Kaitlyn's eyes were wide open and filled with shock. Demetria was looking at her mother, waiting for any reaction. This was a bad sign. It looked like Kaitlyn believed in the same lies as Cassius.

- Are you ok? - Demetria asked since the silence was getting awkward, and she was getting scared by her mother's shocked expression.

- Is it true? - Kaitlyn looked at her brother-in-law, and Cassius nodded immediately. - The white dragon.

Demetria sighed heavily. She went through this with her uncle and was not ready to repeat that with her mother.

- Yes, Elena is white, and that is all. She is not a mythical creature with magical powers. She is incredible, but nothing like your dragons from Legends.

Kaitlyn raised her hand, stopping the girl from talking.

- She must be. There is no mistake here.

Cassius joined her.

- You may not believe me, but listen to your mother. Both of us cannot be wrong.

- But you are! - Demetria yelled and left the kitchen. She ran to her room and locked the

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   Give me my spot back

    The storm clouds hung above the pack since the Dragon King announced he would stay in there for a while. Alpha Felix could do nothing else but accept this new situation. Declining it could only bring more problems, and the members of this pack were already terrified. It was strange to see how the streets of the Blue Moon became empty since people decided not to leave their houses unless there was an emergency situation. The whole pack looked like the life was sucked out of it. It was a depressing sight. The packhouse, usually full of life and noise, was now occupied by the dragon and the witch, stuck to him like some creepy shadow. The only person who was simultaneously happy and anxious about the current situation was Kylan. At first, he thought the arrival of Lucius would give him a chance to prove how useful an ally he could become in the future. He did not like to think about him as a king, even if he used this title while speaking to the dragon. For Kylan, they were equal, may

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   Complete shock

    Demetria was standing like hypnotized. Her whole body was vibrating with uneven waves of energy. She never felt like this before. The anger and frustration the girl felt a while ago was slowly fading, replaced by something much more powerful, something strange but pleasant at the same time. - What is going on?- She asked Elena. There was some tickling sensation in every nerve in her body. ~ I am not one hundred percent sure, but it feels like your family was right, and we are not just ordinary. It looks like we released some kind of power. ~ Her dragon replied, and Demetria felt a prick of pride in her inner beast voice. - But why now? I was not even trying. - The girl raised her hands gently, shrugging her arm. ~ Like I just said, I am not an expert here, but I think you should be careful with your hands. ~ Elena said and smirked. Of course, this made Dematria immediately look at her palms. She glanced at them and screamed. - Oh my Goddess, I am on fire!! My hands are on fire! -

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   Time is up/Plan B

    Time is up The deadline Lucius gave them was getting closer, and Demetria could feel how the nervousness lingered in their house. Her mother and Cassius often closed themselves off in the office, and no matter how much she tried, there was no chance to hear what they were talking about. After every conversation, both of them seemed gloomier. To not overthink everything, Demetria focused on her training. She managed to control her magic partly unless some strong emotions were involved, which was happening quite often. The girl was still under the impression of her last dream. It was not as bloody as the previous one, but she could still hear the screams of the people in the pack. Today, Demetria was practicing how to place a proper shield. Her mother taught her that attack was not always the solution; she also had to learn how to protect herself. It was a pleasant training since the girl was really good at it. She managed to build a barrier on the first try. It was a nice change after

    BetrayalLucius was watching the sun getting closer to the horizon. The shadows were getting longer. Soon, the night would take over this place. It was his last day in this pathetic pack, and he was sure I would be memorable. One way or another. The Dragon King was standing on the porch of the pack house, watching the people, who did their best to act natural. Of course, they knew he was leaving. Lucius could almost feel how they impatiently waited for this moment.- It is almost time. They did not show up. - Callista spoke, standing behind him. - It is disappointing.- Why is that? - The Dragon King asked without genuine interest. The day was not over yet.- I thought Kaitlyn would be more reasonable. - The witch replied. She wished to use some more appropriate words to describe her rival, but she reconsidered it, remembering the last time she did it. Callista still felt the burning rage at the thought of Lucius's reaction. Was he still attached to his mate? She betrayed him, yet he s

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   Servants

    Kylan was amazed by the surroundings. This place was what he could only call a screaming luxury. The castle was enormous, truly worth the King living here. Everything in here was telling him how powerful and wealthy Lucius was. The young man has spent a lot of time admiring his chamber, which was more significant than any other room he ever stayed in. It was suitable for the new Alpha. He was walking around it, touching every golden ornament in his reach. Kylan lay on his bed, thinking about the last events. He finally reached his goal and became a leader. He had no remorse about how he got his title. As the Dragon King said, sometimes people need to make hard choices to get what they dream of. Kylan waited long enough while his father was finding new excuses to postpone his stepping down. But now, no one would dare deny his rights since his parents were dead. His people will have to accept him as a leader, and if they will, they won't regret it. Kylan was sure he could bring their

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   Some wounds will never heal.

