Sacrificial Lamb-Slater

last update Last Updated: 2023-04-12 10:13:50

As the moon shines I can't seem to focus. So many emotions rush through as i look at my mates. My body feels so light that it seems at any moment i could take flight from the ground. Looking at my mates I can see the two children that stand beside them and yet the anger that the sight should cause isn't there.

What I feel instead is indescribable. It is a connection that I know I have longed for forever. It's the connection to my mates that I witnessed so many others have. A connection that brings these tears that I cannot stop down my face. Looking around the rest of the yard in front of the cabin I can see all the others.The dragons that I have manipulated and deceived.

The pain in my chest from what I have done is insurmountable. My eyes close as the images play in my head and I want to vomit. My hands claw at my chest wanting to rip my heart out for all the atrocities that I have committed. I don't deserve to be here. I don't deserve to take one more breath on this earth for all

    Our children come forward as Salvatore tells them that it is time. I know that this part won't be easy for any of us. Many here will not believe that he deserves such an honorable death. They would be right. But because he is our mate and we allowed hatred to rule him for so long, it is the least that we could do. We can grant him the gift of dying with love.“We will be here until the very end” I promise Slater as I look at him. His heart rate has picked up and I know that he is scared of what is to come. Blind in his hatred he wouldn't have feared death. However, feeling our bond and our love I would imagine it seems so different now.“It's painless dad. It will be just like going to sleep” Young Slay says as he kneels before him with his sister. I couldn't be more proud of my children at this moment. Knowing what they are capable of has always been hard.Marla looks up as someone comes closer and I watch as her dragon shines through. The child has always been too smart for her own

Not that I have minded too much.Since joining the guard under Maximus in the last few months I have always hated the uniform. For the last three days she has yet to let us leave the house.

  • Dragoned in Half   Prologue

    JeffersonWhen I was younger I found the world to be such a cruel place. As two young kids who had no choice but to be on the streets. Every foster home we ran away from. Together as brothers we needed no one else. Eventually that all ended too. It was a normal day. We had just stolen food from the local grocery store. We were eating it in a nearby alley. My twin Morby as I called him, sat with me while we feasted on chips and candy. The smiles on our faces sere filled with Joy as we filled our stomachs. We laughed as we told each other jokes that we had heard from other children who attended school.We set frozen in fear as a shadow appeared over us. For sure this time we were going to get caught as the thieves in the grocery store. At times we felt that sometimes the store owner knew the kinds of kids that we were. We thought that he felt bad because of how we looked. We have been wearing the same clothes for so long that we lost count. Bathing ourselves in open restrooms and in t

    Life is painThere is no pain in deathI am the destroyer, the delivererI choose who lives and who diesI am no GodI am a messenger of evilThere is no such thing as happily ever afterThere is death,There are no emotionsIts just me and my knivesThey need me as I need themThey are all I will ever haveMy mantra leaves my mouth smoothly just as it does every morning. Staring at my reflection there is no expression on my face. The scars tell their own story just as the demon that stares back out of my eyes. As I stare I don’t even blink. What would be the point?Once my morning routine is done I do the essentials. The water I use as I wash myself would melt off the skin of others. No matter how hot it gets I will never be clean. I will never be pure. There is nothing in this life that I haven’t taken for myself. I know that today will be a day like any other day. A day that I kill. A day that I come home to wash away the blood on my hands. Just like every other night,

    I gulp audibly at the look that he gives me before shoving the doctor out of the room. As he turns his back for that brief moment I square my shoulders. I hear the growl behind me as Jefferson shows his frustration. I should have know pissing this guy off wasn’t a good idea but I just cant hold my tongue. I’ve never been able to. When he turns back toward me his facial expression is blank. I blink rapidly as I try to ponder what it means. I feel as my eyebrows furrow on my face as he stalks toward me. I don’t even know what to do to prepare myself. If I knew that he were angry, I might have tried to run. If he were simply upset I could have tried talking my way out of it.His blank expression however makes it so the only thing I do is fidget while I wait for him to walk over. I focus my gaze on that piercing black one of his. As his muscles bunch and maneuver I have to stop myself from looking at them. His bold movements almost reminds me of a lion stalking its prey. Just as I take

    I blink my eyes open as I hear someone come through the door. I shake the sleep away immediately so that I can pay attention. I still don’t feel rested even though something tells me that I did actually sleep. The pain does that to me though. It makes me lose track of how much time I have been here. I know its been at least a few weeks. The first few days I had prayed for those in my clan to come and get me. once the tortured started though, I just wanted them to stay away. I don’t want any of them to suffer as I have been suffering. When my eyes finally focus I expect o see my brother as he stands before waiting. It’s the same each time he comes. He cuts, and cuts, and cuts until I pass out. Sometimes he doesn’t cut at all and he beats me.I can tolerate the beatings. Even though we are the same kind of dragon we can both handle the pain. Its those damn knives of his though that cause pain. They are made from something special that actually allows the metal to pierce my skin. I ha

    The night was a long one. I could barely get her to speak a word with me when I attempted to start a conversation. I thought that things were going so well at first. I thought this was a chance that…well I really don’t know. I just didn’t expect her rejection. We are not rejected. I roll my eyes at his comment. We have been having the same argument all night as we stared at her. Being trapped in a room with her scent was torture itself. I have had to smell it so much that now I can almost taste it. The thoughts from my dragon seem almost barbaric as he sends images in my mind. I find that the images make it hard to concentrate on all except her. I hoped to find my mate. I had plans to woo her with the food I prepare. Back home in our clan, I had even collected recipes that I wanted to make just for her. When she finally falls asleep, I can tell the her rest isn’t peaceful. She tosses and turns in her little corner. I want to tell her to move but there isn’t anywhere else in the ro

