~Amorelli~
After everyone was dancing or eating or sitting down, Mordikai decided to let me in on some of the events I missed while I was in my coma, as well as getting ready for the coronation.
"So, we essentially have to keep an eye out on those Alpha's to see who is hating who?"
"Pretty much." I shrugged as I made my way to my closet. Apparently, you're supposed to switch dresses after the coronation into something else. I still wanted to wear red, but it had to be something bigger. Something fit for a Queen.
"Hey, why don't you wear what my mother wore to her Coronation." I waited for him to come out with the dress and when I saw it my jaw dropped. This dress was huge! It was a red dress with gold patterns on the bottom of the fabric, as well as on the upper part of the dress.
"Oh, wow. That's gorgeous but humungous!" I chuckled as I grabbed it and lifted the bottom of the dress to look inside. He looked through the top of the dress and spoke to me.
"What are you looking for?"
"The Russian Circus! I think they're still in here!" I chuckled as he helped me put on the dress. I put on some black heels as well. I sighed as I placed my crown on my head. I stared in the mirror before I heard a throat clear at the doorway.
"My Queen," Mordikai bowed while holding his arm out the doorway, waiting for me to go first. I giggled and made my way over to him.
"My King," I took his arm and we made our way back to the ballroom. We heard Diesel announce us and after we walked back into the room, the whole ballroom burst into cheers and whistles. After a few more moments, there was silence as everyone bowed. Everyone then continued with their socializing and a few different Alpha's, Luna's, Beta's, and their children came up to us.
"King York, Queen Amorelli, it's a pleasure to meet both of you. My name is James Semyonov. This is my wife, Andrea, and our son Ryan. His mate Lillian sadly couldn't make it, as she is having a baby and is going into labor any day now." I smiled at them about to speak, when Mordikai spoke in a hard tone.
"Are they true mates?" James was taken aback, as were all of us. I know he is only asking because of those two packs, but he didn't need to be so harsh.
"Well, technically yes. Ryan's first mate died, and bless the moon goddess for granting him a second chance mate. He feels everything he felt with his first mate." Ryan gave a sad smile. I felt bad for him. It must have been hell going through his mate's death. Mordikai eased up a little.
"I apologize. There are two packs we need to speak to as they are forcing their children to mate. I'm glad you three could make it. Contact me when the baby is born. We would love to meet the pup and Lillian." Mordikai spoke and the family bowed. I smiled at them.
"So, do you know what pack they were from?" I asked as we were being approached by another family.
"They were from the MoonGuard pack. They are known for providing guards for the Moon Goddess." I was surprised. I was about to speak again but another family walked over to us.
"Alpha. A pleasure to meet you." The other Alpha didn't even acknowledge me. Neither did the Luna. Or their Son! Mordikai immediately noticed and grew enraged.
"Come back when you decide to acknowledge your Queen." Mordikai and I walked away and met with different packs.
"Kai, do you think the people who ignored me were from the pack that forced their children to mate?" Mordikai nodded curtly before another pack came up to us. There was the Alpha, Luna, and then a girl who seemed to be very upset. Her mother seemed to be comforting her, and the father was very arrogant. The daughter lifted her head and took in a deep breath and looked like she was breaking in the process.

'Mordikai that's them. The daughter smelled her mate and she looks heartbroken.' Mordikai looked at them and growled lowly. The Alpha looked worried and bowed immediately.
"Your Majesties, it is a pleasure to meet you-" Mordikai didn't let him finish as he growled.
"Who is your daughter mated to." The Alpha seemed to get the hint as to why he was enraged and went back to being cocky.
"Why, her mate, your highness. Who else?" He chuckled and his wife wouldn't even stand near him. We exchanged glances and I nodded to her. She took a breath and spoke.
"It was his idea, King York. I wanted my baby to be with her true mate but Arthur just wanted Pow- AH!" The Luna was silenced as her mate slapped her. Mordikai let out a roar and grabbed him by his throat.
