The next morning, Alexander behaved as if nothing had happened. By the time I exited the bedroom, he was already up and dressed, standing by the counter as the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air. His phone was in his hand, and he seemed intently focused on whatever was on the screen. 

“Good morning,” I said softly. 

“Good morning,” he replied, looking up and offering me a warm smile. 

“Are you working already?” I asked, glancing at his phone, 

“Just a bit,” he said. “We’ve got about an hour before we need to leave for the council meeting. I’m going downstairs to take care of a few things. I’ll meet you in the lobby, and we can head to the car together. Sound good?” 

“Yes,” I said with a nod. “I’ll see you then.” 

I turned to the fridge to find something for breakfast as he grabbed his coffee and left the apartment. 

An hour later, Alexander and I arrived at the council building. It had been quite some time since I’d attended one of these meetings. With everything so tense and chaotic lately, I hadn’t felt it appropriate to come. 

Ididn’t want to be a distraction–more importantly, I didn’t want to risk running into David or his father. 

But this was the first meeting since the wedding, and Alexander and I needed to present a united front. It was crucial for us to be seen together, a visible sign of solidarity and strength. 

Alexander stepped out of the car first, then turned to offer me his arm. I accepted it with a small smile, and together, we walked into the building. 

Inside, we spent a few minutes greeting the other alphas and Lunas, exchanging polite conversation and pleasantries. The atmosphere was lively, filled with the hum of quiet conversations and shared laughter. 

I spotted Alpha Derrick, but there was no sign of David, which was a relief. 

We made our way into the meeting room, where groups of people stood engaged in quiet conversations. Near the front of the room stood the king, his imposing presence commanding attention. 

As we entered, his gaze lifted, and a broad smile spread across his face. Without hesitation, he began walking 

toward us. 

I felt Alexander tense beside me, a fleeting moment of unease, but it passed quickly. 

“Ella,” the king greeted warmly. “It’s good to see you. How are you settling into married life?” 

“Well enough, I think,” I replied with a polite smile. “We’re already falling into a routine.” 

“That’s great to hear,” he said with genuine warmth. “It shows you’ve chosen a good partner.” 

“Thank you,” I said, grateful for his kind words. 

“Don’t mention it,” he said, his tone light but sincere. “I’m glad to see you back at the meetings. I’ve missed hearing your input.” 

“And it’s good to see you as well, Alpha Black,” he continued, turning to Alexander. “There are some important issues to discuss today, and your attendance is appreciated. 

“Thank you, sir,” Alexander replied respectfully.

The king’s attention was soon drawn to the next couple entering the room, and he moved away to greet them with equal enthusiasm. 

Alexander placed his arm lightly around my waist, guiding as to the side. “Shall we say hello to a few more people before things get started?” he murmured. 

I nodded, and together we moved to greet a few familiar faces, exchanging polite words and handshakes. 

As the meeting was about to begin, we took our seats. A buzz of excitement rippled through the room. Clearly, some people had heard the same rumors we had that there might be a major announcement today. 

But the king betrayed no hints of anything unusual. The first hour of the meeting unfolded as routine business, and I began to think that I had overreacted. Perhaps the elections weren’t happening as soon as I feared. Maybe we still had more time to prepare. 

But I was wrong. 

“If there’s no further business,” the king said, his voice steady as he slowly looked around the table, making deliberate eye contact with each of the Lunas and Alphas, “I have an important announcement to make.” 

A buzz swept through the room as whispers broke out among the attendees, but it quieted quickly, leaving a heavy silence. All eyes were fixed on the king, waiting for him to continue.
