Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 37: Eliane
Anala takes me to my first class, the rider’s class. This one, unlike the others I had yesterday, is inside. Today, it’s Cedric who is teaching the class.“Hello, Eliane. Welcome to rider’s class,” he says with a smile. There are very few people in this class. Since there are a lot of dragons and hybrids, I'm guessing it's not as easy for others to claim a dragon as it was for me.When we’re all here, Cedric begins by talking about our claims, about how injured everyone was and how we were healed immediately once our dragons submitted to us. I look around and see everyone nodding their head in agreement with him. I wasn’t injured at all.“And by now, you’ve realized that it’s very important to heal your dragon. We, as riders, have a responsibility to our dragons. They give themselves to us, wholly, completely. That means that if you injure them, they suffer that injury until you heal them. You should never, ever, lash out at your dragon in anger. The responsibility that we have to care
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 38: Ancalagon
I know my mother feels drawn to Eliane, not only because she’s my mate, but also because she’s Iniko’s rider. It’s not comfortable for me, knowing my mate claimed another dragon, but I do appreciate that my mother loves her for both our sakes.“What direction did you feel the pull to Iniko, Jewels?” Ishir asks.She turns her giant head, larger than my mother’s in her dragon form, and sniffs the air, then she turns to me.“The tiger?” she asks.“Yes, Ishir is my mother’s mate and he has the best nose of anyone, with the possible exception of Tesha. But she has polar bear DNA, and is pregnant, which is why she isn't here,” I say, stroking her snout. I know she’s nervous around all of the dragons and their mates that she isn’t used to.“He’s in that direction, tiger,” Jewels says to him.“Well, I think we know where she gets her penchant for calling others by their species rather than their name," Cedric says, walking up to her. “Do you remember me, Jewels? I am Cedric, Tana’s rider.”“Th

I don’t know why it hadn’t occurred to me or any of us to check underground. Maybe because we couldn’t find Iniko and Eliane and they weren’t underground. Either way, now we’ve found them.As Jewels begins digging up the earth, I hear the sounds of screams coming from inside.“ISHIR!” I exclaim.“Humans! I hear them!” he yells, leaping off my mother’s back and shifting into his tiger as he falls into the hole Jewels has created.I hear my father’s threatening growl. There are many sounds that a dragon can make, but my father and I are the same in this one. We are most deadly when our angry sound is soft and low. When I look, I see him and Merethyl facing off against what smells like an elf hybrid. He must think very highly of himself if he thinks he can take on my father and a royal elf princess. He doesn’t last five minutes before my father eats him.When I turn back, I notice Jewels is turned away from the hole, growling a low, menacing growl of her own. I look and see a fire dragon
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 40: Truda
**Slight Trigger Warning: Aggressive/Violent sex**He’s gone! I can’t believe he’s gone. Pyralis is dead, eaten by the earth dragon.“What the fuck, Truda. What the fuck just happened?” Banari asks me when we finally find a place to stop and rest. The dragons left, taking all of the prisoners with them. I’m not sure if Banari is more concerned about losing Pyralis or losing the harem he’d been creating. Many of those females were pregnant by him, Maccha, or Fordin, but mostly, I’d say Banari. He’s the one who was in there mating them every damn day, multiple times a day.“What do you mean what happened, Banari? The dragons just fucking attacked us and nearly killed us all for taking one of their own,” Galeus says. He, I know, is distraught that Pyralis is gone.“We need to find Iris. She’ll know what to do,” Banari says. For all his bravado and machismo, he’s a first-class coward. He isn’t a leader and never will be.“You idiot! She ran off with Gideoni and Fordin! She left us! We’re l
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 41: Ancalagon
I watch my mate sobbing over my brother. We had tried, all of us had tried to heal him. We can mend cuts and broken bones, but we can’t replace scales that have been brutally whipped from a dragon’s body.My mother’s distress had been bad enough. Then there had been my father, who was causing the ground to shake and shift, only balanced by Merethyl’s own earth element, keeping him steady. And now, I have to watch my mate fall apart because her dragon, my brother, has been whipped so hard that he may never fly again.We were, at least, able to heal his nerve endings, but without scales, flying would be too painful and he would never be able to carry Eliane on his back again. When Yhendorn and Kenna arrived, I asked him if his books had anything in them about dragons regrowing scales. He didn’t recall anything but said he would look.“How long before you’ll know if you can save him?” Eliane asks, still laying over his snout.“I don’t know. I haven’t had to treat a dragon with injuries th

“Ajax, are you in this class?” Cedric asks him.“No, I was making sure that Eliane and Cal got breakfast. There was an…incident.”Cedric looks at me, assessing me for a moment.“Jax, why don’t you stay. It’s Eliane’s first class and Cal looks like he needs to hit someone. You have enough control to spar with Eliane and then I can give Cal someone to fight full on,” he says. I don’t care much for the wolves, but I do like Cedric. Maybe that’s because he’s a rider, or maybe he’s a rider because he’s different than other wolves.“It's her first class, so you want me to teach her technique?” Jax asks.“Are you comfortable with that?”“Yeah, plus you’ve got Kendrick here, so if I screw it up, I’m sure he’ll set me straight,” he says, smiling at the Alpha wolf.“You know it, Jax,’ Kendrick says, smiling back as he warms up.Cedric turns back and looks at me, nodding his head for me to follow him. I grab the sword that I always use in this class. It’s my mother’s sword from her family, so no
