151.Bigger chamber

LiaThe tunnel seemed to go on forever and ever, but eventually we were able to reach this inner chamber that led to a bigger chamber. When we stepped into the room, I saw this large, slumbering dragon in the middle of the open-air chamber.It was more than a little terrifying. The sheer size of it was enough to make my heart race. Everyone stepped back, not wanting to make any noise in case we ended up waking it up. What if we woke it up and it just woke up right away?Swallowing, I glanced at Xaveria, who shrugged, pointing to me. She meant that this was my decision and job to wake up the dragon. I lifted my hands, about to light up the room with power, but before I could, the creature’s eyes snapped open.All of us froze. I wasn’t sure what to do. We looked at each other, and then I looked back at the dragon, fearful that something was going to happen.“You,” the dragon said simply.“Yes, me.”I stood tall, staring at it and daring it to throw itself at me.“It’s still trying to wa

152.The power

ColbyThis was so fucking bad.But Lia had a plan.I could see it when she and Matt nodded at each other. He said to us that we had to try to protect Lia. The second he said that to us then I knew what we were going to do. We were going to take care of everything and do our best to protect her.“This is so bad,” Rain whimpered.Jesse shrugged. “We always knew it was going to be bad, Rain, so calm down and keep fighting.”“Keep calm and carry on,” I joked, earning a glare from Matt.This caused me to laugh.“Why are you making jokes at a time like this?” Matt asked, rolling his eyes.I grinned despite the chaos around us. “Because if I don’t laugh, I might start screaming.”Rain groaned. “Honestly? Same.”Lia stood in the center of it all, gripping the stone, her body thrumming with power. She wasn’t afraid. She wasn’t hesitating. She had a plan, and we had to trust her.The dragon roared, shaking the ground beneath us. The shadows swarmed closer, writhing with dark intent.Matt snappe

153. Shifters

MattI was a bit shocked to see the dragon lower its head and not even fight anymore. It sighed.“It seems you have turned my people against me.”Lia exhaled slowly, her gaze steady. “No, what I did was try to stop you from killing them by reaching out to them specifically. I was hopeful that they would listen to reason if they knew the truth, and the fact is that they do understand it. You should allow them to choose their path. Isn’t that the point of free will?”The dragon’s golden eyes darkened with something unreadable. “Free will,” it murmured. “A gift and a curse.”Lia frowned. “Why do you say that?”“Because with free will comes division. Choices lead to conflict, to betrayal, to suffering.” The dragon’s voice was low, rough with age and wisdom. “When my kind ruled, there was order. No uncertainty. No weakness.”Lia shook her head. “That wasn’t an order—it was oppression.”A deep rumble came from the creature’s throat, something like a bitter chuckle. “Perhaps. But it was also

154.Disaster

RainThe walk back to the car was a bit exhausting, but I kept trying to break the ice by inserting some of my jokes.I stretched my arms over my head, letting out a dramatic sigh. “Well, that’s it. Show’s over. No more epic quests, no more near-death experiences. Guess we all just settle down and start knitting now.”Colby gave me a look. “Knitting?”“Yeah. Isn’t that what people do when they retire from adventuring? Start a knitting circle? Maybe pick up gardening?”Lia snorted. “I’d pay money to see you knit.”I grinned. “You’re in luck, omega. I’ve already started on a scarf. It’s a disaster.”Matt pinched the bridge of his nose. “We’re not retiring.”Jesse, arms crossed, muttered, “Couldn’t if we wanted to.”I ignored them, throwing an arm over Colby’s shoulder. “Alright, fine. No knitting. But what about a nice, quiet life? White picket fence, a couple of dogs…” I smirked at Lia. “A dozen pups running around?”She turned red instantly. “Rain.”Colby chuckled. “You’re gonna get y

155.Living is complicated

LiaFinally, we were able to get home. I was so thrilled to be home. Everyone greeted us and later that night, I didn’t sleep. Instead I lay down on my bed and sigh. Simone is on the phone, even if she is just next door.“The Elder Dragon is gone. No crisis, no disaster waiting to happen… it feels weird.”Simone snorted. “Yeah, I’m sure it does seem weird given what has happened to you. I mean, I’m almost shocked at how quiet things are!”“I don’t know how to exist without chaos.”Simone hummed. “Well, you could always fuck your mates.”I nearly dropped my phone. “Simone!”“What? Too soon?”A groan escapes me, causing me to roll my eyes. “I hate you.”Simone laughs. “Come on, you and I both know you don’t hate me.”“Fine, I love you.”She laughed again. “So what is next?”“That’s the problem. I have no clue.”“Sleep? Eat? Take a bath?”“I’m not a stray animal.”“Debatable.”I rolled my eyes. “I need something to focus on.”“Your mates?”I groaned again. “You’re hopeless.”“And you’re

