Another Chance for the Luna Queen novel

Chapter 0338 Ella POV In all the chaos and confusion of the last few days , I had completely forgotten that Alexander and I were supposed to be hosting a party to celebrate the beginning of construction on the solar farm .

It was an unnecessary PR move an opportunity for people to speak with Alexander and be reminded of the good he was doing for the kingdom in the lead up to the election In light of Archers release the other day , the party had become even more important .

We had to put up a strong front , to show that we werent intimidated or swayed into changing our plans over a little tension .

I wished more than anything that we didnt have to do this , but it wasnt avoidable .

I couldnt leave Alexander to handle it alone , forcing him to make excuses for me though he had offered .

The event was being hosted in the office building , which apparently had a very nice event space I had yet to see .

At the very least , if I truly needed to slip away , I was just one elevator ride from the apartment .

Alexander was dressed in a perfectly tailored suit that accentuated his broad shoulders and long legs , while I wore a soft blue dress that fell just below my knees , paired with the diamond jewelry set he had given me as a gift at my wedding to David .

I knew we looked incredible together the photos from the event would be striking , casting us in the best possible light .

But that did little to ease my tension .

Are you sure you want to do this ? Alexander asked , studying me closely .

I can tell everyone youre feeling unwell .

That will just start pregnancy rumors , I joked .

To my surprise , a faint flush crept up Alexanders cheeks , and he quickly averted his gaze .

I smiled but refrained from teasing him .

He was already stressed enough I wasnt about to add to it .

Im sure that I want to come , I said , stepping forward and taking his hand in mine .

Alexander smiled , lacing his fingers with mine .

All right , he said .

I wont ask again .

Good , I replied .

Then lets get down there people are already arriving .

Hand in hand, we left the apartment and made our way down to the event space .

It was beautifully decorated , with a quartet playing soft music .

Some of our guests had already arrived , milling about , greeting each other , and sipping colorful cocktails that the staff were serving from a bar near the entrance .

I saw Alexander glance at it briefly , but he refrained , and we continued inside .

The first Alpha and Luna we greeted just happened to be Damiens parents .

Its nice to see you again , I said with a bright smile .

The last time we had spoken to them had been at Davids wedding announcement , when Alexander and I had reminded him of the land he owed me .

Danica beamed and pulled me in for a warm hug , which I happily returned , while Alistair clasped Alexanders hand in a firm greeting .

So glad to see this project moving forward , Alistair said .

Its a brilliant move .

It was all Ellas idea , Alexander replied , nodding toward me .

Unfortunately , he couldnt join us tonight its my mothers birthday .

Good man , Danica said approvingly .

Hes got his priorities straight .

Family should always come first , Alexander agreed .

Please , enjoy yourselves , I added .

Weve got to make the rounds , but Im sure well get a chance to speak again before the night is over .

Of course , Alistair said with a nod .

Alexander and I moved through the room , greeting each Alpha and Luna as they arrived , thanking them for coming , and inviting them to enjoy the drinks and food .

The conversations followed a familiar rhythm enthusiasm for the solar project , questions about expansion if it proved successful , and discussions on how it could benefit more packs over time .

But inevitably , the topic shifted to the election .

Alexander had announced his candidacy , and while most people expressed their support , a few admitted they hadnt yet made up their minds .
