Kash:
"I now announce Kash as the Alpha King of the South. I hand him my power, my crown, and my responsibilities. As I step down from the throne, I remind you all that you are in the best hands. May our pack prosper, and may Kash continue to thrive."
Lord Ronald declared this as I stepped forward, my hands clasped in front of me.
When I reached him, I lowered myself and bowed my head so he could place the crown on me.
As the weight of the crown settled on my head, the sound of applause filled the air.
Lara stood close to me, clapping with a wide smile. She kept looking between me and the crowd, her eyes shining with pride.
Around us, pack members watched with hopeful expressions, their faces lifted toward the stage. Several alphas stepped forward one after another, offering handshakes and polite nods.
Some spoke about their expectations for their packs, while others mentioned charities and alliances. I listened to each of them carefully.
