Emma POV

My mouth fell open and I looked like a fly catcher or something. I never expected those words to come out of her mouth and truth be told – what did she know about him? Was this not MY MYRA who encouraged me to get a job with the same Mr. Locke?? Who literally pushed me into it in a way asking “what do you have to lose???” What is she talking about? How does she even know Mr. Locke or anything about him and what is it that she knows or has found out that has pained her so much? My mind was in chaos. It felt like a rug was pulled from under me – for a moment I did not understand if I was coming or going or what was actually happening. For Myra to react the way she did, whatever she knew must be serious. I knew her all my life, and I have never seen this expression on her face. What was she talking about?

“Perhaps you need to ask her instead of sitting there looking confused”, I heard the same voice in my head. “Perhaps I should not talk to YOU right now!”, I barked. “You said M

    Kal POVThe Crown Room was buzzing with energy and a genuine sense of happiness. Numerous creatures murmured happy to see the Mother, and likewise some were none too pleased to see me. I guess my reputation preceded me indeed. I could not blame them, I have ruled with an iron fist and a lot of times in direct objection to my sister. My word was final, they knew that. I strived to be fair, but as a leader, a lot of times, I was forced to make difficult decisions and I always did what I needed to in order to protect our realm, especially from humans. However, knowing how human friendly Thalai’s kingdom was, we were bound to clash. And it showed. We moved away from the crowds so it was just us four, sitting around, sampling delicacies of different cuisines – my sister, after all, had access to all the trade routes in the world and could get the most incredible foods. Elena and she were quite the chefs and liked to experiment and try new things. They certainly knew what they were doing, j

    Kal POV The stunned silence of the room echoed within my very being. Talia was the one who dared to speak first. “Big brother… Why are you acting this way??? Are you mad at me because I heard about your babies??? Kal, I could not tell you they needed to be protected, and besides, I honestly did not even know where they were!! If I knew, I would have told you. They are your children, your blood, and mine”, she said, tears in her eyes now. “What else are you hiding in order to protect me sister???”, I spat, my rage now building up even more. I was going to leave the discussion about my children for later, but her bringing it up just reminded me of the lies I had been told. Mother knew I had children. Thalia knew I had children. Catherine knew she birthed our children, yet I, their only father, was kept in the dark by all the people I loved the most!!!! “Please, Brother. Let's not make this joyful occasion something it should not be. Beast is likely restless to be away from your childre

    Solomon POVThe journey to my brother’s realm was short, but the apprehension I felt was a never-ending feeling. I was worried. Things in the realm were changing. I was worried about First Dragon and his children. Soon, he would find out our biggest secret, one we hid from him to save him. I did not know how he would react and what that would entail. My thoughts went to my great granddaughter, Dragana, the Tribrid, who somehow found herself in the center of all this mess, through no fault of her own. So many think that having magic and power is the solution to life’s problems. How wrong they were, I mused to myself.Sitting in an expansive living room of the River Palace, I was waiting for my brother, one of the Three, Lord Alwyin himself. We had always had a good relationship, and even if we were not brothers, we shared the same values of hope, positivity and supporting the realms, both ours and humans. The balance of this world is what we need, and that very balance right now hung o

Her aura dropped and the temperature in the room stabilized. For a moment she just stood there, looking at me. Lady Sahar was sobbing quietly, Lord Alwyin’s strong arms around her. Xidna’s life was tragic, and truth be told, if I was to be honest, none of us helped her much. “What do you want from me”, she asked softly. “The truth. We need the truth”, I replied honestly. She was quiet. “Will you agree to my terms? If I help you, will you agree to it?” Simple question, yet the way she said it sounded ominous. “What are we agreeing to?”, Lord Asher asked her cautiously. She just looked at him, but did not reply.Walking over to the nearest chair, she sat down and a sudden humming enveloped her. She shifted into her snake form but was not attacking anyone. I knew she was meditating and divining, loo

  • First Dragon: Blood Ties    Who Is Mr. Locke?

    Emma POVI was in shock. Coming back from the bathroom where I had just emptied the contents of my stomach fully, the room was spinning. I did not know what to think of all this, but one thing was certain. I had to find a way to run away from here, I had to leave and never look back. Mr. Locke, judging by the files that Myra’s friend brought, was a monster. A monster in every way!!! Numerous pictures of young children, some infants, their descriptions, places where they were found, some of them injured, some close to death – all disappeared. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM! All disappeared mysteriously and all of their disappearances connected to one person – him.A long list of shell companies was at work. Some posed as international charities, some I found online as legitimate businesses in various countries. Again, they all had one thing in common. Him. Somehow, at the top of this horrible and ugly pyramid of children’s disappearances and obvious human trafficking was always him. There wa

