HenryI woke up with a start and sat up immediately, gasping for air. “We have to get back there, get back to her,” I told my wolf. “For you to reject her?” Knight barked in my mind, he was very riled up and seemed like he wanted to pounce at me, if only that was possible. He didn’t want to do it, not now that we saw her, touched her, kissed her. I clenched my eyes shut, she made it very hard for me to reject her; her lips were so soft and she tasted so good. I rubbed the back of my neck and started pacing back and forth around the large bedroom, like a restless animal, a caged wolf. “Knight, I don’t know what to do!” It was hard for me to hesitate so much, it was something that went against my nature. Alphas didn’t hesitate, they either attacked, waited for the prey or retracted, although we mostly attacked. I continued with my pacing, hoping to get somewhere. My body, my soul, all of me was completely drawn to that woman, to that dragon-woman. “F*ck, Knight! I can’t do it and
Henry“What are you doing?” Kemy asked me, her green eyes wide open and her hands on my chest as she tried to regain her balance. “I am dreaming, dreaming with you,” I brushed a lock of chocolate-colored hair off her face and flashed her my best smile, which had never failed me before. My hand roamed from her ribs to her waist and I brought her close gently. Knight released a howl of victory in my head, he was hyper to have her that close, in my arms. I was more than happy too. How could I have ever considered rejecting her? She might be a dragon, but she was mine and she would always remain that way. “Slow down, dude!” she exclaimed, sitting up abruptly and narrowing her eyes at me. A grin formed on my lips; she was indeed full of surprises, I never thought that my blushing mate could be so assertive.“She has to have an alpha attitude to be our match, Henry. And it’s so sexy!” Knight added. He was right, she was f*cking sexy. “Let’s enjoy it, it’s just a dream even though it fee
KemyMy hope was doomed. My sister wasn’t around and I probably was the only Golden Dragon alive, I didn’t have a home to return to. Tears of mourning and desperation burned in my eyes. I hurt for my past, the past of my kind and for my future. A soft sigh left me, Ember’s attempt to contact the red-head lady was in vain. I tried to calm down and stop crying, I had to be strong for Ember and for myself. For so long it had been only the two of us, and I knew we could do it; we could be enough. Ember whined, and I knew well what she meant: we could be the last Golden Dragon and had lost our family and our people, but we have him, Henry. And of course, Knight too, our knight in the shining fur. Maybe he couldn’t save me, or maybe he is already saving me for all I wanted was to stay in his arms.I sighed and snuggled further into his embrace, being close to him gives me some peace and some comfort in the middle of my pain and dread. It made me not want to give up reality and sink dee
Mallory“A piece of her—more precisely, of her dragon—was cut out. That’s why she can’t wake up, her dragon’s soul was mutilated. She is very weak and doesn’t have the strength to wake up,” Jen explained. I covered my face with both hands, wiping my tears and trying to settle my breath. We didn’t have time for me to have a panic attack now, we had to help my Little Sister. “I talked to Ember, her dragon, and I could see she is growing weaker by the day. If she dies, Kemy goes with her. They are closely connected, their souls are intertwined. Healing Ember as soon as possible is the only way we can bring them both back from this long sleep.” “Ember will need the piece of her soul back, or at least part of it. Otherwise, she won’t be able to wake up,” Jen sighed deeply. Her words were making my heart race in the somber rhythm of dread and desperation. It was all a huge nightmare. Alma placed her hand on her chin and looked at Kemy for a moment, “We need to find a way to make her
AlmaEgan and I left Kemy’s room and went to ours. He ran his hand through his hair anxiously. I sighed, it was hard to see a way through. But I trusted the Great Golden Fire and I knew that if it decided to not help Kemy, it was because it wasn’t supposed to be like this. There was a better way, a way in which she could be more than whole and wake up to a better reality; and something told me that this other way had everything to do with her mate. Egan turned to look at me and placed two gentle hands on my shoulders, “I know what you are thinking about, Little Ruby. But if we let him come close to her, he can use this proximity to harm our clan. We harbour powerful magic and powerful magical instruments in this house— itens the Alpha-to-be of a power-hunger pack could be greedy for. His father didn’t seem to hesitate to kill, torture and destroy to gain and maintain power, so what would his son do to obtain such powerful magic?” I looked into space as many thoughts swirled in my h
Kemy I threw myself in his arms, feeling his warmth, breathing his scent in. “I missed you, beautiful mate,” he muttered against my lips before covering them with his once again. His tongue swirled into my mouth, in a heated and passionate kiss that matched the look in his eyes.I sank into our kiss and his tongue’s rough caresses. Henry’s fingers ran through my hair as his other hand slid from my waist to my hip. His fingers dug into my skin, his touch was something between sweet and possessive.After getting lost in our kisses for a while, Henry looked into my eyes and started talking. “I have to talk to you now before I’m not able to stop kissing you anymore and I end up waking up without telling you what I found out.”I only nodded, half-absent as I was melting in his arms. “There is a way for me to invade the house and rescue your body. I will do it tomorrow, you will be my arms in both our dreams and reality,” he assured me. “Please be careful. These dragons are dangerous
