All Chapters of Love Is Never Old: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Drake had stayed away from home. Especially now that he knew she would never be his. He knew it was happening today and fought to stay away, but he was close enough. He landed and shifted back and walked through the woods, trying to keep his mind off it. He was dozing off a bit when a sudden, sharp pain vibrated through him. It felt like he had been shot. He looked down and saw no blood, nor a wound. He hurt bad enough for one to be there. As he pondered this, he heard her voice. She called out to him and in an instant, knew something happened to her. He wasted no time as he shifted and took flight. Flying as fast as his wings would go. Drake got home in time to see Mage and one of the Ascendants leaving. He grew paler as he got closer to his home. Will and Jake wer

Drake held her close and was almost afraid to let her go. He took in her scent and he was afraid to believe she was here. Doubt plagued him as he thought she wouldn’t have long. She must have heard his thoughts. She separated them and looked deep into his blue eyes,“I’m okay and yes, I am here.”He wrapped her tight against him again and rested his head on top of hers. She pushed away from him and turned to Able. “Go home. Tell my uncle what has happened.”

She was almost at Rafe’s cage when the humans showed up. She was too proud to play an innocent. Rafe saw it all over her face. He convinced the guard to let him out when the humans started to attack. She and the others fought hard, some shifting in the fight.When Aurora shifted, though, the humans’ attention was on her and she knew they were there for her. She took off full speed into the woods. It was hard and easy at the same time with the snow on the ground. She turned to see how far they were and she was shot. She went down and was starting to fade. She heard rantings from a woman and the humans ran. She called out for Drake as the blackness consumed her.

Aurora sat on the bed while Drake slept. She knew she had things to take care of, but she was afraid to leave him again. She stood and began to get dressed when she heard his deep, husky voice."You are always running out on me.""Technically, you ran out last time.""True.""But I understand why.""Come back to bed. It can wait.""Drake?""I'm serious. Talking to your uncle can wait. Going back to the pack can wait and me talking to my father about my alpha ceremony can wait."She smiled and laid back down while only wearing a shirt. He pulled her close to him and snuggled his face into the crook of her neck as she settled next to him. This was by far her favorite spot; in his arms. She was a lot of magical and powerful things, but with him, she was his mate and just a woman. She liked that most of all and he knew it.Drake knew she had a million things running through her mind, but he wanted to ease the stress and the

Aurora woke first the next day and saw Drake still sound asleep. She got up out f bed and cleaned herself up and dressed and headed outside. The pack greeted her accordingly and she walked over to the center of town and inspected everything. Then she walked a ways to where the border was and a few of her patrol wolves saw her and joined her. Josh was there and was named her beta and Aveline and Blake were also there. Josh walked up to her and spoke first."What's on your mind, little wolf?""Moving.""Moving?""Once Drake and I are mated, we want to alpha both of our clans separately but stay together.""How is that going to work?""Building a new packhouse sort to speak. Half of it will be the wolves and the other half the dragons. Then, building new town around the packhouse.""Half wolf and half dragon.""Yes. Having the dragons build on their side and wolves on ours. That way we are together yet still separated.""Wh
