SenoraIt was past lunch time when Colton and I decided to go back home. Imagine our surprise when we found out that most of the other lead warriors were sent to the werewolf pack, and in their place was an attractive female dragon that happened to be the mate to the deity of the fire dragons .... as well as Beckett.Fafnir joined Levi back at his place to meet Sol and Celeste while Fiona, Joseline, Beckett, Colton, and myself were sitting in the living room discussing the morning's events when there was a knock on the front door."I've had it with unexpected guests!" Fiona went to stand up, but I held up a hand to stop her."Relax, I'll get it!" I opened the front door to see Aisling standing there with an irritated look on her face and her hands on her hips.She squinted her eyes, looking past me and searching for Fiona. "You've had vehicles coming and going and yet you never once thought of inviting me over?""It's not like that, Aisling ....." Fiona called out from the couch."Wel
LeviThe morning that has brought us all together has finally graced us with her presence, as daylight slowly crept in through the curtains.Fiona rolled over and placed her head on my shoulder as she laid a hand on my chest, delicately tracking imaginary lines.Despite the day that awaited us, it was a much better start than what yesterday morning was. Aisling succeeded in getting Fiona pretty well lit the other night. So much so that Fiona didn't even realize that I got into the bed next to her after making sure that Sol, Celeste, and Fafnir were settled at my place.It took a few aspirin, a lot of water, and a light breakfast before Fiona was even able to function without looking like she was going to go on a killing spree. I tried telling her that an orgasm would help get rid of her headache, but she chose to ignore me. Luckily, we all managed to get a good game plan going, but you know what they say .... life happens when you're busy making plans.My heart was racing as I took the
Fiona Sol had an open link going between himself, Celeste, Seth, and Rhi during the entire council meeting. It was an extremely helpful way to keep us all informed of everything as it happened, and shortly after we were given the ok to send Fafnir in, is when all hell broke loose. I figured things wouldn't go over well, which is why we decided Joseline should stay home with Beckett. She was just a dragon compared to the rest of us in that room. Even Roxie being mated with Cerulean, thus a fairy princess, wouldn't be bothered if the elders knew what was good for them. I never anticipated running into the room and actually seeing the body of a female dragon turn into red ashes before dissipating into the air, as my mate hurried towards the broken window, stopping my heart, but thankfully not my brain nor mouth. "Don't you dare, Levi!" Levi pointed angrily to where the dragon's body used to be. "Did you not see what just happened?! I can't let him escape!" "Don't you fucking argue wi
FionaLevi and I had just gotten out of the shower and we're getting ready for bed. The TV was on for background noise, and when the news came on I couldn't help but stop and watch."Fiona, you need to turn the TV off."I continued to stand there, watching the news in my robe. "Do you see what they're showing? So many people had it recorded!"Levi walked up next to me, placing a hand on my lower back. "Yeah, and the police believe that someone snuck into my building and fried my system all for a stunt to get attention. Remember when you told me that people freaked out thinking that the floating candles you guys released for Nixie were UFOs? This will pass."I closed my eyes as I shook my head. "This isn't over, Levi. This is just the beginning. The door has simply been opened. I can feel it.""Maybe so, but for right now we have more important things to deal with. If Glaurung stops moving long enough, Fafnir should be able to pick up on his location through their connection since Rhi
FionaThe Andes, Copahue volcano to be specific. Of course, we would have to travel a ridiculous distance away from home and that puke would go to his own hemisphere. We all knew Glaurung would, it was just a matter of him tiring himself out enough to make a mistake and alert Fafnir of his general location. Despite the reason we were here, and the fact that we were bouncing around in one of the Avtoros Shaman 8x8s that Fafnir insisted on buying, I still appreciated nature's beauty as I looked out the window. It was raining, after all. What more could I ask for?In true fashion, I pissed off those who I instructed to stay behind when I told them that they had to watch over things in my absence, which went over as well as accidentally using super glue instead of lube on your privates.I can understand their frustration. Honestly, I can. Whereas I told them it wasn't their fight, it's really not my fight either, and yet here I am. I couldn't risk my fairies' lives for this, and I really p
