Angel's Pov.
Today was the day. The day where Xander becomes a king and I a queen. The day of his coronation.
I was currently helping Mama with the final touches on the decorations while also freaking out because I still have nothing to wear. I need to find a dress and fast or else I'll be attending this coronation in my underwear and that is definitely not something I want to happen. Xander wasn't aloud to see me for the entire day because he needed to go over his responsibilities with Papa for tonight's proceedings.
"Ok Angel, I need you to take this over to Xander. It's his suit for the coronation." Mama said as he carefully handed me a black garment bag with the royal crest on it. I nodded before exiting the ballroom. I quickly made my way to Papa's office before knocking. I heard a light "come in" before I entered the office.
Xander was sitting in one the chairs by the desk while his father sat on the desk. Xander looked stressed so I gently laid the garment bag on the couch before walking up to him. I gently rubbed his shoulders as I leaned over the back of the chair and gave him some kisses on his cheek. He relaxed slightly which was reassuring to know that my actions were paying off.
"What's wrong pookie? Why do you look so stressed?" I asked as I ran my hand through his hair. He loves when I do that because it immediately relaxes him. He leaned into my touch with a satisfied sigh before looking up at me.
"I'm having trouble remembering my speech. I'm so nervous about tonight because I'm literally about to open a huge chapter in my life. What if I'm not a good king? What If I mess up? What if I disappointed the people, my parents you? I don't think I could handle that." He said with a defeated look. I simply smiled and stroked his hair back.
"Xander, I understand why you're nervous and that's ok. You're gonna make a great king and you're not perfect so of course you'll make mistakes and mess up and that's ok because that's just life. It's ok to feel like you're gonna disappoint people but know your pack is proud of you, your parents are proud of you, I'm so fucking proud of you. You've come a long way and I couldn't ask for a better mate. You're gonna start a new chapter but you're gonna start it with me. We're starting this new chapter together and that's what's most important. As long as we're together you'll be fine." I said and Xander looked at me with unmasked adoration.
"Remind me to thank your mom for making you my mate. This is one of the many reasons why I love you so much. You always know how to make me feel better. Thank you for that." He said with a greatful smile.
"You're welcome." I replied before I pecked his lips. I walked over to the couch and picked up the garment bag before handing it to Xander.
"You're mom told me to give this to you. I can't wait to see what it looks like but I have to finish helping you're mom so I'm gonna leave you fellas be. Bye pookie." I stated before pecking Xanders lips again.
"Bye baby. Oh! I almost forgot. I can't wait to see your dress. I bet it's undeniably beautiful." He said reminding me that I still didn't have a dress and I was running out of time.
"Oh it is. You'll love it." I said lying through my teeth as I quickly exited the room and dashed through the halls straight back to the ballroom. When I got to the ballroom doors Mama stopped me.
"Oh no you don't. No one is allowed to see inside until tonight. There's still 5 hours left so you can take that time to get yourself in order. Go out and do your hair and stuff to look gorgeous for my son. I'm gonna take a sweet nap." Mama said before strutting down the hallway. He didn't have to tell me twice because I was gonna use that time to get me the most spectacular dress ever. This should be a piece of cake.

Whoever said finding the perfect dress was easy should be gutted like a fish. This shit was not easy and I only had thirty minutes before the coronation starts. Oh fuck me.
I tore through every store that had dresses and within all 69 I couldn't find at least one dress that was fitting for tonight's proceedings. I was running out of time and just as I was about to scream out in frustration my mom entered the room.
"Angel! Why aren't you dressed?! You literally have like twenty minutes before the coronation starts. Where is your dress?" She said and I sighed in defeat.
"I couldn't find a dress beautiful enough for tonight. I literally tore through an entire mall today and I came up with nothing. What am I gonna do? I can't bare the look on Xander's face when he finds out." I said as tears flooded my vision. I wanted tonight to be special but I guess that's not happening as you can clearly see.
"Stop all that crying and stand up." I did what she said and she analyzed me for a while before smiling.
