All her life, Catori Murdock was told what to do. How to act, how to speak and who to marry. But she never listens to the words of her mother, knowing that she is just backwards and stuck in the olden days. Where she thinks all a female is good for is to get married and take care of her family. Catori knew she had her own destiny, she just didn't know what it was yet. That was until she decides to become a nun and learnt some daunting information about the small one horse, snowy town she lives in. Dragons are real, she is one of them and her mate lives in the very mountains the chef tells everyone to stay away from. Will Catori be able to be with her mate? Or will she be forced to watch his execution?
View More"Wait, that bitch was one of them? No wonder why I hated her so much," Fang said after Alice was done explaining."Yes." Alice nodded."And you, where the hell do you get off calling my sister your mate?" Rydstorm glared at Fang.Alice moved before Fang. "Brother, let me explain. Nita was the one to cast the spell on Fang. Remember, it happened the day she arrived? They both recognised each other as mates, but he hated her and that was when the "secret" of the spell was conveniently revealed to us. At that time I was too young for him to recognise me, and vice versa, but now that she is dead, the spell is broken."Rydstorm glares at Fang, who didn't seem fazed by him one bit."But you are a man whore." Winona was the one to speak up now."Yes, that was the past. I have my mate, and I..." Fang trailed off because Alice cupped his face."You don't have to say it," she told him.Fang shook his head. "You are my mate, and just as I have been protecting you all these years, I will still pr
"Catori, your father--"She pushed Rydstorm away when he tried to comfort her. "My father is dead. Just leave me alone."Fang let out a laugh. "Trust me when I say that the old man isn't dead. It takes a lot to kill such an ancient dragon. Obviously, the youngling didn't know that."Catori was about to tell him off until she heard her father coughing, then saw that the hole in his chest was closing fast. There was a gasp from him before he sat up with a laugh."Dad?"Lucian gazed at her with almost vacant eyes. "My child, my sweet, sweet child. Sorry if I had you worried." He got to his feet and stretched. "That was a workout, I have been out of shape for so long." He groaned.Catori hugged him without saying a word."Aww, my youngling, no need to cry. I'm not going anywhere for a long time." He then turned his eyes to Rydstorm. "You did a good job, boy."At his words, Rydstorm got down on one knee and bowed his head to show his respect for Nightwing. His fellow dragons did the same.
"Amica Mea, I know you haven't been a dragon for too long and all this is new to you. But with you already here, it will be best if you transform and help us fight." Rydstorm took her hand.Catori nodded."Just stay close to me," he told her.With another roar, Akara allies began to transform. Causing more people to scream and run around, seeking a place to hide.Catori silently called upon her dragon. She felt as if she was floating and not before long; she was a twenty-foot tall dragon that had to be careful to not trample the humans that were running about.Something slammed into her, but with her body being so large, the force didn't knock her over.She turned around to see a blue dragon growling at her."I have waited a long time for this," it said in her mind."Calian." Catori growled.He rammed into her, and this time the two of them tumbled over. They rolled around on the ground, with Calian getting the upper hand. He purposefully flicked his tail so that it hit a human who wa
The two girls glanced at Leona, not wanting her around to hear anything they had to say."What?""Can you give us some privacy? Because nothing in our conversation as has anything to do with you," Catori told her.She frowned. "You little bitch, just because you went away with that mountain man, you think you are all that? But you are not. You are still that ugly girl that no man likes." Was Leona the wisest retorted."I have no time for you. All you do is try to compete with me, but it is useless.""Compete? There is no competition here, you are-""Can you just shut up and go!" Halona yelled. "Neither of us wants you around. We don't like you."Leona's mouth fell open at those words. "You both will be sorry, and just know that when those mountain men are all dead, you won't have a place to run to, Catori."Leona walked away at that, but for some reason she stopped, span around and tried to slap Catori. But she caught her hand easily with a smile."You were always jealous of me." Leon
Catori walked beside Rydstorm as he hurried from their room and through the castle."What do you think is going on?" She asked."I don't know, but whatever the reason, I'm sure a Stone is behind it.""Of course. I remember something, even though it seemed so long ago. Akara Stone had said that there were dangerous people that lived in these mountains that were preventing Desolation from growing. He wanted them out because he had said the land belongs to his ancestors and he wanted to turn it into a ski resort."Rydstorm let out a laugh because he wasn't expecting the outcome."Belong to his ancestors, huh? That man truly is something else.""No, it just goes to show how backwards those people are. They think they are high and mighty, while they say things like this to dumb down the population. Like that woman who pretended to be my mother all this time. It is like a disease and now I see why most of them didn't like me, it was because I refused to placed on a certain level. I would al
