Leora's grip on my hand was crushing, but I tolerated it. I sensed my little sunshine was nervous. Tonight was important. It would be our introduction as a mated couple. I glanced over at the mark on Leora's neck.
It was healing nicely, but my mate would always bear my mark. It would warn any demon from her. Anyone who dared to drink from her would die by my hand. No questions would be needed. They would sign their death warrant if they were to sip from my mate.
We walked down the hall toward the stairwell where everyone was waiting. Members of the coven from far and wide had arrived. My parents and sisters were still not present. But I was sure they were all going to make a grand entrance.
It had been a long time since I had been with my family well my sister but my mothers were always there but they took vacation a few days ago, and I was proud I would get to introduce them to Leora as my mate now.