    Cassius POVI had a new pep in my step. I finally had a way of winning over my mother’s intrigue and strategies, and I was a happy man for it. She had been nothing but cruel and calculating, for all the eternity I knew her. I often wondered how a creature such as her was my mother, and at times, fleeting thoughts even asked me if we were related. “Sad to inform you Cassius, but she is indeed our mother. I can smell hers and Bella’s blood, it is her blood that is mixed into your veins”, Marcus offered an ever so unhelpful opinion. For once, I wished he was wrong, but deep down I knew he was not.“Never mind, I can daydream Marcus. She never felt like our mother, you know”, I clarified. “You are right, she is not exactly a mothering type. She is a cold, calculated, ruthless creature and while I admire those qualities in general, as our mother she is an abuser and utter failure”, Marcus decided to elaborate on his disdain. “But we have something now – we have a way to WIN!”, I said excit

    Kal POV“Your aura has slipped mother!”, I said, venom lacing my words. I was ready to burst, I was ready to let the Beast out, even if it crumbled my sister’s kingdom. Her silver eyes looked at me knowingly and exchanged another short, fearful glance with Thalia. “ENOUGHT OF THIS!!! I need you to tell me the truth, Mother! Or is that something you are still incapable of doing after all this time???? So much for you telling me everything!”, I roared. I could not explain it – every fiber of my being was telling me that something was happening, that they were both hiding something. The Beast was screaming in my head, he wanted desperately to go to Makaha, and at this point I started believing that the answer to my questions and the reason for all this mystery was there. But none of it made sense, nothing made sense and I was never a man who liked ambiguity and things which did not add up.“Are you planning to talk or should I simply go to Makaha? One of you better start talking!”, I yel

    Kal POV I was stunned. I looked at her, my world crashing around me, finding myself suddenly unable to speak. Would my children kill me? Why? I thought of Emma and Leo, thought of her gentle souls. There was nothing, not a sliver of darkness in either one of them – nothing even remotely evil or diabolical that the Beast and I could sense and if anyone could sense it out, we could. Something was wrong. Something was not adding up. Thalia came over and hugged me, her tears falling on me, saying nothing, just holding me as if I were a small child. I gazed upon her beautiful eyes and saw love and immeasurable sadness. “There is more Kal”, she said, and I did not know what more there was, and how and if I would be able to handle it. The Beast was breaking on the inside, roaring, wanting answers, but also wanting to understand what had happened, why this was the way it was, why our children would kill us. “There were two dreams though, Kal”, I heard his voice. “How do we know which one is t

    Leo POVThe night with Cassius was beyond words.. Beyond comprehension. I had never known love like this was possible, never knew that I could open up my heart to that extent. I did not even know that I had room for such love, that I was capable of such love. The only love up to this point in my life, the only belonging I felt was to my only family – my sister Emma. However, now, I understood that there are different kinds of love, that different possibilities existed within me, that I was capable of more, worthy of more, able to do everything, powerful enough to balance my life, and finally, my whole self. For the first time in my life, I felt complete. I did not know how to explain it. Being orphaned, Emma and I always missed that familial connection, that Sunday lunch with family, those kisses and hugs from your mom or dad, the way your parents smell, the way they smile at you.. The ways you will mess up and they will pretend to scold you, only to teach you about life, yet love you

  • First Dragon: Blood Ties    Going Somewhere?

    Emma POVThese people were crazy! Totally and absolutely bat-shit crazy!!! There was no other explanation – no other possibility. Somehow, when I accepted the job opportunity with Mr. Locke, I somehow walked into a world of crazy people, a world of strange events and strange individuals, a world which almost seemed like an alternate reality. I should have known that all of this would have been too good to be true - regardless of their obvious support and well-wishes. It has become clear that whomever mysterious Ro is or was, that she was likely onto something, and her warnings obviously warranted. I should have listened when I had a chance, I really should not have been swayed. If only I had trusted Ro and Myra, I would have already been gone, safely somewhere with Leo, away from these crazy, cult-like people. Dear God, what did I get myself into???I felt a great sense of frustration, unease and felt completely stupid for trusting them, trusting them with my brother, trusting them wi

    Angela’s POV “Was she going into heat??? Or shifting???” Celia asked the same questions that were stuck in my mind as well. The three of us were sitting in a lounge sipping tea after Emma’s episode. She was strong, much stronger than we anticipated and in a state that we did not understand fully. Dr Sina was thinking. He had this habit of rubbing his chin whenever he was in deep thought, and by the looks of his behavior, he was definitely going to rub some skin off his face. Looking at us both with his soulful, wise eyes, he nodded at first, getting up and starting to pace around, obviously stressed out. “It is possible. It certainly felt as if she was about to do both, and had we not injected her, chances are she would have become a full-blown dragon, likely leveling the hospital down, killing everyone in it”, he replied gravely. The confirmation did not surprise me. However, things were not adding up. Usually, she-dragons would go into heat once she found her mate. Dragons went int

  • First Dragon: Blood Ties    What Kind Of A Dream?

