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.
