As I walk through the last of the meadow her lips start a trail up my neck. The heat from her lips is such a pleasant surprise that my steps almost falter. I have to halt them fully when her teeth come in to play and I start thinking about them sinking into my neck. A groan leaves my neck as I tilt it to give her better access. It almost feels as if her touch gives me strength. The fabric of my robe against my skin is rough and I crave the smoothness of hers pressed against mine. The thought of her hands gliding over the flesh of my muscles is the most erotic thought that I have ever had. My feet start moving again when I can no longer take the torture and it feels like my cock is hard enough to cut glass. I stand shocked as I exit the trees only to realize that I have just come out of the other side of the meadow. I look around in frustration and confusion as I wonder what the hell happened.“Perhaps that I forgot to mention that we are still inside your head. I would imagine that
The World of love is all that I know. The very word lies at the heart of my strength and my weakness. My beast thrives in it and uses it to gain power. The power of love has made me the leader of the dragon clan The power of love has been the very answer to how my clan would now survive in a world where the humans have locked us away.When they put us here they didn't even make sure we had proper shelter. They didn't care if we had food. If it weren't for my parents, my clan Scarlet Light would have been lost without me. the other clans may have also perished without our donations. After thirteen years of being place here, our people now thrive. Our fields and livestock now can sustain our people and many more, now that we know how many of us there are. Many other dragons who deserve the home and privileges we have made.The life of privilege is one that I have always known. Born from an egg, I woke up in a loving home. My mother was a professor at the local college. She focused her t
After two long weeks, the day that we have all been waiting for is here. As I finish the reports of the day on my computer, my leg bounces with anticipation of what is to come. A smile graces my face as I try to picture what my mate will look like. I wonder if she will be tiny like Maximus' mate Emily. I imagine that since I am even large than him the anatomy of putting our bodies together would be quite difficult. As I have the thought the laughter of my dragon rings out in my head.You honestly think that you would have a problem with the size of our mate. At this point you would be happy with anyone who didn't have male parts. And the best part of all of this ........is you don't even know how the parts work."You know you could learn to be a bit more supportive. This is going to be your mate too. Do you even know what you want in a mate" I ask him.His golden face appears in my mind and I can see his pensive expression clearly. I remove my fingers from the keys of the keyboard and
As the horn sounds for us to wake up I rise from my cot and bang a fist against the bed above me. Rising from the bed I stretch as I walk over to the sink to brush my teeth and was my face before leaving the cell. My cell mate Nona groans as her body cracks in all places from such horrible arrangements. With a grimace I place the toothbrush in my mouth and brush my teeth as quickly as I can.Even after being in here for four years I still can't stand the toothpaste. It's supposed to be healthy because it contains baking soda. They definitely tried to cover the amount of salt with the barest hint of mint. The first couple of months I spent using it I almost threw up from the overwhelming taste of salt. Now that I have been here for so long it is just another part of the day that I hate. I move away from the sink allowing Nona to prepare for her morning also as I change into the only other set of close I have. A white t-shirt and another jump suit. Everyone wears the same uniform. Wear
I am jerked out of the sleep I have fallen into when a weight shifts my seat on the bus. I jerk so hard that I hit my head on the window that I was leaning against. Turning toward my intruder I turn and press my back against it as I see the guard in my face once more.I look at him warily as his gaze sweeps over my body. I quickly look down to make sure that all my clothes are intact and sigh with relief when I see that they are. Looking back at him I roll my eyes at the smile on his face. Knowing him he was probably thinking that I wanted my clothes off or something. "You might want to keep those little looks to yourself princess. I have already seen what you have underneath that jumpsuit. If you want it removed then all you have to do is say so" he says as he licks his lips."I told you once and I will tell you again. I would rather die than have any of you disgusting men touch a single hair on my head" I spit between my teeth. My newfound boldness has me squaring my shoulders agai
