DRAVENPressure. Unending pressure. It’s what I’ve known all my life. From the minute I was born, the pressure followed me everywhere. It became a part of me, from infant into adulthood. I learnt to handle it, but some days could be worse than others, and today happens to be one of my terrible days. After the scene I’d just walked into with Donovan and my mate, my beast only craved one thing. Blood.The last few days have been horrific. Asides from the pressure from the council and kinsmen to hasten the mating ceremony, I’d had to deal with different conflicts rising here and there within and outside the palace. Our borders were breached again. Plus, the issue with Silver Moon pack that my mate once belonged to. After the unruly behavior of the alpha’s son and seeing those scars on my mate’s back, I was determined to shut down the entire pack. Esme had told me she wasn’t one of the favorites in her pack, and I had the gut feeling that they had all one way or the other contributed to

ESMERAYThe days that followed were catastrophic for me. It feels like after the incident with Donovan, Draven vowed not to leave me idle or let me away from his sight. I felt relieved though knowing that Donovan was no longer in the Lycaon palace and would not pose a threat to me anymore, but now I had to work, train, and attend meetings with Draven, which frankly speaking wasn’t as exciting as I’d envisioned it to be.The first two days in the office had me almost running mad. It was hard to understand half of the tasks delegated to me and Draven wasn’t a very patient person or good at explaining. There was so much to do and even though I was given the littlest tasks, I spent hours trying to put them together. I was slow, but thankfully, Draven hadn’t complained about my incompetence. Initially, the office set up for me was opposite his, but he’d moved my desk to a section of his office just so he could keep an eye on me. When I got lost on what to do sometimes, it was hard to ask

“You are getting stronger, but still not strong enough to carry my mark,” Those were his first words when he laid me gently on the bed “You do know, little mate, that I cannot postpone the mating ceremony any longer,” The bed dipped when he climbed in beside me.I closed my eyes as he pulled me close, wishing I could avoid his words. I have attended a few meetings with the kingmakers, and although Draven defended me before them, we couldn’t put it off much longer. They have wanted for a long time to make Draven their king, and now that he found his mate there was no reason for the postponement.Truthfully, Draven didn’t have to postpone the mating ceremony any longer. Whether I was ready or not shouldn’t matter, except he was skeptical about me keeping any more secrets. I wonder what has become of Silver Moon and Alpha Thane now that his beloved son was dead. And Ailana. I miss her, but I fear that I’d never have the opportunity to see her again and it saddened me. Once the mating cer

“You both look good together. You know I didn’t think for a second that a man like Prince Draven will settle for a woman like you,” Lady Abigail said ‘you’ in the most demeaning way I’d ever heard anyone say it. She was sorting through a large drawer in an ancient house that was stacked with different royal attires. Each attire had its own history and she earlier explained that every incoming Luna got a chance to choose the regalia she wanted on her mating ceremony as opposed to the belief that a particular dress was passed from one queen to another.“Abigail, I need to apologize to you,” I started, but her cold laugh stopped me short. She stopped searching the drawer and turned around to face me. I chose to ignore her cynical look and continued “The other time I accused you…”She raised a hand to silence me “You have nothing to apologize for, Esmeray,” she stopped and sighed “Briana was my only daughter, and she was beautiful….” She started to reach into her garment pockets where she

Abigail had fallen on her knees and cried at my feet after that, but I didn’t fall for her crocodile tears, I knew better. She killed her own daughter and blamed Draven for what happened. What sort of mother is she? But I chose not to dwell too much on that and focus on preparing myself for the mating ceremony which was kicking off in less than ten minutes from now!The other royal luna’s of the noblemen in the Lycaon palace had taken up the responsibility of getting me prepared for the mating ceremony after I made it clear I didn’t want Abigail around me anymore. I’m not sure what gave me the courage to dish out orders but no one disobeyed or questioned them. If I was going to be acting the role of their Luna, it was better to stop showing any signs of weakness around them. I hadn’t seen Draven since he handed me over to Abigail two days ago, but I was eager to see him in the next few minutes. He’d been tied up with duties of his own and wrapping up preparations with the kinsmen. Af

Second chances are very rare, and some believe it to be impossible. It is a known fact that only those highly loved by the moon goddess were given second chances.After Zayden, I never hoped to have a mate because I didn’t want Mena to suffer the same things in the hands of another man. I was better off alone, but I’m sure the moon goddess is seated cross-legged and laughing at me right now. How is this possible?As my eyes slowly started to flip open, I was half expecting it to be a dream, but it wasn’t. It felt too real, and the scent still surrounded me, enveloping me in a cocoon of warmth. My hands tingled from where someone held me. The electric current traveled up my arms and went directly to my brain, making it hard for me to think.“You are awake,” his deep, rough voice held a little bit of concern, or is it my imagination? This man didn’t care for me, and there should be an explanation of what is going on right now. I snatched my arms away from his. He frowned, giving me a d