Catori looked didn't know if anything had happened, because she didn't feel any different. So when she opened her eyes, she was shocked to see that Rydstorm and the others were so small all of a sudden. She also noticed that she was seeing them through somewhat of a red haze.''Am I a dragon?'' She asked, but her words came out in a roar, which accidentally shot fire from her mouth.''Wow,'' she heard Alice's voice saying, sounding loud as if she was right at her ear.Catroi glanced at one of the reflective walls to see that her body was large with red scales with clawed feet, and huge purple and green wings growing from her back.''Good, now that you have done that. Let's see if you can transform back into your human form,'' Rydstorm said up to her.''Now how do I do that?'' She questioned herself.''Just picture yourself as human again,'' her dragon counterpart told her.When Catori did as she was told, she felt another rush of wind. Watching as things went back to normal.''That wa
Not long after, Fang informed Rydstorm that they had evaded the threat.''Catori, can you please stay here?'' "No.'' She shook her head. "I want to come with you. I want to be a part of the meetings.''''I don't want you to get hurt,'' Rydstorm told her.''I won't be. You are there to protect me. So are Fang and everyone else.''With a heavy heart, he nod then lead his bride to the war room where many were gathered in anticipation. They all raised to their feet and bow, then waited for Rydstorm to take his seat before they sat again.Catori stood to his left with her hand behind her back, feeling awkward and looking all over the room.After realising that his mate didn't have a seat, he got up and offered his to her.''Please, have my seat.''Catori smiled at Rydstorm but shook her head, ''I'll be alright, you are their king.''''And you are their queen. Besides, what kind of king or man would I be to have my mate standing?''When she was about to counter again, Rydstorm lift her up
Fang looked taken aback when he entered the room shortly after"What's going on here?" Rydstorm asked.Catori pushed the tied up nymph who fell to the floor."I was interrogating her. I have suspicions that she might be working with Lilith."Fang fell upon Raven instantly, grabbing her by the neck.He snapped his teeth in her face. " You dare to bring harm to my king and queen.''The nymph struggled in his grasp.Rydstorm turn to his mate. "What raised your suspicion?''"I don't know. I just had a feeling one of them might know. When I spoke with the group, she was the only one to act suspicious.''Rydstorm pulled Catori closer to him.''Please don't do anything like that again. You could have been hurt.''''But I'm not, and I was right.'' She tried to pull away from him. Rydstorm sighed. "Leave her to Fang. He will get the information we need out of her.''Catori frowned up at him, knowing he was hiding something, but his face gave nothing away.Before she could say anything, Raven
Catori stir in her sleep from loud shouts and a booming sound. She shifted to her side, then the shouts came again.They caused Rydstorm to jump to his feet and rushed out of the room, which in turn woke her up.Not long after, Rydstorm came back from wherever he was, then pulled Catori to her feet."I need to get you somewhere safe." His voice held urgency, as he stop pulling her to lift her into his arms."What's happening?"But he didn't have to answer. The surrounding chaos was enough, they were under attack."Is it Lilith?" She now asked."No, wyverns. They followed a soldier here when he came back from returning with his mate.""What?" Catori’s eyes widen.Rydstorm didn't answer, as his only priority now was to get her to safety."Alice, take her to the safe room." Rydstorm said, putting her on her feet."But-"Rydstorm cut her off with a kiss."Amica mea, please. I want you to be safe. It would kill me if anything was to happen to you."Alice's eyes widen as she saw a gust of w
I must make myself available to live. Once upon a time...... No, our story won’t start like that. Desolation, Middleton. A small village west of the Moon, and east of the Sun, the southernmost village in the Country of Charming. Population, 175. Ironic isn’t it? Desolation in Charming. Or more like Charming with a little Desolation, either way, this one mule village wasn’t like other small villages you saw in the movies. Unless it was a black and white silent film where all the people wore nothing but fur, the pavements were chunks of concrete and they lived too far from the Capital. Without the luxury of a Starbucks, or even a real supermarket. Only exchanging fish and grains when the weather wasn’t a torturing cold force that froze over even the sun. The high school and pre-school were one and the same, with an old chalkboard and elders that couldn’t even remember their own last names as teachers. Only a few we...