I told you that was a bad idea. There were other ways that we could have shown her what we are. Now you have gone and terrified our mate..."We share the same head you know. You can see what my intention was" I reply.She smells like wildflowers....We love wildflowers. I really hope you know what you are doing with our mate. There is no cheating to the mate bond."I wouldn't necessarily call it cheating. I would much prefer we used the phrase speeding up the potential problems" I offered. You may think that you can avoid all the problems now, but we both know that love is never that easy.With that gentle reminder my dragon fades into the back of my mind with a swish on his long golden tale. I get a better grip on my mate and turn to follow the rest of the prisoners in. As I walk I look down at her face and take in her features more closely. She truly is beautiful. Her skin is a smooth honey and looks to be the smoothest skin I have ever seen. Her lips are plump and pink. Even though
I feel different. Normally when I wake it is with an overwhelming sense of dread that I know exactly how my day is going to go. For four years I have been wasting away in this prison. I lost hope that first day when they stripped me of everything I owned and threw me away. They gave me a schedule. I was told when I could eat. I was told when I could go outside. I was given limited options on what I could have. I was told that I would no longer have a future. I wasn't a part of society anymore. I believed that I would die there. This time waking up is different. A feeling swirls in my chest and I frown as I try to decipher it. It's warm and fuzzy. Yet, it's something that I haven't felt in years. When my eyes finally open the lights in the room are bright. I blink around automatically knowing that I am in not in the darkness of the prison. The air here isn't stale and stagnant. It smells chemical almost.Suddenly my memory returns and I look around the room to see the giant man as he
This truly can't be happening. If she was willing then she should understand how this has to go. We cannot rush the mating process. Nothing good could come from it but her death. There has to be a bond of love before the marking can happen. Why would I be blessed with a mate who doesn't care for the value of her own life? Would being with someone of my kind really be so bad.It was a mistake to show her what we are so soon. Now she doesn't want anything to do with us. Your stupid plan is costing us our mate. You need to do something.Her voice cuts off the demands of my beast and we are both shocked by what she says next. If what she said before was bad then her words now fill me with fear. "if I am to die anyway, then does the process really matter." Her words cause me to feel intense shock and I can't believe what she has just said.What is wrong with our mate. Why is she dying? We cannot lose her Xander."Why are you going to die? Is there something wrong with you? Are you sick?" I

I know that there is something wrong with me. I seem to feel lost even though I know exactly where I am. I look up from the wildflower I play with and see my meadow. In confusion I search around the room for the one I was just in. I could have sworn I was just in the old facilities that we used to have here. However, that just doesn’t make sense because we got rid of them. I remember being the one to give the order for their destruction. I walk a few steps forward in the meadow and place my hands on the rock. A sigh of relief leaves my chest as I feel that it is real. For a moment there I really thought that it wouldn’t be. Touching this rock feels so differently that it has felt in the past. As I take a seat on it I know that something is different. As I look at this place I no longer feel the peace that it always used to bring me. It is the woman. You have let her cast a spell.“Its not a spell. I was simply intrigued. Even you liked her scent and the way she looked. I have cau
This odd form of my mate staggers as he gets to his feet and looks at me. The look he gives holds no pure intentions. I smile in glee at the revelation that I just had. My dragon asked me to take a chance and to trust that I could do this. To trust that I could handle whatever this is. I was terrified of what I would find when I came in here. For the first time in however long I have been here, I am not afraid.“You are going to pay for that you little bitch” He growls. He cracks his neck and I see as his wound starts to heal right before my eyes. I widen my stance as I stare at me unbothered. “I have a price to pay. I am just not too sure that you are going to like it” I say in warning as I wait for him to attack. I know that I need him to attack. No matter what this time though I need to keep my hands free. I truly hope that I can do this without having to endure his foul taste again. “I am going to enjoy everything that I take from you. Especially the life of the bastard child
We do not have much time Tika. If we are going to do what needs to be done then it has to be now. We can debate how wrong she was later.I feel fear all through out my body. Diving into what my dragon describes as the dark side of hell wasn’t on my to do list today. However, it makes me understand where Avery is coming from. I would really do just about anything to get my mate back. At this point it happens to include diving into this deep, dark abyss. My dragon cant even tell me if we are going to make it out on the other side of this.“Well I guess it’s a good thing that I’m not a bitch right?” I state. I ask the question aloud to solidify my resolve. I don’t want to do this. I don’t know how it will affect our son. Without another thought I say a silent prayer and then I jump in.As soon as the stuff touches my skin I immediately want to hurl. I feel beyond sick to my stomach as the iciness of the liquid touches me. Its so suffocating that I feel as if I cant breathe. I claw at
