He took my arm and led me to our room. My anxious and worried mind, running over every possibility until I felt exhausted just from the exercise.The tension in his back made his anger at my 'disobedience' very evident. I was anxious about whatever he was planning and quite confused about why I was allowing him to do it anyway. Maybe, it was the twinge of guilt I was feeling for not obeying. Which was stupid. I was my own person! I didn't have to feel guilty about my decision.Except…"Except you knew the reason I asked you to stay with Nerrian until someone came to get you. We have to make sure you are safe," Tohr answered, staring at me intensely.I could see the shadow of worry in his eyes, and that made the guilt grow until it ate away at my stomach."Yes, that is the reason for the punishment, my little fire. To relieve you of the feelings of guilt and so maybe, just maybe, you'll think twice about disobeying me next time," he explained with a dark look.His words hit me hard and
The dark message prevented me from enjoying the fact that I had managed to successfully translate one of the roars that did not have a translation.There was a response to it, one that sounded something like acceptance. Maybe even agreement."What's happening?" I asked him."Treddian will finish the punishment that bastard has earned. Once done, Treddian will bring him to the dungeon to await the retribution that I have demanded for him daring to touch what is mine," Tohr growled at me, his golden eyes flashing with possession.In the blink of an eye, he was in front of me. He jerked me out of the chair and crushed me against his chest as his lips descended on mine. His kiss was crazed, demanding. His mind swung open once more, and I found desperation to remind me who I belonged to as well as making sure I was okay.I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back, unable to deny his need. Every bit of my being wanted to do whatever I could to calm him, to ease the pain in him.Hi
"But you still wish to punish me," I stated, feeling a bit sullen."Mara, you must understand that disobeying me comes with consequences," he reminded me gently."Yes. But you said the women had to agree to this. They agree to follow the rules and so on. I didn't," I reminded him.His eyes took on a thoughtful look before he nodded in agreement."You are right," he replied. "This is something we need to change immediately. When you agree to be my mate, you will agree to obey me and only me. You will agree to give me your heart, your mind, your soul, and your body. Whenever I please it to be so,""Wait… whenever you please?" I questioned to clarify his meaning.His smile turned positively lascivious and predatorial as he looked my body over. It sent a shiver down my spine, and I could feel my pussy clench then grow wet at the idea of becoming his in such a way. I had never in my life considered myself submissive. Still, the very thought of giving myself over to him in such a manner not
I could hear the firmness in his voice waver a bit as if he too couldn't wait for me to be completely ready to be his, to fuck me the way I needed him to. I reached down and grabbed his wrist to stop him. Tohr's torment of my pussy was making it completely difficult for me to think clearly. However, at his disapproving look, I immediately released his hand. Taking mercy on me, he only pressed his fingers as deep as they would go but didn't move any further. Yet, the new position had his palm grinding against my extremely sensitive clit, tormenting me further when he didn't move."Don't you… have sex without bonding?" I asked.In response, he wiggled his fingers inside me, drawing out a long moan."We do," he admitted and moved his hand again."Oh god. If we're gonna talk, Tohr, you can't do that. I can't think when you do," I whimpered."You are the one who wishes to talk, little fyre. I wish for you to come for your mate. To fall apart in my hands and scream my name," he purred, punct
My eyes grew misty, and my heart warmed. Tohr's golden eyes stared into them, the hope glowing so brightly that I could feel his desire for my total belief in him. I wanted to… needed to. I had never once given thought to well… my future beyond finding Erik. Now that I was faced with an ultimate and unchangeable decision.Yet, somehow, I felt as if I had no choice in this."You always have a choice, Mara. I would never force you to mate. Such a thing is beyond reproach in my eyes," Tohr informed me with an insulted tone."I didn't mean to imply you would. It's just that… if you are my one and only mate and I am yours. Then the choice of who to love and when has been taken out of my hands. It just doesn't seem fair," I explained."Yes, the Gods have chosen for us. But who is to say I wouldn't have chosen you either way? You have shown to be all I desired and more. I am pleased with their choice," he explained.My eyes widened as the words made the impact they were meant to. Tohr squeeze
I sucked his cock deep into my mouth, my cheeks hallowing with the force it took to keep him deep in my mouth. My nails stroked it again as I sucked him hard and fast.I felt his mind go completely blank as my sensual attack threw him over the edge. With a roar, a beautiful roar, he came hard in my mouth. I swallowed every drop feeling a sense of feminine triumphant knowing I had taken his control in such away.I had power over King Tohrah of the Golden Dragons. What woman wouldn't feel on top of the world with such knowledge?He pulled away and rubbed his thumb across my lips, wiping off any excess that might have dripped out."My little fyre, you are being extremely naughty. You have yet again disobeyed me. I was more than willing to put off punishment until after you accepted me completely as your mate," he said softly.The warning under the seductive cadence of his voice sent a shiver of fear, and excitement to be honest, through me."But?" my voice trembled as did my body."I'm be
