His Queen (Royal Series #1)

C H A P T E R | 11

Hera's POV

After meeting Dante's parents, he took me back upstairs, then got everyone's attention. I was overly nervous, there were much more people than in my Pack. I felt my hands go clammy as everyone stared at me, judging my every movement. Dante held my back and pulled me to his side, then kissed the top of my head. "Tonight is a glorious night, I, your Alpha and future King, have finally found my mate. We will respect her, obey her, bow down to her, and treat her as one of our own! If I heard any gossiping, the person who said it first and last will be terminated," I thought that was a little overboard, so I held his arm, shaking my head. "Maybe not terminated, but punished. The coronation will be four weeks from now," I gulped and took a deep breath. I'm supposed to be a Queen and Luna in four weeks- we have to be fully mated then!

Dante pulled me to an empty room, then pinned me up against the wall, "I can't get enough of you, Mi Amor," he murmured, face inches away from mine. I could feel his breath fanning across my cheek, warming me up. I gulped as his lips inched closer, yet I closed my eyes and leaned in for him. I cupped his cheek and pressed my lips to his, moaning from his taste, minty. I lift my leg up to his side, then pulled him closer, hating the space between us. He needed to be closer to me, never close enough. I moaned and licked his tongue, savoring his taste. His lips were completely magic, sending me into a happy frenzy everytime they touched.

His hands roamed my hips and nape, not leaving one place untouched. He teasingly drew away, making me lean in and pull him in. He held my jaw and slowly pulled away, "Cherry is going to be my favorite taste," he smiled and kissed my nose again, making me blush deeply. My lips tingled from the intimate make-out session that just occurred.

I sat beside him during dinner, his large hand sitting on my thigh. The food was absolutely mouthwatering, I love the chef. Potatoes, steak, ham, carrots, squash, etc. Plus, there was an entire dessert table in the back.

I leaned on Dante's shoulder, absorbing his warmth. I was still super cold, but I'm staying quiet about it, I don't want to make a scene. He must have noticed my discomfort since he placed his blazer over my shoulders. I smiled and went to sit up again, but a grumble came from Dante's chest as he pulled me back onto his shoulder. I smiled and nuzzled closer to him, loving the safe scent.

I swung my leg up, reaching my target. The dummy's head flew right off, impressing Dante. He caught it in one hand, then threw it away. I'm overly happy that I'm able to train, it's my favorite way to spend time.

Dante looked extremely hot in shorts, almost mouthwatering. Plus, he wasn't wearing a shirt, so it's a bonus. I kissed his cheek and grabbed my water bottle, then threw it at Dante- which he caught perfectly, "Catch up, sweetie," I smirked and stretched. The run was in a couple of minutes.

All of the men watched me, apparently, they haven't seen a woman fight before. With so many eyes on me, Dante was getting angry, so he stood in front of me. I leaned back, touching the floor with my hands, then lifting up. Dante immediately held my shirt so it wouldn't slide up to my chest. I laughed and forcefully slammed onto my back, making Dante fling on top of me. His face inches away from mine, heart racing. I held his cheek as we hungrily made out. My toes curled from the intensity, fingerpads roaming the contours of his muscular back.

We both hopped away when someone cleared their throat, some skanky chick. I growled, but Dante calmed me down and stood up, "Care to introduce me? I am, after all, your mate," she replied snottily. I roared and lunged for her, but I was held back by MY mate,

"He's MINE!" I snarled and bared my teeth, showing her my grown canines. She smiled and disgustingly kissed MY man, making me tense up. I jumped up and slammed her into the wall by her neck. Her face had fear inscribed on it as she tried prying my hands off her throat. Dante grabbed my hips and pulled me away, throwing me to the ground,
