Violet’s POV
Today was a historic day.
Never in our country’s history had there been a High Queen. We had had all sorts of regular queens: the wives of High Kings, the support for the true ruler. But never had a woman been named the primary leader of our country.
It was also the first time since the passing of the Unlawful Magic Charter that someone with magic wore the crown – possibly the first time ever. Not that the country knew that though.
I sat on the throne that stood a couple inches taller than the one next to it, the one where Theo sat. A vast audience lay before us in the grand throne room: every territory’s Alpha, their families, their Betas. Theo and I had donned the royal capes before entering the room, and they now lay fanned out beneath us as we sat on our new thrones.