156. Modern society

LiaI should’ve known that even though I was home, things weren’t going to be simple. The elder dragon might’ve been stopped, but we also had a huge problem; dragon shifters were now waking up and feeling very confused over the fact that they were now experiencing this modern world.All the supernatural associations out there were working side by side with some of the dragon shifters that had already woken up to help their fellow dragons integrate into this modern society. The dragons were more than willing to help their fellow shifters, wanting to do whatever they could to help them adjust to this new world.The reason the supernatural associations out there had changed their tune was because I had made a public statement on the internet, calling for people to help their fellow supernatural creatures. It put pressure on them and the spotlight on me, something I never wanted to do.But as my brother Michael said, someone had to do it. If I didn’t do it then who was going to take the p

157.This is chaos

LiaThe previous council meeting went all right but the next one that Rain insisted on paying attention to was more than annoying.In our city, there were a group of dragons that were staying here. A lot of them were all right, being able to try to adjust to our modern world, but some of them were resisting. They didn’t want to conform. Why didn’t they want to conform? I have no fucking idea.Well, I had a bit of an idea. They decided that their way of life they used to live was good enough to continue to live. There was no reason why they should have change, even if everything had changed.I mean, did they have cell phones in their time? No. They didn’t have any of these modern conveniences that we had right now and it was going to be difficult for them to try to get used to it. I honestly wouldn’t want to be in their shoes one bit.But it wasn’t just that.Dragons shifters had been alive at a time when they were at their most power. Other species bowed to them, not wanting to go aga

158. Dragon ambassador

ColbyLife right now was one meeting after another. It wasn’t something any of us wanted to do but what we had to do. It was simply something we needed to accept.As pack leader, I was used to leading so when Lia asked me to come with her to go meet with a dragon ambassador, I was ready. She hadn’t so much as said the words and I was already on my feet, running towards the door.When we got to the city hall building, Lia looked tense. She had narrowed eyes and was glaring at the closed doors.I adjusted my jacket while Lia stood a few feet away, arms crossed, staring off like she could already hear the argument waiting for us on the other side of those doors."You look thrilled," I said.She let out a short, humorless laugh. "Oh yeah. Can’t wait to walk into another room full of people who don’t trust each other and somehow convince them to work together."I wished I had a good sense of humor like Rain. Now I did have a pretty good sense of humor, to an extent, but Rain was the king o

159.Coaching job

MattThe more involved Lia got in this whole bullshit, the more annoyed I became. It had only been a week since she started working with this dragon ambassador and I was feeling beyond jealous.I hadn’t felt jealous over Lia for a long time now and I shouldn’t suddenly. We were fully mated now and had been for a while. No one else could lay a claim on Lia because she was with her four fated mates. Nothing was going to change that.Yet I was still jealous.Today I started my coaching job, but I was just sitting here trying to shove this jealousy to the side and get a grip over my emotions.Jesse was sitting here with me, staring. He was doing his own thing—on some committee. I was trying to keep a distance from the whole political bullshit so the less Jesse, Lia, and Colby told me the better.Rugby was the world I knew and loved. It was the world I wanted to stay in which was why I decided to go back to coaching as quick as I did."Alright," he finally said, setting his mug down. "Spit

160. Protestors

LiaWhen life was starting to get less complicated, life threw a curveball. I show up to this welcoming party trying to help introduce dragons to the neighborhood. Everything is going fine. They are talking to everyone and trying to do their best to integrate into society.But then things started to get complicated. It started with one person showing up with a sign and then someone else showing up with another.There were fucking protestors here.Actual protestors.It was hard to believe that these people had made these signs and then drove all the way out here. They were walking around with these stupid signs that had stupid phrases, saying that dragons shouldn’t be allowed in our neighborhood let alone our city after what they did.I pinched the bridge of my nose, unable to believe this was happening.Then, just to be sure, I pinched my cheek. It hurt, causing me to cry out in pain.Yes, this was real. I was really seeing this right now and no amount of denial was going to change th