"No, I'm not dealing with the physical pain. However, this slight pain is nothing compared to the pain and fear I felt when I discovered you were not where you were supposed to be, and you could be hurt or in danger. If I can handle that, you can handle this," he reminded me gruffly.Guilt exploded through me once more, and the fight began to drain from my body. My mind had grown a bit cloudy. I wasn't thinking clearly despite the desperate need to understand the new sensations that I was feeling. It was as if there was a "drop" in my mind, and in this new place, I knew I would do almost anything Tohr wanted just to feel his approval once more. His hand came down on one cheek then the other in rapid succession, and I cried out once more as the tears welled up in my eyes and slowly began to fall."You have disappointed me, little one," he said. "I told you to stop, not because I didn't wish to come in your beautiful mouth. However, I wished to allow you a chance to come with me once mor
"Yes, thank you," I mumbled, feeling my cheeks flush as he continued to rub the flesh causing a whole different feeling to blossom."Umm... I… um…" I stuttered out, not sure what I was going to say anyway.My mind was flipping over and over again, going from one question to the next. Before landing on just one."Yes, my sweet. I know," he whispered, continuing to stroke me.-How can I feel this way after what just happened? - I asked in my head unable to bring myself to vocalize the words.-You are my mate. Your body is responding to my touch as it should. Plus-He gave my backside a light tap that sparked the pain slightly, but not enough to overwhelm me. Instead of hurting me, it turned me on more.-I think you like the pain a little. - He replied with a chuckle.The prudish side of me wanted to deny his claims. However, the very fact that I was growing wetter with each light smack forced me to admit he was right. He massaged my buttocks a bit more before spreading them wide. A finge
He squeezed my hand one more time before letting go. It was a small gesture, however with Treddian, who was raised in this world to not show affection to another man's woman or risk death, it was a huge step. I turned my attention to the last two people who stepped up to me and raised my eyebrows when I saw it was Ethallia and Synne. "What is it you need, my ladies?" Tohr asked them gently. "Your Majesty, we wish to plead our loyalty to the Queen, as well. Without her here, our lives would have been very different, and now we would be honored if she would accept them in return," Synne replied softly. "That is not necessary," I replied to them."Your Highness, with all due respect, you gave us our lives back and the courage to take charge of them. There is nothing we want to do more than to pledge them to you," Ethallia countered. I looked to Tohr for help. But he had stepped back and was allowing me to handle this. I stood and walked up to the ladies and took their hands. "Are yo
"Caylan," I called, getting his attention. Caylan turned and his icy blue eyes pierced through me as they started to turn slightly Draygonish. "Please… be patient… this… this is not our way, and she may end up hating you if you push too much," I pleaded with him. Caylan nodded to me. I wasn't sure if it was an agreement or acknowledgment. Either way, I was forced to stand there and watch as Caylan carried my new friend off to his 'Draygon lair'. "She will be fine, Mara. You know as well as I do, my little fyre, that a Draygon will do whatever it takes to make sure his mate gives him their heart," Tohr reminded me. He wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed the top of my head. "Most of all, she is safe and protected." I nodded and sighed heavily, hoping one day she would forgive me for this. I felt as if I had to feed her to the wolves.Before I could contemplate or worry about anything, else Tohr was pulling me towards the front of the hall where the thrones were and had me s
-Little fyre. I am damned proud of you. You fought him with all the fyre inside your soul. Sólas would still be after us no matter what you had done. He is the one to blame for what we are going through right now. - I gave him a small smile and tried to let his words soothe me. "Thank you for warning me," I told Caylan. "I appreciate all that you have done for us." "You do not have to thank me, Your highness. It was the least I could do after everything you both did for my people. I, however, did wish to thank you for bringing our princess back." My eyes widened. "Gabby?" As if my words summoned her, Gabby walked in like the princess she was descended from. She looked around the room. As soon as she spotted us, she made a beeline for the group, and the look on her face was one of anger. "Ohhh hell," I whispered in English. "You!" she snapped at me. "You have been back for how long? And you have not stopped to say hi?" "Gabby, I'm so sorry! I just… Ummm," I floundered for a reas
