The speech was almost done, and I didn’t even have the words to say how happy I was about that. If someone had told me that being a princess required public speaking, I'd have declined the role immediately. It did feel like a task I’d get better at with time, at least, so I’d just keep doing my best not to say anything stupid.

The end of my speech was a list of supes to thank. My parents especially, their shiny eyes locked on me as they smiled proudly. I’d not let them down today and that was a huge weight off my shoulders.

“I have one person left to thank,” I said when I was down to my last line. Finding his eyes in the crowd, I had to stop myself from leaping across this small dais and chasing him down. Whatever was happening between us, it was beyond anything I’d ever expected. These true mate bonds did not fuck around.

"Jacob Compass literally changed my life." All eyes turned toward the tall, enigmatic, hot-as-hell fey standing by himself. He didn't show a single sign of being uncomfortable that hundreds of jeweled fey were staring at him, or that some of those stares were less than friendly. He just watched me. With an intensity that people wrote love songs about. It made me feel so … much. My stomach swirled at the memory of our kiss.

"A few years ago I found myself in a bad situation," I continued. "It wasn't my first bad situation, and if my luck holds the same, it won't be my last, but it was the one that changed my life. I was rescued by the most amazing family, a pack of sorts. They took me in and made me one of their own. Jacob and his family are some of the most important supes in my world. As many of you know, Grace, another jeweled princess, is also part of this family, and I hope that one day Jacob and I can have the same dual bond between worlds, families, and responsibilities. I guess," I shrugged, even though my heart was pounding rapidly in my chest, "that's the moment all of my dreams would come true."

Applause rang out, but I was almost past being able to hear or acknowledge that, with my own senses going haywire. I hadn't planned on publicly "claiming" Jacob, and now I wasn’t sure how he was going to react.

Shit, shit, shit!

I really needed to write speeches down, and stick to the script, because when I went with my gut on confessions, it never ended well. Truth be told, nothing had ever moved at a slow pace for Jacob and me, and apparently I was very much to blame for this new leap forward. But this past month I’d missed him with an intensity I hadn’t expected, and in growing up and releasing my darkness, I could acknowledge that I wanted this bond.

I rubbed a hand over my chest as fey continued to clap around us.