DRAVENAs I held this frail being in my arms, I knew I was in trouble. I managed to appear calm on the outside, but on the inside, it was taking all the power I possessed not to rip her clothes off, right here in the middle of the ball, and take her in all the ways I’d dreamt of in the last three weeks. Mine.My beast was shuffling in my head, agitated, wanting to have his mate so badly. I’d committed her scent to memory in the last three weeks after finding out we were mates. When she was away in the temple, I occasionally had to sniff any piece of clothing she had to keep me sane. Her scent enveloped every part of me, and I was counting down the minutes until I finally marked her.I waited for this all my life, and now that it was in my hands, hell knows I’d never let it go. One of the hardest things I had to do in the last three weeks was keep my hands to myself and not tell her she was mine. I wanted to claim her as many times as possible. I want to be locked up in a room with he

ESMERAYMy thoughts were with my mate for the remaining parts of the event, and I couldn’t wait for it to be over so that I can be alone with him. I felt different wearing his mark, I felt stronger, and my need for him was becoming unbearable. The sexual drive was high. I watched him closely as he addressed the crowd, my hands reaching to caress his mark on my neck. I swallowed thickly. I was hungry, but not for food.“You can’t wait to be alone with him, huh?” Scarlett nudged me. I turned to her and gave a weak smile. I’d almost forgotten she was seated next to me looking all radiant next to her mate. “You do not need to be shy. It’s normal,” she added with a wink.I blushed “I feel weird,” I confessed. I looked over to where he stood again, and that’s when I saw her. My best friend. Glaring at me. She shook her head and turned from me, heading for the exit.“Whats up with that one?” Scarlett nodded in her direction and then looked back at me.“Old friend,” I whispered, and I shrugge

“Mommy, Darren says I’m not going to be king,” three-year-old Dayton told me teary-eyed “I want to be king like Daddy,” I glanced at Draven for help. He smiled and picked Dayton up, pecking him on the cheeks first “Oh but you are a king my little man, even better than your daddy,” “But I’m older,” Darren argued. The twin boys were exactly like their father and it made me jealous sometimes. They had his hair color, same eye color, same facial structure and they were already starting to sound like him at this tender age. I carried them for seven months! And I pushed both of them out of my vagina! Yet they didn’t look anything like me. A normal lycan or werewolf pregnancy lasts about six months but these two took their time before deciding it was time to face the world. “Yes you are, by ten minutes,” Draven told Darren. Though the twins were identical, it was not hard for me to tell them apart. I was gifted you see. Draven sometimes struggled to know who is who. “Can there be two king

My face was covered with Draven’s kisses by the time we made it to his former chambers and my stomach hurt from too much laughing. Our things had been moved to the King’s chambers and I didn’t realize how much I’ll miss this place until we got there. The King’s chambers were many miles away, so it was easier to come here. He dropped me gently once we were inside, and I moved round, noticing how lonely it felt.“Why can’t we just stay here?” I asked.“Because it is no longer befitting for a King and his Luna,” Draven pulled my hands and hauled me against his chest “I bet you will like the King’s suite better,” he assured me.“It holds a lot of memories,” I turned back to where a huge portrait of Draven used to be to find the wall empty.“We will make more memories in the King’s quarters,” he winked at me and my heart fluttered again. “Besides, you can always come here to spend some time if you please. There’s going to be a routine maintenance every year until our first son is of age to

ESMERAYIt’s happening! Hard as it is to believe, it is actually happening! If I had the power to, I would have loved to freeze this moment and bask in the joy I feel for just a little bit longer. I wonder why the goddess didn’t give me that gift. My beast howled in my head in excitement as I said my vows and took my oath, swearing my allegiance to the entire kingdom and my loyalty to the people, and my new role.A cut was made on I and Dravens right hands, and we shook hands, making sure there was exchange of blood. A charge of electricity flowed from my head to toe as we did, and this wasn’t the usual electric current I feel whenever Draven as much as touched me, it was different, making me feel even more powerful. Draven occasionally reached me through the mind link to make sure that I was okay, and I assured him I never felt better which was true. My beast felt more powerful, and my senses more alert.Soon after, we were crowned and pronounced king and Queen, and the crowd went on

