Chapter 41

My stomach did a flip-flop. Even though I denied this submissive behavior, the command in Tohr's voice made me quiver, and it had very little to do with fear. I slowly walked towards him, feeling the air growing heavier as I stepped closer and closer to him. I stopped a few feet away and just watch him, waiting anxiously.Tohr was not willing to let even that much distance between us. He moved closer then circled me like a vulture around its prey. He leaned in and sniffed the back of my neck. He growled again, a sound of displeasure if I had ever heard one."You smell of another man, girl," he growled. "Strip." I gasped in shock. "What?!" "You smell of another man," he snapped even angrier. "How? Why? What? I don't understand what's going on," I admitted. "You're my Mate. My mate should never smell of anyone but me. Should never be held by another but me. It took all my control not to kill your brother on the spot. And the only reason why I didn't was that he is your brother. But i

He moved further down until those teasing lips found one hard nipple. His tongue licked and teased the overly sensitive bud. My back arched wantonly, my body silently begging him for more. He chuckled softly, bringing me out of my stupor for a moment, and I realized that I wasn't really being silent at all. My pleas were loud whimpers, and my nails dug into his wrists as I tried to break free so I could force his head down further on my aching nipple. He took pity on me and latched on to the hard nub sucking it deep into his mouth, licking, nibbling, biting hard only to soothe the sharp pain with a quick swipe of his tongue. I was drowning in the fire, and even the slick leather rubbing against my clit was not enough to dowse it. "Oh god… please," I whimpered. "Yess, little one. I want you to hear you come," he whispered against my chest. "More… oh god, please, please, more," I pleaded.He transferred my wrists to one giant hand, and the other slid down my body, sending goosebumps

"Good girl," he whispered against my thigh, pressing a soft kiss to the smooth skin.The pride and happiness in his voice made my pounding heart warm and melt behind my ribs. I couldn't think clearly through my oxygen-starved brain. Yet, if I could have, I would have been horrified at how easily I had submitted to his demands or, hell, how easily I had begged for everything he had done to me. However, I felt content, and the heat that was threatening to boil under my skin since I had met him was nothing more than a simmer. It was still there, though it had alleviated a bit. That also should have made me worry as well. However, I was simply happy it was easier to manage.Tohr crawled up and covered me with his body as he took my panting mouth in a deep kiss.-I can't wait until the day I can claim you. You may not be ready, but your body is begging for more. - He whispered as he continued to plunder my mouth.His words were like a dash of cold water on me. A slight panic rose, and he pu

"He wants you… badly."Tohr's words continued to echo in my head long after that night was over. His words drifted off to sleep with me, and they were the first thing that went through my head when I woke up.I had mixed emotions when I found him gone when I woke up. A part of me wished I could have woken up in his arms. However, I was also glad that I was alone and able to think things through. My mind was so chaotic that I hadn't even paid attention as the ladies' maid chatting with each other and helped me get ready. I didn't argue with them, didn't do anything to help them or hinder them. I was too busy thinking about Tohr's words and trying to let them settle in. They still sent a shiver down my spine even now. And it wasn't all fear; in fact, it wasn't even mostly fear. Intrigue, curiosity, and yes, even arousal. Only a truly cold and heartless woman would not want a man like Tohr and to know that both he and his dragon desired me? That just drove me even more crazy. Now that I

Chapter 45

The thrill of sneaking around once more did have my heart racing again. I tuned into the guard's conversation, trying to figure out where they were going. It was a bit broken in translation, but a few words gave me the jest of it. They were speaking about some woman they had met. I could have sworn I heard something along the lines of 'together laid' yet that didn't make sense, at first until I realized I was mistaking the context. It was the pure masculine chuckle that gave the truth away. It was the laugh of a male boasting about his exploits. Oh. I thought, feeling my face flush as I realized they were talking about a sexual conquest. How were these people having sex of any sort if it leads to a bonding? I wondered absently as I heard them enter a door on the other side of the wall I was hiding behind. As soon as I heard it click shut, I hurried down the steps on the side of the buildings. It circled the structure until ending in a large courtyard on the far side of the castle tha

