Chapter 134

  Maia

  Damon stands up and faces everyone.

  ‘Let this be a lesson to us all, we must not fear each other, and we must embrace and accept each other's differences. Do this, and we can live together in happiness,’ Everyone cheers.

  Hugo approaches.

  ‘I hear you’re looking to hire a nanny?’ Hugo asks. Damon and I both look at each other and burst into laughter.

  ‘Hugo, I think we have a position more suitable to your liking that needs filling at the castle?’ I say.

  ‘Oh, what position would that be?’ Hugo asks with keen interest.

  ‘I'm looking for a knight, but he must be the best and most loyal knight I could ever ask for. So, what do you say, Sir Hugo?’ I smile at him.

  Sir Hugo looks at me with the greatest respect and kneels before me.

  ‘It would bring me the utmost honour to serve you, my Queen Maia, and you Alpha King Damon if you would have me?’

  Damon smiles and nods in approval.

  Hugo walks away proudly.