"You are not worthy of being an Alpha! Vy bol'she ne Al'fa, teper' vy dolzhny byt' Omegoy! ('You are no longer an Alpha, you shall now be an Omega' in Russian.) Your daughter and her true mate will mate and become Alpha and Luna of your pack. You're a disgrace to our kind! If you do not tell me who you mated your daughter off to I will kill you myself!" I didn't dare stop Mordikai. I did see Alistair come through and I smiled on the inside. I was glad to see him, but he was going to be getting a little out of hand.
"Alpha Ivan! Alpha Ivan and I mated our children together. He promised me land and power!" The mother gasped and her wolf surfaced.
"I Aleshia Smirnov reject you Dima Smirnov as my mate!" Their marks disappeared and Aleshia silently cried as Dima fell to the ground.
"You'll regret that, you bitch!" Before he got the chance to stand up, Alistair killed him with the snap of his neck. I gasped and immediately went over to him.
"Alistair. You need to calm down." I held his arm as he stood there fuming, as guards took the man's body away. Alistair looked at Aleshia and her daughter.
"We will meet after the party. You will find Alpha Ivan and his son. You will also find your daughter's true mate and bring them along. There will be no penalty if your daughter mates with her true mate. Miss-" He paused, waiting for the girl's name.
"Nadia, your highness." She bowed, she seemed very grateful to Alistair. He nodded and continued.
"Find your current mate. Reject him. Find your real mate. He is around here somewhere, is he not?"
"No, your majesty, he is an Omega actually... He's still at the pack."
"Which pack."
"Darkfall." Alistair's eyes glazed over for a split second.
"He will be coming shortly. Luna Aleshia, I apologize for your mate. You are a strong Luna, and hopefully, the Moon Goddess provides you with a second chance mate." She nodded, sobbing quietly. I kissed Alistair's cheek and escorted them to a guest room, but not before Nadia found her forced mate and left him. He seemed grateful as well and went to some girl in the corner and marked her. That father was also fuming and I mind linked Alistair about it as I left. As I got them to their guest room, I was told that Nadia's mate was here. I grabbed her hand and nodded. She smiled and started to cry silent tears, and burst into joy when she saw him. They marked each other right away and they went back to the assigned guest room. I turned around and saw another dead Alpha male, presumably Ivan and shook my head in disappointment. I arrived back to Alistar still being in charge but I wasn't complaining. Alistair used his Alpha voice to make an announcement.
"There is now a new law. Anyone, who forces their children to mate with someone who is not their mate, will be prosecuted and put on trial. Or, they will be killed like Alpha Dima and Alpha Ivan were. I no longer want any more interruptions of the party, and expect everyone to forget this happened. Proceed." Everyone quickly started talking again, and after about an hour everything was back to normal. I sighed in content and sat on Alistair's lap as people continued to greet us. At some point, children come up to us and are admiring our outfits.
"That's a pretty dress Queen Amorelli!" A few little girls squealed in excitement as they flaunted their own dresses. One was in green, another blue, and the twin girls behind them in pink and purple.
"Thank you, girls. You all look magnificent as well." I smiled as I held my stomach. The one in the pink looked at my stomach and walked up to me. She put her tiny little hand on my stomach and I was a little confused.
"You're having three, right?" I choked on my own spit. Only a few people knew I was having three. Everyone, however, knew I was pregnant.
"How did you know?" I tried to laugh it off as it was a bit peculiar.
"I can hear and see them." Alistair immediately got up and found an elder. They came back moments later and the elder looked over the little girl.
"What's your name child?"
"Serena." She smiled and had a certain glow to her eyes. They were like the color of moonlight shining through the trees. A beautiful grey that's as captivating as the sea.
"Child, inform your parents to see me and the king and queen tomorrow. It is of dire importance. Alright?" She nodded and skipped off to her family. I looked at both of them and gave them a confused look.
"What the hell was that about?" Alistair had given Mordikai control again and they both sighed before the elder answered.
"The Moon Goddess."
