The Alpha King’s Possession

78. Under The Stars

MORGANA

The night had been magical. Not once did Kian leave my side; his hands constantly touching me, caressing my waist, brushing his knuckles down my bare arms and back, or resting on my behind. Kissing my shoulder, back, neck and lips.

His compliments didn’t fail, his eyes on me and me alone. Even when other single females approached to ‘congratulate’ us, it was clear their eyes were on MY mate. But even then, Kian only bothered with me, and I knew some of these may have been women he had slept with, but it was i n the past. He was mine now.

The room was decorated in gold and red, with the Clair De Lune roaring wolf on the black and gold banners hanging above. The large chandeliers glittered brightly, whilst candles and flowers decorated the entire hall.

Food had been served in a luxurious seven-course meal, and alongside it, there was a bottle of blood that I knew was from Kian the moment I tasted it.

A few Vampires were in attendance, and a few Elves, but Orrian did not come. I knew that, although he said he was busy, seeing us together was hard for him. I understood that but we were the past. Anastasia had come, along with my beautiful nephew. Everyone was very welcoming of them, and blood had been served to them too.

“I don’t know how the fuck you managed to dance in that thing.” Kian said when he led me off the dance floor, his hand on my waist as I tilted my head.

“With ease, as you saw my king.” I teased.

It was what I had called him all night.

With that crown on that I knew he didn’t like wearing, it was fun to tease him, I had adjusted it on purpose several times. He didn’t complain, getting an eyeful of my breasts each time.

“Yeah, you’re pretty incredible when it comes to moving, regardless of the way.” He said, his eyes running over my body. “Remind me again why the fuck we’re still here?”

“Because Alpha King Kian, we all wish to meet our beautiful queen too.”

I turned, looking at one of the elder Vampire who had accompanied Anastasia and Remiel. Also, the royal advisor that was appointed to guide Anastasia. Azrael had fired him from his spot as co advisor when he had become king and I wondered if it was Uncle Malachi’s doing or Azrael’s own. Either way, we had decided he would be the ideal choice for royal advisor. Anastasia left a lot of decisions to me, and I did what I thought was best.

“Lord Mikael.” I held my hand out to him and he kissed it.

“You look beautiful. I just want to say we are grateful for the remarkable hospitality you have shown us Alpha Kian.” Mikael said, smiling at us both.

“It’s a pleasure to host our neighbours, and Morgana’s home kingdom. You are always welcome here, I’m sure our treaty will be profitable for both of our kingdoms to flourish and grow.” Kian said, his voice as strong and cold as ever, yet I could see beyond that, to the man that my king was.

“Thank you, your majesty. We are already shocked at the level of produce that has been sent to our kingdom, without ever asking for payment…” He seemed hesitant as he said this, clearly shocked a s to why.

“I never gave any dowry, or anything in return for taking the most prized possession of the Sanguine Empire. Consider it a late wedding gift.”

He looked at me and I smiled slightly.

“Ah, but we all know our princess was always meant to be the Alpha King’s Possession.” Mikael replied with a nod and a small smile.

“I would say she was far more than that, but yes… it all started there…” Kian said, taking hold of my chin. “No matter what you do, a queen will never be anything less than her birth-right and destiny, she would even rise from the ashes of the very fire that tries to destroy her.”

I raised an eyebrow, smiling faintly at the compliment that made my stomach flutter. Once Mikael moved away, I nudged Kian.

“I couldn’t agree more. I am Morgana Araqiel, Queen and Luna of Clair De Lune, and I would settle for nothing less.” I teased, making Kian chuckle and pulling me against his hard, firm chest. I gasped, my heart skipping a beat thanks to his sexy chuckle that even made a few who stood around stare in our direction. I didn’t blame them, our king never laughed, well in public anyway.
