204

**Rati POV:** 

I am beyond tired of receiving and giving all of that power was a lot on me. Especially given my condition. I haven't had a chance to talk to my mates. Storm and I are rushing to the conference room so I can get ready to be queen. Mom, Oro, Zavia, and Mōʻīwahine are in the throne room waiting for me like everyone else. 

“So, this dress I got the idea by looking at portraits of queens of our past”, Storm said. 

“I trust your judgment, Storm”, I said with a smile. 

Stormed held up a dress that any woman would die for. The dress has a transparent base, it is covered in white diamonds and sapphires.  I walked to put it on and I was in awe. On me, the dress looks like I am covered in diamonds and sapphires. The dress is a trumpet style and has a V-neck neckline. I look fine as hell with this on. I walk out and see Strom and Mason in the room waiting for me. 

“You look so beautiful”, Mason said. 

“Thank you. Is something wrong?", I asked because no one was supposed to see me yet. 

“No, I am here to bring you the crown jewels. It is customary you wear them”, Mason said 

That’s when I noticed he was holding three boxes. He opened the first one and there was a pair of huge sapphire and diamond earrings set in platinum. Strom took off the earrings I had on and replaced them with the ones Mason had. The next box held a sapphire and diamond eternity necklace. Strom put it on me and the shit is heavy. The next box has two sapphire eternity bracelets. Before Storm put the bracelets on me, she gave me some transparent gloves 

“Are you ready for this Rati?”, Mason asked. 

“As I ever be”, I said taking a deep breath. 

“Remember heavy is the head that wears the crown. Good thing you have two strong mates to help you with the weight”, Mason said with a smile. 

It was time for me to walk out. Outside the throne room waiting for me are my two mates. Both of them are wearing sashes with their pack crest and colors on them. Goddess, they are handsome, I should not be wet right now.  

“We can smell your arousal from here babe”, James said. 

“You know we can always skip this and have it tomorrow”, Michael said. 

“Nope, it took me all this time to get dressed. There is no way in hell we are not going to do this today right now”, I said looking at them. 

The guards opened the throne room. Someone blew a trumpet and everyone that was seated in the throne room stood up. Michael is being me to my right. As James is to my left. We walk in a triangle position with me leading. As we walked in those in attendance bowed. I kept looking forward and saw the thrones that were in the castle all three of them. We stopped at our waiting seats. We turned to face the crowd with Mason staring to the right of us. 

“Is Your Majesty willing to take the Oath?”, Mason asked.  

“Yes, I am willing”, I said. 

“Are you Alphas willing to take the Oath?”, Mason asked Michael and James. 

“Yes, I am willing”, they said in unison. 

Me, Michael, and James raised our right hand without being left over our hearts. I see our family and friends are sitting front row and center. Mom, Mōʻīwahine, and Zavia are crying their eyes out. Aldo, Taniyn, Vulverin, and Gar are smiling ear to ear. Oro's goofy ass is giving us a thumbs up. 

“Will you solemnly promise and swear to govern all species under the royal banner of the United States according to their respective laws and customs?”, Mason asked 

“I solemnly promise so to do on my honor”, I said. James and Michael answered the same thing. 

“Will you to your power cause law, justice, and mercy, to be executed in all your judgments?”, Mason asked. 

“I will”, I said trying not to smile. Apparently smiling is something I can't do when saying the oath. Michael and James said their peace as well. 

“Will you to the utmost of your power maintain the Laws of the Goddess? And the doctrine, worship, discipline, and government thereof, as by the Goddess will. 

“All this I promise to do”, I said with authority. Me, Michael, and James kneeled in front of our thrones still facing the crowd.  

“The things which I have here before promised, I will perform and keep. So, help me Goddess”, Me, Michael, and James. Said in unison. 

“This crown is a symbol of authority, granted to you by the Goddess. Do you accept”, Mason said holding a crown above my head. 

“I do, with all my heart and soul”, I said. 

Mason placed the crown on my head. I wanted to get up but me and my mates are equal. I will not get up until they are crowned. I guess Mason caught on because he continued to Michael next. He asked Michael the same question and Michael gave his answer. James is the same as Michael and I. Once we had our crowns on our heads, we grabbed each other's hands. 

“You may rise”, Mason said. 

Michael and James helped me get us as we raised together.  we turned facing our thrones. I wanted us to sit at the same time but our mates had other ideas. I sat on my throne, Michael and James knelled to me and pledged their lives to me. The whole room was shocked. Then they bowed to each other and took their seats. 

“Ladies and gentlemen, I present Queen Rati, King Michael, and King James”, Mason said in a commanding own. 

“Long live the queen......long live the kings”, the crowd said and I smiled. 

At the reception, there was a line of people waiting to pay tribute to their new rulers. I am beyond tired I do not think I have the energy to get down and dirty with my kings tonight. Both of my mates take any chance they get to touch me. I figure now will be the best time to show them they are not the only ones who can keep a secret. 

“Congratulations your majesties. A gift for the future heirs", one of the Lunas said giving me a box. 

I opened it and it was a set of gold rattles. This is the perfect time to tell them. We said our thank you as Ann wrote down who gave what gift so we could send them a thank you note later. 

“What do you guys say about us making an heir tonight?”, Michael asked. 

“I down for it”, James said. 

“I don’t know guys. I think you two might be too late”, I said with a smile. 

“What do you mean?”, James asked. 

“Yeah, we are never too late we are always on point”, Michael said. 

“My womb is full already”, I said smiling. These two look at me confused. I just rolled my eyes at them. 

“I am lost”, Michael said. 

“Gar always said I am the smart one.  Use your Alpha hearing and focus down”, I said. 

I watched as my mates did as I said. James was the first to catch on. His smile made me melt. Michael then caught on and smiled at James. 

“PUPS”, they both growled.
