it to herself.

The question is... What could that be?

"The people are waiting outside." Caroline coughed when I stared for too long, parting aside strands of her hair.
