Surrogate of the Sleeping Dragon Chapter 25 : Test Results
*Ember*I sat on the floor next to the wastebasket I had vomited in. I had been worried this entire time that Kieran's sperm sample didn't work, and now I felt my body become numb with shock at the possibility that I could be pregnant. Not only pregnant but pregnant with Kieran's baby. I couldn't believe what was happening."Don't go anywhere!" Kieran shouted excitedly, the shock was written all over his face as he pointed at me and ran out of my bathroom. I shook my head. I don't think I was going anywhere, I felt nauseous and dazed. I had never really known anyone who had been pregnant in my life. Was this what it was like to discover being pregnant? I didn't like feeling sick and out of control. I just needed to trust that Kieran knew what he was doing. I rubbed my eyes trying to will the dizziness away. We really should have kept some pregnancy tests in my bathroom. Did they really think I'd be able to make it to the lab to take a test? I heard Kieran come scuffling back
Surrogate of the Sleeping Dragon Chapter 26 : Pure Delight
*Ember*I imagined what the cannon would sound like as the boom of it shooting at us echoed in my ears. I had let my imagination run wild with this daydream and I thought I could hear Kieran shouting my name above the loud wind sailing around us. "Ember! Ember! Are you okay?" his voice called. My eyes shot open with surprise and I looked into Kieran's worried gaze.He must have been shaking my shoulders because I realized his hands were placed on either side of me as he sat haphazardly on the window seat. "Ember! You were talking in your sleep, I didn't mean to startle you," he explained, removing his hands off of my shoulders and placing them on his thighs. "I was?" I asked with a surprised tone. Perhaps my daydream was more than that… I must have started dreaming. "Maybe I fell asleep?""I think you did, you are probably tired from everything that happened this morning," Kieran said pointing toward my stomach. "Growing a baby is hard work.""I guess so," I said, feel
Surrogate of the Sleeping Dragon Chapter 27 : I Want More
*Ember*I felt a warm blush wash all over me as I lay in Kieran’s arms in the great outdoors. I hadn’t really known what it would be like. Even though I’d imagined it countless times, I was pleasantly surprised at how good it all felt. I playfully kissed him on the lips and he wrapped his arms around me, holding me close. "So, we are officially making love," Kieran said, propping his head up on his arm and watching me."Well, yeah," I said, feeling comfortable with him now. "I didn't know it would be this good though.""It's only going to get better," he said, still studying my body. "I need you," he whispered into my ear and I felt his dick get hard again.I smirked, "Is that so?" as I turned towards him and leaned up on my elbow."You bet it is," he said, kissing my chest and placing my hand on his cock. I stroked him with my hand and he growled into my neck. "And I think you need this again," I whispered in his ear.He lifted his head up to mine and grinned with
Surrogate of the Sleeping Dragon Chapter 28 : Rude Awakening
*Ember*"Kieran," I said, putting my book down while Kieran headed over to me and sat on the end of the lounge chair next to me. I observed him wondering why his shoulders seemed tense and his body was rigid as he sat down. Maybe he didn't sleep well. I couldn't help but reach out to grasp his arm empathizing with him since I too had been struggling to sleep lately."Ember," he said, sucking in a deep breath as my skin touched his. Did he not like it when I touched him? I had only just gotten used to the fact that I could touch him without hurting him. It would be discouraging if he didn't want me to touch him.Interrupting my thoughts, Kieran continued with a question as he looked deep into my eyes, "How are you?""Good. How are you? You don't look too good," I asked looking at him. He looked like he was going to throw up, perhaps he had been pushing himself too much lately.He gritted his teeth and gave me a tense smile. "What are you reading?"I sighed knowing he was ign
Surrogate of the Sleeping Dragon Chapter 29 : A Low Level Mage
*Kieran*"We just can't be sure who this woman was, Kieran," Nola repeated in my study as I rubbed my chin in contemplation at her words.Thorne and Zephyr stood at my sides looking back from me to Nola. We were strategizing our next move in regards to Ember's strange nightmare earlier this morning. I had put all other meetings on hold, because this was Ember we were talking about. I wouldn't have her safety or my child's safety put in jeopardy. "Well, that's just not good enough," I shouted with frustration. "We need to know who we are dealing with. She's got enough magic to penetrate the castle barriers and get inside Ember's head. She has to be someone of importance, and we need to find out who she is. Now."I reiterated my words and knew that the three of them heard me. Nola gave me a very tense but serious look. It had only been a few hours before, where she had discovered I may have romantic feelings for Ember. So she knew why I was so worked up more than usual. "Ther
Surrogate of the Sleeping Dragon Chapter 30 : Lockebrooke Forest
*Ember*We traveled in Kieran's car through the part of the Lockebrooke Forest that had a road. Kieran and I had finished our previous evening at Fae Fountain Tavern and early the next morning, he came to my room to wake me up for our trip to the forest. I watched as the large tree trunks passed by my window as he expertly drove around the curves and bends in the road, occasionally turning to glance at me. We had been quiet, sipping on the water in my travel cup taking it all in."Lockebrooke Forest," Kieran said with a whistle as he looked away from me and back through his windshield. "This forest must hold a lot of secrets. I'm interested to know how this Seraphina woman has survived in the woods for so long.""I know," I said, raising my eyebrows and placing my cup down. I continued speaking, uttering a question I was afraid to ask, "What do you think will happen?""I'm not sure, Ember," Kieran said with a concerned voice. "I think it's good that we prepared the others in ca
Surrogate of the Sleeping Dragon Chapter 31 : Seraphina's Wisdom
*Kieran*I ate my stew after we filled our bowls, eyeing Seraphina carefully. I didn't want to make any sudden moves or say the wrong thing that could make her further distrust me as a dragon. I was hoping there was some way we could convince her to teach Ember. Ember seemed quieter as well as she ate her food. Seraphina was telling us a story about a time when Verona was teaching her a complicated spell."Then she passed me the ball of fire she had made and yelled, 'Catch!'" Seraphina gestured as if she was throwing a ball at Ember. Ember and I couldn't help but chuckle. It sounded like the two had been very close. Although I wondered who Ember's father was and why her mother hadn’t told his identity to her best friend. Perhaps this would have to remain a mystery. For now, I was just happy to know that Ember had more information about her birthright and who she truly was. Even if it was a little awkward interacting with someone who despised dragons, this trip had been worth
Surrogate of the Sleeping Dragon Chapter 32 : Wait and See
*Ember*We drove past the gate as we made it safely onto the castle grounds after visiting Seraphina. I felt drained emotionally and physically and I barely registered the fact that Kieran had pulled into the castle's large garage filled with everyone's cars. He parked the car and turned it off, twisting his body toward me. "So," he started to say as he looked me up and down. "What did you think about that excursion? What did you think of Seraphina? I’m sure you weren’t expecting her to have been good friends with your mother.""Um, a mix of good and bad? I guess? And I had no idea my mom and her were friends." I grimaced and shrugged. "I really wish Seraphina would agree to train me. I'd learn more spells and skills from her faster than I have currently been learning. She seems like such a wise person."Kieran eyed me curiously as I explained my feelings to him. He fiddled with a few buttons on his car distractedly as he watched me, and nodded in response, "I understand. I co
