I was worried, very, very worried. Nobody had been able to reach Hannah for two days and Rev looked like a walking corpse. We had tracked down her friend Michelle, who hadn’t heard from her in a month and she confirmed that Hannah had no plans to come and visit her. Hannah had lied to us and Rev swore that nothing had happened between them that would make Hannah leave. I believed him.

“Where would she go?” I asked Rev as he sat on the couch looking like death.

“I don’t know Lucas,” he said to me honestly.

“She looked fine when I talked to her and she told me to my face she was going to visit Michelle,” I said to him.

“Same here, she was herself,” he said to me.

“We found her car!” Preston yelled as he barged into the office and Rev and I both jumped up.

“Where?” Rev asked.

“In lower Aurora,” he said.

“The fuck,” Rev said.

“Why would she go there?” I asked feeling confused.

“Lucas! Lucas!” I heard Timothy yelling.

“Timothy?” I asked as he also barged into my office looking like he’d se

    Baz walked outside and separated from me as we neared the open area at the back of the house. He took a deep breath and blew it into my face. My eyes closed instantly and I was transported to the dragon realm.“Typhon,” I said as I saw the black tail flicking across the floor and bowed my head.“Sire Lucas host of Bazzoit,” he said in his deep voice.“My liege,” Bazzoit said and bowed his head.“Bazzoit, descendant of mine,” Typhon said.“We are but humble servants in your presence seeking permission to speak with you,” Baz said.“Permission granted,” Typhon breathed and he peered at me as his head moved out of the shadows.“We seek to trace a familial bond. Sire Lucas’s sister has been taken by degenerates and we need to find her,” Baz said.“Yes,” his voice hissed for a moment.“We request to use the magic of this realm to find her,” Baz requested.“Granted my child,” Typhon said.“Thank you,” I said with my head still bowed.“You are an intriguing one Sire Lucas, you fear your Elde

    The next few days passed in a blur as Timothy practically moved into the house and helped with all the women next door. A few of them were severely traumatized and Stella worked closely with them as did Nadia. She shared her own ordeal with them and through her they started trusting us enough to share information and write statements.A few of the women had no lairs or families and they were integrated into our lair and Hannah found jobs for them in Aurora. The ones that were more traumatized were sent for counseling and Timothy worked closely with them. For some reason, the women really trusted him and we spent a lot of time piecing together the McIntyre network.Baz had made Carson’s dragon submit much to his irritation and we still held him in the basement. I would deal with him later. We had over twenty statements and video footage of the women testifying about the things that were done to them.They all knew Carson’s face and name and they mentioned several other names of men now

    “Dragonkin of my lair, thank you for gathering with me tonight at such short notice,” I said as I stood in the front of the ballroom watching my people.My family stood to one side and Hannah was seething. Jennifer had been crying the entire day and they were all angry. Jasper wanted to be there but I asked him to stay away because I was afraid that he’d kill the Elders out of pure rage. I still needed them to grant me execution rights for Joseph and Carson McIntyre.“The Elders have requested your presence so that my punishment can be executed tonight and they want you all to bear witness to my humiliation. What they don’t realize is that this isn’t humiliating for me, I take these lashings proudly because I stand with my decision to turn Jennifer Halstead and make her a proper member of our lair,” I said and wild applause erupted.“Charming,” Elder James said as they stepped forward and my lair looked at them with disgust. Elder Gareth held the syringe of dragon venom that would del

    “Coming!” she yelled at the knock on the door of her apartment.She opened the door and stood frozen as she looked at Hannah and Rev. Hannah smiled slightly and Rev just grunted as they all stared at each other.“Hello Rylee,” Hannah said.“How did you find me?” Rylee asked her.“I have friends,” Hannah shrugged.“Does Lucas know where I am?” Rylee asked.“No,” Hannah said, “can we come in?”“Sure,” Rylee said as she looked around.She opened the door wider and let Hannah and Rev enter. They walked through to the living room and Rylee showed them each a seat.“Something to drink?” Rylee asked.“Coffee for both of us,” Hannah said as they sat down.Rylee walked to the kitchen and absent-mindedly her hand went to her stomach. She was now almost four months pregnant and living in Joliet. She was slightly worried that Hannah had found her and she was itching with curiosity as to why they were here.“I assume this isn’t a friendly visit to see how I am,” Rylee said as Rev took the tray fro

    I was vaguely aware of beeping machines deep in my subconscious. My limbs felt too heavy and I couldn’t move them. I knew I was dreaming or hallucinating as I smelled Rylee’s scent close to me and I could swear someone was holding my hand.I felt tired and I hurt and for some reason I couldn’t open my eyes or speak. This process repeated itself about four times and I had no idea how much time had passed. This time when I came to my senses things felt different.I still struggled to open my eyes and I was aware that I was on my stomach and I could smell her again. It was like she was right there with me, stroking my hair with one hand while the other one was entwined in my own hand.I felt her hand move and I gripped it tightly, “please don’t leave me,” I whispered and I could feel her breath on my face.“I’m not going anywhere,” she said in her soft voice.“Is he waking up?” I heard Hannah ask.“Yes,” Rylee said.“I’ll call Stella,” Hannah said and I heard her footsteps as she left th

