After sending her parents off, Addison watched them walk away in their official regalia. The Queen looked resplendent in a royal blue velvet mermaid gown with long sleeves that hugged her graceful figure. A sweeping train cascaded behind her, partially covering her bare back, and upon it was the intricately embroidered royal crest.
Around her neck hung a stunning sapphire pigeon necklace, and her golden crown sparkled with rare and exquisite gems, ruby, pink diamond, and blue diamond, all set into the regal metalwork. Her ensemble mirrored the Alpha King's attire; he wore a matching white and royal blue suit adorned with a long ceremonial coat, also bearing the royal family's crest.
Together, they looked every bit the perfect sovereign couple, poised, elegant, and timeless. Despite their age, their youthful appearance could easily pass for their twenties, thanks to their shifter lineage that slowed the signs of aging.
