The next morning was a refreshing one. The February winter winds were giving way to some nice March sun every now and then. Iris woke up around noon, to Lily bringing a hot breakfast with a warm smile and a promise to run a bath for her to be ready for the day. Iris returned the smile and got ready to dig in for breakfast after Lily headed out for her daily chores. That is when a disoriented Clara entered the room with an equally miserable-looking Sussane in tow. Liliana sauntered casually soon after. Iris looked up surprised, "What happened?" The spoon in her hand dropped into the bowl as Sussane asked, "When was the last time you talked to the Alpha King?" "Suz! What happened to Dom?" Iris' eyes went wide in terror as she quickly tried to mind-link her husband and the father of her unborn child. Lily just stood behind waiting for confirmation of the promise made last night as Iris panicked, "Why isn't he responding? Why is his mind-link off?" She tried to connect to Freddie in

Mage Master was the first to speak after seeing the old human maid in agony. In an astonished tone, he declared, "Stay away from her. She has been poisoned." The young maid cried from beside her mother, "Who would poison a maid and why?" Iris asked the Mage Master, "Master Aakis, Are you sure?" The elderly mage nodded, "These are the effects of my own poison. It is how its low quantity would react in a human body. The magical poison is spelled to kill slowly and painfully. I created this on Alpha Elijah's orders during the Great War. I haven't used it in a very long time. I had almost forgotten it was in store." Iris took deep breaths trying to calm herself down and think rationally. Lily, on the other hand, had slipped unnoticed out of the room. It was clear what had happened and she was terrified of the results of her actions. Today everything was going the wrong way, none of the plans had worked. She had no idea how her family would react if the truth came out. Iris asked, "How

"I sent you a couple of gifts. I believe they brightened up your afternoon, didn't they? I hope you liked them, dearest sister!" Dom stomped over to the screen, making Y's attention divert from Iris to him. He gave an elated look, "Ah! The Alpha King, is it?" He mocked, "Come to bless me with your gracious presence, your highness!" "You will pay for every life you have taken, You bastard!" Dom was beyond furious and he had no way to convey it through that screen. "Come out and speak like a man, you coward. Saying big words while hiding behind a screen. Ordering others to do your dirty work-" "Oh, I do my dirty work plenty, Dominic." He sighed dramatically before continuing, "And, don't worry, you'll see me soon enough. After all, I have a traitor to punish in your lines. She failed to deliver a very important task I was dumb enough to assign her. Now, I'll be coming after her. Where-" He impatiently looked around them as much as the camera could allow, "Where is she? Are you standi

"If you were sorry, you wouldn't be trying to escape after attempting to kill my child!" Spoke a cold grave voice from behind the hugging figures of Elijah and Lily. They were surrounded in seconds. Dom felt like he was hallucinating his sister's betrayal but he looked like he was ready to take a couple hundred lives with his bare hands. Iris was right beside him and looked just sad at the unfortunate turn of events. She was ready to control Dom in case things went out of hand. In her mind, Lily deserved to explain herself. Even though it won't excuse what she did, it would help to put things into perspective and Dom also needed time to calm down, or else he might end up doing something he would regret for the rest of his nearly immortal life. "Please tell me you were not in this with her, Father," Dom spoke gravely, barely in control. Elijah raised a brow, "Are you really going to ask your father, the predecessor Alpha, if I had a hand in the killing of innocents of my own race, p

"Speak!" The confession wouldn't ease her punishment, which probably was death, but if it helped closure, Iris was willing, and so was Elijah. Lily was trying her hardest to control her sobs enough to get a few words out in a sentence. But the guilt coupled with the looks she was receiving, especially from her brother, was making her unable to talk about all the horrible things she had done. She started with the same apology, "I am so sorry." She sniffed, "I know it means nothing to you but, I truly am sorry. Fonsi-" "Don't you dare call me that!" Dom thundered, "I am nothing more than Alpha King to you." His eyes were cold, his words were colder. Liliana sobbed even harder, "Brother, please. I know you love me, and I am so sorry I am not the sister you deserved-" "Enough with the apologies! You wanted to confess, so confess!" Dom hated to act like this towards his sister whom he had cared for like a delicate flower, but every time he looked at her, her guilty tears reminded him