"Close your eyes. Don't say anything, just close them. Alright?" She said and I nodded before doing what she asked. A few seconds went by with nothing happening until I felt something fluttering along my body. I saw light from behind my eyes and it was gone as fast as it came.
"You can open your eyes now." I did what she said and gasped as I looked at my reflection in the floating body length mirror in front of me. I had on a long beautiful cream tulle dress with floral patterns starting from the bust to the top of the skirt. The dress was so huge that the fabric pooled along the floor in soft waves. I gathered the skirt up and stuck out my leg to see that I had on flesh colored stockings as a pair of gorgeous heels graced my feet with an intricate diamond design at the back of it. My hair was done in an spectacular bun with flower clips the same color as the dress. A floral necklace hugged around my neck as matching earrings dangled on my ears. An elegant crown sat on my head with beautiful diamonds that gleamed in the light. My eye makeup was light but smokey and my lips were tinted and glossed. Now this is a look fitting for a future queen.

"There. Now come on or we'll be late. Remember, when you hear your name let your wigs out before you walk down the stair case. Your father and brother as well as me have to do the same." Mom told me to which I nodded and we left the room after that before meeting up with my Dad and brother.

Xander's Pov
I put on the finishing touches on my suit before putting on my crown as I nervously stood behind the curtain and waited for my name to called. My suit was colored in the royal colors which were a light brown and blue with black dress shoes.

The other packs were already here so I had wait a little before my introduction was made. After that, the introduction for all the other supernatural kings, queens, princes and princesses would be made and I to greet all the unmated princes and princesses. I knew for a fact that Diana was here and I was not looking forward to seeing her at all.
Just as I thought about running out of there the sound of the royal trumpets echoed throughout the room before everything was silent.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I give to you your prince, Sir Xander Lionel Wolf." The voice of the royal invigilator boomed before the curtains opened and I walked out with a smile plastered on my face. All the werewolf packs were here so the applause was very loud. I walked down the grand staircase and made my way to my parents thrones.
I stood next to my father as a sweet harmonious melody drifted through the air looking through the crowd I could see champagne-baring waiters and hesitating women with glasses of the number three positioned at a dangerous angle out to the side.
Men and women chatted amongst each other each sporting expensive an elegantly designed dress or a crisp tailored suit but their attention were more on us than the beautiful scenery.
The ballroom was beautiful. Banners of blue satin hung across the ceiling beautifully and the pillars were wrapped in silk the same color as my suit. Tables and chairs were organized professionally around the huge dance floor and caterers walked around with tray of red wine or champagne.
An orchestra of violinists, harp players and pianists were placed at the far end of the ballroom, and I could identify the scent of vanilla floating through the air. As the music came to a brief pause, the courtier's voice boomed once again.
"Introducing the royal siren family. King Edmand, Queen Crystal and Princess Diana." The doors opened and King Edmand walked out first before his wife came out and then Diana. I could feel her lustful stare as they walked down the stairs and one after the other the courtier introduced the other visiting royal supernatural families. I had to kiss each princess's hand and I nearly threw up when I kissed Diana's hand.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Kings and Queens, Alphas and Lunas. I present to you tonight's special guests. Our creators, their royal majesties, Lucifer and Helena Peverall." The crowd gasped as they heard those names.
This was actually a historical moment happening because getting to talk to the moon goddess was something spectacular in itself. Getting her to show up at your coronation? Now that is something that needs to go down in the books. The doors opened and Lucifer and Helena came out wearing stunning matching outfits and their wings were out and they were beautiful. Helena's wings were a translucent silver with beautiful shiny intricate runes covering them. Lucifer's wings on the other hand were jet black with a red hue on the feathers. Chantelle and Raphael was also here and they looked perfect together.
"Presenting, Crowned Prince Angelo Peverall." Angelo walked out wearing a neatly tailored suit with his crown nesting upon his head. His wings were golden with glowing white runes running along the feathers. He walked down the staircase and met his parents at the bottom.