The strength that I have been pretending to have this entire time is fading. I had to block Anthony from the mind link because of his constant checking on me. I look at the woman before me with guilt once more. There are still things that I haven’t told her but I need her to do this. If she knew exactly what could happen, then she wouldn’t willingly agree. I hope that if the inevitable happens that she will understand. I will do anything to save my mate and the father of my children.As she takes my hands I try to give her an encouraging smile. Out of the corner of my eyes all I see is my mate. Just a bit ago during her ether journey he had fallen unconscious. I can feel as our bond is weakening. This time is just so much worse than the last. Even I can feel some of the effects from the poison the body has caused in the ether. If we are unable to come up with a solution, I fear that I may truly lose him this time.I want him to come home to our children. I want to lead our clan as w
There are no word for what I feel right now as I am directed to stand over Xander. I take a deep breath as I try to make myself keep hope. They say that he is still in there but I have a hard time believing it. I take the back of my hand and smooth it over the light dusting of stubble that covers his cheek. Tears fill my eyes as the tingles are barely there. They might as well be nonexistent.We must keep our faith. We need our mate. Our young needs our mateHer words cause me to freeze for a moment. Through all of this I had nearly forgotten that I was pregnant. My hand flies to my stomach as I close my eyes and send love to my baby. Whether or not we get your father back, I can love you enough for the both of us.“We need to start Tika. I know this isn’t easy but we are running out of time” Avery says as she lays a hand on my shoulder. My eyes open slowly as I meet her gaze. A shuddering breath leaves my chest and I grab her hands like she wants.“Let’s begin” I state with confi
As I storm out of the hospital area from where my mates stayed beyond, my feelings were indescribable. For so long I had imagined what it would be like when I finally saw them again. I had imagined ridding myself of the pain that has plagued me for so long. Knowing now that I will never have that chance, its almost worse than all the pain that I have been carrying around for years.I would walk around my room at the facility in tears from the loss of the bond. Each night was cold and filled with so much pain that I thought it would never end. Trying to get out of bed was a momentous effort. Eating became a chore instead of a pleasurable act. Life was lived just to get through the day instead of finding moments of enjoyment.The worst part of all was picturing they’re faces. Even after so many years my memories did me no justice. Seeing them made me so happy but it was also like a stab to the heart. Feeling those precious tingles against my skin now makes me feel dirty when they are
The room falls quiet as everyone turns to stare at me. I still cant even hide how pissed I am at the situation. These people shouldn’t even be here. Yet they stand here making demands of us. The whole clan is feeling the loss of our alpha. For me its more than them. For over a decade I have stood by his side. I was more than just an errand boy. He meant something to me. I never truly understood the concept of family until I realized that he was gone. Its nothing that I would ever say to his face, however.The prisoner. We need to speak to the prisoner. He is the last person that Xander spoke to.Stepping forward I don’t even pay attention to the others in the room. My hand still extends back in order to keep Emily behind me. I still don’t trust them but since my alpha does, I will stand by her. I still cant even fathom what Xander was thinking when he gave up his title. I know he most likely prevented all of us from feeling his death.“There is someone that we need to speak to then
Beep. Beep. Beep. The sounds in the room are so annoying. I wish that someone would just turn it off so that I can go back to sleep. I don’t want to get up. I make myself turn over away from the errant noise as I squeeze my eyes shut tighter. I just need more sleep. I don’t want anything else right now. Quiet and sleep sound so good but that insistent beeping just wont stop. I groan as I smash my face into my pillow. “She seems to be waking up. Maybe when she does, can tell us what to do” I hear as someone whispers. You would think that they would know to whisper quieter if they didn’t want someone to hear them. Women normally gossip much better than this.“She has to know what to do. We still don’t even know what happened. We all felt the transfer. She is now our alpha. With him gone now, she is the only one that we can turn to” This time it’s a mans voice speaking. I cant help but frown because I know that voice. As I think hard about where I know the voice images start to flas
