2020-11-20 02:50:34“I want all of them dead! Kill them all!” The man snarled viciously. The people near him flinched at the rage in his voice.
“Yes, your highness,” a young man said with a bow before scurrying away, his voice quivering with fear.
All of the people in the room cowered at the man’s anger. He was their king, the werewolf king, and he held extreme power over them all.
He would become honored and his command would be remembered for centuries, as it led to the end of fire dragons, or so everyone thought.
***
Fifteen Years Later
The king was staring out the window in his office, thinking about his new wife, who was currently pregnant with their second child. She was sick though, and the doctors feared she wouldn’t survive long enough to give birth.
“Father? Why do the peasants tell stories of fire dragons? I thought they were just a myth.”
The king turned his head and saw his son lounging in a chair, staring at the ceiling, his eyebrows scrunched in confusion. "They were real, they have been turned into myth,” he said with a sigh.
“What happened to all of them?” His son asked curiously, turning toward his father.
“They were destroyed. I ordered for all of them to be hunted down and killed. They had been killing werewolves for centuries, but then a fire dragon killed your mother and your sister, and I needed to put an end to the slaughter. She was only twelve years old; it was just after you turned two,” the king told his son, his voice cracking with grief.
The son grew furious as the story of his mother and sister’s deaths continued to fill his thoughts. He began to hate dragons, though he had never even seen one. “Are there any dragons left?” He asked.
“It is impossible to be sure, but I want you to promise me something,” the King paused.
“Of course, anything at all father,” he replied eagerly.
“If you ever find a fire dragon, I want you to torture and destroy it so that it feels the pain our family has suffered.”

My lungs burn as they try to take in oxygen while I sprint as fast as I can across the rocky slope of the mountain. My body aches with fatigue and I feel faint, but I keep pushing myself as the voices behind me grow louder. I stumble a bit over the rocks but immediately get up and continue clambering over the boulders. My boot is suddenly tangled in a twisted shrub and I yelp as I fall forward. I catch myself before my head is smashed open but the skin on my arms is scraped and bloodied. I rip the gnarled branch off my foot and stand up.My eyes lock onto a large group of men with bows and swords and I start running once again. I hear them shout and scream profanities, but I ignore them and keep running as fast as my legs will carry me.The rocks give way to grass and I growl in frustration and pause when I see the edge of the forest. The men are still following me, so I take a deep breath before forcing my body int

“We captured the trespasser, it turns out she is female,” my gamma informs me.“Is she human?” I ask. Not many people would be brave enough to enter my territory unless they didn’t realize who it belonged to.“Not likely, she was running from a large group of men that stopped chasing her once she entered the forest. We tried to track them, but we lost their trail after they entered the Zhyden Mountains,” he tells me.“Is that all you know?”“No sir, beta Cadyn helped to capture her and is in the prison currently, he will have much more information,” my gamma says.“Thank you gamma Mykael, you may return to your post,” I dismiss him with a wave of my hand. He bows before leaving my office.Who would be crazy enough to trespass on my terri

Everything is dark, I can’t see or hear anything. I feel a small pinch near my neck and suddenly all I see is red.I feel as though I am having a panic attack, my body jerks around uncontrollably and my eyes flit across the room, seeing everything all too quickly to form a clear image.Two golden spots come into view and everything instantly freezes. I stare into the golden eyes and can’t look away. I see something flash in his eyes, it looks like panic, but quickly turns into cold fury.What is going on?I do not know Lyza, perhaps his wolf is saying something that angers him,my dragon suggests.Werewolves can talk to their wolves?I ask.Of course, all creatures can speak with their inner form,he answers, and I suddenly feel very stupid.

Mate? What the hell is that supposed to mean Madox?I growl at my wolf.What do you think it means Daerius? That girl is your mate and you are about to torture her!He snarls at me.Why would I be mates with a creature other than a wolf, especially one like a witch or oh god, what if she is a dragon?I say, disgust seeping into my words.Well then you are just going to have to get over it. The longer you avoid her, the stronger the bond is going to grow until you won’t be able to even look at her without wanting to tear her clothes off.I can practically hear him smirking.I cut off the link, knowing that my wolf is probably right, hell, he’s always right.Find out what kind of creature she is,I tell my Beta who stands in front of the girl.

