Chapter 80

• DRAVEN’S POV
• With the coronation ceremony fast approaching, many lycan and werewolf alphas have been clamoring for an invitation. The Luna’s are making conscious efforts to befriend my mate, and she happens to be doing well with her duties so far. Esmeray Grayson has impressed me. From being the timid girl to speaking up and offering her ideas. It’s weird that my beast enjoys her little challenges. If another man that wasn’t Duron or Vadirr dared to object to my laws and punishment, I made sure they didn’t live long enough to apologize. With her, things were different.
• I’ve tried in many ways to break her stronghold on me, to convince myself that I didn’t enjoy her company and that the only reason I was attracted to her was the simple fact that she was my mate and carried my mark. But I was wrong. Her kind-heartedness and willingness to see the good in every situation were her best features. She was smart, smarter than I’d given her credit for in the past. She has adapted pretty well to the Lycaon palace, taking her lessons seriously and already looking like royalty. She moved with the grace of a luna now without even realizing it. Indeed she was made specifically for me. She brings out a side of me I’d never thought I had.
