Chapter 278 You are Perfect

After the meeting Ann, Adam, Bartholomew and Coral made their way back towards Bartholomew’s
office, paying no mind to the whispers of the people that they passed.

Ann had expected a little resistance and had warned Coral to expect a little push back from some of
those who saw themselves as above her, but to ignore it as much as possible and so far, she was
doing well.

The time that she had spent with Eva had certainly seen her grow from the nervous, anxious,
frightened omega that she was previously into the timid, yet efficient woman that stood before her
today. Ann had every confidence that in a few months, her confidence would increase dramatically and
she would be able to handle most situations with ease.

“Bartholomew will see to it that you have appropriate quarters assigned within the Enclave while we
remain here, preferably in our wing. I have already approved which suite I think would be suitable for
you, but obviously there are the finer details to sort out… furnishings, decoration, that sort of thing.”
Ann said gently as she stifled a yawn.

“Oh, I’m sure it will be perfect as it is, your highness.” Coral replied softly with a smile, clearly a little
overwhelmed.

“Nonsense,” Ann grinned, “Eventually, once all of the issues with the coven are solved, we’ll be moving
back to the palace and only returning here for a day or two each time. Hopefully only once or twice a
month if I have my way. Then, you’ll be moving back with us, and granted a room in one of the wings of
the palace to make things easier for us all.”

“We need to get Bartholomew hooked up with a computer that doesn’t look like it originates from the
dawn of time as well.” Adam offered dryly as Bartholomew chuckled.



“I must admit, email would make things far easier for communications, although, I still think phone
conversations are much more personal and allow you to judge the tone and mood of the person on the
other end far more easily.”

“Well, we’ll get started on modernizing the Enclave once we have the final report on budgets for each
department. If the incoming taxes don’t cover what we need then I’ll increase the cash flow from Veritas
Industries. We can look at expanding some of the departments and perhaps look at new ventures too
that will bring more in. As well as potentially offering new grants for the packs that are willing to invest
in their omega’s on staff as well.” Ann mused.

“We do also have the Dark Moon’s business and profits to draw from. I can have Allen go through the
finances and work out the disposable income available once all of our expenditure and other
investments are taken into account so we have a good idea of what we’re working with. I suppose once
Lexi has time to set up the lectures, the income from that can go part of the way towards increasing
available funds as well.” Adam offered as Ann stifled yet another yawn.

“That all sounds perfect, Adam. Thank you. I know Eva has sent me a lot of drafts for new design
projects that need to be approved before they’re offered to the clientele, but really, we need to start
working on finalizing the new blueprints for the area that will house the portal room. I’m more than a
little irritated that it wasn’t approved for here, we could have saved hours in travel time, but it is what it
is.” Ann frowned.

“Try to be patient, your grace. As you know, us Elders are a little stuck in our ways and embracing
change doesn’t come easily to us. I’m certain that once they see how beneficial it is, then I’m sure they
will have a change of heart. It was only by a slim majority that the vote against having one installed
passed. In another year, I’m almost positive that they will vote in favor of having one installed,
particularly if you’re actually going to make them visit the area’s that they’re responsible for.”
Bartholomew chuckled.



“That’s an interesting proposition Bartholomew,” Ann said thoughtfully as a slow smile spread across
her l*ips, “Perhaps a public relations tour is in order so that the Elders can refamiliarize themselves with
the kingdom that voted them into their positions.”

“That is a remarkably astute observation, your grace, I’m sure they would be… thrilled, at the
opportunity to leave the Enclave.” Bartholomew chuckled knowingly as they stopped in front of his
office.

“I’ll leave Coral in your capable hands then Bartholomew. If you don’t mind I am going to lay down for
an hour or two and carry on with the work that Eva has left me when I wake up. Honestly, I don’t know
why I’m so tired.” She scowled irritably.

“I would think it’s because your body has been through a lot, your highness.” Coral offered helpfully,
“That, and the fact you have three little pups growing inside of you and sapping all of your energy.
You’re going to need to take things a little easier now.”

“See? Pups. Told you.” Maeve grinned smugly as Ann internally rolled her eyes at her.

“I’ll send for you when I’m awake if that’s okay Coral? We need to talk about the use of the office block
that Adam so kindly surprised me with. I’d like to move the architectural department and specialist real
estate department that I used to manage into there and expand both departments, I think that…” “Ann,
that’s enough work for now. Rest and relaxation first, and maybe some food, before you continue with
this.” Adam interrupted firmly as she scowled up at him.

A million thoughts of how many ways she could argue with him ran through her head, but begrudgingly,
she had to accept that he was right.

Right now she had to listen to her body and rest when it told her to, for the sake of the three little lives
that were growing so rapidly inside of her.



“Fine.” She relented with a sigh, “But just so you know, I would much rather be working than letting
everyone else run around after me while I sleep. I need more hours in the day.”

“No. You do not.” Adam frowned, “Because all you would end up doing is spending more time working
and less time resting. The work will still be there when you wake up.”

“Says the Alpha who used to sleep only a few hours a night.” Ann retorted with a snort as he steered
her onwards down the corridor.

“That’s the key phrase Ann. Used to. My priorities changed when I met you, and while I don’t neglect
my responsibilities in the Dark Moon or our company, I make sure that we have time together. Whereas
you are still spending the time that I allocated for us, on work.”

“Alright, alright, I get it. I’m a terrible mate choosing the kingdom over our bond.” Ann bit back
sarcastically as Adam chuckled.

“I never said that. You are perfect, Ann,” He said, wrapping his arm around her tightly, “I wouldn’t
change you for the world. Despite everything, you are still working to improve the lives of the people
within your kingdom, but you also need to remember to take time for yourself. I’m doing my job as your
mate, and your consort, to remind you that you need downtime too. We’re going to have three little
pups running around before you know it.”

“SEE?! PUPS!!!!” Maeve yelled triumphantly in her head as Ann winced at the sudden outburst and
communicated her annoyance.

“Okay lover boy. I’m going to set aside the next few hours for resting, and I’ll make sure that Coral adds
allocated rest periods for while I’m carrying these babies, okay?”



“Sounds perfect.” Adam murmured as he planted a k*iss on the top of her head and they continued on
their way through the corridors.