I gasp at the force behind his fist, it has me convulsing. The guards have my body pinned against the wall, so I am forced to bear the pain.I know he did some damage; I can taste blood in my mouth and his fist hit the bloody gash across my stomach.Pain sears across my body and I want to scream but am suddenly distracted as Mitalonys tries to take over my body. In my pain, I can’t hold him back.I slowly feel myself lose control of my body until I can just see, hear and feel the pain that still courses through my body.I let out a snarl and my chains are ripped free from the wall. I smash my fist into one guard’s face and his body falls onto the floor, completely unconscious.I take the other guard’s head between my hands and snap his neck in seconds. The last guard runs towards me, but I deliver a roundhouse kick straight

My wolf is so annoying, I am trying to think but he won’t shut up. This girl made a good point, if she stays here then I can teach her how to get along with wolves.And you can make sure she doesn’t turn into the monster that killed your mother and sister,Madox pipes in. I run my hand through my hair in frustration.“Very well,” I say, and she looks at me in shock.“What?”“You may stay in the pack,” I mutter quickly before I can change my mind. Her eyes widen and her mouth opens and closes several times.“Thank you so much! I can promise you that you will not regret your decision!” She gushes and I roll my eyes but can’t help the smile that crosses my lips from making my mate happy.“Now how the hell do I get down from here?”

Why is he finding it amusing to call you Lyza when you specifically asked him to call you Lyzaria?My dragon asks me.Because he thinks it’s funny to irritate me,I reply.How is that funny?It’s not really, he’s just an ass,I snort and Mitalonys chuckles a little.“Get cleaned up, I have to watch the warrior’s training in a half hour. The bathroom is through there and there are clothes in the closet that belong to my sister, but they should be about your size,” Daerius tells me.“Yeah okay,” I mutter, only half listening. When I hear the doors close, I groan and collapse onto the bed.Weariness and pain washes over me and I feel tears prick my eyes. My stomach still hurts where there is a knife gash and a massive bruis

To say that I am shocked would be an understatement.“Where did you learn to fight like that?” I ask, grabbing her arm and pulling her away from my warriors. She sighs a little.“My father taught me mostly. He had made a mistake that eventually led to his death. But in the time, he was alive, he trained me how to survive by fighting, and killing,” she says, clenching her jaw.“Well, I still don’t let females fight because if they were capture for any reason, they can’t withstand torture as well as males,” I explain, and she shakes her head with a breathy laugh.“Really? You tortured me, and I’m sure I held up better than most of your warriors would have,” she scoffs, and I frown.“Fine, you win. Now you are supposed to be maintaining a low profile so I suggest you shut up

I let out a growl as the wolf continues to yell at me. I leap off of the back of the warrior’s dragon. My dress flies around me as I fall through the air.I land in a silent crouch, just inside the edge of the burning forest. With a wave of my hand the flames subside long enough for me to walk through the trees and into the clearing of wolves.My Fire Snake hisses and spits beside me, swaying side to side. The wolves look at me with eyes full of fear, all except for one; the Werewolf King.“Lyza!” he yells again, and I growl angrily.“How do you know my name?” I snarl. He takes a step forward and my finger twitches. The snake hisses loudly and slithers closer. He leaps backwards in shock.“You’re my mate Lyza! You saved my life; you saved my sister’s life!” he yells. I growl.

I wake up to a loud knocking at my bedroom door. I sit up with a groan.“Come in,” I say. I look up and see one of my guards.“Alpha, the messenger from the Mountains is back,” he informs me. The urgency in his voice makes me hurriedly follow him through the house.He leads me to my office where he stands guard outside the door. I walk in to see my Beta beside a ragged-looking wolf.His hair is sticking up in multiple directions, there are dark circles under his eyes, and he is covered in dirt. His shoulders are slumped, and he looks exhausted.“I apologize Alpha for my condition, I could not stop and what I have to tell you is too important to wait until morning,” he says, his voice hoarse.“Get him some water,” my Beta tells the guard outside.

I can’t feel anything. My entire body is numb. My memories are distorted too, all I remember is my father telling me that we have to leave soon, and then the fire.Something presses around my neck and I realize I am being dragged to the ground by a chain. A red dragon is leading me away from the black clouds of ash.I try to fly towards my uncle, but nothing moves. It’s like my body is paralyzed.After several minutes we reach the ground. I collapse onto the black dirt, my eyes darting around in panic. A dozen unfamiliar faces surround me. One of them sticks a needle into the underside of my neck and I feel a cold liquid run through my veins. My eyelids start to fall, and I pass out moments later.***The ashes are so deep, they completely cover my feet. Black and white flecks drift in the wind down from the volcanoes.