DRAVEN“Where is Duron?” I asked Vadirr who was hovering behind me.“Right here,” Duron answered, casually walking into the room where I was getting ready to join the waiting guests. I have waited for this day for a long time, worked hard for it. My father had told me several stories about what to expect during the coronation and what and what not to do. Ever since I was born, I was groomed for this day. But with just a few minutes left before I am finally crowned king, I didn’t feel the joy that I thought I would.I knew why I felt the way that I did, but I convinced myself that I could live with it. Esmeray Grayson, the woman that would be my Luna Queen didn’t love me. The sparks between us had intensified more than ever. In the last two days, we have made love even more than the way we had in the past. She still reacted to me the way she usually would. I only had to look at her to get her blushing really hard. She squirms in delight whenever I called her beautiful. I heard the soun

By the next day, I had made up my mind on what to do. I took a fresh shower, washed my hair and put on a particular lingerie he’d complimented once. I covered myself in a robe and waited for him. I was not sure if he was going to come home or not, and I was not going to call his office phone to find out. But I made up my mind that if he didn’t get home by nightfall, I’d go to his office with hopes to find him there.I was feeling unusually nervous, so I picked up a book and started to flip through it. Seconds turned to minutes, minutes to hours, and frustration started to kick in. I lost the courage I had mustered and put the book away. There was no point, maybe I should just give up this ridiculous act. I’d just started to untie my robe when I started to feel his presence. Shortly after, I heard the front door open and my heart pounded loudly in my chest.I tightened the robe around me when he entered. As usual, he didn’t spare me a glance or acknowledge my presence in the room. He w

I’d tried to talk to Ailana after that, but she decided to hide in her room again and wouldn’t let me in, so I thought it best to give her some time to come to terms with it. She wasn’t the only one hiding apparently. Duron too did not show face for dinner and when I asked about him, I was told he’d left the palace unannounced.After my first shift, I found out that my visions were much more clearer and didn’t come with their usual headaches. That night, I decided to visit the oracle as I’d intended to do so a long time now but the events of the last days had not allowed me the time to.Smythe took me to her and I found Cordelia seated at her usual spot on the floor. She looked up as soon as I entered, a wide smile plastered on her face.“Luna,” she greeted cheerfully, quickly rising to her feet. I smiled back at her and looked around her room. There had been a few changes since the last time I came here, and I told her. She nodded her agreement and pointed a chair for me to sit but I

ESMERAYOn the seventh day, we laid the departed to rest. Draven had fully recovered and immersed himself in repairing the damages and compensating the families of the bereaved. He also made sure that those who had invaded his territory were apprehended. None of them went away scot free. Even those that fled, he’d sent trackers to find them and judgment was passed on them.The members of Silver Moon pack were sold off as slaves to other packs. I didn’t interfere with Draven’s decision when he passed it or try to plead on their behalf because I knew most of them probably deserved it. There were a few innocent ones though, but I could only hope that the goddess herself brings them goodwill in their new journey in life. If they were indeed good people, their innocence would vindicate them.Draven, however, avoided me like a plague since he left the hospital bed the same day that he awoke. I watched him from a distance in deep conversation with the new kingmaker and Vadirr by his side. No

DRAVENI cupped my erection as my mate did a little striptease for me. She looked absolutely beautiful and dangerously sexy in her underwear. She was shy, but with every second that passed came a little bit of confidence. She smiled at me, and her smile grew into laughter, but she stopped suddenly and started to get into her clothes hastily. Her smile was suddenly replaced by a look of fear, of worry. I watched her get into her clothes, wishing she would not stop her little show, but I started to get alarmed too at the worry on her face.My heart broke into a thousand many pieces when she started to cry, weeping like a bride who just got jilted at the alter. She was uncontrollable. A woman in distress. I reached for her hands and tried to touch her, but the more I tried to reach her, the farther away she drifted. My heart was pounding in my chest as I watched her drift away from me. “Esmeray,” I gasped, my eyes fluttering open immediately. I tried to sit up, but my whole body felt

“Drop it,” Ailana ordered her father whose gun dropped noisily to the floor immediately she said those words. Her face had a seriousness I’d not seen in them before. This isn’t exactly the type of reunion one would wish to have with ones father.“You are not going to kill your father, are you, child?” Thane’s eyes were on his daughter’s fierce ones.“You are not my father,” Ailana argued “You were never my father, never have, and never will be. I know you never wanted a girl child. The only reason you tried to like me was because you started to realize your perfect son wasn’t so perfect after all,”“What are you talking about Aila? You know you were my favorite. Zayden was a fool, which is why I was going to put you up against him for the alpha seat. You were better than him in every aspect,” Thane reached to touch Aila’s arm but she flinched and pressed the gun tighter into his forehead.“Aila-“ I stopped when a lone tear dropped from Aila’s eye. Her lips were clasped tightly. I didn
