Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 6: Iniko
Once again, Jewels has protected me, saved me from the ones who attack us. I wasn’t expecting that Ancalagon would be so determined to find Eliane. He brought a different dragon with him this time, another green one. Both dragons were large, larger than me, but only Ancalagon is as large as Jewels.They said they wanted to help me and Eliane, but when I didn’t tell him where Eliane was, he began ordering me to tell him.I refuse to betray her. I will never betray her. When his command washed over me, trying to force me to his will, I had screamed in fear and that was all it took for her to come. Jewels, my constant savior. I’m not sure what would have happened to me if I’d had to live this life without her. She is my everything.When she tells me to follow her, I do. I know she’s looking for another safe place for us to hide. As we fly, I watch her swoop down over a herd of deer, snatching one in her talons and tossing it in her mouth whole. I marvel at her grace and beauty, loving th
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 7: Ancalagon
My father was right. Eliane and her dragon don’t know about each other. Or at least, her dragon doesn’t know she has a human form. I don’t even know how that’s possible, but I intend to ask Doc Everett.“I swear I was just trying to talk to him, Cal,” Ajax says. I know he feels my anger and frustration. I’m not angry at him. I saw what he was doing. He was trying to engage Snow, or Iniko, as Jewels calls him, in a conversation.“I don’t blame you. I blame HIM!” I bellow. “He knew you weren’t going to hurt him, but he didn’t like it that she was starting to listen to me, so he lied, cried out, knowing she would respond and turn on us.”I roar, hot flames flying out of my mouth, but I fly through them unscathed. “That….creature is NOT my brother. He is deceitful. He wants my mate and he’s willing to manipulate her so he can have her. I won’t allow it,” I say, turning to look at Ajax.He’s flying slower than usual, and it takes me a minute to realize that he’s injured.“JAX! WHAT THE FUC
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 8: Eliane
I jolt awake, my movements waking Snow.“Are you okay? I had a terrible dream that something bad happened to you,” I ask. I had another dream about being attacked by two dragons, one of them being Ancalagon.We still see him flying in the air and I know he’s searching for Snow. I don’t know why he wants him, or if he’s really trying to kill him, but why else would he care enough to still be searching for him.I look around. “You’ve moved us again. Did Ancalagon attack you? I remember seeing him, then I passed out.”He nuzzles me, letting me know that he’s okay. I wrap my arms around his snout and take a keep breath of his snowy scent. He smells like what I imagine it smells like in the pictures I’ve seen of large snowcapped mountains where humans haven’t tainted the earth. Crisp and clean, cold and earthy.“I need food, Snow. Did you eat?”That’s another thing, every time I pass out, I wake up famished as if my body is running marathons while I’m unconsious. Maybe I’m out longer than
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 9: Ancalagon
The morning after I cried my dragon’s lament, I wake to Cyrene rubbing her little hand on my face.“Calgon, wake up. Wake up, Calgon,” she says, in her sweet toddler voice.I don’t open my eyes, but I growl softly, immediately eliciting her very high-pitched squeal of excitement.“Who dares to wake the dragon from his sleep?” I say, keeping my eyes closed and my voice deep.“Me! Me!” she says excitedly.“And who are you, little one?” I growl lowly at her.“Pwincess Cywene!”“Princess, you say?”“Mmmhmm!” she’s so excited by our game that she’s squirming around on what’s left of the bed. I make sure to keep my arm around her so she doesn’t fall off.“And does the Princess think she’s strong enough to claim a dragon?” I growl.“I have dis,” she says, showing me her hand with my mark on it. I open my eyes, taking her hand and kissing her mark.“Oh, well then, you are a Princess, indeed. Only the Alpha of Dragons can give you that. You must belong to him,” I say, blowing on the mark and w
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 10: Iniko
Eliane’s questions to me answered mine about her feelings for me. She doesn’t feel the mate bond for me like a dragon does. That’s okay. She doesn’t seem to understand that I’ll never leave her to go looking for my mate. She IS my mate. In her human form and her dragon form, my love for her is unending and undying.She also thinks I’m ticklish. I’m not. It’s her touch that makes my body shiver like that. I love when she runs her fingers over my scales, touching me gently. And yes, my body responded to her touch. I hadn’t meant to embarrass her, but I’m glad that she realizes that I’m aroused by her. I want to have everything with her, the life she talked about, a home, love, baby dragons, all of it. I hope that when I shift and we can talk about it, that she wants those things too.I love laying in the sun, listening to her dreams for us. Even when she talks about me going to find my mate, it makes me smile. The things she expects me to do and have with my mate I do want, with her.Wh
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 11: Eliane
Once again, I jerk awake from dreams of being attacked. Only this time in my dream, Snow wasn’t anywhere around, it was just me facing off against the Mean Ones and some other new ones who have joined their group.The first thing I notice when I come awake is that Snow isn’t here. I start to get up, needing to make sure he's okay, but I find myself pinned down by an arm; a warm, large, masculine arm. My eyes widen and my heart rate speeds up. I turn and look behind me seeing a man, a very naked man, sleeping with his body curled up around mine. He has the same wintery scent that Snow has and as I watch, his eyes open, flashing like opals before settling on a bluish color.“Good morning,” he says as if I’ve woken up with him every day of my life.I jump up, ready to run.“Elaine, no! It’s me. Don’t you recognize me?”I turn, anger blazing in my blood. “What did you do? What did you do with my dragon?” I growl, the earth underneath us rumbling. I’ve never been quite sure what my father
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 12: Ancalagon
After getting ready, I make my way to the hospital ward where I know I’ll find Doc Everett. If he’s not home or in class, you can find him pouring over some poor schmuck’s DNA or blood work. Lately, the poor schmuck has been me and I know the Doc takes it personally that he can’t figure out what that fuckhead Oliver did to me.Doesn’t matter. What we all know is that Eliane will fix it, and since she is my mate, having her at my side should heal me. Unlike Everett and the others, I don’t feel the need to be claimed to be fixed. I just need her away from my brother and at my side.When Everett and Kaylani moved to their new home up on the hill, they also moved the hospital so that it’s between their house and the school. Now, what was the hospital is where Everett teaches classes to anyone interested in learning more about the inner workings of dragons, shifters, and even humans. I tend to skip his classes more than I attend. I could give a shit about shifter biology unless it’s going
Ancalagon: The Last Pure Dragon Chapter 13: Iniko
Now that I’ve shifted, I can finally, finally be with Eliane. I know I need to tell her about Jewels, but not yet. For now, she’s already overwhelmed with the idea that I have a human form. How overwhelmed would she be if she knew she had a dragon form?I watch her as we eat. She’s deep in thought, trying to assimilate all the information I’ve given her. She must feel the mate bond. She must. If we’re mates, she would feel it, even if it’s only in a human way, and I know she's drawn to me. She's told me she loves me multiple times.As I begin to speak to her, I realize that once again, we have the language barrier. There’s a way for us to get past that, a way that she could always understand me and I would know exactly what she was thinking all the time.If I submitted to her, I’d become her dragon. She already calls me her dragon, so I know she wants me. She’d be my rider and no one could ever tear us apart, not the Mean Ones and not Ancalagon.The thought of the dragon who calls hims

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
