Semua Bab Dragon's mate: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Henry made sure that Elizabeth closed the door of the basement before he went outside. While they were having breakfast, he heard wolves howling in close distance, and he had a feeling that those were not regular wolves. Although wolf packs were known to pass through this region from time to time, he didn’t want to take any risk with Elizabeth in the house. When after a couple of minutes, five wolve

Henry laid on the ground in front of Elizabeth to make his gigantic body accessible for her to climb onto. In his dragon form, his every feeling and emotion was amplified so many times... her acceptance of him like this brought him to his heaven. Elizabeth on, the other hand, was thinking about how she didn’t know what she did to deserve this. She was living a real-life fairytale, and this beast in

The first half an hour of their trip passed in silence. Henry was focused on the wavy road, and Elizabeth admired the landscapes they passed by. It was almost dusk, and she couldn’t see the sun anymore. It was hidden behind the mountain now. “Sooo,” she started. “Why did we leave in such a rush?” she pressed again. Henry sighed, and it looked like he doesn’t want to answer but still spoke reluctantly: “Some 50 years ago, there was a war in the supernatural world... many of the exiled wolves from all around the States gathered intending to destroy the system that exists and which packs live by.

I want to take you on a proper date tonight,” his lips turned upwards. “Oh, ok, sure. I’d like that.” She smiled. Henry went to his office and came back within a minute. Taking her hand, he turned her palm upwards and put something cold i

“Love, what is it?” Henry was worried. He didn’t like her facial expression at all.

Putting his hands on her shoulders, he turned her around and asked again if she is ok. Elizabeth gave him his phone wordlessly.
