Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate Chapter 150


    Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell


    Chapter 150 Together


    “Then in the name of the Moon Goddess, I crown you as Alpha Queen, Ann Nocturne, ruler of the


    Kingdom of Veritas.” He announced loudly as he turned to the hall and stepped aside, allowing Ann to


    step forward and make her way up the few steps thaty between her and the throne.


    Ann’s heart raced rapidly as she slowly, but deliberately ced one foot in front of the other and Maeve


    danced excitedly in her head.


    She had never expected to be taking this position so soon, and especially not while her father was


    alive. An turned to cast her eyes across the room full of nobles in front of her who had stood as she


    ascended the stairs. No sooner had her eyesnded on them did they drop to their knees in respect,


    and as she took her rightful ce on the Throne of Selene, as one, they bared their necks in


    submission to her.


    Maeve howled her delight inside of her as she allowed a small portion of her full power as an Alpha


    female to ripple outwards from her very being, and prove once and for all to any of the nobles that may


    have held doubts, that she did indeed have the right to take this throne, and the ability to keep it on her


    own.


    As Ann sat upon the throne, and the nobles filed past one by one, pledging their support and allegiance


    to her whilst she ruled, she caught Adam’s proud gaze fixated upon her.


    Things would be even busier in her day to life from here on out.


    Ann was well aware that not all of the nobles were sincere in their pledges, especially after the


    whispers had started about her father’s personal affairs. She had a long way to go in winning their


    genuine respect and admiration as she didn’t want her rule to be one based on fear and submission.


    As Adam ran the Dark Moon pack as a well-oiled machine that focused heavily on inclusion and


    teamwork, that was how Ann envisioned her kingdom to be run and she intended that her rule be


    widely known as one of transformation.


    It would encounter heavy resistance at first, but she was hopeful that once they saw the results and the


    turnaround in morale within the packs, that it would be the norm.


    The threat of war would only add to theplexities that she would face. nobody could predict when


    the Excidium coven would make its next move and Ann needed everyone to be on board when the time


    came.


    “My daughter…” Leopold’s voice came, pulling her out of her thoughts.


    Ann looked down at where her father stood with a mixture of pity and disgust. The man standing before


    her was a shell of his former self and to look at him now, you would never guess that he had been the


    ruling Alpha King only days before.


    “I just wanted to tell you how proud I am of you. I know it’s toote to make amends for everything that


    you were put through, but I am and will always remain your father.”


    “By blood, yes. You will remain my father only by blood. Beyond that, I cannot forgive you for your


    crimes, your disloyalty, nor your weakness whilst leading our people.” Ann answered coldly as he hung


    his head in shame before her.


    “I’m sorry…” He mumbled miserably as Ann scoffed loudly.


    “Sorry will not bring my mother back, nor wipe the pain of my childhood from my memory. Beyond the


    official requirements that I am f*orc*ed to engage with you, I do not wish to see your face in my


    presence. Do I make myself clear?” Ann hissed quietly.


    Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.


    Leopold nodded glumly and when he lifted his eyes to gaze at her once more, she saw nothing but


    misery reflected there.


    With a dismissive wave of her hand, Leopold moved to the side and an elder approached from her side


    with a soft smile.


    With no more movement in front of her, Ann breathed a sigh of relief internally as she realized that all of


    the necessary introductions had been made, and the only people left within the grandiose hall were


    members of the Royal Enve and the omega’s that served them, Adam and her father.


    “My Queen, it is time for you to introduce yourself officially to the public.” He said as he gestured


    towards arge ss doorway that held a balcony beyond it.


    “The announcement that an Alpha Queen will take the throne has drawn thousands more than we


    expected.” He continued, chuckling lightly, “It has been centuries since thest Alpha Queen was


    crowned in our kingdom, so as you can imagine, there are many that are quite eager to see what all the


    fuss is about.”


    Ann nodded and stood slowly, making her way to the doors, pausing just in front of Adam, and offering


    her hand to him with a bright smile.


    “I cannot introduce myself to the world, without my mate can I?”


    Adam took hold of her hand and as they reached the doorway, and the doors were thrown open by the


    two omega’s standing on either side, the loud chants and cheers from below drifted up towards them.


    Ann paused momentarily as a brief attack of self-doubt washed over her.


    Would she be a good Queen and make the right decisions?


    Would she be able to make the right decisions for her people and be able to lead them safely through


    the war that she knew was stirring just beyond the horizon?


    She had trained her whole life for this role but would all of that training have been in vain?


    But in her heart, she knew.


    If she couldn’t lead them through this with the people that she had at her side.. then who else could?


    Adam’s hand squeezed her own rea*s*suringly and she turned to him with a smile.


    “I’ll always be at your side, Ann. We can face this. Together.”


    Ann smiled softly as he nudged her forward and she stepped through the doorway and out onto the


    balcony as the air filled with cheers from below.


    Adam was right.


    They would get through this.


    Together.
