Early Life and Education... and Henry Weedmonger. Spacedawg couldn’t help but feel a bit overwhelmed by all the praise and attention.
Needing a moment to himself, Spacedawg stepped out onto the balcony and lit up a joint. The cool night air helped clear his mind, but his thoughts were heavy with uncertainty. Henry joined him, sensing his friend’s turmoil.
“The speeches are about to begin,” Henry said softly.
Spacedawg rolled his eyes. “I’ve got a lot on my mind, Henry. Will I have to give up command? Marrying into the Imperial Family might mean I can’t do the job I was born to do.”
Henry placed a reassuring hand on Spacedawg’s shoulder. “Come inside. Let’s see what they have to say. You never know, it might not be as bad as you think.”
Back inside, the speeches commenced. The RCSC Commandant and Prime Minister Jean le Castor delivered heartfelt remarks, showering Spacedawg with praise.
Prime Minister le Castor approached the podium. “Captain Spacedawg, for your extraordinary conduct in the field and going above and beyond the call of duty, I award you this medal.”
The room erupted in applause as Spacedawg accepted the medal. The Commandant then took the stage.
“Spacedawg, your bravery and leadership are unmatched. Therefore, it is my honor to promote you to Major in the Fleet,” she announced, pinning another medal on his uniform. “This means taking on a more significant leadership role. For now, you’ll continue as the ship’s Captain until we assign a replacement.”
Spacedawg smiled, masking his mixed emotions. He loved his crew and his ship, but duty called him to a higher purpose.
The Commandant continued, “There’s one stationing I have in mind for you—working on Ottawa Prime as part of Le Castor’s Ministry of Defense. This position will allow you ample time for your personal life and your duties.”
After the party, Spacedawg and Dagbjort were escorted to the Canis Imperial Embassy, where Dagbjort had a suite. As they prepared for bed, Dagbjort looked thoughtful.
“I have a confession,” she began. “Canis mate for life. The Bonding isn’t a ceremony; it’s an intimate affair. When we were intimate, we bonded. We are now officially husband and wife.”
Spacedawg’s eyes widened as he did the math. “So, we’re married? There’ll be a ceremony to celebrate the bonding?”
Dagbjort nodded. “Yes, and there will also be an official coronation for your Princehood.”
Spacedawg smiled, pulling Dagbjort close. “Then let’s make this journey together, my love.”
They fell asleep in each other’s arms, content and ready to face the future together.