Beckett"Trust me," Joseline said.Two simple words. For years, the fairies didn't trust the dragons. To be honest, we never really even had much to do with them. Whenever there was a ceremony held, everyone was invited out of courtesy, nothing more.But now the twist of fate has ripped the door of change off of its hinges, allowing things to happen that were never allowed to happen before. Changes that should have been allowed to take place so long ago, but couldn't thanks to a few of the close-minded, power-hungry, and arrogant elders in power. That, mixed with the fear that many had to stand up to do what's right.This is what happens when we allow others to have the power to be in control for so long. When one tries to force others to think, feel, and believe what they do, they no longer care about anyone other than themselves. Mix it in with a fear of what they don't understand and anger about what they don't agree with, and it creates hatred that shouldn't be. A hate that those i
FionaThe events that took place were all just a little too surreal. I was still having a hard time believing that the six dragon elders simply washed their hands of their long-standing duties, leaving the deities in complete charge of their hemispheres. But I suppose when you've gone so long living a lie about things that you stopped believing in, and losing children because of those things, you stop caring. Funny how the fear to stand up for what's right leaves one's mind once others are willing to do the same.The elder dragons all made their way back to their homes to take care of business, while the rest of us did the same. Once we were just a few hours from home, we decided to rent an SUV big enough to seat the seven of us comfortably and drive the rest of the way back. It was simply easier than trying to fly into the city as exhausted as we were.I was honestly enjoying the ride as I leaned onto Levi and he wrapped his arm around me. Everything finally felt .... right.Rhi's voi
Senora The burning lava substance made it's way towards Aisling, as screams from the crowd filled the air around us, a combination of shock, fear, and anger as to what they were seeing of their elders.Rieka immediately stepped between Aisling and the burning material, stopping it with her powers."A little help would be nice!" Rieka yelled as she pushed her feet into the dirt to brace herself.You know how they say everything was in slow motion? Well, it wasn't. I didn't even have a chance to react as I watched from the porch, a mixture of emotions coursing through my body. I was completely clueless about how to react, and if it wasn't for Rieka ...."Colton, what the fuck are we supposed to do?! They're our elders!"Colton turned and looked at me with an equally confused and shocked expression. "You're asking me?! The fuck if I know!"Cerulean shook his head. "Rhi is the only one of us that can actually stop them without fighting them .....""We fu.cking SHOULD be fucking fighting t
FionaI felt like a child in a classroom as we all looked at the two gray-haired women standing before us. Their combined aura was more intimidating than I cared to admit. I got the impression that Anne was much older than Aisling, despite looking like she was the younger of the two."I'll make this as short as possible, as I have somewhere else I'm needed that's honestly a lot more important than being here, explaining things to you .....""Short, but obviously not sweet," Dhara quipped from Matthew's lap with a smirk as Sharia and Maya giggled.My eyes widened as they went from Anne, to Dhara, and back to Anne again."Just like your mother, aren't you?" Anne asked as she glared at Dhara.Aisling rolled her eyes, clicking her tongue in irritation. "You all just need to shut up for once and listen to Anne. She knows more than all of you put together. It wouldn't exactly hurt you to have a mentor of her standards."Anne smiled as Dhara's face fell. "Aisling and I have known each other f
FionaThe air was eerily quiet around us as the sun set in the background, making the sky look like it was angry, or possibly embarrassed. I honestly couldn't tell which.It was as if nature itself knew the severity of what I had just done, and was shocked into silence. Not a tweet from a bird, a bark from a squirrel, nor a rustle of leaves from the wind, as there wasn't even a slight breeze. I couldn't even hear the water splash from Seneca Lake. It was like everything stopped to contemplate the meaning of life. After I swallowed the scratchy lump that had formed in my throat, I opened my mouth to speak, my voice hoarse thanks to the fire that had escaped it. "Why don't you all go home and try to relax for the night. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for showing up and supporting me. The others and I have a lot to discuss and try to figure out."As if the Earth's silence became their own, the group of water fairies that stood behind me quietly dispersed.I turned around and