Mallory I woke up with a convulsive movement as I heard a weird noise. I was still sleeping every night in Kemy’s room, it brought me peace. This time I would make sure she was safe.My hands rubbed the sleep off my eyes and I looked around trying to find the source of the noise. I jumped out of themakeshift bed as soon as I saw the werewolf in front of me, this time he was naked, which only made my panic increase. I was almost hyperventilating as cold sweat dripped down my forehead. I couldn’t remain still as he approached my sister, his thing hanging dangerously. I gulped hard and breathed deeply, my dragon Alessia was humming soothingly to calm me down and give me strength. I felt my body starting to grow hot, burning.“Don’t you dare to get close to her!” I yelled, fury and fear interlaced in my voice. “Stay back! Now, I only want my mate!” he almost growled, baring his canines at me, his eyes glowing a threat. A shiver roamed down my spine and I had to make a huge effort to
HenryI shielded my mate from the fire with my body. Of course, they wouldn’t hesitate to hurt or even kill her, they were monsters. The only odd thing was that they didn’t do it before. Did they want to use her in any of their sick experiments? This thought alone made a growl of wrath thunder up my throat. “Stop this now! You are all insane!” The witch screamed and I glanced at her, noticing that she waved her hand, making the dragon’s fire retreat towards her fingertips in slow motion. “Stop attacking each other, don’t you idiots see that the only way to solve this insane misunderstanding is by talking to each other like civilized people?” the pinch of a witch said firmly, trying to step forward and be in front of her Dragon Alpha, but he wouldn’t have it; he kept her behind his body protectively. Knight growled in my mind, not so happy to be down-talked, but I kept him at bay. What if Kemy’s sister was indeed alive and in that bedroom? “He is a werewolf, he can’t be civilized!”

HenryAfter Mallory left to go to sleep, I laid on our bed and took my Kemy in my arms.“How are you, Sweetness?” I caressed her face, brushing a stray lock of her light brown hair behind her ear.A sigh left her juicy lips, but it was soon replaced by a small smile, “I am fine. It might sound crazy, but I am less afraid now. What happened today showed me that I can manage to stand on my feet and face the challenges that might come my way, even when at first I fail or hesitate. Besides, knowing that the doctor isn’t around anymore, makes me feel safer.”“The others told me that the rest of the Red Dragons don’t know that the doctor and his gang came here. You are safe now.” My arms tightened around her as I pulled her into my chest.“We will always protect her. Her and Ember,” Knight roared in my mind and I couldn’t agree more.Our mate was safe now, in her Dragon and human form. I wished all the danger and challenges were finally over, but I knew our battles were only beginning, and
KemyAs soon as we learned about the chip implanted in the nape of my neck, Marion gave me a pain-killer concoction made by Niki and removed the chip from my skin using a sterilized knife. Henry held my hand through the small procedure, even though it didn’t hurt as much as I expected, having my mate by my side made it much easier. Marion didn’t waste time and melted the microchip using her fire.After a couple of hours, Mal came to my bedroom. The corner of her lips were twisted down and her face was contorted with something deeper than sadness as she sat on my bed by my side.I had so much to tell her, that I didn’t know where to start from and I could feel she also had something to say. Henry
DanielI stayed with Mallory for a couple of hours, and when I had to go interrogate the Red Dragon I hesitantly left her with Kemy and Marion. My dragon grumbled in my mind, releasing a grumpy roar, he didn’t want to leave her, neither did I. But I needed answers and I needed that bloody doctor dead soon.My legs marched to the dungeon, and the pathetic coward flinched as soon as he saw me. He could surely see his approaching death in my eyes.My fist was already in flames before I even reached him. Without losing any time, I punched him in the face over and over again.“Tell me their bloody names. Tell me the names
MalloryA memory flashed before my panicked eyes as I stood still in front of the closed door.“It didn’t work this time, Lord Darion,” one of the Doctors said with an exhale.“We will try again in a few weeks. You should increase the dose of drugs and hormone injections. Find a way to make this woman able to conceive my children!” he yelled at the doctor, cold rage radiating from him and making my stomach clench.He was a monster and there was nothing I loathed more than having him inside me.
DanielI held Mallory’s hand as we walked down to the basement where Egan had a small dungeon built with only a few cells. When one has as many enemies as our clan has, this kind of place comes in handy.One of the Red Dragons was chained to the wall, surrounded by Egan, Alev and Adrian. My gaze moved to my mate, but she seemed surprisingly unfazed by the scene unfolding before her eyes.“He was the doctor responsible for experimenting on Kemy. We still have many questions to ask him, before he becomes ashes. So far he had only told us that no one else knows where we are.They came here without telling anything to their Lord.” Egan said firmly and calmly, looking between us and the chained prisoner.Mallory’s heart q