    Shioban tried to open her eyes, but she quickly gave up when the bright light attacked her pupils. She perked through her almost shut eyelids, allowing herself to adjust to the brightness. She sniffed the air, her nostrils filled with the strong scent of medications. That could mean only one thing, she was in the hospital, but Luna could not think about the reason why she was here. In one moment, she was in her mate's office, excited by the fact that their uninvited guests were about to leave the second she was on the hospital bed. Shioban tried to pull herself up, but then the pain spread across her chest. - Please lay down, Luna. The wounds are not fully healed yet. - She heard the voice that belonged to the pack doctor, Crystal before she was gently pushed back. - Wounds? - Shioban tried to ask, but her voice came out barely a whisper. Luckily, it was enough for the doctor to hear. - You need to rest now. - The woman responded. Luna was finally able to open her eyes for good.

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   The storyteller.

    Demetria's lips parted slightly. That was quick. She expected her father to try to learn more about her beast, but not that fast. The girl fixed imaginary creases on her dress, looking him straight in the eyes. She trembled internally yet maintained to keep a calm expression. - My dragon? - Demetria asked as she was trying to confirm she heard him correctly. Her father leaned to the back of his chair and smirked at her. - Exactly. I am assuming your beast has been awakened for a while already. The girl felt nervousness rising in her body. What was the reason for this sudden interest? Weren't they supposed to have some father-daughter conversation first? - Her name is Elena, and she has been with me since my eighteen birthday. - Demetria decided to tell him the truth, hoping it would be enough information for her father. She quickly discovered how wrong she was. - Can you describe her? Is she beautiful? - Lucius asked with growing interest.Demetria almost shivered, hearing thos

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   Misjudging

    Shioban and Felix stared at the newcomers, unable to gather their thoughts. Luna glanced at the woman standing in front of her. Even if they had never met, she had no doubts about who this persona was—passing years had no impact on her. Kaitlyn looked exactly like in the painting in the book. The witch was an older copy of her daughter. On the other hand, Felix was not taking his eyes off the man, who was scanning the whole surroundings, ready to attack at the slightest sign of danger. - I asked you a question. - Kaitlyn asked annoyedly, crossing her arms on her chest. Her patience was wearing thin. - We do not know.- Alpha replied quietly, still glaring at the Dragon King. - My people just told us she left. With him.- He finished, pointing to the man, who had a shocked expression. - With me?- He asked, and his lips lifted slightly. - You must be mistaken. Shioban was more and more confused with every passing minute. She tried to think about some rational explanation, but none wa

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   New responsibilities

    Kaitlyn and Cassius watched Demetria with concern. It had been hours since the fight was over, and the girl was still shaken. The Dragon Prince joined both women as soon as the battle was over, and Luciu's warriors were defeated. Some of them sadly died, but those who surrounded themselves were spared. Rebels tried to avoid killing, but it was not always possible. The royals who lived in the castle were captured and locked. Their future depended on their decisions. Kaitlyn wished for them to make a Blood Promise to the new ruler. Prisoners from dungeons who disobeyed Luciu's will were now released and could reunite with their families. Messengers were sent to spread the information about the Dragon King's death. The days of his tyranny were over. - Demetria, child, say something.- Cassius came closer and put his hand on the girl's arm, but she only shook her head. Kaitlyn pulled herself a chair and sat in front of her daughter. - Tell us what is going on, and we will try to help

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   Time to finish it

    Demetria's body was shaking as her magic was flowing through her veins. Her wings were flapping gently behind her back. She checked on her shield, and the barrier was stable. That was a good thing, as she doubted she could defeat her father and Callista at the same time. ~Believe in yourself. We are strong, and we can finish it all.~ Elena spoke calmly in her mind. - There is no coming back anyway.- The girl replied, not taking her eyes off her father. Callista was shouting behind the barrier, but the sound was muffled. ~ No, there is no coming back. The rebels are here. They followed you, even without knowing you. We cannot disappoint them.~ Her dragon said with confidence. - They followed freedom. And I want to offer it to them. I want to give freedom to the whole land.- Demetria replied, balling her fists. The flames on them shone with a new power. - It looks like you fooled all of us.- The girl shivered when she heard Luciu's voice. - I did not listen to what Callista was sa

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   Daughter against Father

    Lucius stood in the middle of a coronation room. For ages, kings and queens were officially presented to their people here at the beginning of their reign. He closed his eyes, remembering his celebration. People were cheering while his parents were beaming with pride. He was supposed to be a great king—the greatest of them all. And he fulfilled that. There was no one above him. His people loved him. The one who did not- learned to fear him instead. - What are you doing here?- Lucius asked, not taking his eyes off the massive throne under the wall. As children, he and Cassius loved to watch their father sitting there during his meetings. - I was worried about you.- Demetria said, coming closer. She was here, before him, but Lucius decided to ignore her presence. - Were you? Is there a reason to be worried about me?- The Dragon King finally looked at his daughter. She looked exactly like her mother. Kaitlyn was the only woman who managed to warm up his cold heart—a woman who betra