I turned and grabbed her shoulders. "Even if you weren't mated to my brother and my favorite guard, you would still belong here." The tears Ethallia was holding back burst open and poured down her cheeks. I hugged her again until the sniffing stopped, and I could tell she was feeling better. I caught bits and pieces of her thoughts, and they were just as sweet as her words. I gave her one last strong hug struggling to control my own tears.-You okay, mate? - Tohr asked concerned. -Yes, mate. I am just so happy right now. - I replied, coating my words with the love I felt for him and these people. He sent back his love letting it wash over me. -I'm so glad, my little fyre. Now hurry so I can have you in my arms again. -I laughed slightly and pulled away from Ethallia. "Alright. My own mate seems to be whining cause I'm not close. Can you help me finish this up?" I asked her, pushing at my quickly drying hair. She nodded and pushed me towards the chair. Under her quick and daft fing
I giggled breathlessly yet didn't deny either of his claims. He set me down on my feet, being sure to hold onto me until I was able to stand on my weak knees. With my head cleared of him, I realized that we were still in one of the main hallways to the castle. Anyone could have walked in and seen what we were doing. Tohr chuckled. "I'm pretty sure the whole world heard you coming, mate." His wink on the innuendo, then again knowing him it wasn't an innuendo at all, caused my cheeks to flush, and I smacked his arm. He laughed and pressed a kiss to my nose before pulling me down the hall to our room.When he opened the door, I saw Ethallia and Synne standing there waiting for me. The adjoining door to the bathroom area was open, and I could smell the scented oils they used for the bath. A wide smile crossed my face, and I practically raced to the bathroom. I slammed the door shut on their surprised faces before I jerked the veils off and practically jumped in. The water was a little t
-Green, huh? - I thought with a smile. -So apparently, my mate is a descendant of the Narhas'fa, huh? - I gave him a goofy Draygana grin. -I guess I am. Do you think you can live with that? - He smoothed his hand down my scales sending shivers down my spine. "Yes, my mate. Even if you had never been a Draygon at all I would still love you the same," he admitted before backing away and changing. As his own Draygon was released, he braced his front feet and let out a loud yell calling to his mate. Me. I braced my feet and returned the call. To anyone else, it would have sounded horrifying or scary. However, to us, it was a beautiful ballad. With one hard flap of his wings, he was off into the sky and began to circle the area waiting for me. I watched him for a moment admiring the grace with which he soared through the sky. For such a big creature, Tohr was agile and swift that I loved watching him fly. The need to join him overpowered me until I was shoving off the ground and s
I only looked back up when I knew they were fully changed. Treddian was an enormous Golden Draygon. Beautiful and vibrant, his head sprouted two horns that bent slightly backward but ended with two extremely sharp-looking tips. His back was relatively free of spikes until the very tip of his tail held one deadly-looking spike. I couldn't remember seeing anything like that on Tohr and made a mental note to ask about it. -Treddian's has some Silver Draygon in him. - Tohr explained. -They sport those tiny spikes on their tails and a little mustache that comes out the sides of their nostrils. It is a rare thing nowadays to see a silver Draygon. They were obsessed about only mating with their own kind. As such, they have almost driven themselves to the brink of extinction. - Tohr explained. -I thought you guys only mated with the ones you bond with. But according to Sólas and now these silver Draygons, it seems not necessary. - I asked, suddenly remembering Sólas's words about how that wa
Quiet voices woke me slowly. They sounded close but not close enough for me to make out what they were talking about. However, even those quiet voices were not the reason I had woken up. No, my Draygana insisted that I investigate why voices were disturbing our sanctuary and why our mate was not beside us. I groaned in agitation and tried to quiet her down. -Be still, my mate. It is your brother and his mates who come to check on us and give us an update. - Tohr's voice ran through me like fingers stroking down my spine in comfort. I smiled softly and allowed him to soothe both my Draygana and me. She purred and preened, then dropped away calm now that she knew he was okay. I couldn't help rolling my eyes at her internally, then stretched, allowing myself to wake up a bit more. Realizing I was still naked, I flushed hard and looked around for something to cover myself with. I heard footsteps heading my way, and the search became a bit more frantic, not knowing who it was who would
I heard his growl once more pulled from the depths of him. His Draygon reared his head and pushing Tohr to give in to his mate. "Then you will have me, little fyre," he growled out loud, his voice sending shivers down my spine. He rose above me and locked his eyes with mine. I spread my legs wide, feeling his hard cock pressing just slightly against my dripping wet channel. I winced a little as he began to push in. I was by no means a virgin. However, I was not well experienced either. However, neither one of those men had been anywhere near as big as Tohr. Not to mention they had been a while ago. Despite how turned on I was, it was like he was my first again, and my body was struggling to allow him in. "Relax, sweeting. Your body will let me in. You are made for me," he whispered into my ear. His hands slide down my body finding my nipples and began to play with them once more. The discomfort began to slowly be replaced by pleasure as his fingers pulled and twisted at my nipples.