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 43: Eliane
Avani is a very patient teacher. I wasn’t expecting that. He’s really good at helping me to connect with my earth element and according to him, since I have elf DNA as well, it should be the easiest element for me to connect with.“Close your eyes,” he says, his voice mesmerizing, like ancient words floating on a breeze. I do as he says.“What do you smell?”“People, elves mostly, but also a mix of scents, probably the hybrids.”“What do you smell beyond that?”I stretch my mind and my senses out. “Dirt, grass, trees, different types of trees,” I say.“And beyond that?” he says softly, making me feel like I’m going into a trance.“The cold of the mountain tops, the snow and ice up there. And then, there’s the heat from deep in the earth, the lava rolling around from deep down.”“Very good. Can you grab hold of that lava? Are you able to pull on it?”I frown. It’s a liquid, but I’m surprised when it seems to respond to my desire to capture it.“Yes,” I say.“Good. See if you can bring i
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 44: Ancalagon
I had intended to stay with Iniko until Eliane arrived. However, when Kaylani came up, saying that Everett would be there soon to run some tests, I took the opportunity to go have lunch with my mate.“Cal, before you go…” Kaylani begins.I stop, waiting. This could go in a lot of different directions. I’m sure my family has been talking about my relationship with Eliane and Jewels when I’m not around.“There’s been a claim put on you,” she says gently.I snarl. Of all the things that Kaylani could have said, that was not one that I was expecting.“Who?” I growl. If Kaylani wasn’t an elemental dragon, I know that I’d be smelling fear on her. But she knows that she has nothing to fear from me. I may be her Alpha, but she and the other elementals are nearly as strong as I am, except they only have one element.“Alpha Kendrick,” she says.“Fucking wolves,” I say, turning and stomping toward the main house. He’d known when he’d seen me earlier that I’d find out about his claim on me. And no

Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Epilogue 2: Ancalagon
One Month Later.I’ve never been so exhausted in my life. An Alpha, especially an Alpha of Alphas, should never be this tired. But with twenty-two mouths to feed, it’s nearly impossible to keep up. I’m pretty sure that whoever said it takes a village to raise a family was a dragon, because if I didn’t have the help of nearly every dragon at the academy, I don’t think I’d ever be able to sleep.I can hear my little darlings screeching before I can see them. The four deer I have in my talons will only quiet them for a moment. By the time I’ve fed every one of them, the first ones will be screaming for more food again. And by screaming, I mean screeching. It’s an ear-piercing sound that makes my head throb.As I fly in, I see all of my half siblings in various stages of assisting with my babies. Thankfully, the younger kids enjoy helping out and they can oil and scrub my babies as they shed their skin, which seems like they do every damn day. I’d think I was over-feeding them if they were
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Epilogue 1: Eliane
Three months later.“Iniko! Be careful!” I say to the little dragon, the perfect little white dragon. He hatched from his glass egg a couple of weeks ago and because I laid my eggs while he was still in his, he seems to think that my babies are his siblings. I don’t mind. I love that I get to see Iniko as a baby dragon.“Hey, little bro. It’s too hot for you to be here. This is a hatching ground. You’re going to burn yourself,” Ancalagon says, using his big snout to carefully move Iniko away from the hot area that used to be the medical center and is now a dragon egg hatching ground. Of course, I’m the only dragon producing dragon babies, and they had to put a barrier around my eggs since Ancalagon and I won’t let most people near our babies, but it’s still a hatching ground. Iniko hatched here and he’s one of the few that I let near my eggs.He’s always allowed to come see me. I’ll never be able to say no to him. He’s just as sweet as a baby as he was when I met him, sweet and gentle.
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 75: Ancalagon
The aftermath of the battle was tough, made more difficult by Iniko’s passing. Two of the people manning the harpoon launchers were killed, but no one claimed that they killed the third and by the time we went searching for him, he was gone.The two earth dragons refused to speak to us until I used my Alpha command to force them. Once I did, they told us how Galeus, Truda, and Banari had convinced them that we were the reason that everything had happened to them and that’s why they attacked. I still don’t trust Dion and Sena, the new earth dragons, but Kaylani has allowed them to move into the big house. At least there, we can all keep watch over them. To their credit, they’ve joined the classes and seem to be advancing quickly.The clean up took a while. With so many dragons crashing to the ground and the two new earth dragons rupturing the earth, it’s taken all of us to make sure that the big house is structurally sound for us to keep living in. The earth itself was easy to correct.