My eyes narrowed on her face, and a wicked smile crossed my own. I was sincerely going to enjoy this. Reaching up, I grabbed her hair, mimicking the hold that she had on mine. My smile widened at the look of surprise on her face moments before I slammed my forehead into her nose hearing, the fragile bone break with immense satisfaction. She immediately let me go to grab her nose. I kicked the back of her knees, dropping her in front of me. My smile was all she saw now that she was looking up at me."Never… underestimate a redhead, bitch," I sneered before shoving her completely to the ground. The other girls stepped away from me to circle their leader trying to make sure she was okay. They helped her up and, giving me a scathing look, hurried her away.I watched them leave with a smirk on my face, feeling rather proud of myself. "Oh, wow!" a voice popped up from behind me. I turned around, fully expecting another fight on my hands. Only to find a very short woman standing a few fe

I winced as the burst of translation raced through my head. He wanted me to move my ass so he could see the new whore, sex-toy, and a dozen other nasty words. I didn't quite pick the right word that he was trying to use. But the way that Ethallia turned pale and began to shake, I knew she had."Does he mean…" her voice trailed off.My eyes closed at the terror that I can feel coming from her. "They are speaking of…" I searched my mind trying to remember the word the guards had said earlier. "Lay with you."She immediately shrunk back a bit and shook her head in denial. "No, no, that can't be true. They wouldn't do that to me," she denied quietly. "My family wouldn't do that!"A cloth flashed in front of my face letting me know that one of the men had gotten brave and decided he was just going to "choose" me. Spinning towards him, I shoved Ethallia behind me and looked towards him to the stained cloth up to the guy with absolute disgust."What am I expected to do with that?" I asked in

To make matters worse was my mind was already leaning towards the bonding. My body was begging for it. Now that I was actively thinking about it the yearning for it was growing. Yet, something was holding me back, and I was slowly beginning to understand what it was. I could not handle or condone the way women were treated here. I hated the idea that I was considered less important than the males here. I was a smart, strong, and fully capable of making my own decisions. It grated on my nerves that they were wanting to tell me what to do. The Draygons in the training ring had made it abundantly clear what they thought of me, of the females in general. It was extremely hard to want to be with someone who couldn't see my worth. Though Tohr had mostly treated me with respect, even if he was bossy, I still had to refuse the bonding with him for now. I just couldn't do it. Treddian's led us inside the castle and into the large gathering area with the thrones. Tohr sat on his high-backed go

The room murmured as the woman rose, her eyes wet and she looked at me gratefully."Thank you, thank you, my Queen. Thank you," she said and reached for me."Call me, Lady Mara," I insisted quietly, feeling more confident with that title.I held my hand out to her embracing her in the hug that Erik taught me, our foreheads touching."You're welcome. What is your name?"She squeezed my forearms and began to cry some more."I am Synne," she replied. "I am so sorry... so sorry for daring to sit in your throne.""Enough with that. Go and clean up. Then come back. I will help you," I told Synne in broken Draygonian, hoping she would understand my intent.She nodded and squeezed my forearms once more than left the room. The entire entourage that was sitting around watching the proceedings stood eerily silent as they watched the woman leave.I felt Tohr step up behind me. "My little fyre. I am happy to see you are finally accepting our bonding. Though we will have to work on you challenging m

He took my arm and led me to our room. My anxious and worried mind, running over every possibility until I felt exhausted just from the exercise.The tension in his back made his anger at my 'disobedience' very evident. I was anxious about whatever he was planning and quite confused about why I was allowing him to do it anyway. Maybe, it was the twinge of guilt I was feeling for not obeying. Which was stupid. I was my own person! I didn't have to feel guilty about my decision.Except…"Except you knew the reason I asked you to stay with Nerrian until someone came to get you. We have to make sure you are safe," Tohr answered, staring at me intensely.I could see the shadow of worry in his eyes, and that made the guilt grow until it ate away at my stomach."Yes, that is the reason for the punishment, my little fire. To relieve you of the feelings of guilt and so maybe, just maybe, you'll think twice about disobeying me next time," he explained with a dark look.His words hit me hard and
