Dane's POV
I would have waged a full-scale war to reclaim Raya. But now, she sits upon my back as I carry her towards the pack we are destined to rule together. Marking Raya was the turning point of my life. Now that I know without a doubt that she is my divine mate, I am prepared to be completely consumed by her presence. The impact hasn't hit Lucian as hard as it has me. He has yet to feel the bond of the goddess mate, but tomorrow, during the ceremony, he will understand.
Raya occupies every corner of my mind, but that's not much different from now. She is always in my thoughts, from the moment I wake up till the moment I sleep. I never could have imagined that she would turn out to be Selene's daughter. Who could have possibly guessed that she would be the one destined to be my mate
