Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 20: Phoenix
I like the fire dragon hybrid. She’s powerful, as all fire dragons are, but she also has an air of authority to her. That’s the Lycan blood in her. But because she’s a dragon, she’s inherently kind and loving. It seems funny to say that a creature that can breathe fire that is hot enough to melt a person into nothing is kind and loving, but it’s true. It’s one of the reasons that I’m mated to dragons so often when I rise. She’ll be good for Emmi, I think. A good friend and ally, someone she can trust.“Ajax!” Kenna calls out and Emmi turns to smile at him. His answering smile is beautiful. I almost miss it because of the earth dragon behind him. I frown as he walks away. Something is off with that earth dragon. We met him before, Kenzo is his name. I want to see where he’s going, but Emmi is focused on Ajax.The moment Ajax takes us into his arms and his lips press against ours, I forget all about anything and everything else in this world. I let my love and passion for Ajax flow throu

Well, I just got a first-hand look at when and how Phoenix and Emmi disconnect. I thought we were making good progress and I’m very thankful that I was with her when she smelled Kenzo. The students are frightened enough by her. I don’t want them to start ostracizing her more than they already do. And I'm not completely sure that she wouldn't have hurt Kenzo.“Breathe. There is no immediate danger, Phoenix.”“You don’t know that, Ajax,” she says, her higher pitched voice sounding agitated.“Do you think that Avani would quietly begin fighting if someone were here to take his son’s eggs? He would announce the attack, and the battle would be on,” I say, trying to calm her down. I can feel her agitation, see it in the flames in her eyes and around her body. It’s not engulfing her body like it does when we kiss, but it’s moving around, going out and popping up in new spots.“How did the wolves miss it? They should have smelled the scent that I did.”“Your sense of smell and sense of danger

The mood around the Academy has just become very festive, aside from the few in our circle. Everyone is excited for the dragon babies, babies that they never thought would be possible.While the others get ready for classes, Ajax leads me back to the big house.“So, are you going to tell me what’s going on or what?” Kenzo asks.“Leave it be, Kenzo. We’re obviously not meant to know what’s going on. As it is, if Ancalagon hears that someone from the outside got in and was checking out his eggs, we’ll have a huge friggin problem on our hands,” Tesha tells him.“You said that the magic you smelled on me is what’s coming for the dragons. You knew that before Ishir and Tesha confirmed it. How did you know? What are you? King Yhendorn called you Phoenix and that’s what Ajax called you yesterday too. Is that what you are? A phoenix?” he asks, ignoring Tesha.Faster than I would have thought, Ajax grabs Kenzo and yanks him into an area where we have some privacy, slamming him against a tree.“

I can feel Emmi getting nervous, the flush of her cheeks is an obvious indication that I’m right. Everyone in the room just turned to stare at her.“The birth of the dragons?” I ask, squeezing my mate’s hand. I see the flicker of flames come into her eyes and I know Phoenix has come forward.“Are those the only two references that you’ve found, elvish king?” she asks him.“In my quick review, yes,” he says, recognizing that there were others. I’m sure he’ll dig deeper into his archives to find those references.“Your ancestor led the battle in The Great Clash. You, both of you,” she says, including Merethyl, “are descended from good, strong elves. Elves who believe in what is right. It’s probably why both of you are mated to dragons.”“That’s good to know,” Yhendorn says, smiling at Kenna.“Did you cause the birth of the dragons?” Tana asks her.“Yes and no. In that time, humans had not yet come into existence. The earth was still tumultuous, almost fighting itself to become the planet

That night, Kenna didn’t return. I’ve been alone for a long time, but for some reason, the empty room feels even more lonely.I sit on my bed, looking around the room. Maybe because it’s Kenna, or maybe she just got lucky, but our room is on the top floor, overlooking the small hills behind the big house. I’d heard that Kaylani and Everett had built their house there and that Fenian and Tesha had built one when they knew they were going to have a baby too. I have the window open, so I can smell the scents of fires burning in fireplaces in their homes. I imagine that both homes look like something out of a Hallmark movie. That’s really the only reference I have to homes with fireplaces. I had a foster mom who loved Hallmark movies and she’d let me watch them with her. Everyone always seemed so happy and I always wondered what that would feel like.I yelp, leaping to my feet when I hear a rapping on the window beside me. I slap my hand over my mouth, stopping the scream when I see Ajax f

When Ishir and Avani returned, Avani said that they ran into a place where he could feel the magic, but he wasn’t able to remove it. Even flying and trying to go around it, they couldn’t catch the scent or trail of the witch and warlock, so they lost them. They even took Cedric and several Alpha wolves out to see if they could catch the scent, but the magic was strong and they weren’t able to continue following them.Kenna and Yhendorn didn’t return for several more days, which meant that I got to spend my days with Emmi and Phoenix, and a large portion of my nights as well. After the second time of Phoenix burning off Emmi’s clothes, I told her she had to stop.“We have to wait for Emmi to be ready, Phoenix. I refuse to push her into something that she isn’t ready or willing to do.”Emmi had surprised me by speaking up. “I’d like to maybe do more than just kiss,” she said.“What would you like to do, beautiful?” I asked her.I’m more than ready to take our relationship further. As a f

