Morriah pov:

The first few humans walked into the meeting room, and I had no doubt that my mates would be able to smell the amount of fear they had, as I could see so much on their face. To try to ease the two women and man present, I moved closer to them to take over questioning where my mates would be intimidating. My mates, knowing what I was trying to do opted to stay back in their seats, away from the humans.

"I promise we are not going to hurt you. I just want to ask you a few questions." I noticed that the humans were looking at Eric and Godric anxiously. "Would it be easier without these two in the room? I can ask them to leave if you want me to?"

One woman shook her head, "No. If it's alright, can we do this quickly?"

I nodded. "I will try my best, but in return I ask for complete honesty and a fair amount of detail in each answer you give. Is this acceptable."

The three unanimously agreed to the terms and I began the questioning. They were basic questions, if they were harmed while in Sophie-Anne's care, their living accommodations, medical care, basic needs. We finished quickly, as they asked. They were told that if we needed more information, we would reach out to them, or if they wanted to give us more information to reach out to us.

The next few groups were small in two or three persons each, and just as simple. It was over quickly. There was only two humans fit enough to interview left, and that would be my cousin and my sister. I was nervous, and my mates had moved to sit beside me. I had no idea how they would react to me, or if they knew of the plans the old Queen held for me.

They were brought in by Andre. Sookie, while dressed more modestly than Hadley, was still in clothing that was designed to be provocative. I wanted to begin to ask questions, not the ones listed on the sheet, but more personal ones, but I could not find it in me to begin, but Sookie did.

"Morriah is that really you?! Did the Queen finally bring you to us?!" My excitement was soon replaced by shock at Sookie's second question.

"What do you mean by that? How much do you know about why the Queen wanted me here?"

Sookie smiled widely. "I asked her to try and bring you here, that you were able to hear people's thoughts and would be a good addition to the court. I also wanted to see you again. That's it. I mean you would be fed on, but the special humans here are treated pretty well, so you'd be fine."

I shook my head. "That would only happen if you cooperate with complete submission, which I never would have done."

Godric frowned, "The Queen is gone. We are the monarchs now. As familial relations of Morriah, we thought that you would like to see her, or have another chance to see her. However, with your attitude towards the situation I am unsure how a relation between you three would progress."

Eric shook his head. "if you are well, and wanted to see your family again, why did you not visit them yourself? Your grandmother thinks you both are dead."

3rd pov:

Morriah stood, "If you wish to see our grandmother and Jason again, I am not prohibiting you from doing so. I am asking you to fo the best you can in the future, and not fall back into the ways you both were living. And for now, I ask that you do not contact me on personal matters, your thoughts have shown me what you know, as well as your cruel feelings toward me. I am sure with the information you know, that you will be contacted again. Andre will show you out."

Andre came in as soon as he heard his name, escorting the frowning girls out. Morriah flinched as their cruel thoughts reached her. Her mates comforted her, Godric gathering her in his arms.

"A lot of there humans came here without another choice, they have been here under such rough conditions for so long... Is it possible to set up a way to help these people integrate into society , help out with jobs, or something?'

"That's a wonderful idea, min lilla sol (my little sun)! I already know how to set it up. Let me go make a few calls." Godric kissed his mates' cheeks before going to find a phone, as Eric was the only one with a cell due to the possibility of fighting.

Eric turned back to Morriah, smirking. "He could have easily asked to use mine. Anyways, the coronation is in two nights, would you agree to be the date of Godric an I?"

Morriah huffed. "You ask as if I have a choice."

Eric chuckled, knowing how adverse his mate was to dresses. "I'll see if I can get Pam to find you a comfortable dress."

"Pam's idea of comfortable is far different than mine, however, her help is appreciated. I want Lafayette to come help too."

"I'll get him up here for you, Lover." Eric said leaning back in his chair, his hands behind his head.

Morriah straddled his lap, leaning down to kiss Eric on the lips before stopping. "No kidnapping him, scaring him, or casing any harm bodily or mentally."

Eric groaned. "Fine." He tilted his head, trying to get a kiss, only to have Morriah turn and kiss his cheek before getting off his lap and laughing.

Eric growled while his mate laughed, feeling Godric's mirth through the bond as well.

Godric pov:

My hand rested on my mate's waist as I lead her movements to the gentle music that was playing. We swayed to the music as Eric watched from the thrones that had been set up for us.

"You look beautiful, min drottning (my queen)."

