Alliance with the West...

Noah POV

I stared at him for a moment, waiting for him to laugh and call my bluff or something else but he kept drinking his tea quietly, barely meeting my eyes. 

"You do understand that this is my wedding, right?"

"I am aware, your majesty," he said curtly 

"Then why should I be told to take another woman to wife when I just did. Isn't that a bit cruel? Why should I give away my happiness just because of an alliance that will greatly benefit us,". 

"So, you're saying that marrying our princess is going to steal your joy from you?"

"Yes!" I replied immediately ignoring Reid who was trying to mind-link me. 

It was preposterous of them to think I am going to cower to their unrealistic condition. I am going to have one Luna and that's that. Slowly, the Beta rose to his feet, bowing his head slightly before me.
