After Magnus left for the Nightshade Pack, the room felt emptier than usual. I sighed, running my fingers over the spot on the bed where he'd been sitting earlier. I already missed him, but I knew he had duties to attend to. Smiling to myself, I grabbed my phone, thinking it was the perfect time to catch up with my friends.
I decided to initiate a group video call. Regan was the first to pick up, his goofy grin lighting up the screen.
"Finally, the future Mrs. Lycan King graces us with her presence," he teased, throwing in an exaggerated bow.
"Shut up, Regan," I shot back, rolling my eyes.
Within moments, Bella and Chloe joined the call, their faces lighting up with excitement.
"Oh, look who's glowing!" Bella teased, leaning closer to her screen. "How's the royal treatment, Your Highness?"
Chloe laughed, adding, "And more importantly, did you survive the big, bad king last night?"