I was excited and nervous to see Ajax in the morning, but he welcomed me with a smile as he jogged over from talking to Kaylani.“So I got in trouble for last night,” Ajax whispers in my ear.I look past him to Kaylani.“How did she find out?”“The window was open ...” he says, watching me. It takes me a moment to realize that she’d heard me calling Ajax’s name while I was ... My eyes go wide and I’m pretty sure my face lights on fire.I cover my mouth with my hand. “I’m so embarrassed.”“Don’t be. She understands, but she says it has to stop. She can’t make exceptions to the rules and I understand that. So, let’s plan to go flying tonight. You did ask if we could do it again,” he says, smiling at me.I feel a different heat igniting in my core at the thought of having a repeat of last night.His eyes look past me and he straightens. “Hi Dion, Hi Sena,” he says.I turn and smile at them. “Good morning.’“Good morning,” they say, still looking wary about walking into the dining hall.

I was nervous all throughout class and my instructors noticed, especially my father.“Ajax,” he called at the end of his human anatomy class.I jogged up to him, wanting to go check on Emmi. “What’s up, Dad?” It’s still weird to call someone dad, but I like it. Apparently, he does too because he smiles at me before answering.“Why don’t you tell me? You were very distracted in class today. That’s not like you.’“Sorry. Emmi’s working with Tana this morning and I’m anxious to make sure she’s okay.”He raises an eyebrow at me, wrapping an arm around my shoulder as we walk back toward the big house. “You don’t trust Tana?”“No, I do, it’s just ...” I huff out a sigh. “I do. But Emmi is struggling with connecting to Phoenix and the fire seems to be biggest issue.”“Then I’d say a fire dragon is the perfect being to help her learn that her fire can be controlled and calming.”“Calming? Fire?” I ask, raising my own eyebrow at him.He stops and turns to look at me. “Have you never sat by a ca

Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 48: Zephyr
We all heard the scream, the screeching sound that I somehow knew was Phoenix. Most of my children were in the nursery, except for Kaze who is a teenager in his dragon form and Lyra who is only three months old. Kaze was in school, taking flight lessons this morning and Lyra is home with me.Ishir had taken Nova and Brooke on a run through the forest, both girls loving the time that they get to spend with their father. I’d just finished nursing Lyra and put her down for a nap when I heard Phoenix's warning and cold fear had rushed through my body. The witches are here.I grabbed Lyra and raced to the Big House. They have the nursery there and I know some of the older teenagers, like Enya and Aspen will be there. Unlike Kaze and the other elemental children with the dragon gene, neither of those young women were raised to fight, so it’s better for them to stay and protect the young.As I rush into the Big House to drop Lyra off, Everett is coming in from the medical center with the gir
Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 47: Ajax
I felt the rush of fear from Emmi a moment before I felt power unlike anything I’ve ever felt before flow through my body. That was followed closely by a burning fury that rushed through my veins as Phoenix’s mind snapped into my consciousness. I knew before I saw her that Phoenix had risen and that the battle was here.I raced out of class, rushing to her and had tripped when I saw her flaming body in the sky. She is utterly and completely gorgeous.Then, my own fear brought me back to reality as hybrids and laboratory dragons all shifted and launched into the air to fight her.“NO!” I screamed, watching Kenna fly up to snap at the dragons flying toward Emmi.I watch Daichi, an earth dragon lunge at Phoenix but Tana flies up to intercept. She bellows that them to stay back while Kenzo tries to tell the others to stop. Tesha, in her scaled Lycan form flies in front of Phoenix, trying to help protect her as wolves come rushing from every direction.“AJAX!” Ancalagon bellows, flying in
Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 46: Phoenix
Something didn’t feel right about the time it has taken for the witches to attack. I’ve kept my senses sharpened on the portal, waiting for the moment when the witch or multiple witches come through, but so far, nothing.It’s not sitting well with me. I’m here, and there’s a reason I’m here. They wouldn’t have put the portal beside the hatching grounds if they weren’t planning to steal the eggs, so why wait?‘I want Ajax to take us to the place where the others felt the magic and couldn’t find the witches. I would fly us, but I’m not sure you’re ready for that yet,’ I tell Emmi. I wish I could fly. I want to so desperately, but I know it would disappoint Ajax if I pushed Emmi too hard, too fast.‘I’m not sure we want anyone to see you yet,’ she says, but I can feel how terrified she is about flying.She goes to find Ajax and tells him what I said, since I still can’t mentally connect with him.“Phoenix, Ishir has been there multiple times. He has the best nose of any shifter out there.
Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 45: Emmi
Watching dragon eggs hatch over several hours should have gotten boring, but it didn’t, not for any of us. The entire school watched as eggs began to rock, then chip, then little baby dragons would fall out of their shells to be greeted by their parents.The green eggs, the earth dragons, came first. Then fire, followed by air and water. The last one was the single golden egg.“Why is that one gold?” I ask Ajax, but it’s Phoenix who answers.“She will be the Queen of the Dragons.”When Ajax tells me he doesn’t know, I tell him in our mind link what Phoenix said.He turns and looks at me and I shrug. “That’s what she said.”When she hatches, daintily falling out of her shell, I knew Phoenix was right. Unlike her brothers and sisters, the queen has multi-colored scales, just like Eliane. She has all four elements.Once they were born, I was surprised that Ancalagon and Eliane weren’t as fiercely protective of them. It was almost as if their need to protect diminished the moment the babie
Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 44: Ajax
Zephyr and Avani were able to convince Ancalagon and Eliane to move their clutch once the eggs hatch. Since there’s so much excitement about having this many baby dragons around, nearly everyone pitches in to help set up an area where the babies can live and where we can secretly make sure that they are safe.Classes resumed, but around the classes Emmi and I helped clear out the space for the dragon hatchlings, we helped to monitor the portal, we checked on the status of our house, and I continued to work with Emmi and Phoenix on their connection.I’ll admit that I use what works and what seems to work is me. When we’re together, that seems to be when Emmi and Phoenix connect the most.“Start with your fingers,” I say. She’s sitting in front of me again, but this time, we’re at our mountain. It’s been a long time since we were able to come out here but I wanted privacy to work with Emmi on connecting with Phoenix today.I kiss the side of her neck, moving her hair out of the way and n
Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 43: Banari
**Trigger Warning: Sexual ViolenceI’ve lost everything! Those fucking dragons have taken everything from me, my life, my friends, and my pride. I don’t mean pride in myself. Now that I’m part lion, I feel the need to have an actual pride of women to feast on any time the urge strikes me, which is all the fucking time. I know the others used to get annoyed that I killed so many and I was always looking for more, but it’s not my fault that I lose control like that. It feels so fucking good to be king, to be able to empty myself inside MY lionesses, that I tend to shift while I’m still inside them.It probably wouldn’t be as bad if I wasn’t also part earth dragon. But the two don’t meld well, so when I shift, my cock is fucking huge. And, well, most women can’t handle the size and while I’m blissed out on my fucking incredible orgasm, I’ve split more than one woman in half.Still, it isn’t my fault. I didn’t ask to be like this. I didn’t ask to be part dragon and part lion. But it has ma
Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 42: Emmi
After the new hybrids arrived, everything went back to normal. Well, almost. They put the three of them on trial which lasted nearly a week and Phoenix caught the scent of magic again.Thankfully, we were with Ajax and he was able to keep her calm. Rather than showing our hand that we’d found it and risk having the witches try again, we’d told the elementals. It’s difficult because no one but Phoenix, and therefore, me, can sense the magical energy. The elementals said they could probably feel it if they could get closer to it, but no one wants to risk angering Ancalagon or Eliane.However, the opportunity presented itself to Zephyr later in the week. She was spending time with Iniko who apparently still thinks of the hatching grounds as his home. He had waddled right up to Ancalagon and everyone had held their breath. However, both he and Eliane had accepted him and then allowed Zephyr to come get him before the hot ground burned his paws. He started going over there every day, so Zep
Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 41: Elio
In the end, there were only five hybrids who were adults and could act as peers to Gideoni, Iris, and Fordin. Ajax is old enough but because of his relationship with Emmi who was held captive, Merethyl and King Yhendorn said he couldn’t be impartial. Tesha, Keagan, Kano, Valko, and myself were the ones who were selected to be the jury of their peers.Enya, Aspen, Naida, and Drakon weren’t happy about not being part of the group, but they understood. None of them are yet eighteen, and I wouldn't wish this on anyone. However, they did petition to sit in on the proceedings and Everett and Kaylani agreed to allow it.A week after the others arrived, we held court. We followed the elvish ways rather than the human ways, although they are very similar. Each individual stands before us separately and pleads their case. The five of us decide their fate, three out of five is all that’s needed for a final decision.While Gideoni and Iris didn’t participate in collecting, raping, or injecting the
Rise of the Phoenix Chapter 40: Ajax
After finding Cedric and Merethyl and telling them what Ishir told me, I let them figure things out. I don’t want to take Emmi back there to face the people who held her captive.“Let’s go check on the status of our house,” I say to her.It’s been several weeks since Cedric’s pack members began building it. I have to admit, they are pretty incredible when it comes to building our homes and packhouses around the Academy lands. The elvish castle has taken the longest because the elves prefer that their home be made of stone and natural rock. Being part earth dragon, I understand why. The feel of something strong and natural surrounding you makes the magic inside you hum. Wood is okay, but it doesn’t feel the same.However, for our home, it doesn’t matter. Emmi and Phoenix make my body hum more than any element from the earth ever could. As long as I have them, I don’t care what our home is built with, so we opted for wood which makes it faster to build than if we'd used stone.“Wow, it’s