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 74: Eliane
As we rush towards where Zephyr continues to cry her dragon’s lament, we pass Iniko. My heart clenches, but I know we have to help the others first. As much as I want to go to Iniko, to let myself grieve for the loss of my friend and dragon, I need to help Zephyr. Iniko would have wanted that.When we get to her, Ishir has stopped outside the big house, holding on tightly to her as she cries her dragon’s lament in her human form.Ishir seems to be fighting his own tears and based on what Ancalagon told me, I’m sure he’s battling Zephyr inside her own mind. Nova and Brooke are with them, all of them have their arms wrapped around Zephyr, Nova and Brooke sobbing with her lament for Iniko.“Go get Cyrene. She’ll respond better if it’s you. I’ll help your mother,” I say to Cal.“Be careful,” he says before running inside the big house. I can smell a fire nearby, but that will have to wait until I can get Zephyr calm.“Zephyr,” I say, putting my hands on her body. Almost instantly, I feel t
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 73: Eliane
As I blow my elements onto my mate’s chest, submitting to him as his dragon and leaving my mark on his chest, I feel something inside of me heal, something snap into place besides our bond. Suddenly, memories come flooding into my mind, images of times in the laboratory when I was a girl, memories of helping Ancalagon when he was captured by the man who claimed to be my father, my father imprisoning me and torturing me to make me into the dragon I am now, my first shift where I destroyed the underground laboratory where my father kept me captive, shifting back because I was terrified of what had happened and seeing Iniko for the first time, helping him escape the laboratory. I remember being alone, being lonely, finding Iniko again, realizing now that he really did know that I was both the humanand the dragon, and that he and I weren’t fated mates. I remember seeing Ancalagon and having no loving feelings for him, being angry with him for leaving me and not coming to find me. I didn’t
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 72: Ishir
The moment the howls of alarm went up, I raced to the house, helping Zephyr get our kids and rushing them to the nursery in the big house. We have several babies on campus now, so we’ve established a safe room of sorts for the young kids with any mothers or assigned protectors going with them. I want Zephyr in the safe room. She’s getting close to delivering our next kitten, but I know she won’t sit this out. Two of her sons and her sister are out there fighting.As we rush to the battle, I hear the sickening sound of a harpoon launching. The sound brings with it the memories of fighting in the arena, of the days when the dragons were attacked. I thought the harpoons and launchers were gone, but obviously, some remained or have been rebuilt.I hear Avani scream in pain, the earth rumbling around us as he pulls on his earth element and tumbles to the ground. I know it must be bad if the harpoon brought him down. I heard in the past that he ripped a harpoon out of his wing and kept fight
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 71: Ajax
I’d been flying patrols, thinking about Emmi when I saw the strange dragons, two of them. I bellowed a warning, in case it was an attack and I’m glad I did. At least everyone had a few moments to prepare before all hell broke loose.It felt like harpoons were flying everywhere. Elemental dragons were getting hit and taken down quickly. I’m not sure if that was an intentional move by the attackers, or if the elementals are trying to protect the others. Either way, Avani and Kaylani went down fast.Zephyr is still pregnant, so she can’t shift, but Tana is up, blowing fire and protecting the packhouse where her pups reside.I realize that Merethyl was protecting their house, but once Avani got shot, she raced to him, working to get the harpoon out of his body. I stayed back, battling with the others against these new dragons. Since I was the first to see them, they’d attacked me together. Then Kenzo and Daichi, two other earth dragons, jumped in and we began throwing our earth elements ba
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 70: Ancalagon
This past week with Eliane has been amazing. Except for the times when she goes off alone with Iniko, sometimes even flying with him, it’s been incredible. I know I’m a greedy dragon, all water dragons are, but I want my mate to myself, all the time.Today we have mate bonds class. I love this class, not only because Iniko isn’t in the class with us and I get to have her all to myself, but it’s filled with other students who share a mate bond like we do.“Where are Tesha and Fenian?” I ask when we walk in. Those two are always in this class, Fenian wanting to make sure that he’s a good mate to his dragon, especially now that she’s about to have their baby.“Tesha went into labor this morning. She and Fenian are at the medical center,” Kaylani says.“Ohh, another baby. How exciting!” my mate says. I can’t wait for the day when it’s my mate going into labor, or maybe laying her eggs. We just have to get her connected to her dragon first.“I’m surprised that she didn’t want to go off into
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 69: Iniko
It seems like once Cal accepted me, everyone accepted me. Well, except the elves, but I was warned by basically everyone to stay away from them, Revalor especially. So Eliane’s first day back, even though she spent most of her time with Ancalagon in our joint classes, went really well. I guess being the Alpha of Alphas, what Cal says goes, or at least it seems so.If I’m not in classes with Eliane and Ancalagon, I’m in them with Ancalagon and the other dragons. There are very few classes that Eliane has without Ancalagon, but more that she doesn’t have with me, like mate bonds. Since she and I don’t share a mate bond, I’m not in that class, but she and Ancalagon are. I know that she’s learned a lot about what a mate bond is from that class. And while I know that she and I don’t share a mate bond like the others do, that doesn’t mean that I don’t love her with my whole heart.While the two of them are in classes together, I go to see my mother. I still feel the draw to her and even thou
