“Relax, Liz. Everything will be ok.” Henry spoke softly, knowing that even his voice was starting to have a calming effect on h

And that was the truth. She didn’t want to leave. No matter how everything began, no matter how they met, no matter that he kidnapped her and scared her to death, it all came down to this. She didn’t want to leave. Somehow, somewhere along the way, she stopped being scared of him and started enjoying his mere presence, his voice, his stories. Honestly, being near him felt like she never felt before in her life. It felt like home.

Elizabeth felt ashamed after her little episode, as she called it in her head. She rarely cried, and she had never cried in front of another person. She sniffed a little, and after untangling herself from Henry’s embrace, she went to the bathroom to blow out her nose. She hated that her reflection showed her nose and eyes a bit red, but she felt good, light, and easy... like a rock was lifted off he

Beautiful morning sun shining through the window was what woke Elizabeth up. She has never in her entire life felt so good, refreshed, and well-rested as this morning. A smile crept upon her face when she realized the position they were in. They were spooning, and she was a little spoon. She had never been a little spoon before, and it felt good. She felt safe and warm, protected. His arms were all

Henry made sure that Elizabeth closed the door of the basement before he went outside. While they were having breakfast, he heard wolves howling in close distance, and he had a feeling that those were not regular wolves. Although wolf packs were known to pass through this region from time to time, he didn’t want to take any risk with Elizabeth in the house. When after a couple of minutes, five wolve

One by one, feral wolves shifted into their human forms, and now they stood naked in front of Henry and Elizabeth. It wasn’t a sight that he ever wanted Elizabeth to see, dirty and naked shifters. “I thought I made myself clear mutts. You should stay away from me if you want to live.” His voice was stern and threatening. “I told you I smelled a woman up there, you guys!” one of the werewolves said. “This is our chance to kill dragon prince! Then we’ll be respected as we deserve to be.” “So th

Henry laid on the ground in front of Elizabeth to make his gigantic body accessible for her to climb onto. In his dragon form, his every feeling and emotion was amplified so many times... her acceptance of him like this brought him to his heaven. Elizabeth on, the other hand, was thinking about how she didn’t know what she did to deserve this. She was living a real-life fairytale, and this beast in

Henry offered his hand to Elizabeth, and she accepted it, so he pulled her in his lap. She still had trouble excepting all the feelings he made her feel each time they touched while he relished them. He couldn’t believe he got so lucky. What did he ever deserve to get mated to a girl like her? His eyes showed nothing but pure adoration while he stared deep into her eyes.

"Surprise!" a cheerful shout startled Adaline when she opened the door of her home. Elizabeth stood in front of her holding both kids in her arms. Victoria and William spread their arms in unison, reaching for their grandmother, and she wasted no more time but took them both at the same time from Elizabeth and brought them inside the mansion. Elizabeth followed behind, pulling one suitcase with her. "Why didn't you tell me you were coming?" Adaline asked in between, blowing raspberries on the kids' necks that made them giggle each and every time. "Then it wouldn't be a surprise, would it," Elizabeth answered with a smile and took a suitcase upstairs to a room that was reserved for her and Henry at all times. "Where's Henry?" Adaline questioned once Elizabeth came back downstairs. "He has some business in town, so we decided while he's with Ethan to come to spend some time wi

"Hey, love. What are you reading there?" Henry came in carrying some firewood in his arms.It was the middle of January, and it was cold outside, so Henry made sure to bring in enough wood to feed the fire in the fireplace in front of which Elizabeth spent most of her time. Elizabeth rarely went out these days because the snow was too high. It reached her waist, so she wouldn't stroll too far from the house.Elizabeth raised her gaze to look at Henry. She still had moments when she would wonder what she did to deserve someone like Henry."Just some old history book I borrowed from Richard's library. I'm trying to learn as much as I can about dragons before, you know… and I still can't believe how big that place is! Richard has an impressive collection of books, and most of them are about supernatural topics. One would need a lifetime to go through all of them."Henry put the firewood in the basket next to the fireplace and moved to sit behind Elizabeth. She leaned on him

Elizabeth and Henry spent Christmas and New Year’s Eve with the family, all gathered in the manor. They celebrated traditional human holidays because of Anna, Elizabeth, and Sarah since the rest of them were of other species and religion altogether, but either way, sharing gifts and spending time together was a reason enough for all of them to participate. The rest of the time, Henry and Elizabeth s

Days went by turning into weeks, and two months passed like a blink of an eye since the whole ordeal that caused the destruction of the cottage in the mountains. It was early December when the construction crew left the site, and only the interior designer was left there to do some final touch-ups. During these two months, Henry made only two short trips to the site to see for himself how things wer

“She’s beautiful,” Elizabeth spoke in the softest possible voice while she held baby Amanda in her arms, looking at her small, chubby face. The baby was looking right back at her with a curious expression on her little face like she was assessing her. Elizabeth never had experience with babies, but she was sure that they were not supposed to act so maturely when they’re only a couple of days old. “Y

“What are we going to do? Where are we going to live? When are we going to tell everyone? How are we going to tell everyone?” Elizabeth had a thousand questions, and Henry laughed. “Love, we’ll figure it out. We have time,” he said softly, hugging her and planting a chaste kiss on her forehead. Since Henry had no intention of letting Elizabeth cook for him now, they ordered lunch to be delivered, and they stayed in bed cuddling while it arrived. “I was thinking of hiring a construction crew to build a new house on the same spot. I have always loved that place and the peace up there...” “That would be amazing! But I have a request or two...” Elizabeth quickly agreed with a dreamy look on her face, already imagining them living there. “Anything you want, love.” “A fireplace! I always wanted one, and I bet the next winter would be a snowy one up there. Oh, and a guest room... in case we have visitors sometimes. More windows would be nice, and maybe a back garden. And when I think of

“That’s not possible,” Henry said in a low voice, and Elizabeth felt his hands that she was still holding in hers suddenly went cold. They were silent for a while, each in their own thoughts. Elizabeth accepted the possibility of what she just said actually being the truth, and Henry… well, he wasn’t thinking about much right now. He was trying to wrap his head around what he just heard, but he was failing. “I thought so too, but that guy, the third one, he was so sure of it that he planned what to do with the money once the baby is born and he sold it,” bitterness colored her tone. “And Robert wanted to get rid of it first thing after they were supposed to kill you…” she was now speaking very fast. “And they said that I, and I quote here, reek of pregnancy hormones… I didn’t want to believe it at first because I don’t feel any different, but now that I think about it… I did miss two of my last periods, and that had never happened before,” her voice trailed off at the end.