It was a fine morning. Waai knew there was something in the air. He was feeling a bit weak as he limped his way through the tunnels of his sanctuary. When he reached his destination at the fork in the tunnels, he pulled the fire lantern burning in the middle to reveal a hidden third passage into a dark tunnel, infested with photophobic weeds and webs. The old witch worked in the corner surrounded by strange odors and materials. The cave walls had drapes all around, swallowing the place in a strange atmosphere. She didn't acknowledge him as Waai entered her workspace but coughed rather loudly when he tried to curiously pick a random skull from one of the dirty shelves. After a minute she turned to face him as he smiled sheepishly at her, "Just came to get my glittery potion, you know it's that time of the month, Mage Ved'ma." The old witch rolled her eyes and without a word entered an adjacent tunnel that led to multiple cavelets filled with so many weird things, animals, plants, and

Dom led the rescue party into what they were all informed to be Y's hideout for over a year. Through Nora, they had learned about the old Mage who worked for Waai, who was the lead witch of the Capricorn Coven that was once banished from witches' magical society, ages before the first war. Mage Master was the only sorcerer alive today who was present at the time of banishment, a young boy then, a formidable witch now. Once he knew what they were up against, he decided not to let Dom go in alone like on the island. Magical help was needed to fight this crazy coven of witches which had managed to survive all these centuries alone. Thus, armed with ancient magic, accompanied by friends, family, and allies, Dominic McBlaze attacked the place where he was told to be the exit from where Y's deserters had run away. It was a trap for sure, but they had come prepared and had no idea how much time the hostages had. But they hadn't come to leave empty-handed or to get caught themselves. Once t

[Warning: This chapter consists of gore and details of the live murder of innocents. Reader discretion is advised.] Waai was shocked at the sight of the people he thought he had left to guard the hostages and probably be gifted with some new ones on his return. So, he roared, "What the hell happened?" One of the younger witches, Lydia, answered, "The dragons came for their hostages." Y's eyes flared, "So what? We were prepared!" He looked accusingly at Mage Ved'ma who had been clutching her right side where Master Aikis' last offensive spell had grazed her. She hated the way Waai looked at them and spat at him, "You think you were the only one prepared? That they were idiots who wouldn't know they were walking into traps?" Before he could retort, she sinisterly dropped the bomb, "The crowned king destroyed my lab. Your potion with every ingredient is gone. There aren't going to be any more dosages of your glittery potion!" That made Y shoot out of his seat and march toward the in

Marie had wanted to be the first one to see the Sun on the first day of the year. She had convinced her parents to fly her to the East coast of Japan to stand on the highest point and catch the first rays of the first Sun of the year. They had reached there a day earlier, and Marie was determined to stay awake the whole night, countdown to midnight, and then watch the sunrise before sleeping. Iris was sure she wouldn't make it past ten, but she still promised her daughter not to force her bedtime and in case she does fall asleep, to wake her up before midnight and sunrise. * Dom walked from behind Iris, who was leaning slightly on the balcony railing deep in thought, the mug of tea brewed from local Japanese herbs forgotten in her hands. "Penny for your thoughts, Little Wolf?" Dom whispered close to her ear and took pleasure as her body reacted to his voice. Iris turned around slightly, placing the mug on the nearby table as Dom placed his hands on the railing behind her, envelo

"Daddy, watch out!" But before Dom could duck, a ball of snow flew into his face and then Iris' laugh rang through the chilly morning. "My turn!" Dom laughed louder wiping his face and threatening, "Now, watch out!" He threw the two balls of snow in his big hands, one at each of his girls. Purposefully missing his daughter, making her sweet laugh ring in the crisp morning air. "Mommy, I need more!" Little Marie called out, making Iris temporarily lose concentration and head towards her daughter to create a bunch of little snowballs for her to throw. That's when Dom sneaked behind his wife and masterfully pulled back her neckline to drop a handful of ice down her back, making her shriek and run inside, "Dom! You'll pay for this." "You wanna make snow angels?" Dom offered his daughter who still stood bewildered at what had happened and why had mommy suddenly stopped helping her make more snowballs. She nodded enthusiastically and laid on the snow as Dom joined her and the two str

"Dom, she is too young for this. Wait a few more years." Iris laughed as she read a book and kept watch on baby Marie while her father was doing things nobody expected him to. Ever since the war had been won and peace had been settled. Dominic and Iris chose a secluded place untouched by war or any bad memories, a small cottage beside a private white beach in Brazil, to raise their daughter. Of course, there were times when they had to fly or teleport to a meeting halfway across the world when Freddie or Nora needed them to be present. The Alpha King and Queen could simply not vanish with the little princess. The secret perfectly up-to-date with technology and the magic, basement of the cottage was an example of how Dom and Iris were working from home while giving Marie the childhood that neither of them had. They had settled into this new routine of mundane chores which meant everything to the couple who had seen and suffered so much in their millennia-long lives. Dom had changed