"Presenting, Crowned Prince Angel Peverall." The minute the Courtier said that name an immediate smile overtook my lips as I waited in anticipation to see my baby. He walked out my god did he look beautiful. His dress was gorgeous and his huge pure white wings were out but what captivated me was the glow of his beautiful blue eyes staring directly at me.
Those eyes were like a deep whirlpool and the more I stared at them, the more I was sucked in deeper. They were like a trap waiting for someone to be caught by them and that someone was unfortunately me. His wings flapped gently as he rose off the floor and floated down to his parents and brother. The sea of people parted and bowed as the Peveralls made their way over to us.
"Hello my child. On this day you start a new journey in your life so I bless you with neverending bravery and courage. May you have a fruitful life with nothing but good things in your path." Helena stated before her lips lit up and she kissed my forehead. The gasps of the crowd could be heard for miles away as they witnessed the sight before them. She pulled away and patted my chest before walking by the crowd with her family and stood at the front.
"The prince will now choose his partner to start off tonight's proceedings. Let the ball, commence!" The Courtier stated and the crowd moved before circling the dance floor as all the unmated princesses stared at me with anticipation and lust. I simply paid them no mind and walked over to Angel before offering my hand.
"Would you do me the honor of being my partner?" I asked with a smile. I had to pretend like I didn't know who he was because his identity as my mate was not to be revealed until my crowning begins. It was hard but its worth it. He nodded his head with a small smile before taking my hand and I led him to the center of the dance floor.
(The Waltz)
After our dance, loud applause filled the air. I looked at Angel and I tried my hardest not to kiss him because he was just too damn beautiful. I led him back over to his family before walking over to mine.
Several hours went by with dances and introductions being made. Many of the Kings and Queens tried to make arrangements with me and their unmated daughters but I quickly shut down their plans as fast as they were made. I was so glad for a while only to re-enter my annoyed state when Diana latched onto me. When I tell you that the discreet glare Angel sent at her shook my core. I was actually terrified for Diana because an angry Angel was not something you wanted to see.
"Oh my god! Can you shut the fuck up please!" I silently yelled at Diana who looked taken aback by my statement. I was really getting tired of her.
"That's no way to speak to your future wife." She said with a cold glare and I groaned.
"You are not my-. You know what? Fuck it. I'm done with this shit." I said as I made my way to the center of the crowd.
"Can I have everyone's attention please?!" I yelled out and the crowd quieted down before looking at me.
"I have an announcement to make. I've found my mate and they are in this very room." I said and the crowd gasped while the unmated princesses screamed in excitement. Probably thought that one of them was the lucky person. Fuck no.
Instead of saying who my mate was I simply walked into the crowd before searching for Angel. When I found him I walked straight over to him before grabbing his waist and captured his lips with mine. The crowd gasped once again but I paid them no mind. I could kiss Angel much easier now thanks to his maturity when he shifted. He was 6'0 now so I didn't have to bend down to kiss him. I could simply just bend my head down which felt much more comfortable.
I released his lips and turned to the crowd once again. The other ruling supernaturals were happy but their daughters weren't. A satisfied smile mades it way on my lips as I saw Diana's furious glare.
"Noooo! This can't be possible! I'm supposed to marry you and be your queen not this mate stealing slut!" Diana yelled and the crowd gasped and I was furious. No one talks to my mate like that. Just as a deadly growl ripped through my chest Angel patted my arm before slowly walking over to Diana.
"Repeat what you said." Angel said with a smile on his face.
"I said that you're a mate stealing sl-" Before Diana could even finish Angel's hand lit up before he back handed Diana and she flew straight into the wall. She got up before hissing and disappearing into a puff of purple smoke. She appeared behind Angel and before she could attack Chantelle flew in and kicked her into the air and Angel flew up before delivering a skull crushing kick to her head that sent her flying into wall and she fell on the floor unconscious. Now tell me how the hell he did all that in that big ass dress.
Diana family picked her up and sent us a glare before disappearing into a puff of black smoke. The crowd was silent before thunderous applause escaped them. These people are crazy. I swear to god.
The loud ringing of the clock broke us out of our stupor and I looked up to see that it was midnight which meant one thing.
Time to become a king.