    The lecture that he gives me ends on a whisper as I stare at him. He cant even look at me as he goes into the rant. I don’t even think that he is thinking as he speaks. However, I do see his pain. He paints such a vivid picture that I can imagine it. Without meaning too he tells me everything that he has seen or gone through while he was here.My heart hurts as I look at the broken man in front of me. He seems so different from how everyone at the clan described him. Instead of strong and talented, he looks defeated. Instead of happy and jolly, he just looks sad. Instead of larger and boisterous, he looks smaller in my presence. I don’t even know what to say to him.“I’m sorry about what you have gone through Jefferson” I say lowly as I crouch in my corner. The room seems down right freezing now with out my clothes. I don’t even know why the bastard felt the need to take them in the first place.“I don’t want you to be sorry Julia. I want you to not go through it. Don’t make me watch

    As our children rush to me and embrace me, the world seems a bit less sad. I feel so tired from the day that i am drained but i can always smile for them. I know in a few moments they will have lots of questions that we will need to answer. At this time they are old enough to receive the answers. I know that bringing them here to meet theri father on his death may haunt them but it is the last thing that i can do for my mate. They hug there mother also and i watch Avery with them. Seeing her with them has always brought a smile to our face. Once they are done embracing, it is then that they notice the others who surround us and the man on the floor. They back toward Avery for comfort and i feel bad for springing this on them in the moment. However, their special talents will be needed in the moment.“Dad?” My son ask as he questions me.

    No one in the room can hide their shock as a man appears from Slater. The woman embraces the boy as he stands still and looks at everyone in the room. Tears grace Kawa’s face as she holds the young man to her. He steps away from her as he looks at her in confusion. “What am I doing here, mother?” he asks her as he looks at all of us. “I am here to free you my erzi. Now we can go to the land of the beyond so I can reunite you with your love. Let’s call it a wrong made right so to speak” she states. “My Io?” he asks as he smiles. The smile on his face disappears as he seems to remember something. His hand flies to the back of his head and he looks at his hand in confusion. Kawa’s expression turns sad as she watches emotions play across his face. “She will never forgive me,” he whispers. “That only you may find out. You will have to go to her first. However, there is one person that i would like you to see first” She says as she gestures toward the door. He looks up at the door confu

    The commotion from the cabin can be heard before we approach it. Feet pound against the forest floor as everyone rushes forward. A feminine scream lets off into the air as growls and fighting can be heard. A sigh of relief fills my chest as I hear the distinctive growl of my brother. To know that he is alive is what I need as I listen to the words of my dragon. He is still lost to us in the grief of the mate that he believes we have lost. We can not let him succumb to it, or he will be lost to us forever.The words make me move even faster as I burst through the door of the cabin. I spot him as he faces off with Salvatore as the dragon man stands in front of Slater. It looks as if my brother has already had a few rounds with him and as if someone has also had a few rounds with my brother. I rush forward just as he goes to attack Salvatore once more. I fly through the air as I tackle him but it barely diminishes his momentum. He hits Salvatore square in the chest.Salvatore goes flyin

    Looking at the faces in the room I can feel the words in my throat as they choke me. All these years and i know that the way that i handled things in the past was wrong. I made the decision based on our unborn children. I should have told Salvatore the truth of that night and yet I was afraid. I was afraid of how he would look at me and that I might have been left to raise our baby alone. I was afraid that he would see the dark side of me that Slater knew before I learned to control it. Who knows that Salvatore would have helped me control it later down the line. “Speak!!” Slater yells at me. Salvatores gaze swivels between us both as he tries to access my mind link. I block him from it not wanting him to see the actions. They are words that I need to say anyway. “That night was not how things were supposed to go, Sal. You have to believe me. I never wanted anyone to get hurt "I tell him as I plead with him. As I step toward him he steps away from me as he looks at me. I know from t

    The fire in the fireplace roars to life as I stroke it. The flames are mesmerizing to me as I feel my mates closing in. I have waited for this moment. After everything that i have done now they have no choice but to pay attention. The best has still yet to be shown and they don't even know. They will be leaving this earth on this day just as I will be. An epically romantic moment until the bitter end.I laugh as their flames heat. By now many of their friends would have died. The other dragons would have changed into today's clothes not knowing that it would be their death. For those that didn't change into the close they would have their final meal. Everything was so eloquently executed and they were blind sided. This was the only way that things could go after they blindsided me all those years ago.I got rid of a problem. I saved us only for them to leave me. For years I waited for them to return. For years I felt them as they loved and they grew. After five years had passed I rea

  • Dragoned in Half   No Escape-Salvatore

    Until this day I have no regrets about the decisions that I have made. Seeing the horrific things from the man that I loved hurt me beyond belief. When I heard of the things that he was doing to our kind I believed them. I had once upon a time seen his rage and I had Avery run from it. All those years ago and we have been running ever since. For decades I have felt the connection to Slater. In my anger and my fury at him I have all but denied that it existed. Today however, I have no choice. I have to follow it to where he is so that I can put a stop to him once and for all. I should have put a stop to it all those years ago, but because he holds my soul, I could not. Avery has always been the strongest of us. When she found out what he did, she so easily rejected him. I don't know if i could have done the same in her position but i know that it wasn't only herself that she was thinking of.When we returned after our trip in the forest and he shared our relationship, I was finally ha
