His Mating Concerns

King Kael, meanwhile, was busy personally overseeing the preparations for the ceremony. It was unheard of for the king to be involved in such activities, it was usually the Queen mother or some female relatives of the king who would do it but seeing as he did not have any he undertook the task himself.

He had seen a glimpse of what his mate had gone through before coming to Kwall and he just wanted her to have a ceremony which would be talked about for years to come. He also remembered her attempt to run away and even though she seemed not to be thinking about that he wanted her to feel as welcomed as possible.

And in his opinion throwing a lavish ceremony that would be the envy of everyone was enough to let her know how much he treasured her. After all is that not women liked? A man who was willing to indulge their every fantasy.