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   Preparing to strike

    A few hours earlier.Clara stood in front of Cassius, Kaitlyn, and Nickolas, looking at them in confusion. - Do not be scared, child. - The witch gave her a reassuring smile. - We would like to know how you got to the mountains unnoticed. This information may be essential and crucial for all of us. - We came through a tunnel, my lady. - The girl replied, shrugging her arms. - Your daughter told us what to do and where to go. I followed her directions. - Tunnel? What tunnel?- Nickolas gave Cassius a puzzled look, but the Dragon Prince only shook his head. He had no idea what this girl was talking about. If there was some sort of secret passage to the mountains, he was not aware of that. - Can you show us where exactly you came in here?- Kaitlyn glanced at Clara again, and the girl nodded. - It was in the cave where the warriors found us. I did not dare to move any further. The witch looked at her companions. They had only one choice. They needed to go back to this cave and invest

    Callista entered Amanda's coven and rushed through the corridors, expecting to find its leader in her office. The witch was filled with a newfound energy. Her dream was about to come true. Lucius forgave her her past mistakes and was willing to make her his Queen. In fact, there was more than her dream. They shared a bed, but until now, she was nothing more than his mistress. But that was about to change, as Lucius promised to reject Kaitlyn once and for all. For many years, Callista wondered why he had not taken this step, but she did not dare question his actions. She tried to convince herself that he kept their bond to torment his mate through this. Kaitlyn had to be fully aware when they were intimate, which made Callista enjoy those moments even more. Since they were children, Callista envied Kaitlyn mainly because she could not be like her. There was always a gap between them, and no matter how much Callista tried, she could never be like her old friend. Finding that Kaitlyn w

    Cynthia chuckled while Kylan watched her dumbfounded. Why was she after him? What was her problem? They barely knew each other, and she already seemed to despise him. - You are holding a grudge against me, and I cannot see a reason.- The young man spoke with confusion. - Is there anything that could make me dislike you?- The witch replied with her question, tilting her head. - I have no idea. Is there? Since we have met, you have treated me like your enemy, not openly, but your intentions are clear.- Kylan retorted in an offended tone. Of course, he knew people who were not his biggest fans, and recently, this list extended by a few more names, but they usually had a reason for that. But this girl just hated him for nothing. He indeed had a bit of bad luck with witches. Cynthia giggled to some joke only she knew, and Kylan shot her another puzzled look. There was something seriously wrong with her. - Don't get me wrong. It is not like I do not like you personally; I don't like yo

    Kane was lying on the ground, panting, while blood dripped from his many wounds. His wings were tattered, his scales were ripped off in a few places, and his leg was severely burnt. The dragon's healing ability was not fast enough to help him regain strength. General's beast growled weakly, glaring at Cassiu's dragon hovering over him like a walking death. The black beast was watching him calmly, with smoke coming out of his nostrils. Kane understood he had lost this battle before it even began. In his ridiculous pride, he had forgotten who his opponent was. Cassius was the Dragon Prince, and royal blood ran in his veins. Even the years he spent in the dungeon did not break his spirit. They fought for an hour, and none of the general's attempts to harm the Prince were successful. Cassius was in total control during the battle, playing with Kane like a toy. What was worse was that the general knew that the Prince had at least a few chances to end his life, but for some unknown

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   An ultimate betrayal

    Lucius was fuming. His generals were gone for a while, and there was no sign of them coming back from their successful mission. Dragon King ordered his warriors to keep an eye on the sky and inform him as soon as they would see anything. Their prolonged absence was unsettling, and Lucius could not shake the feeling that things had gone differently from what he had planned. The Dragon King summoned his daughter and Callista as if their presence could help him ease his stress.Not long later, both women entered his office, shooting him concerned looks. - Is everything okay, Father?- Demetria was the first to speak. She could already suspect what was the reason for Luciu's request. It was hard to miss all those warriors glancing at the sky with hope. Generals left the castle a few hours ago, and none of them returned by now. Demetria suspected they had met a strong resistance from rebels. She silently hoped they were all captured. - My King, how can I assist you? Is there anything I

  • Rejected Dragon Queen   Amongst the rogues

    Kylan reached the rogue's camp together with his captors. They did not tie him, which was odd. After all, he could try to attack the leader. He would probably be dead shortly after, but still, leaving him free was a bit risky. The young man turned around at the sound of the chuckle. It was the woman whom he had met not long before. She was a witch. Kylan wondered if the gods cursed him. Why did he always have to encounter women who possessed magical powers? First Callista, now this young woman. He glanced again at the girl who was walking nearby. She looked serious, but then another smirk escaped her lips. It was frustrating, and Kylan thought maybe she was mentally unstable since she was acting so weird. Luckily, he had no more time to think about that as they reached the camp. There was no better term to describe this place, as wherever he looked were tents. There was no single building here, and it was as if those people lived without staying anywhere longer. - How do you find