    After dinner I followed Rylee up the stairs and she stopped on the third floor and turned to me. I didn’t really know what to expect because I had treated her like shit yet here she was and I didn’t know what to say other than sorry which wasn’t really good enough.“Well this is me,” she said and turned to walk down the hall.“You’re sleeping in the guest room?” I asked her.“Well I am a guest here,” she said and my heart sank.“Okay,” I said and turned towards the stairs again.“We should make some time to talk,” she said.“We should,” I said to her.I lay in bed and thought about everything I wanted to say to her, everything I should say to her but knowing she wasn’t staying kind of ruined all that, not that I could blame her. I was surprised she was even here now.I woke up as Rylee put a cup of coffee down on the bedside table. She was already dressed and she looked good, she was glowing and she looked happy.“Morning,” she said with a smile.“Hey,” I said as I sat upright and too

    “How do you know Beckett Lawley?” I asked Rylee as I stood in the doorway of her bedroom.“Why?” she asked me and I could see that she had stiffened when I mentioned his name.“You’re living in his apartment,” I said.“How do you know that?” she asked me.“The Elders told me, so it’s true?” I asked her.“I met Beckett about three years ago at a function that Colin had at his house,” she said.“I’m sure he just jumped at the opportunity to take you in,” I said.“We became friends,” she said.“So how do you see this working?” I asked her.“See what working?” she asked me.“Us,” I said to her.“There is no us Lucas. I meant what I wrote in that letter,” she said.“So why are you here?” I asked her.“Closure maybe and I felt guilty for you taking my punishment and I wanted to help you heal which my presence did,” she said.“So you intend to leave again?” I asked her.“Yes,” she said.“Don’t,” I said to her.“I know you don’t want them and I’m more than capable of looking after them myself

    “Welcome dragonkin of my lair,” I said as everyone settled down.“I met with our new Elders this morning and I know you’ve all heard a lot of rumours and most of them are probably true. Yes, I disbanded the previous Elders by killing off their dragons. Yes, we have Carson McIntyre in our custody. I have also been granted an execution warrant for Joseph McIntyre as proof have finally been found that he was responsible for killing my parents,” I said and had to stop talking because of the cheers and clapping.“The McIntyre lair has officially been disbanded as of today and the whole of Aurora is now under our protection and you are all free to move through lower Aurora. Tonight we’ll decide Carson’s fate and I’ve already taken the stance that no McIntyre member will join our lair,” I said.“Kill him!” I heard the shouts coming from my lair members.Rev stepped out from the shadows pulling Carson behind him. He joined me in the front and kicked the back of Carson’s leg and forced him to

  • I am the dragon   Epilogue

    Timothy had followed Baz’s scent to the house and ultimately saved our lives. I was furious when we arrived back at the house because everyone was fine except Tom who had been killed in the basement when Joseph’s men broke Carson out. Nobody had even realized that they were in the house or that Rylee was missing.They realized that shit had hit the fan when Jasper, Brandon and Rev arrived back at the house and Timothy took off in a hurry leaving behind just the rustling of leaves. We couldn’t find any evidence of Joseph having any other children and I had to assume that he had lied about Carson not being his only heir.The new Elders took notice of the deaths and listened in silence as I made my statement and they made notes and announced that the McIntyre line was now dead. I was vindicated and in the end we took in about ten of the McIntyre members who had nowhere else to go.Rev and Hannah got married two days after her eighteenth birthday in a small ceremony at the house which we

    We drove the thirty miles to Broadview in tense silence. We all had our own reasons for wanting to do this. Brandon started out doing it because we’re friends and he’s always game for a good fight but now it was because of Kimberley. Rev hated anyone that I hated and he’s always had my back, not matter what or who.Jasper has been my older brother of sorts, I wouldn’t say he was a father figure to me but we were so involved with each other’s lives that no matter what happened we’d always be there for each other. He had become invested in finding proof against Joseph even though he wasn’t close with my father.Me on the other hand, I had every reason in the book to do this. Those bastards took my parents, ripped my family apart and then tried to ruin me as a Sire, make my life a living hell and thought they’d get away with it all.The house was located on the outskirts of Broadview and we stopped the car a mile away from it. There were a few guards walking the perimeter of the mansion.

    Timothy sat at my desk and I sat across from him on the sofa as he opened his laptop and looked at me. I took the letter from my jacket pocket and handed it to him. He read it and I saw his eyes widen as he folded the letter and handed it back to me.“This is…” he said.“I know,” I said to him as he shook his head.“What are their names?” he asked me his expression still stoic.“Gareth Wineston, James Hitchenson and Peter Phillips,” I said to him.“Bastards,” he said as he started typing on the laptop, “this might take a while, I’ll come get you as soon as I have something.”“Thanks, there’s something I need to do anyway,” I said to him.“Take your time. I have a program running down their names for any property owned and then I’ll start searching for their faces wherever they’re located just to make sure they are in fact there,” he said and I stood up.I nodded and left Timothy to do his thing and headed back to the bedroom as I sent a text to Stella. Rylee was in the shower and I co

    I spent two days searching the office before I found the hidden panel in the wall behind the filing cabinet. There was one envelope inside, wrapped in plastic and I took it out. I unwrapped the plastic carefully and opened the letter.“Lucas, when the time is right I pray you find this. I know you’re smart enough to figure the truth out on your own and I know how this will end. You’re too much like me and I know the need for vengeance will drive you and you won’t stop until you’ve accomplished what you want.Joseph McIntyre is poison and if you allow him in he will destroy everything you try to build up. The truth of everything is that Joseph was jealous. He loved your mother to the point where he rejected his bonded half for her but by that time we had already met and I marked your mother two days after I met her.You came along nine months later and then Christina and then Hannah and we never looked back. Joseph was furious of course. He tried to kidnap you right after your birth bu
