I knew it was coming.

I felt my palms sweating, and Michael held mine back tightly and passed his strength to me.

“Now, I have a special announcement to make,” Brandon said.

Everyone turned to look at him. Brandon paused for a few seconds to ensure that he had attracted everyone’s attention before continuing, “Today, I’ve inherited the position of the Lycan King. Just as I’ve just sworn, I’ll do my best to protect my people and country. I’ll ensure that all of you live under the sun with dignity. However, at the same time, other than the people from the Lycan King’s guild, there were no other players. I also have another identity. I am the husband of my queen.

“Courtney, she is my mate. Without her, I wouldn’t be able to stand here.” As Brandon spoke, he looked at Courtney affectionately, and Courtney responded with a gaze filled with smiles.

Everyone present could feel an invisible electric current between them. It was like a unique barrier between them that no one could break.

However, Brandon did not show deep affection for everyone for too long. He was the first to shift his gaze away from Courtney. However, I noticed that he was still holding Courtney’s hand tightly.

“As I said earlier, I can’t lose my queen. Then, as a Prince, one can’t lose his Princess. So,” Brandon announced in a dignified manner. “As the new Lycan King, I have to give it to my brother, Prince Michael. He deserves to have a Princess Consort today.”

My heart was beating violently.

“Cecily Levin, please take a step forward.” This time, it was Courtney who spoke. She looked at me with a gentle gaze.

I knew it was time for me to make my appearance.

I turned to look at Michael, and his gaze encouraged me. In fact, as long as he was by my side, I’d have endless confidence and courage.

And so, I walked forward, through the crowd, onto the red carpet, step by step, to stand in front of everyone.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime event. I’d never experienced the sight of so many people watching me.

Just a second ago, these people were still watching the Lycan King and celebrating the new king’s ascension to the throne. Now, all of their gazes were focused on me. The so-called attention of thousands was just like this.

I noticed the darkened expression on the ex-King’s face, but I ignored him.

Michael held my hand and walked up the stage step by step until he was beside Brandon and Courtney.

At this moment, I truly felt how high I was standing and how eye-catching I was. Looking down from here, everyone was as small as ants. They were all crowded with human heads. They were all witnessing the moment of glory that belonged to me. I was their main character.

This thought made my heart race. I looked at the people below me. They were all citizens of the Lycan King, and he had to be responsible for them.

On the other hand, the Lycan King was Michael’s brother, and Michael was my mate. So, to a certain extent, I was responsible for their rise, fall, and happiness.

I saw Courtney passing me my crown. It looked bright and resplendent, and I suddenly understood the meaning of being a Queen.

To wear a crown, one must bear its weight.

This was an honor, but it was also a promise and expectation. If I took on this crown, it meant I’d taken on this responsibility. From now on, my joy, anger, honor, and disgrace should be connected with them, and I should do my best to do meaningful things.

Thunderous cheers came from below and echoed in all directions.

I turned to look at my mate, Michael. He smiled at me, and excitement and joy rushed into my heart. I realized that my life had turned a new page.

It was hard for me to control my tears. These tears were not tears of sorrow, but the intertwining of countless complex emotions. I only felt that my life had never been so complete.

I had applause, blessings, family, friends, and the best mate in the world.

I looked at Michael’s face through the tears, and his eyes were always on me. It was like this when Brandon and Courtney were crowned. It was like this when I walked up to the high platform step by step. It was still like this right now.

Our gazes were filled with our pure love for each other. Like Brandon and Courtney, Michael and I also had a barrier that belonged to us.

I saw Michael raise his eyebrows at me, and the arc of his mouth was the same as when I first saw him. I could no longer control the turbulent emotions in my heart. Wearing the bright crown I just had, I took a step forward and threw myself into Michael’s arms. I exchanged a deep kiss with him in front of countless people.

Michael, mine.