My head snaps up at the faint rumbling noise. I search the horizon in the direction it came from and my face falls.A bright red flame shoots through the sky, on the other side of the Zhyden mountains. Then suddenly a searing white pain shoots through my skull and I collapse onto the forest floor.My Beta rushes over, shaking my shoulder but I can’t hear a word he is saying. I can only focus on a single coherent thought as everything goes black.Lyza.***I open my eyes to someone calling my name. Angel’s face hovers over me, full of concern. The agony is gone now, replaced by a strange numbness.“Daerius are you alright?” My sister asks softly.I sit up, looking around my room in confusion. “What happened? All I remember is a red flare . . .” I trail off, confused and

I hug my knees tighter to my chest, hissing in pain. It hurts to breathe, and it hurts to move.My head aches, and bright light is irritating. I pass out every few hours, only to wake up a few minutes later.I haven’t seen anyone since a dragon brought me a clean pair of clothes, just after they dragged me in here.My uncle is even more powerful than I remember, even Mitalonys is still in pain. And when he is injured to the point of feeling pain, neither of us can heal.I close my eyes, focusing on the moment I had with Daerius when he marked me. It seems like it was years ago.I miss him so much,I tell my dragon.Since he marked you, you are going to miss him a lot more. In a few weeks it’s going to be painful to even think of him,Mitalonys says.I internally groan, my f

My arms curl tighter around her, my hand running through her hair. She suddenly seems so small, so fragile.I listen as her heartbeat and breathing slows. She is asleep in minutes.“Wow, the dragon doesn’t look so vicious now,” Angel says, walking out of the castle.“What do you want Angel?” I ask in annoyance. She raises her hands in surrender.“Oh, so now I need a reason to talk to my brother?” She scoffs.“You do when I’m with my mate,” I growl lowly.She purses her lips. “Fine. I wanted to know when we are leaving,” she says. I sigh, my head falling against the stone wall.“I don’t know, I can’t leave Lyza. And this is her home, I can’t make her leave that. I don’t know what to do,”

“Does this mean we are accepting the mating bond?” Daerius asks. I sigh, biting my lip in thought.“I guess but there is one problem. You are going to go back to your pack, and I will be here. How is that going to work?” I ask.“Why are you staying here?” He sounds surprised and I raise an eyebrow at him.“Because this is my home. I didn’t know before that anyone survived the massive attack years ago. But now I havefamily, I’m not going to throw that all away afteryearsof being completely alone.”“Well that puts us in a difficult position,” he growls, roughly running a hand through his hair.“Maybe not, I mean now I can shift. If you can get the order for the extermination of dragons to be removed, then I can come to visit you eve

I can’t stop staring at Kailo’s mangled, bloody body. His eyes are still open, staring straight ahead.He looks like a boy again, like the boy I loved and vowed to spend eternity with. He used to be kind, strong, gentle, and would look at me as if I were the most important person in the world.And today I found out he was going to kill me for my throne. Years of affection and devotion, all for nothing.“Lyza? Are you there?” I hear Daerius’ voice say. I turn my head, still under Talon’s control. I see him standing at the edge of the dirt bowl I’m in. My head is level with his.“Listen I’m going to help you shift back, but first you need to come over here,” he says. My body moves forward but instead of presenting my neck to Daerius like I wanted, Talon has me knocking Daerius into the ring.

A hoarse yell fills my ears, and it takes me a moment before I realize it’s my own. All I could see were shadows and now all I can see is Lyza falling through the sky.Her wing has a huge tear in it, and she is covered in a glistening black liquid, blood. I feel my heart drop as I notice she is not moving, and her eyes are closed as she falls.I am standing, but my legs give out underneath me as her body hits the earth. The ground shakes and a plume of dust floats over us.Kailo soars down from the clouds, his wings beating away the cloud of dirt. I see he is missing an eye and half of his face is badly burned.“Oh shit, I don’t think she’s getting up,” someone whispers behind me.Then flames suddenly burst from within the dirt cloud. I jump back, narrowly avoiding getting my eyebrows burned off.
