Azak POV Crysanthi portalled to just outside the borders of the International Werewolf Academy, and I followed. She examined that she wanted our best warriors from both kingdoms placed in the trees on the edges of the borders. We were discussing the logistics when a loud growl echoed through the forest. I was shocked to see that she didn't even flinch at the sound, but instead turned to face it. "Relax wolf, I'm a friend of your Queen and King, Princess Crysanthi. My King and I were just going over our own guard details to ensure the security of your Queen's coronation and ball. Link whoever you need to and they will confirm. My King will be portalling our soldiers in, perhaps maybe you'd even like to shift back and let him know where the best places to place them will be, or get a superior who can help coordinate." She spoke to the large smokey grey wolf that emerged from behind a tree. I was impressed by her calm and authoritative demeanor. She knew that Genevieve and Rayan woul

Crysanthi POV Azak kissed me so deeply that I was lost in his touch. It seemed that all we needed was a weekend getaway to werewolf territory for him to truly show his feelings. Waking in his arms was the best feeling I'd ever experienced. Before I even opened my eyes this morning I felt as if the sun was caressing my skin, only to open them and find my light wrapped around me. I didn't want to get up, but I did, knowing that the other royals would judge Genevieve if she had gotten coronated in a drab and dreary auditorium, so I added my own touches to make it look more royal. The elves had certain loved what I did with it as they hauled the new thrones in. Her coronation had been perfect. The way Rayan had stared at her in adoration the entire time was surreal. It only made me want to be that much closer with my light. He had knelt to her after crowning her and while the whole auditorium had erupted into murmurs, the only one I had paid any attention to was Andre. He had leaned in

Crysanthi POV After the alliance meeting I finally got to talk to Genevieve. As much as I wanted to share the night Azak and I had with her, it seemed too personal and sacred to share. So, instead I told her that he and I had an intimate night and she seemed to understand that I didn't want to say anymore on the matter. We did talk about fated bonds though, and how we were all navigating through them. Genevieve just laughed at us mostly while adding her input occasionally. Her Beta and Gamma had recently found their mates, so had her niece so there was alot of talk about navigating through them. Once our spa day was over we all retreated to our own accommodations to prepare for the ball. I returned before Azak had, so I hopped in the shower. When I got out of the shower Azak was sitting on the bed next to the garment bag that we had picked up from the village just out side from my family castle. I dried myself off as he sat there on the edge of the bed watching me hungril

Crysanthi POV A month had passed before I knew it as I spent most of my time Ember. We had become really close over the past month. I spent alot of time portalling us to the Werewolf Academy where we spent alot of time hanging out with Genevieve who had an ever growing pup bump. Which was the cutest thing! Azak and I had also began making it a point to have what the humans call "date night" once a week, as did Ember and Fioré upon Genevieve and Rayan's suggestion at dinner which we held once a week. Tonight was once again date night for Azak and I, as well as Ember and Fioré, so Ember and I were in my quarters preparing. Ember was a true beauty with her bright red hair and pale skin. Her eyes were a shining sky blue unless she was tapping the power of her dragon, then they turned into the brightest blue flames I have ever seen. The fire within her burned so hot that even the flames she created were blue, and I was completely in awe of her. She was settling into the palace nicely, an

Crysanthi POV I woke up later than usual, but as I laid in bed remembering the events of the previous night, I couldn't help but to smile. Azak and I were officially sharing our quarters, and life could not be anymore perfect. He wasn't in bed when I woke, so I quickly showered and dressed so that I could find him. I followed the pull of the mate bond to his office, where I found him sitting with Fioré discussing Kingdom business. We had all been working quite hard to rebuild the Dragon Kingdom, seeing as how Fioré had never had his own palace so there was only one castle for the dragon Royalty. I asked him where Ember was and he told me that Azak had planned a trip into the village so she was getting herself dressed for the day. So, I went to find my friend in her quarters. She and Fioré were still working through the fact that he had raised her, so their bond was a little strange for both of them. I wanted to see how their date night went, and to gush about how great mine had been
