Because the King would arrive in three days, they were arranging a small welcoming party for him, since it was a custom to greet the sovereign.
But, using the current situation as an excuse, so as not to provoke tension in the public, they decided to hold the welcoming party moderately. Especially after the death of the five alphas and with the five packs' problems they needed to sort out looming over them, toning down a little bit on having his lust met would also help make the King look good.
After all, he brought Lady Cyan and Nala with him, accompanied by his chief of royal guards, Leon.
Iris' mood turned even sour when she heard Nala's name among the entourage of the King. She was not so dense as to not see the desire in that woman's eyes for her mate.
Her mood became even more dour when Kaz suggested her to be the coordinator of the party, since it was her job as the Luna of the pack and she couldn't refuse it.