"That's easy for you to say, min konung (my king). You are not wearing a dress." Morriah leant her head back from where it was rested on my shoulder, so she could have a clear view of my face.

"You didn't have to wear a dress, there are other styles of formal wear that you could have chosen." I offered. I had seen my fair share of formal women's outfits, many of which that would wonderful on my mate.

"Do you really think that Pam would have allowed me to wear something other than a dress."

I smiled. "It's Pam. I'm sure that if you show her a few good outfits, she might come around."

The music slowed as the transition to the next song began. I smirked as Morriah glanced towards the thrones. "Would you like to stop for a while? We should stop anyways, the crowning should be soon."

She pressed a kiss to my cheek as I lead her to my thrones. Eric welcomed her with a kiss as she sat in her throne between us. Eric grinned, "Are you ready, min drottning (my queen)?"

"As ready as I can be." She reached out to squeeze Eric's hand.

I raised an eyebrow at Eric, who answered my silent question. "The Magistrate informed me that we would be crowned when this dance is over. After that, the sentencing of Sophie-Anne will be held, and both she and Compton will be killed tonight."

I gave a feral grin, my fangs poking out from my lips.

The Magistrate walked up to the dias where our thrones were, as the music stopped and the crowd turned their attention on us.

"Welcome, Vampire residents of Louisiana and honored guests. We are here today to crown the new monarchs of this state."

A servant passed Eric's designed crown to the Magistrate, who in turn placed it on Eric's head. "King Eric Northman."

He moved to me next, my designed crown was placed on my head. "King Godric."

The Magistrate held Morriah's crown, designed by her, and placed it on her head. "Queen Morriah Northman."

Cheers erupted from the crowd as soon as the Magistrate quieted. I grasped hands with my mate, as Eric did the same. We stood together, hands still clasped. The Magistrate quieted the crowd with a gesture of his hand.

"Now, our new monarchs have requested the sentencing of Sophie-Anne and William Compton be public here tonight. These two Vampires will serve as an example for anyone who should attempt to go against any of your current monarchs." The Magistrate bowed to us before going to stand next to the dias.

William Compton was brought out with Sophie-Anne, forcing them to kneel in front of us. Morriah took a few steps in front of us."

"I bet this is a position you once thought I would take." Compton's eyes snapped up to Morriah, trying to speak but was unable to due to having his tongue cut off be Eric. She ignored him as she looked up to the crowd. "William Compton has broken the law by poaching humans. But that is not his worst crime. William Compton has attempted to break apart a fated mate from her mates, he attempted to take me away from Eric and Godric, your Kings."

The crowd erupted in protest, but a wave from Morriah quieted them. "The punishment for any crime against fated mates with true death. My eldest mate, Godric, will be the one to carry out the punishment."

I stepped forward as Morriah stepped back. I bared my fangs, grinning as I walked froward. I laid one of my hands on the base of Compton's neck, while I used the other to grip under his jaw, ripping his head off his shoulders, spraying blood on the closest Vampires, and myself.

I stayed in my place, seeing that the attention was one me. "Sophie-Anne, your precious queen, has harmed this kingdom and it's people. She has driven this state into debt and ruin. She has also attempted to force my childe into selling our sacred blood. She was also the Vampire to order William Compton in poaching humans, and to take our mate. For her crimes she has also been sentenced to the true death. I ask my childe, Eric Northman, to carry out her punishment, as he has been the Vampire under her rule, and has suffered under her illegal orders."

Eric came forward as I joined Morriah back on the dias. He, like I did, ripped the old queen's head off her shoulders with a sadistic grin before joining the two of us on the dias.

"Thank you for joining us here tonight." Eric said to the crowd. "My mates and I would stay longer, however we need to clean up and take care of business."

We inclined our heads to the crowd before exiting the large room to travel to Eric's home in the city.

Eric pov:

Morriah massaged her fingers through my hair, cleaning out the blood and tissue that had landed there. I was on my knees in the shower as I washed Godric, so my mate could reach my head. A pur had worked it's way to my throat, enjoying the attentions my mate bestowed upon me.

I kissed Godric's stomach as Morriah finished rinsing the debris from my hair. I stood, exiting the shower with my mates. We dried each other off before retreating to the bed, content in holding each other.

Even with my bare mate in my arms, I felt no arousal, as there was no need or want for it at the moment. She soon fell asleep in my arms, Godric pressed against her back.

Together we had secured a sound future fro one another, and while more trouble may occur, I know we will last through it together.