    Emma POVThe anxiety and heat within me subsided gradually, but the sense that I felt complete, where I was discovering something new stayed with me – even in the darkness of my dream. However, I was not sure if I could call this a dream. Once Dr. Sina injected something into me, the darkness claimed me. However, I did not sleep. Fully alert as if I was awake, I started moving toward a sensual scent, a scent of pinecone and berries, a scent that was pulling me in a very specific direction. All my senses were enhanced, and I could feel everything around me.“There you are!!”, I heard the now familiar voice of the mystery man in my dreams. His strong arms were wrapped around my waist tightly, while he pulled me to him from behind. I still could not see his face, but his scent, and the sense of familiarity, sense of knowing this person, and sense of belonging were overpowering me. It felt right to be in his arms. I felt happy.His warm breath was on my neck, his soft, warm lips gently ki

  • First Dragon: Blood Ties    Darkness

    Emma POVMy heart was full for Leo. He had found him a man, a person to love him the way he deserved, the person to hold him, wipe his tears away when the skies go dark and cold, the person to make him laugh. He found his true love, or as the voice of my other-self within me said – his mate. Somehow, in my heart I knew this from the first time I ever saw Cassius. Everything within me screamed family, screamed recognition, screamed belonging, and the clarity hit me - as if I could see their life before them, their love and their day unfold. When Cassius called me to get advice as to how to set up a romantic date and dinner for Leo, I was only too happy to oblige. Plus, planning a romance took me away from dark thoughts about Mr. Locke, dark doubts and fears that were currently plaguing my mind. I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, as Leo suggested. I knew that life sometimes turns good people into bad ones. However, all that I have seen in the files could not be justifie

    Lord Alwyin POVSo.. It was true. The prophecy of Amelia’s betrayal had come to pass. My wife and I had held on all this time, and tried our very best, including extreme measures to somehow offset and change her fate. Alas, what Lord Krimus had reported was dire. Aramah was back. And not just Aramah, its Queen Witch, Verena. I felt like I was in hell, betrayed by those closest to me, namely my child. I knew that in her own mind she held justification of what had happened, justification I could not negate, given that she thought her mate Darius was dead at my hands. When I saw her last, I could sense her anger and hatred towards me. At this point, she had hated me so long, that it was likely hard to pinpoint the origin of when that had begun.Xidna was a whole other story, her demands and her threats something completely else. I knew that I failed her, and whatever she had planned for us, was entirely my own fault. In truth, I should have known better. I should have known that she wou

    Leo POVI had no words for what just happened. I had no explanations, no prior understanding, just the raw unbridled emotion cursing through my body, pure pleasure and euphoria. And another feeling which dominated every ounce of my being. Cassius was MINE!!! MINE ALONE!! I heard the grumble in my chest, the determination of those words. I had not spoken them as of yet, but my whole being was screaming that this was my guy, my person, and my love. MINE. And MINE ALONE! There was something that happened to me the moment he kissed me, the moment he fell on his knees. The moment of recognition of some kind, somehow, someway, I knew, without a shred of a doubt, that he was my soulmate, my everything, and the only person other than Emma that I would give my life for. The veracity of those feelings hit me unexpectedly, yet not irrationally. Right before he showed up in my life, things were different. And now, with him here, and what just happened, I found myself in a vortex of emotion, stood

    Cassius POVI wanted tonight to be perfect. I called Emma in advance to learn more about Leo’s favorite foods, what he liked to drink, even what kind of flowers he liked. I realized that they came from humble backgrounds, and I desperately did not want to be a show-off, but at the same time I wanted to give him the world – everything I had, my heart included, already belonged to him anyway. I also had a surprise help from an unexpected source. His friend Theo, who worked at the garage with him, was there when I went to see Albert and asked discretely about him. Somehow, he overheard our conversation and decided to chime in and share that Leo’s dream car was a Mercedes G63, and I decided to buy him one as a present. The car I drove tonight was Leo’s and I hope he liked it. I was going to give it to him at the end of our date as a gift – I did not want to have him apprehensive during dinner. “We do not need to throw wealth in Leo’s face, Cassius. He is not like that”, Marcus advised. I

    Leo POVCassius’ phone call was exciting. He said he had planned a special date for us, and I felt as if I was walking on clouds. My stomach tightened just at the sound of his voice, and I grew weak in my knees thinking of his plump, gentle lips, his chiseled jaw, and body the Gods themselves would be jealous of. My favorite thing about him was his smile. When he smiled at me, I felt like the only person in the world. That smile reached into the depths of my soul and touched my heart. Every time I heard his voice, my stomach and chest would both flutter as if dozens of butterflies danced around it. Timing worked out great - with Mr. Locke rescheduled the dinner. I had time to have my date with Cassius.Emma’s words and files I read weighed heavily on me. However, somehow, I was willing to give Mr. Locke the benefit of the doubt. Somehow, the timing of all this seemed too perfect, and too coincidental, and I was not a man that believed in coincidence. Moreover, the voice, my inner voic