[The semi-smut scene of the patch-up in the cave.] This was the first time a man had looked at her with this hunger and not to harm her but with a need to love her. That was all the motivation either of them needed because they didn't know who began it but with another loud thunder, they were on each other. More like Dom was hoisting Iris by her thighs as she had jumped on him and wrapped her legs around his torso. The patch-up makeout was intense as they kissed each other wanting to drown in the other. Their tongues danced to the wild rhythms of their hearts as their combined shadow danced with fire on the cave walls on the music of the magical storm that was raging outside. Once their lips were kiss-swollen and their lungs could not take the lack of oxygen anymore, they unwillingly separated. But Dom had had enough of staying away and the factors that were trying to pull them apart, so he headed for an attack of kisses and nibbles on her neck making it hard for her to control her

[Dom's dream from the Med-Bay bed after getting rescued from Y's Island and recovering.] Dom outlined the edge of her black lace panties with his teeth as Iris couldn't help but squirm under his ministrations, making Dom stop and look up from his position between her legs and say in his deep sensual voice, "Little wolf, if you don't stay place, these lace panties are not going anywhere tonight!" Iris looked at him doubtfully, "You don't mean that!" Dom sat up straight, revealing his tanned chest that flowed down to his smooth torso ornamented by rigid eight-pack abs and that sexy v-line that made Iris drool. "Try me!" He challenged and Iris was quick to give in, not only because she knew he would do as he said but also because she was too eager to avoid delay. She wanted him and she wanted him soon, so she huffed making her naked breasts jiggle. "Fine!" Dom's bulge in his trousers got more obvious at the show of her hot body lying almost naked on his bed waiting for him to do

Implied Smut. The salty water washed its foam around their feet as their eyes gazed at the mesmerizing sunset. After an exquisite lunch, Iris found herself being led out of the house by Dom and towards the beach. The weather wasn't particularly sunny, but it was perfectly cloudy enough to walk in the not-so-hot sand barefoot and roam around without sunglasses or hats. The salty sea wind blew through their hair and clothes, and Iris felt a sense of euphoria she had always yearned for. Dom couldn't help himself but keep his eyes fixated on his mate. Lady luck had smiled on him, and he couldn't be more grateful. He wanted to provide her with everything she had been missing for centuries. They kept walking silently on the beach, savoring each other's company and the gorgeous beach around them. No exchange of words was needed. Somewhere along the walk, Dom's hand found Iris subtly. She didn't pull it away, relishing in the little skin-on-skin contact they were allowed before the rituals
Under the Dragon's Protection Epilogue
It is said that there are two parts of war. The battlefield and the aftermath. The battle was won. The cost came in the aftermath. Dom along with his family and those of the deceased was the first one to enter the Shifter Cemetery. It was the huge ground where all the shifters who lost their lives to Y's madness were buried after the war. Those who had been recognizable had tombstones, the rest got collective plates with lists of names of those lost in war. There was an empty grave for the innocent Isabella, about whose whereabouts no one had any idea. But Freddie deserved a place to mourn, and Isabella deserved to be remembered like the rest of the innocent victims. Liliana's body had been recovered, but it would've been unfair to all those who died fighting Waai if she had been buried in their ranks. So Dom had placed her in the backyard of his private mansion, where only the close family would be able to visit and remember. Iris still hadn't been able to entirely move past the

[Warning: This chapter contains an account of childbirth. Readers are advised to proceed with caution.] Dominic walked haphazardly through the emergency field hospital that had been set up by the witches to help the wounded in the war. "We need more people, just give the order and the women can come to aid." Nathaniel was trying to keep up with Dom's pace and convince him. "I cannot allow them to be on the battlefield when I promised their men that their women, children, and elderly would be safe at all costs." Dom looked around at his people, some lying motionless on the makeshift cots with missing limbs, some lying on the ground groaning because there was nowhere else to go, awaiting medical and magical help. "I am not asking you to order them to be here or break your promise. Just give the women a choice. Let the ones who volunteer come and help us get these brave people back on their feet. The war isn't over just because Waai is dead." Nathanial was persistent. Dom suddenly st
