Hey readers! I'm back with a sequel to You, My Queen!

So, I saw Frozen 2 and immediately started thinking about how Sera would fit into it and this fic happened. There were a lot of things I liked about Frozen 2, but they tried to cram so much stuff into it that none of the characters actually got a chance to talk to each other about something meaningful for more than twenty seconds. The purpose of this fic is to weave Sera into the events of Frozen 2 and to make the characters have some god damn full-length conversations.

Life is pretty hectic for me right now, so I can't commit to an update schedule but I PROMISE it won't take me four years to finish this fic and I absolutely will not leave the story on a huge cliff hanger for almost a year (my bad).

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy the fic!

Elsa stood on the balcony, gazing at the stars overhead. Noise from the party in the ballroom behind her drifted out the open doors, laughter and conversation she couldn't quite make out. She sighed happily as she braced her hands against the stone railing. Tilting her head further back, she closed her eyes, a small smile pulling at her lips. Things really couldn't get any better. She and her sister had opened the gates for good and welcomed the citizens of Arendelle in the castle. Tonight's party was just one example, a gathering for the guild masters of the kingdom.

And Sera was her date to the party. Elsa's smile got even bigger when she thought about it. She had been so nervous about telling the people of Arendelle about her girlfriend, especially after it seemed like Sera had betrayed them, but everyone had been understanding. Not just understanding, but happy, happy that their queen was out in public again and had found someone to love.

Elsa brought her hand up to her collarbone, rolling the pendant of her necklace between her fingers. The pendant was a teardrop-shaped piece of silver attached to a thin metal chain. In the center of the pendant was a small, pulsing ball of fire. The fire was connected to Sera's powers, which meant it heated or sparked depending on how Sera was feeling. Sera had a matching one that was synched to Elsa's powers and emotions as well. The necklaces had been Sera's idea, a way for them to sense each other's true feelings in case something ever got between them again.

She and Sera were safe, Anna was in her life again, and the castle gates were open. Elsa was happier than she had ever been in her life.

Suddenly, a voice called out in the night, pulling Elsa out of her reverie. She opened her eyes, glancing around her to see where the voice had come from. No one at the party inside seemed to be singing or reacting to the noise. Elsa frowned, her brow creasing as the voice called out again. A series of four notes, sung softly but firmly. And apparently only she could her them.

"Your majesty?"

Kai's voice came from behind her, startling her so much that ice shot from her fingers, binding her hands to the railing in front of her.

If Kai noticed the ice around Elsa's hands, he didn't mention it. "A guest would like to speak with you, your majesty," he said with a bow.

"Right, okay, yes," Elsa said. She looked down at her hands for a few seconds, then yanked them free of the ice. She paused, glancing around one last time for the source of the voice, then shook herself and followed Kai back into the party.

Kai led her on a winding path through the party, coming to a stop where Sera was conversing with the head blacksmith, Erik, and master jeweler, Asmund. Elsa moved to stand next to Sera, slipping her hand in Sera's and intertwining their fingers. Sera shot her a smile before turning back to the conversation.

Erik gave Elsa a half-bow before addressing her. "I wanted to thank you for the lovely party, your highness." He winked at Sera. "The flowers, in particular, are wonderful. Very elegant."

Sera nodded. "Thank you. I put them together myself."

"You should come see the castle gardens sometime," Elsa said, smiling as she saw Sera's cheeks color out of the corner of her eye. "Sera's been in charge of those for the last two years and at this point they're pretty spectacular." Elsa rubbed the back of Sera's hand with her thumb, hoping she would be forgiven for pulling Sera further into the spotlight. She knew she had when Sera squeezed her hand and smiled.

Asmund sniffed and Elsa braced herself, knowing from previous engagements that he was about to say something impolite. "I do question, however, the use of daffodils in the bouquets for tonight." He gave the nearest flower display a withering look. "That yellow is far too garish."

Elsa barely stopped herself from rolling her eyes. She looked at Sera, frowning when she saw her stiffen and clench her jaw. There was a beat of silence as everyone waited for Sera to say something. When she didn't, Erik, who Elsa knew was a friend of Sera's, cleared his throat and spoke in Sera's defense. "I think 'garish' might be a little harsh."

Asmund waved a hand dismissively. "Perhaps. But I do think I'd be more knowledgeable on the looks of things than a man who shoes horses for a living."

Erik frowned, trying to decide if this was a fight worth getting into for Sera's sake. Elsa looked at Sera, who still hadn't said anything and had a look in her eyes that told Elsa her mind was far away from the conversation. She felt the pendant on her necklace warm slightly and she quickly excused them from the conversation, gently leading Sera to a nearby corner without any guests.

Once they were separated from most of the guests, Elsa moved so she was between Sera and anyone who might be watching. "Are you okay?" Elsa asked.

Sera opened and closed her mouth but didn't say anything. Her eyes drifted past Elsa to the guests behind her, clearly not taking in anything she was seeing.

"You don't have to tell me you're fine." Elsa brought her hand up to the pendant of her necklace again. "I know that isn't true. What's wrong?"

Sera's eyes refocused and met Elsa's gaze, tears gathering in her eyes as she shook her head. Elsa squeezed Sera's hand and guided her around the edge of the room toward the door. She deflected greetings from a number of guests until, finally, they were out in the hallway. Elsa turned back to talk to Sera, but at that moment, several people streamed out of the party, talking loudly as they looked for the bathroom. Elsa gave them all polite nods as she pulled Sera up the stairs to the second level of the castle.

When they reached the library, she pulled Sera inside and locked the door behind them. She moved to the center of the room, then took both of Sera's hands in her own before speaking. "What's wrong, my love?"
