"Have you tried to mark Seren as well?" Arlan asked. 

"Hmm, and I scared the hell out of her that she could not even bear to look at me back then. My mere presence brought her distress," Drayce replied, his brows creasing at the unsavory memory of the early days of their marriage. 

"I guess I was fortunate Oriana was asleep and didn't realize what I did." Arlan let out a sigh of relief, but there was something else that troubled him. "But it's strange. There was something different about her tonight which provoked the beast in me to mark her. Something about her…"
