Time seems to blend into a continuous stream without a window to tell me whether its day or night I have absolutely no idea what time or even day it is or how long I’ve been down here, each day the same guy brings me a tray of food but I don’t see anyone else.
I try and connect with Jewels but I’m met with silence every time, I'm sure they're poisoning my food or water with something but I have no option but to eat what they give or starve to death and that is not something I’m willing to do, I need to get back to my twins.I picture their faces every dip and crease of their features their lips, Molton eyes and high cheekbones, I miss them so much, I rub my chest trying to rub away the ache that’s settled there since I’ve been kidnapped and separated from them but nothing eases it.I know they must be feeling the same ache I am and it tears me apart to think of the pain that they must be feeling but I’m trying to figure a way out of here but therehey everyone hope your all well!! i will be getting back to writing normally again as the kids go back to school very soon I hope your all ready its gonna be good! x.DanahLouise.x
Dragus’s POV I woke with a startle the space beside me empty and cold as I ran my hand over the sheets, Darian was still snoring softly on the other side of the bed, I couldn’t see Aria anywhere, the soft glow of the bathroom light seeping underneath the door had me thinking she was in there. I rose from the bed and padded my way over to the bathroom, I couldn’t hear anything coming from inside so I pushed the door open and glanced around, the room was empty, no sign of her. My heart started to quicken as I backed into the bedroom, turning and surveying the room around me, maybe she’d gone to get a drink or something? The French doors leading out to our balcony were open and a light breeze filtered into the bedroom as the curtains swayed, I strode over to the doors and stepped out into the warming air, there was a blanket on the chair in the corner and a chair was laying on its side but there was no sign of Aria. Panic started setting in and I ran
It's been three days since Aria was taken and each day my heart hurts more and more, my heart feels like it’s being torn from my chest, I've tried reaching her but I get nothing, nada, and it's becoming a war in my head, I want to snap, to fight, to tear the world apart until I find her, but I know it will do no good if I can not think clearly. Each minute I'm fighting my dragon for control, his need for his mate growing more and more as the time passes and he is becoming just as restless as me. I can see the same war playing out on Darian’s face, we're like a mirror image in this exact moment, eyes flashing, teeth bared on the knife-edge of the abyss that lies below, we need to find her and we need to find her now. Sitting in our father’s office waiting for the list of those men who knew about the new surveillance systems that we had installed, we have a rat among us and they helped Eli take Aria from us. Darian’s knee is bouncing up and down and with a hard look on
we trudge through the undergrowth over fallen trees, the crunch of our boots barely audible as we make our way towards the house that holds Aria. I look to my left to where Daarian is and I can see the clench of his jaw from 15ft away he's determined to get her back at all costs consequences be damned. He looks over to me and nods his head once before continuing on with the rest of the troops from our team, Dad and Hunter are ahead of us slightly taking the lead and directing soldiers to fan out around the house. We come up to the top of a hill and look down to where the house is nestled at the bottom of the valley, there is nothing around for miles as I take stock of the land. The crisp night air seeps into my lungs cooling the burning inferno inside me as I breathe in through my nose. We have a team with us the best of the best nothing else would have done not for this, not for Aria she deserves nothing less. I look around at the soldiers wit
We clung to the shadows like a second skin, crawling along the treeline surrounding the shack on every side so there was zero chance any of these pricks were making a run for it. Darian was by my side, his eyes glowing in the shadows as we crept closer to the rear of the building. There was nothing else around no outbuildings, cars or neighbours so we were pretty much sliding along under the radar without the chance of the guards being alerted by someone else. Dad was on the west side of the building with a handful of our own soldiers ready in the shadows and waiting for our signal to move in. Hunter was to the East with the best vantage of the front of the building keeping the two waiting guards in his sight. I looked to my right at my brother who’s eyes bore into me with such a force that if he could shoot lasers my head would have two additions to it. He nodded his head slightly letting me know he was ready to do whatever was needed to get aria
Aria’s POV This cell was starting to stink more and more each day or was it me that was stinking since I wasn’t able to shower or wash properly apart from the dingy bucket of WATER, they left in here every other day? I lay on the tiny cot staring at the ceiling of my prison my mind had often wondered too the twins and what they were doing if they were trying to find me or if they thought I’d run away from them again. A single tear rolled down my cheek at the thought of them not coming for me what if they had just given up? That thought alone caused my chest to ache right above me heart as I tried to rub the pain away. I knew it was completely an irrational notion as the mate bond still thrummed away between us but the thought still hurt whether it was true or not, and after spending god knows how long down here my mind was a complete mess! They had been drugging the foo
I collapse into the arms of my mates and sobbed into Darian’s chest, the heat from their bodies surrounded me at the same time their arms bounded around my shaking body. I clung to them while I balled my eyes out, my body shaking from the remaining adrenaline coursing through me and the fatigue from the fight and running through the woods had taken its toll on my body physically I was shaken but mental I was exhausted, exhausted from being away from my mates, exhausted from being starved, exhausted from thinking they wouldn’t come for me, I almost allowed myself to believe they wouldn’t but when the mate bond pulsed it reminded me to have faith in my mates and in their love for me. We stay huddled together on the damp muddy forest floor holding strong to each other as I took deep breaths to control my sobbing and inhaling their scents something that calmed me almost instantly, the love we had for one another pulsed around
I felt all eyes on me as I spoke.“There is really only one way we can safely deal with Eli without hurting my brother,” I said. Dragus went to speak, but I held up my hand.
That evening was a flurry of preparations. The dragon council’s guards would be here tomorrow to transport us there before the trial began, so we had time to settle in.It was a strange feeling, being in front of the council no one ever really saw them. They remained in the shadows of our world, ruling from behind the scenes rather than taking a hands-on approach in the day to day running of our world.The only reason they chose to hold court was if your crimes were so heinous, the alpha felt the punishment he was able to hand down was too lenient and the council could hand out a more serious punishment fitting of the crime, like with Eli.Everyone was scurrying around packing for the upcoming trip and the housemaids had packed for the alpha and his family, myself included, which left me with my own thou

I woke up the next morning surrounded by my two favourite men. I was laid on Dragus’ chest, while Darian was snuggled in behind me. I tried to stretch a little to test my body. We had made love until the first light of dawn started to appear in the big windows, and then I had fallen asleep in both my mate’s arms as we watched the sun come up fully. My body ached everywhere, but it was a good ache. The kind that sent shivers down my spine and had me smiling at the memory of last night.
I watched as Darian, and Dragus circled around me, matching the other two dragons’ movements.“Come on
We slowly began to make our way down off the ridge. My mother showed me the way that she had got up here. We talked some more as we walked. I told my mother about life and living with the twins and their family. I told her about the friends that I had met in Arcadia and how Ariel had found her fated mate among them when she had come to visit for my 18th birthday. She was happy to hear that Ariel and I were still friends, and I admitted that I couldn’t have done things without her.
My eyes widened as I looked at my mother.“What?” I exclaimed, and she furrowed her eyebrows at me.
“What!” I exclaimed. Did I just hear that right?“Your dragon?” I stared at my mother and she nodded

I didn’t know how to take this. My mum was alive! I took a step back, away from Darian and Dragus. Away from Agnes. Away from it all.
